SUBJECT: Cleanup Recruiting Drive
Mar. 13th, 2012 09:48 amno_vampires_plzThere's a large poster on the bulletin board.
There's also a large post on the virtual bulletin board.
They both say the same thing, give or take a word or two.
CURRENT crepuscularScintillation [CCS] RIGHT NOW opened memo on board MAGICAL MYSTERY BAR VIRTUAL BULLETIN BOARD
CCS: Attention, residents and patrons of Milliways: the Milliways cleanup effort needs YOU!
CCS: While the main bar area is mostly restored, other parts of the building are in desperate need of attention. These include the rental rooms, the library, the gymnasium, and the greenhouse by the lake, not to mention the landscaping by the lake itself. Cleanup is underway, but requires morehorsepower manpower than we currently have.
CCS: As Official Cleanup Organizer, I call on you, the patrons, to do your part to help with the cleanup effort. If you can plant new grass, mend a broken window, patch a hole in a wall, reinforce a splintered support beam, or even just push a broom or mop a floor, we need your help!
CCS: Compensation is possible but must be negotiated with the head bartender, Sallie Reynolds.
CCS: If you're interested, respond here, leave a note for me with Bar, or look for the purple unicorn. I'll be here all day.
CCS: Together, we can make Milliways whole again.
CCS: Signed, Twilight Sparkle
[ooc: Respond in person or via T-Minus, whichever floats your boat. Open forever.]

Mar. 13th, 2012 10:08 amluvs_yogurtAfter sleeping off the apocalypse, Michael is reluctant to return to Milliways even after he notices the door has returned without the warning notice on it. Ultimately though, the bar is a much needed escape from the reality of Miami and everything he doesn't want to be dealing with.
Less than a week after noticing the door again, Michael shows up at Carlito's after closing (time being relative at the end of the universe... not so much in Florida) and steps through. He knows it's running away, and that people that run away get caught... but it can't be worse than spending the night alone at the loft with the knowledge that whoever burned him was breathing down his neck.
The bar doesn't look too bad, considering when he evacuated it was falling apart. For the most part everyone seems to be getting back to their routine - and he's more than happy to join in. After scoping out the room, he settles into his favorite stool at the end of the bar and orders up a bottle of beer and a french vanilla yogurt.
It's good to be back.
[ooc: Bringing Michael back around after a bit of a flaky run in other places... hoping to be more active than before and maybe make some connections and give Michael a distraction from his reality. Open to anyone interested, naturally.]

The front door opens up not as a door would, but as a proper portal to another world would. Well, by someone's definition of proper. The redhead with sun-kissed skin that crosses over the threshold stares at the bar and the bar's patrons in disbelief and bewilderment.
"... no ... nononono ..."
She bolts for the back door, pushing patrons and wait staff aside. Outside, she sees the red sky is gone. She sees the snow is gone. She sees, she smells, she feels the spring is at the threshold, waiting to be invited in.
( outside, things happen )
After 27 minutes, it dies down. There is a charred skeleton at the bottom of the crater, but there is life. Still. Too exhausted to fight her own existence, ███████ just lets the powers that be that have been keeping her alive for thousands of years work to bring her body, her prison, back from the brink. Trapped in a cage of charred bone, her heart pumps and sends out veins and arteries out to find what is still salvageable.
She's going to need a day or two to recover from her temper tantrum.
[OOC:reactions, maybe an interruption or two welcome and millitimed before Apollo, but mostly plotlocked.]

Mar. 13th, 2012 06:18 pmpuckishlyThe trouble with posing as Havelock's manservant, Puck has found, is that he has to actually be his servant-- in public, at least. While initially diverting and kinky enough, the game quickly lost its savor.
Freaking Grand Sneer. Freaking Lord Whatshisface, making inquiries into who killed his predecessor (spoiler alert it was Havelock) and necessitating that they go off on this junket in the first place.
Fortunately, Havelock-- being the gentleman he is-- agreed to a compromise.
When Puck appears behind the bar this evening, he is dressed in the style of a young Morporkian Gentleman of Breeding-- which is to say, in a little more frill than is strictly necessary. A magenta cravat appears to be heavily implicated in the proceedings.
"I say," he exclaims, "how positively sporting of you, bar old girl! I'll get right to it, shall I?"

