[open] woah so serious

Who: Everybody!
When: 9 July (IC)
Where: The Sanctuary
What: A follow up to this! Citywide discussion log.
Rating/Warning: None so far! (Please let me know if things should be changed!)

[ the morning of the 9th, everybody should receive a text ]

Hi! I've updated the timeline summarising the recent events here in the colony. Check it out if you have the time, and let me know if there's anything you'd like to contribute!

Also, pizza party later at the Sanctuary. Be there at around 5! There's free food and drinks for everybody. :)

-- Athena Cykes





[ as promised, there's pizza boxes everywhere in the Sanctuary, and one of the tables has an array of drinks being served. there's soda, water, juice, and but nothing alcoholic! this is a serious event, after all, so let's try not to get drunk right now… ah. . . and don't forget to leave your cerevices by the door! this is a ceres-free environment after all.

once enough people are around and seated comfortably, athena tries to call everybody's attention by clapping her hands and yelling OBJECTION! really loudly. and we all know how loud she can be. . . so that's definitely one objective done. ]


So, I guess it's time to talk about that post on the network by that anonymous robot-looking thing. For those who just arrived, this is what I'm talking about. [ and with that, she clicks on a button on the remote control she's holding, and by one of the walls, the text in the said post will be projected. ]

Should we trust that anonymous poster, or should we trust CERES? I doubt there's anybody here who wants to trust CERES of all-- [ well, CERES is not a people, so she just waves a hand dismissively to finish her statement. ] Especially not after all those robots came in and tried to replace the originals.

I think… I want to trust Mosley, though. But nobody here has to share the same sentiment. I don't know much about him, and I'm just following my gut feeling, but-- [ she shakes her head. she can just talk about this further when prodded. she should be providing facts right now, not her opinion. ]

The moment upon arriving in the colony, we were fed information that the Flamines consumed our worlds - but we all know that's not true, either. After all, there are people here who have been able to go back home for a few days. From most of our experience with the Flamines, they're after CERES too, but at the same time, they've been working together. Or they used to, anyway. For those who don't know, the ocular implants we have are by the Flamine Federation. But now, the Flamines are after CERES because they have a debt to pay.

[ she glances around the room now, trying to look at everybody in the eye. ]

Tellus, in this case, are the following parties: The Bridge, and the four "Gods". [ air quotes included. ] Maris, Caeli, Occidi, and Ardeo. The Bridge was once held captive by CERES, and she was released by some people here. To thank them for what they did, The Bridge brought us to the jungle—her "home" and let us stay there for about a week or so. It wasn't exactly the best experience, but there aren't a lot good experiences here in the first place.

I could talk more about the parties in this post if asked, but for now, I want all of us to decide what to do with this announcement. I'd like to investigate all these parties, if possible, including Occidi, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Information and facts are our best weapon right now, after all.

So, if anybody else has something to say about all this, feel free. The floor is yours. And if there's anything you can offer, or if you know anything else, please share it with everybody. I know there's not any information I know that I would hide from anybody here.

[ awkwardly, she just shuffles away and takes a seat on one of the nearest sofas, hoping somebody would speak up and give their two cents. ]

Of course! I mean, you only get to be kid just once so you better enjoy it while you can!

[Then she just stared right back at him] But that still doesn't mean you can take the kid out of you! And it kind of looks like you haven't.
fishyoldman: (LOVE SHOT)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-21 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, one of the awful things about getting older is that lots of us adults forget how to have fun. [He drops his voice to a conspiratorial whisper, like he's afraid any nearby adults might overhear their super secret conversation. Then, he adds brightly:]

The trick is to never forget to kick back and have a good time! Otherwise, you're in for a pretty boring ride.
meowbel: (Bonamama)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-22 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Try telling that to my brother, he's way too serious and needs to have fun! Otherwise, he's just being a Mr Boring Pants and probably will when he grows up!

[But she didn't take it seriously. She just kept on giggling before returning that low whisper right back. In fact, she started leaning closer as if to make the secret even more secretive]
fishyoldman: (SERPENT)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-22 09:23 am (UTC)(link)
Then you'd better straighten him out and help him have fun, before it's too late! 'Specially in a gloomy place like this.

[He hasn't been here long, but Raven already figures that Cerealia is not exactly... kid-friendly. Not that his world was either, but here it seems a lot more discriminate.]
meowbel: (Galaxy)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-22 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh trust me, I plan to! Don't know how long you been here but...

[Then she gave a shudder]

Not exactly the most happiest place on Earth. Or something. Or wherever this place is suppose to be.
fishyoldman: (ARRIVEDERCI)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-22 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, yeah. I just got here, but I'm already getting that vibe big time, kid.

