boston_bruiserThe wire's been quiet. That's what the intel geeks say, anyway - Kalifa's talking, but most of it's in code, and only to other chump-change goons.
The relevant part - relevant to Voodoo, anyways - is that they have no targets yet. Nobody to kill, nothing to blow up. Nothing to do but train and stand by to stand by.
PT was a pack run at 0400 finished up with a bodyweight circuit at the gym and a speedshoot at the target range. So he's currently in a booth, feet propped up on the table and bored out of his skull.
Possibly this will be a hazard later on. Right now it's just manifesting itself as him flicking peanut shells at The Window, trying to land a bullseye on the big swirly thingamahjig in the middle.
[OOC: I'm in like a billion jillion threads and OOMs combined with my four boys, and finals are coming up - needless to say, if you tag, I'll have to beg instaslows, but I'll try to get back to you inside of 24 hours.]

Nov. 23rd, 2013 02:20 pmno_vampires_plzThis afternoon we find a purple pony curled up in a corner booth, engrossed in what appears to be a very large, very old, very boring tome on magical history.
We say 'appears' because, if you were to read over her shoulder, you'd find she's hiding a comic book inside the larger text.
The Doctor Whooves 50th Anniversary Spectacular just came out today.
[ooc: Since today is both the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who and the season premiere of MLP:FiM, I thought I'd do an EP combining both! Don't worry, neither one will be spoiled herein.]

Nov. 23rd, 2013 05:05 pmfreemade_mantis[OOM: Upstairs, a quiet moment with a hot-oil rubdown and some science programs. Yeah, that's about it. Millitimed to shortly after Jack's last scene upstairs; where does the time go?]

And that's why, when Pyrrha carries Egil down to the bar tonight, he's dressed as an avocado.
Single-foster-motherhood isn't easy, but she's managing.
"So there was Egil, on the deck of the pirate ship Cavendish, and the pirate-monkey captain--she was fierce, with a bright blue coat with lots of shiny buttons--she said to him, 'You've come here to steal our treasure, haven't you?' But Egil said 'No, I was playing on the beach and this giant eagle stole my ball, and I swam for days and I followed it here and I saw the eagle drop it on the deck of your ship. That's all I came for.' And the pirate-monkey captain thought about it, and she said 'Okay, you can have it back. But you've got to serve on my crew for a whole year first, so we know you're not just here as a spy and--'"
Well, if you want your baby to learn to talk, give it to someone who likes to talk.
"Let's get us some ice cream, huh, puppy? I'm really hungry all of a sudden."
Totally botherable.

Nov. 23rd, 2013 07:09 pmnever_shall_yieldJavert is shivering when he comes into the bar tonight. He is still looking after the horse, but because he works all day, it is done before dawn and after dark. He has no winter coat, and refuses to buy one for the meagre hours he spends out of doors now. Still. It is cold, and he is cold, and as it has been a long day, he allows himself a hot coffee.
It comes next to a pot of liverwurst. And although this is surprising, it is not as frown-inducing as the note that comes with it. He does not know what to think about it - it feels like someone is having a joke at his expense. Two someone's. And that is disappointing in a way he cannot quite define.
He retreats to his booth to think about it, and warm up.
[OOC:Will likely be sporadic until after Doctor Who, but Post is open until Wednesday or so! <3]

Nov. 23rd, 2013 07:30 pmclaudiometerThere's a shimmer of shiny gold nonsense by the door, followed by Joshua appearing - in what appears to be a Civil War officer's uniform (Union, as it happens). "That's Whovians, you idiots!" he calls over his shoulder. "Or maybe Wellsians... fuck. This isn't a tent."
Not long after, he's followed in (minus shiny gold nonsense) by Claudia... who's decked out in one ridiculous hoop skirt and a black wig.
"...Really? What, am I supposed to have the vapors now or something?"
"Well, I do happen to have some smelling salts if you feel so inclined," Helena, who's coming in directly behind Claudia, says (she's pulling off the hoop-skirt look rather well, all told).
"No thanks. But I am ditching this stupid wig."
(OOC: Catch one or more, just let us know who you want!)

Nov. 23rd, 2013 07:46 pm1stwitnessFinally ready to leave, with a new sword purchased from Teja, Ichabod slips quietly out through the door.
Some time later, but perhaps not as much time as has passed on the other side of the door, it opens again onto a generic 21st century motel room, and he walks wearily through.
Even having walked through his cave again, he's clean (because he fell in a river), but he looks somehow even more haunted or shell-shocked than he did on first arriving, and he heads straight for the fireplace.