Mar. 13th, 2012 07:13 pmuntiedtheknotsThe bar may still need some cleaning up, but it's here and so are its patrons, and for that Artemis is grateful.
So she's trying not to take it too personally when it feels like the one person she hasn't seen since the almost apocalypse is the person she wants to see most.
She scrounges up a bar napkin and a sharpie; moments later, the following is tacked to the notice board:
HAVE YOU SEEN PAUL AVERY?
If so, please contact Artemis. (Yes, that one.)
Now there's nothing to do but wait patiently(-ish). Artemis takes a seat at the bar, swiveling slightly back and forth on her stool as she watches the room.

Mar. 13th, 2012 08:14 pmbprd_agent_redThe front door opens, and a conversation drifts inside.
"Some more tuna?"
"No, no thank you."
"How about salmon? I've got plenty of that."
"Mmm, no, that is alright."
"I think Manning might have some caviar somewhere. I can turn his office upside down if you'd like some of that."
"No thank you, amigo, I am completely stuffed."
"Oh. Okay."
"But... I could use a drink."
"Yeah? Well, let's go then."
Enter two patrons; one, a big tall red guy (sans-trenchcoat for once), and sitting on his shoulder, an orange cat in boots, hat and cape.
The pair head straight for the bar. Red takes a seat at the counter, and Puss gives a cheerful greeting to Bar, happy that she made it through the chaos okay.
"Beer."
"Leche, por favor."
[ooc: Well, I reckon it had to happen. Two pups, one mun, tag one or both.]

"♫ High-density woman
♫ Small package packing so much punch
♫ High-density woman
♫ You got my number and it's yours to crunch..."
He's in a better mood than he has been at any time since the Allpocalypse began. Three guesses why, and the first two don't count.

Mar. 13th, 2012 10:00 pmaaaaaaaagh_skyToday Knight-Captain Colvin gave Ellen an old but serviceable bound volume of the prayers and meditations most commonly invoked by the Brotherhood of Steel. They're from quite a lot of different sources and traditions, even if most of them have a similar sort of focus, and they're the kind of thing best studied in relative quiet. Ellen took her copy and headed upstairs to her room, rather than try to find a place in the Citadel to read them.
Someone in the Bar, somewhere, took notice of how badly many of the upstairs rooms were damaged, and swapped a few of them out, replacing them with... other rooms. Not all of them, just some of them. Not the patrons' property within them, either- just the beds, and the rugs, and the furnishings, and everything else that belongs to Milliways. You know. Until the repairs were done and the old rooms could come back to function.
Of course, these two things were going to collide eventually.
"What in the name of John Henry Eden happened to my room???" wails Ellen as she comes charging down the stairs.
[OOC: Ellen's room has been temporarily swapped out with a room from the Madonna Inn, in San Luis Obispo, CA. So have several others. Since there's quite a few rooms upstairs, this may or may not have happened to any given room; why not have a look at the rest of what the Madonna has to offer and see if your pup deserves a moment or three of o__O ?]

Mar. 13th, 2012 10:26 pmscots_wolfUrquhart is quite happy today. Several of favourite people are around again, he's got the dog with him, spring is coming, and he's got some ideas for the next dinner, and drinks he wants to try. He his walking over the side of the big glen rising over the buildings that represents the outside of Milliways in this area (but is not, as such, the actual outside of the actual place), whistling quietly to himself as he walks.
Even Teja is content. He's sitting in front of the forge building, working on a list of weapons that he's working on. The great sword -- yes, he can cross that off, it's Doc's. And he gave Kate the sahs he meant her to have. Ahh, Kate -- what a remarkable woman! She could have been one of his people, easily. With people that live in America, though, one may not tell what their ancestors are. But still, she may be one of those in spirit. Just like William -- whose little cat he is holding on his arm while he is writing. There is well-watered wine on his table, and milk, for when the kitten wakes.

Mar. 13th, 2012 11:02 pmreallyaduckDuck has no idea that anything has changed in the bar since the last time she was here.
(. . . she also has no idea how long it's been since the last time she was here. There are benefits to living in a fairy-tale town that works on timeless fairy-tale time.)
All that's on her mind is the fact that she's actually made it to every class on time today, and she didn't even get yelled at for daydreaming once (mostly thanks to Pique poking her just in time, but still) and that's super exciting. She's practically bouncing as she heads in. She will totally get to try toe shoes soon! IT'S GONNA BE AWESOME.
