So, Anthy-mun and I were talking, and we decided that all the characters in Milliways require mottos. Humorous ones.

We came up with a few:

Hob: Never Drunk Enough
Thom: Caring is Creepy
Delirium: hAvE yOu SeEn My DoGgy?
Mittens: I Can Smell Your Brains
Anthy: Absolute Destiny Apocalypse (canon, and yet... so wtf...)
Trotsky: The Proletariat is Always Right
Fate: Why Aren't You Dead?
Pepper: Are You Looking for a Fight?


But we need more! Suggest them below, and feel free to suggest new ones for those characters we've done already.

Something Positively Insane: part one of God knows how many

[minkhollow]

Started in on this... just over an hour ago, I think. This is as far as I have time to get tonight (there is RenFest-ing tomorrow, so I need sleep). I alternately feel like I got nowhere with this and feel bloody well accomplished - this is a page and a half in my word processor, with all the links written out, of course.
Aubrey? PeeJee? You're on your own next time, girls. XD

Really, this thread was just an excuse to get all our characters absolutely sloshed. Just so you know.

Crowley comes in, and leaves a note for Glorfindel. He is approached by the ever-hilarious Barbie, is bemused, and offers to laminate her.

Mogget, 'Skandra, Tonks and Aziraphale arrive in short order. However, Mogget quickly wigs out upon seeing his sister, and scrams. 'Skandra, Tonks and Aziraphale discuss the Prophecy and being Crowley's Angels, until Bernard sends over a bottle of 1992 Tattinger champagne, compliments of the house.

Bernard is beckoned over, and explains his rather generous gift to the angel, whom he then proceeds to thoroughly embarrass. It's beautiful. On the whole, however, apart from the odd conversational faux-pas, the two get on quite well, and soon end up discussing art, and how it relates to blowing things up. Aziraphale, predictably, is an angel, and Bernard manages to find a tiny bit of self-redemption. Crowley and Bernard also discuss Bernard's... predilection, but from rather a different perspective. Fleur arrives, and is hilarious.

Tonks explains Auror-dom to Bernard, who cracks me the fuck up. The two are rather touchingly optimistic, and raise their shot glasses in a toast to brighter days.

Crowley is utterly demonic, and convinces 'Skandra to try her first shot of tequila. Despite the throat-burny, she still manages to comfort Tonks and the returning Mogget.

Meanwhile, in a thread documenting their descent into drunkenness, Crowley does his part in embarrassing Aziraphale. Wilde is quoted, before the topic moves at light speed from the day's nefarious/benevolent deeds to the angel's choice of words, to the annoying-ness of the Metatron, to pincushions, to thwarty theme tunes, eventually culminating in a sequence wherein the ultra-geeky muns manage to make movie, soundtrack and webcomic injokes AT THE SAME TIME. Eventually, it all turns a little fuzzy, and they head home.

I just have to say, to everyone involved in the antics of last night/this morning, that you are all AMAZING.

Everybody?

We just broke 300 members.

[leplusbeau]

*winks*

So, if you passed out last night and I missed you, are you covered in glitter and shiny tape. If you do not want to be covered in glitter and shiny tape, I missed you absentmindedly.

Really, having a drunken strip poker night without me. *pouts* Okay, no, not really. I laughed my ass off at all of you when I came in late last night. Hurrah crack!

An Edit.

So, I was looking through the new members. And I died a bit. We have a Pinky & the Brain. We have Billy, Ted, AND Rufus. There's an Aphrodite! (My poor baby is going to be out of job soon!) *geeks about in joy* I work with such creative people! Oh my! Sorry, had to share my joy. JOY I SAY!

Strip Poker Summary

[lord-of-dreams.livejournal.com]

First; getting drunk.  By the time this was posted, Dream's Mun was already 3 shots down.  No other way to play him.  Snow came by and had a bottle of "wine" which was actually cherry brandy.  Snow and Morpheus briefly discuss the dreams of her children, and he ever-so-stuffily points out that he wouldn't share those with her any more than he'd share her dreams with them.

Mogget does not get involved in drinking or stripping, but does talk to Dream for a bit.

