The stairs were eventful today. Too eventful. Stark had planned on bringing pizza and coffee with him to the clinic but today he opted for nothing just in case otherwise parts of the island decided to go rogue and change on him while he walked.

"Sorry," he said, waving his empty hands sadly. "It just didn't seem wise to try and carry anything at all given the state of certain things out there."

He was just glad the clinic didn't have stairs. Trying to exit his apartment had been an adventure first thing and then he's gone to class and now he was here and...

"I'll bring pizza next week. And drinks."

Stabby, who had somehow built stairs inside his tank, seemed to be having a great time climbing pathway up and sliding down into the water.

The clinic was open for any possible slide related injuries. The crab was having a great time. And tyke alien was kind of over it. For the moment.

The kitten still hissed when Caleb approached, but she didn't cower or bat at him at all. And she went for her food pretty readily.

He decided to hang around a bit longer, resting his hand near with one more treat on one outstretched finger.

She was grey, with just a hint of stripes. And a dab of white on one ear.

"What's your name, I wonder."

The shelter is open for anyone who needs a kitty or doggo/pupper break.

Or possibly a ferret. Maybe even a hedgehog.

Current Mood: peaceful

Rey hadn't had a problem going to the warehouse, but coming back, she had not been expecting the stairs to become a slide.

The shriek as she slid down, startled, was surely very badass.

Which left her at the bottom, standing to glance up at the slide that she was apparently going to have to walk up now. Maybe if she gave it a minute, it'd turn back? If not, her legs would just kill her tonortow, it was fine.

"Welcome. We have quite a bit to do today, so I will begin quickly," Hannibal said, "but I hope you won't mind. There is quite a bit to learn if you intend to work with gelatin."

He gestured at his setup. "I will be demonstrating by making panna cotta." It had previously been marshmallows in this lesson, but, well. "There are a few techniques to cover in order to make this. Dissolving the gelatin, cooking a mixture to a specific temperature, and carefully mixing different substances. Once we've completed all of that, they will have to sit for several hours in order to gel, so you will have to take them with you and eat them later. I will demonstrate that as well."

He went over the recipe carefully, demonstrating with gelatine powder and real vanilla.

"Any questions?"

Class had been advised to meet in the Danger Shop today, and when they showed up, they would find themselves in a simulation of Hampstead Heath.

"One thing that's supposed to be good for focusing is taking a walk," Jon explained. "I'm not about to go walking around in the current weather, though." He was English, but not insane.

"So here's Hampstead Heath. It's good for walking; there's all kinds of nature and it's not too hilly or anything. Let's go for a walk."

When the students got to the Danger Shop and stepped into their own individual simulations, they'd find a Kitty to hand them their task. And each Kitty was looking a little annoyed thanks to how she'd slipped halfway down what had once been stairs. And then she'd phased, ended up half in the slide, and then it turned back into stairs while she was there just to add I suit to injury.

ANYWAY.

Do the best thing with this cement mixer. You have until the end of class. Your time starts now.

Oh, also there was a cement mixer there.

Oh right, it's that game today, isn't it? The squirrels are in sports jerseys if anyone is curious.

*chittering*

I'm mostly interested in the halftime show, personally. So, let's get this done so I won't be late for anything there. Over at Caritas we had Three Minute Dates! As per usual. Liliana and Ignis discussed potential coffee based cocktails and did their usual amount of flirting. Adrian also got some flirting in while discussing appropriate clothing for the event. He was also happy to see Pam there before the discussion turned to threesomes. You know, that usually happens during the interesting weeks. Lydia helped Arden out with the cold with some magic. Which feels like cheating, honestly. Gray and Arden both bemoaned the weather as well. Belle and Arden went from the topic of drinks to the topic of book titles. Which I'm sure all makes perfect sense in context.

And then there were, of course, the dates.

