OOM: TUESDAY 16TH SEPTEMBER

Those are pearls that were his eyes.

- T.S. ELIOT, 'THE WASTE LAND'

Today has not been a very good day, but eight has never been one of Sun's lucky numbers. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

She does not know if she likes these caves. They are dark and she misses the stars overhead and the sound of the waves lapping against the shore. But Jin is her husband and for now, she does as he asks. For now, she owes him that much. Nightgown in hand, she steps through the rock opening and does a double-take, and then another: where is this place?

With the nightgown clutched protectively to her chest she steps forward, brows furrowed, eyes darting back and forth. There is no comfort in the location or in the sudden profusion of company.

"Jin-Soo? [Help me.]"

But Jin is not here, and he cannot help her. Her hand goes to the top button of her sweater; she makes sure it's fastened.

"[Excuse me... where are we? What is this place?]"

OOM: The World We Live In.

Fury is out back doing sit-ups. Rather more specifically he's got his legs hooked over a tree-branch and is doing sit-ups from that position, curling up toward the sky until crossed arms touch his knees and then relaxing until his head is again pointed at the ground. His sword is hung within easy reach of him, and there are several knives strapped to visible portions of his body.

He has a modern shirt draped near his sword, as purple as his armor, but his boots and trews are proper garments for a man of his time and place. He only wears modern clothing when he must.

Under ordinary circumstances Annie would have posted a notice about the full moon back on the fourteenth through the sixteenth, but things have been so busy back in Yorkshire that she simply hasn't had the time to tend to Milliways as well. Thus, her first arrival in the Bar post-moon includes a quick trip to the notice board and a glance into the infirmary to see if anyone's been eaten or bitten.

She'll get it right next time. Right now, she's just finding a seat and taking a load off for a bit.

Single Men of Milliways
(Or men in open relationships)
(Or men seeking an affair)
(You get the picture...)

Princess of Darkness seeks healthy human male, objective: reproduction. Can offer depraved debauchery, sin-filled carnality and walks on the beach. No need to participate on rearing or education of children. Monetary compensation also possible.

Serious inquires only.
(Or inquires for random debauchery too)

Look for the Devil, Princess of Darkness, Angel of the Abyss, in room 616.

There are no battle sounds outside the Medic's door this time as he enters the Bar. If the condition of his normally-neat blue lab coat is anything to go by, this is probably because today's fighting's already over for the day. "Excuse me," he says to the nearest wait-rat. "But vould you be so kind as to bring me a few towels, a bottle of Lysol, und a bowl of water? Und my usual beer, it's been a long day."

When the rat scampers off he settles down at the table and starts rubbing the worst of the ick off his gloves with a convenient napkin.

Mel got a note with her lunch.

She read it. She read it again.

Then she wrote a ( reply )

The hair, the axe, the Security badge and cheese-fondue-for-one can now be found at her usual central table, where the Slayer is kicking back and wondering if Steph would know who he is.

Quiz time, Milliways! What does an Alien Experiment Boy do after popping in and out of existence, saving the world with his Mum and friends (again), and attempting to explain a bit about aliens etc. to one of said friend's dad he drags her off for a private chat?

Right!

He works on equations. Possibly while worrying a bit, too. Distractions would likely be appreciated.

{Mun will be around for about 30 minutes before off to choir, but shall be back 6-6:30ish EST for futher play.}

Will's outside at the archery range, its a good thing to do as he thinks about what maybe coming this tax time.

Also he's worrying about Guppy though at least Kate's doing better.

Lorne's getting kind of fond of being asked to fill in, so when that oh-so-familiar napkin pops up as he settles into his barstool, he just smiles and gives Bar an affectionate pat before moving around to the other side and picking up the specials board.

Specials

Terminator Stout
Old Chub
Athosian spiced ale
Sweetwater Motor Boat

There's a theme of sorts, but it pretty much only makes sense to Lorne.

"God," mutters the Arsenal-shirt-wearing teenager who storms through the front door. "Junior bloody M--"

Oh. This isn't his and Bruce's room at the Zoo.

It's a bar.

It's a very familiar-looking bar.

It's--

"Milliways!"

James Adams is two and a half years older than he was when he last saw this place. Bigger, taller, smarter. But he still remembers how to get a Coke from Bar, and that people-watching at the end of the universe is infinitely more interesting than in the local shopping centre.

Alyx Vance is back in the Bar, sipping a milkshake and tinkering with her Lego robot. This is nothing unusual, for her.

The "I ♥ NY" T-shirt, on the other hand, is a new addition.

Current Mood: cheerful

Harvey Dent is in a bad mood.

It has less to do with the puppet and more to do with the mun being that the mun has intense hatred occasionally for her chosen profession and looks for the occasional scapegoat. So Harvey is...writing a check for room and board and hoping that his monthly "Government Employee" (because of course the public service workers of Gotham City get paid monthly!) is deposited shortly.

True to form however, bar replies with a Note deposited directly atop his check.

Harvey stares at it for a few minutes before-

"...I don't suppose you can duplicate yourself? Be useful for the DA's office."

His response, desposited directly on Mel's note. No. Sorry..

"worth a try."

In a better mood now, he orders a coke and scans the bar, buying himself a moment before going to look for this security person.

You could interrupt him, or help him out.

No, you're not seeing double. There really are two gasmasked faces in the room.

One is the little boy. The other is this dark-haired adult male. Beyond that, the mask obscures all other features.

Those who know him, though, will recognize Gaius Baltar's voice when he asks passersby, "Are you my mummy?"

After his bartending shift, Lorne's feeling a bit...moody.

And whenever he's feeling something he doesn't want to feel, he curls up in an armchair and whips out the sketchbook.

Today, there are colored pencils. Time to tackle the Window again.

Billy's out by the lake, playing a game of tag with his three Nobody bodyguards. They're faster than he is, of course, but he's playing a good game.

Come join them?

guppy_sandhu

Guppy feels a bit less sore today; he thinks it would be best to make a move back into the riot tomorrow or the day after, depending on how he feels.

He's currently having a glass of water and staring out the observation window, just thinking, hoping his home city can survive.