[It helps that he already skimmed through the timeline of events that was oh-so-helpfully distributed when he arrived. That, on top of this meeting and what he's heard from people like Yuri, is not building up a pleasant image of this place in the slightest.]
meowbel: (Without You)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-26 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
All the more reason why we should stick together! Still don't know what CERES or whatever is up to but I know number in masses is a good thing!

I mean, what? There’s more of us than of them right?

[That and she may have lead an army where she and her friends built a giant robot to defeat an evil demonic triangle. No big deal.]
fishyoldman: (TEMPEST)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-27 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
I couldn't have put it better if I tried, little miss.

[Speaking of sticking together, this has him curious...]

Are there many people from where you're from here? Or just you and your brother?
meowbel: (Dreams Come True)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-28 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Not that I know of! Unless they're just secrely hiding and want to play a good game of hide and seek for me!

[Even then, she wasn't sure if she wanted to see a certain demonic evil triangle lurking around either...]

What about you? You met anyone you know here yet? I could help you if you want!
fishyoldman: (RAIN)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-28 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Real kind of ya ta offer, sweetness, but I already found a couple of folks I know. Yuri and Flynn -- ya ever met 'em?

[For some reason he just expects Yuri to be as infamous and Flynn to be as famous here as back home, even when that's probably not the case.]
meowbel: (Dreams Come True)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-28 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[While the name Yuri didn't sound familiar, Flynn did. Which was why there was a huge smirk on her face]

Oh yeah, I definitely heard of Flynn! I doubt you can forget the name of a literal knight in shining armor! And especially when they're a ladies man too!
fishyoldman: (PUNISHMENT)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-28 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
No! Could it be that he's stolen the heart of every lady before ol' Raven could get here?!

[He's so hurt and betrayed! And yet not actually that surprised.]
meowbel: (Ring Ding Dong)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-28 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess it might have something to do with that good ol' knight in shining armor charm he is! Ladies just can't get enough of it!

[Not to mention that he kept calling her 'Miss'. That was always a win in her mind]
fishyoldman: (FALLING)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-29 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
How can I compete with a knight? I'd never be able to pull that off...

[Raven, stop lying.]

There have to be some ladies 'round these parts he hasn't charmed yet, right?
meowbel: (Mr. Mr.)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-29 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Wweeeelllll....

[Raven, what have you done? Now there was a huge smirk on her face and totally getting ready to plot something!]

I can go around and see what kind of ladies might be interested. I'm pretty sure there are quite a few who would be amazed by you!
fishyoldman: (INDIGO BEASTS)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-29 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, you don't hafta do anything for Raven, little miss. I think this old man is just past his prime... Maybe I should just go curl up in a dark corner someplace...

[Please just ignore this big whiny baby, Mabel. It's in your best interests.]
meowbel: (Mama)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-29 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
What are you talking about? You just called me 'miss', you're ladies material already!

And who said you're past your prime? I sure don't think so!

[That and Mabel probably want to play matchmaker]
fishyoldman: (SOUL SMITHS)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-29 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you're too kind! But you're a little on the young side for me, so don't get your hopes up.

[He grins. Someone sure perked up quickly.]
meowbel: (Ring Ding Dong)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-29 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ . . . . . ]

Well looks like someone got over it quickly! All the more reason why you should go off and give dating a try!

That and my heart belongs to another! Such is the life of a young maiden's love!

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-29 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahh, the young, so full of romance and excitement!

But y'know, ol' Raven already has a date.

[Which he may or may not have kept secret because... he enjoys whining...?]
meowbel: (Bonamama)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-29 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh really?

Then care to tell me who it might be?

[And here, we see a 35 year old and a 13 year old acting like preteens]
fishyoldman: (GARNET CHAOS)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-29 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Her name's Jibril! And she's a sweet and beautiful lil' angel from above! [Literally.]

She rescued me from where I was trapped in a big scary castle, and that was when I just knew we were meant ta be. Pretty romantic, huh?

[He's also really embellishing this, but hey, it's not like she needs to know the truth.]
meowbel: (The Boys)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-30 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
That's so sweet! She is here with you right?

If she is, I need to meet her at once! Especially if she rescued you from that mean ol' castle!

[It was just like a fairy tale! ...Except not really]
fishyoldman: (GALE SPREADER)

[personal profile] fishyoldman 2016-05-30 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh, you'll prolly find her in a library or somethin' with her nose in a book. She's super smart and loves ta learn!

[They met two days ago, and he's gushing about her as if they've been dating forever. What a moron.]
meowbel: (Shake That Brass)

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-05-30 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
And a really intelligent girl too! Sounds like you got one lucky woman to fall head over heals for!

Although, there is one question I'm sure is on everyone's mind! [Then suddenly, her voice got really really low!]

...Does she like you back?