Glory (like Luci, the mun has decided that "Glorfindel" is too long to type over and over) joins in the drunk.  This is because Glory's player also can not imagine the elf stripping sober.

Tonks is next to succumb to the "wine", when she comes over for a chat with the Dream King.

Desire is a butt.  We knew this.  It realizes what is going on, and suggests Strip Poker.

I missed Nuala's post.  By this point, Dream's mun is somewhere between "plastered" and "very plastered".

Alright, starting out with Hob's post here.

Hob's drinking. Of course. Thom comes over for some banter. They discuss the morality of Thom's magic. Hob asks if Thom regrets dying. Thom says if he were alive he could have learned. He wants to know if Hob has ever killed anyone. Hob says he has, but refuses to be more specific. He wants to know if Thom could erase a memory from his mind. Thom wants to know what the memory is. When Hob won't tell him, he gets annoyed and leaves.

From across the bar, Paul torments Hob.

Trotsky recognizes Hob. Apparently they *cough* knew each other in London. They banter woebily and reminisce and are extremely slashy. It's all rather sad and sweet, if you ignore the extreme WTF. Eventually talk of drinking leads to Trotsky passing out.

Billy, who's been asleep next to Hob, wakes up. Hob gets all awkward and reveals that he feels like a third wheel. They both make declarations of conflicted love. Hob says that when the bond is broken, he'll leave. Billy wants him to stay. They kiss. It's sappy. Oh, so very sappy.

Then we move to another thread. The thread of SEXY WET LUCIFER. It starts when he enters the bar after swimming in the lake. Shirtless. Wet. Um. Is it warm in here? Just me? Okay. Anyway. Hob comes over and is rather sullen at him. They discuss the dreams. Hob doesn't know what to think, but feels somewhat betrayed. Lucifer is, well, Lucifer about it. The conversation naturally makes it way round to flames and pain. Lucifer is briefly, once again, creepily gentle towards Hob. They kiss. Fahye and I are dead of the pretty (did I mention SEXY WET LUCIFER?). Then I'm just dead, period, cause I've been awake for about four days. And, the end.

Wherein Liz Administers A Beatdown - No, Really.

[muddypetticoats.livejournal.com]

Liz walks into the bar, feeling rather out of sorts. For those who are just tuning in, after the rescue mission into the Dreaming, Liz and Morpheus remained linked. A bit of Morpheus resides in Liz (and all you pervs can just shut those gutter minds off right now), meaning that the two know random information that the other has never shared, will occasionally use the same signature gestures, and generally act more like the other. Dream is now more human than he's been, and Liz is more sedate and reserved than before. They can also share certain experiences, like strong bursts of emotion... or intoxication.

So Liz comes in, feeling the effects of Dream's raging drunk. She makes her way to a table, black rose in hand as with the previous night before Liz's mun zonked out completely.

Will waves, but he's busy chatting to Merriman. Peter is around, but has this silly impression that Liz would be upset or inconvenienced if he went over. So he doesn't.

Todd, however, does. Liz is not exactly thrilled to see him. They chat for a few minutes about Liz's black rose, and Todd asks to sit. Liz puts the kibosh on that, and Todd stays standing. Todd references the scandalous strip poker game, asking if she'll play, and an unamused Liz shoots him down in rather insulting fashion. Todd tries to cover, and Liz corrects his grammar. Todd is unappreciative of the lesson, insisting that he's right. Liz is Austenianly snarky. She's getting increasingly pissed with Todd, both for present and past behaviour toward her. Todd tries to push Liz to speak her mind, and she is properly vague in her answer. Todd asks her point-blank if he has offended her. We'll pause here for just a moment.

At some point during this conversation, Anthy has caught Liz's attention from by the fireplace. She comes over and starts baiting Liz to wear the rose. Liz doesn't take the bait immediately, instead asking Anthy about the various shades of roses. Eventually, however, Anthy gets back to business. Liz finally is talked around to wearing the flower, and asks Anthy for a pin. Anthy provides, and Liz sets about pinning on the rose. Cue ominous music here.

By this time, Will has finished his conversation with Merriman and joins the group. Todd introduces himself, and the two boys briefly talk about England and America and other such things. Anthy and Will have a staring match. Will wins. Liz chats with Will very briefly about readjusting to life after the Dreaming. They don't get very far, however, as Liz has finished pinning on the black rose.