After those, the bar was of course open. It looks like Rey and Stark took advantage, catching up on what the other has been up to. In non-bar news, there was also a date night for Lucifer and Octavia as it seems Duke is currently an otter. That time of the year, huh? Happened to me in December.

But that's all we have. Go have fun, folks!

His tail was cold.

Whenever he ventured outside these days he wrapped it around his waist, which still felt weird, but something must have slipped in the layers he was wearing because a chill had settled into it and it was taking a bit to warm it up.

He was trying to help it along with his hands, reminded of his childhood nervous habit of worrying it.

Gregorith was once again grouchy so he'd brought fancy cocoa and baked goods for any visitors to try to make up for his surliness and extra resting stab face.

"I feel like even Jotuns would be like 'bit nippy innit'."

Hello, everyone!

This coming week's random event comes to you courtesy of

throughaphase: chutes and ladders! Yes, tomorrow, Fandom's many stairs suddenly transform into slides, sending everyone tumbling downhill (or trudging doggedly back upstairs) whenever they try to traverse the island.

Then, the week after that, on Tuesday February 17th, Once More With Fandom returns after a long absence! Yep, all day, your characters - if you wish - will break out into song, original or otherwise, when emotions rise to the surface.

Enjoy!

Many people were having an exciting night out of dates and drinks and potential pratfals. Lucifer and Octavia? Well, they had only barely managed to wrangle their now-otterified partner back into the boat yesterday afternoon. They were tapped for the day.

Well, not so tapped that Lucifer hadn't been able to purchase a ridiculously fancy-looking portable wooden tub. It currently sat in the bedroom, filled with water and one very snuggly-looking otter.

But tapped enough that Octavia and Lucifer themselves were in the room, on the bed, sort of... watching the otter drift.

"I wonder if he's happy like that," Lucifer mused. "Duke seems like the sort who'd be happy like that."

[[ for her and for some method RP for the both of us ]]

Good morning, everyone, and it is I, Miss Lydia Bennet, here to bring you all the news of yesterday...today! That sounded better in my head. Let's get on with it, shall we?

At the school, Overcoming Obstacles watched a dog show, whilst Combat 101 learned about knives and Cupcakes of the World(s) explored the treats of Morocco.

I don't see anything from the dormitory, so we shall move on to the town, where Mr. Crocker, Miss Blake, and Mr. Morningstar enjoyed breakfast aboard the Cape Rouge before the former turned into an otter, as one does. At the Trooper Station, it seems that Detective Watts was preoccupied with something underneath his desk before being joined by Mr. Grant for luncheon. And finally, at Miss Skywalker's warehouse, she and Dean Skywalker observed the woodchucks doing a spot of ice skating, as woodchucks apparently will do.

Well, I have finished my notes, and I shall hope to see you all this evening at Caritas! Farewell!

After the buzzer had gone off for the last time, everyone was free to mingle. Maybe they'd want to gossip with their friends. Or maybe they'd met someone they hoped to get to know better. Or maybe they'd want to hang out at the bar and try to bump into someone they didn't get. Or maybe they wanted to try one of the specials (including the one Tino had added in the last fifteen minutes). Or maybe it was too cold to go out again right away. Or maybe you wanted to punch that one person now instead of during the dates. Or maybe you wanted to hear the zombie band play now. Or maybe you wanted to try to steal the glitter banner. Or...

SPECIALS
Cupid's Kiss
Very Sexy Martini
Red Hot Valentine's Shot

Look what time it was! It was time to get everyone piled into the bar to make friends and/or bad decisions!

The bar was decked out for Valentine's Day, with a lot of tacky-classic red and pink decor to go along with the huge banner draped across the wall of the stage, lovingly made by the Glitter class, reading:

WELCOME TO
THREE MINUTE DATES

Everyone was free to mingle until a couple minutes before 8:00, when Kitty took to the stage.

