Who: North Italy and ALL Y'ALL
Where: Plaza (willing to travel)
When: Today, whenever
Style: whatever you like
Status: Open

Italy had finally stopped shaking, thanks to his many friends he'd made here. He hadn't seen any signs of the Boogeyman (read: Grand Highblood) anywhere so it must be safe to go out again.

A few weeks ago, Medic had suggested opening a bakery. There seemed to be interest in it and he even got a partner, a pretty and very sweet mouse queen!

Now there were two questions left in the country's mind:
1. location, location, location
2. cost?
Everything was essentially free here, though Italy had no idea how that even kept their economy alive (Vatheon was anything but impoverish). But giving the baked goods away for free just didn't sit right with him. He could only think of how poor his people had been lately. But money was meaningless here. So the idea of trading for goods sat pretty well in his mind. Bartering was his old way of trading (in his early country days), but that didn't mean he couldn't do it again.

Anyway, he stood in the plaza, staring at the buildings, sketching them out to see what sort of storefront he should have.

Who: Rinoa and Selphie
Where: Selphie's favorite bar
When: Late evening/night
Style: Any
Status: Open!

[Once both girls were recovered and over their "illnesses", it had been decided that Rinoa needed to get properly drunk, aka get drunk while still in control of herself and with a friend. Perched on a stool at the bar, Rinoa has a margarita in hand (she's been avoiding wine since the curse) and she motions to Selphie with it.]

Okay, okay, I concede. You were right. This was a good idea.

((OOC: Feel free to join in with them and have drinks!))

Who: Zelos and Colette
Where: In a cafe, then the pet store
When: Noonish and onward
Style: Action
Status: Closed, unless someone has a good reason to interrupt them

[True to his word, Zelos had gone to pick up Colette and treat her to lunch after the curse had lifted and midafternoon found the two Chosens sitting outside at one of the plaza cafes, finger sandwiches and fizzy sweet drinks gracing the table. It's a huge relief for Zelos to get out of the house, having been couped up for the week with that stupid curse. It was almost insulting, considering what he'd had. he hadn't even kissed anyone seriously in more than a month and Vatheon gives him mono? Not cool. 

He sips his Italian soda, leaned back casually in his chair with his legs crossed, and smiles broadly at his company. He had things to tell her, but there was no real rush.]

So any luck with training dummy?

Who: Sola, Signless, Psiioniic (?), Ion
Where: Signless and Psiioniic's hive to start
When: Nearly a week after Sola's resurrection
Style: Any
Status: Closed, unless someone has a good reason to jump in

[It had been quite some time since Sola had been outside.

He'd spent the past week puttering around Signless and Psiioniic's place, first refusing to come out of the room they'd let him use, then slowly working up to joining them on the couch for tv or at the table for meals when he was feeling a little more able to be social. He hadn't said much, merely grew more bold as far as seeking out contact went, content to ensconce himself between the two trolls and ask the occasional question concerning whatever was being watched, staying away from any mention of anything uncomfortable.

So it's far from the norm when Sola comes up to Signless out of the blue one morning and asked this:]

Is... it alright if I stay here for good?

Who: Shelly and anyone
Where: Lower District → Middle District
When: Afternoon
Style: Either
Status: Open

[Early in the afternoon, Shelly heads down to the lower district as a continuation of a long due exploration. While she's at it, perhaps she can see how effective products from the Nostalgia Nook are. Given the epidemic a while back, how about, say, a panacea for a test run?

The Great Lamufao has other things in mind, apparently, and Shelly stares long and hard at what she just accidentally spent her tokens on.]

. . . You're kidding me. You're giving me that?

[So Shelly returns to the Middle District with a whole new(?) pancreas of her own. Some deity, couldn't it have given it to her in a jar or something? She's going to need new gloves -- not to mention the smell.

But not now. Not when she looks out and one modest building catches her eyes. Peering over the potted plants through the window, she hums.]

A salon . . .

Who: Selphie and ALL
Where: Chocobo Barn

When: Afternoon.
Style: Any!
Status: OPEN!

During the curse, Selphie had been forced to stay away from the barn - there was no way she wanted that to spread, not if there was a possibility that it was actual sickness that she had, and not just a curse. So she'd been home for a week for real rest and sleep, and was able to return to the barn as positive as ever.

There's some disturbance and noise going on around Nostalgia Nook, near the barn. Selphie's busy in there again, only this time doing something else. She's definitely decorating. There's fresh coats of paint around, the barn doors wide open, and Selphie can be found high up a really high ladder, stringing up some lights that she's had since Christmas. The place, for a barn, looks pretty tidy too, with the hay stacked in neat cubes at one end, and the other with some wooden planks, vaguely resembling a stage.

Time: after this; night

( no it won't )

Who: Darkleer, Summoner, Equius, and Gamzee
Where: The Highblood (+1 Temporary Mouthy Lowblood Rebel) Hive
When: Morning
Style: Action?
Status: Closed

[Yes, there's the positively bewildering matter of Dualscar, and the much more terrifying matter of the Grand Highblood, but the more dangerous of the two has been dealt with. Even without that, the week has been almost... peaceful, even with the arrival of Mindfang and all the difficulties that caused. ]

[It's almost been nice. Then again, considering the date he and Summoner went on, perhaps he is slightly biased.]

[But now things are truly going to be back to normal with the return of Gamzee and Equius. They've been gone far too long, having to survive with dealing things up on the island. They deserve something good for once. So that's why he's in the kitchen, making breakfast. He still hasn't bothered to get his sunglasses back from the Helmsman, so it's the same cheap pair he's wearing again. Only he's a bit more casual today: glasses pushed up and resting against his horns, a tight blue tank top hugging his torso, and simple black slacks, his sign on one pocket. His hair is tied back once again in a loose, messy bun, strands still brushing against the nape of his neck and between his shoulder blades.]

[It's quite possibly the most casual he's looked in quite a while.]

[Pancakes, fruit, crepes, quice, bagels, a little something called Akki Rotti... It's all set up on the table already, and Darkleer is simply finishing up a last few dishes. Coffee cake and banana oatmeal bread, to be specific.]

[What? They eat a lot here.]

[Carefully removing the two from the pan, he asks over his shoulder to the troll who's been helping him all morning.]

Could you assist me with this? We'll be done after this.

Who: Zelda and ~anyone~
Where: Nostalgia Nook (morning), walking around (early afternoon), library (afternoon-evening)
When: March 6th
Style: Either
Status: So open it might leak into other people's posts, sorry about that people.

[Zelos was out for the day, and Zelda had grown very used to his company in the week since Sola came back. Kind of disturbingly used to it, really. She decides to head out herself to do a little shopping and then go to the library. It seems like she has something on her mind, but when doesn't she?]

Characters: Kanaya Maryam, Karkat Vantas, Feferi Peixes, anybody else up on the island at the time
Location: The Island
Time: March 2nd, early evening. After She arrived here and after pretty much all the conversations here
Style: Action or Prose, I'll follow your lead / preference.
Status: quasi-open? If you're there you're there.

The elevator finally came to a stop after it's long journey. The doors opened, releasing a single passenger. The glowing troll had arrived just in time to see the last of the sun dip away. Oh well. Karkat should be here to meet her shortly, and Feferi would be here soon as well, along with who knows who else.