Quickly - the black rose, when worn, allows the wearer to act upon the first suppressed desire that comes to mind, and allows them to do so without remorse. At the moment, what Liz wants to do more than anything is strike back at Todd. So, she does just that, swinging a fist at Todd's nose. Will is startled, Todd starts to dodge, and Liz kicks at Todd's groin while still swinging her fist. Because of the dodge, she only connects with Todd's thigh. He grabs her wrists, trying to subdue her, and leaves himself open. Big mistake. She kicks him directly in the groin with her other foot. Todd calls Liz a little bitch. Liz is proud of this, and takes a swipe at Todd's face with her fingernails, looking to draw blood. Todd ducks and grabs a chair for defense.

Will tries to pull Liz away, but she refuses to have any of it and throws him off, warning him to keep away. Peter joins in the chaos, and is entirely in favour of Liz beating Todd into a pulp. There's a man who can appreciate strong women. All hail Peter. He even heckles Todd. All hail Peter more. Anyway, Will doesn't listen, and plunges back in. He can sense Dark in Liz's actions. Anthy and Ares just look on with amusement.

Liz is still acting like a wildcat. She nearly rips off Todd's shirt, and he moves to slap her. Quoth Will, "Aw HELL naw!" Todd is coldly rageful. Will doesn't care. Liz is ecstatic for Will's help, and takes the opportunity to try to strangle Todd. Will grabs her wrists, while Todd grabs her hair (ow). Liz tries to break free, but can't. So she turns into a dove instead, unconsciously using the Dream link and accessing that bit of his power in her. Dove!Liz pecks Will and Todd, Todd moreso, and makes for the nearest rafter.

Everyone watching has a "Holy shit!" moment. Dream arrives, summoned by the use of his powers, and coaxes Liz from the rafter.  Liz agrees in a birdlike way, and is handed over to Peter as Dream deals with Todd. Todd is bold, Dream is unimpressed. Destiny is summoned to show Todd his future. Destiny complies: It's simple, really, as Todd has no future.

Dream departs, probably to snog Moiraine. Ares and Anthy chat. Will does what he must, according to Dream. Todd can't cope, and leaves for his world, trying to convince himself it's a dream. Destiny scoffs, thinking "Suck it, biotch." And Peter takes Liz back to his room for the night, since he can't get into her room in the House of Arch. It all sounds rather explicitly sexual. Or not.

Firstly, my laptop hates me, and has been crashing regularly for the past few days. If I vanish suddenly, or if I don't return after telling you I'm restarting, it's because of computer trouble, and I apologize in advance.

Secondly, to make things easier OOC for anyone who picks it up, I'm elaborating on the black rose's effects here. When worn, the rose makes its wearer act upon his or her repressed desires. Specifically, in a negative, usually violent way; sexual desire is expressed with sexual assault, dislike is expressed with physical violence, etc.

In canon: (1) not everyone will be affected, only people with a strong enough urge or obsession repressed, (2) only the one dominant desire is acted on, (3) the wearer is in a trance-like state while under the influence, (4) the wearer is under someone's control, assumably Anthy's, and (5), possibly the most important: once the rose is removed, the wearer doesn't remember anything that happened after he or she put it on. All of these are fairly flexible here, except the negative part (while Liz may feel better for having beaten on Todd, the rose would not have made her simply tell him off, and Will is right to see the Dark involved) so do what works for you.

Belated Summary of the Wiggin Reunion

[third-wiggin.livejournal.com]

Okay, this took an hour to do. x_X

( Follow the link or sheep will eat your brains. And trust me, that's not an idle threat. I mean, these are some pretty ferocious sheep, and I'm just barely restraining them, so, you know, don't tempt me, because this leash is just begging me to let it go. 'Let me go,' it says, in the beckoning tones of a siren. But I won't listen! I won't! I am as impervious to its charms as if someone had put beeswax in my ears! Hahahahahahahaha! But I might just LOSE SOME SELF-CONTROL if you don't click the link. I'm a dangerous woman! Don't test me! )

*pant pant pant* …okay, you know, someone ELSE is doing the next one. x_X