"Good evening, everybody! And welcome to Three Minute Dates! If you're new, the rules are as such: we'll call pairs of names. You pair up, you chat, get to know each other as well as you can in three minutes, and then the bell will sound and I'll call out different sets of names, and so on, and so forth. Physical violence will get you magically transported out, don't hook up in the bathrooms, and have fun. You've got a couple minutes to still sign up if you want!"

Good afternoon! With Valentine's Day approaching, it's time to order some flowers!

For a trip down memory lane about what the flower sale ends up looking like, see the most recent entries here. Carnations and roses are available in all colors and in any quantity.

Flowers can be sent to anyone, and can be sent from any character, including alumni and ex-pats. ICly, the flower orders will go through the Student Council (either in person or by e-mail for those who aren't local), with a note that all sales are final.

To make an order, leave a comment here (all comments will be screened) with the following information by 11:59pm Eastern on Friday, February 13th:

Feel free to leave multiple orders in one comment! The flower deliveries will happen on Valentine's Day morning (Friday). Any questions will be unscreened!

Today the dogs were laying on the ground happily destroying Kongs in front of a huge flat screen television.

"The Westminster dog show was this past week and while it's normally not my idea of a sport," Steve said, "it's strangely addictive to watch when you get started."

"We might have taken to betting on the winner, " Tony admitted. "Feel free to join in!"

"They never love the hounds like they should," Steve muttered.

Tony patted him on the arm. "So, let's all settle in to watch."

Rey came in to find that the woodchucks had again gotten into the weather controls and had somehow made an ice rink out of a portion of the course. They were apparently figure skating.

I partially annoyed, Rey eventually decided she could make it work. "Five more minutes and then it's mine!" she called.

She was totally going to fall running on ice. Whatever, she'd done worse.

Having not slept well last night, Watts was occasionally eyeing the spot under his desk where he sometimes napped with no small amount of longing. Not actually going for it, just considering it.

It didn't help that there weren't any calls coming in today, nor even an errant bit of paperwork in need of filing.

Today, Thor had a knife, which he kept flipping in the air and catching by the handle as he spoke. "A knife is the simplest weapon to carry," he proclaimed. "They are small, portable, and in some times and places, ubiquitous, although in this time and place there are laws regarding them that you would do well to familiarize yourselves with." He didn't necessarily say you had to follow them. Just know how to break them without getting caught, okay?

"Today we will learn the basics of fighting with knives," he said, before proceeding to give a lecture on the topic, complete with appropriate demonstrations. "Please pair up, select your weapons from the ~~handwavey~~ assortment available, and practice."

Duke had spent most of the week working on the boats, making sure they were weathering the cold well enough, and had managed to miss the drama of Wednesday's truth telling.

He felt a little bad for that, honestly, and now that he'd confirmed that everything was properly shipshape, he set about making himself at least feel a bit better by fussing around in the galley to make breakfast.

Waffles were an obvious choice, but instead this time Duke went with toutons, made in butter rather than pork fat, with molasses and apple butter to go with them. For protein, he soft-boiled some eggs. He had water boiling for coffee, and batter prepared for hot buttered rum if Lucifer decided he'd rather have that this morning.

The result? A steamy, spice-scented galley was waiting for his partners when they decided to join him.

“Today's cupcakes come from Morocco,” Stark said. “Or they may just be inspired by Morocco I'm not entirely certain. One of the components, at least, is definitely something that is used often in Moroccan food. Something called amlu which is a little bit like peanut butter but not really. It has almonds and honey and oil and I have some here if you would like to try it outside of a cupcake.”

“I also have, of course, some already made cupcakes for you to try. There may not be enough time for getting everything done though you can always stay longer if you need. I've nowhere to be after this. So! Today's cupcakes. There's chocolate and the amlu and caramel and I think they're delicious. Now, we have already made amlu and caramel but you could always try to make those yourselves. If you like. Caramel can be tricky it's very easy to burn it and ruin it.”

"Oh! The map!" Stark pointed to said map indicating where Morocco was. "In case you were wondering."
