now he's gettin' a tattoo, yeah, he's gettin' ink done

[Captain Hammer's journal, again tucked open in one of his cargo pockets, is picking up some interesting sounds from the second floor. There's huffing and puffing, grunts, and the occasional CRASH!, usually followed by more grumblings.]

[Periodically, some of the grumblings will actually be intelligible.]

I'll figure this curse out, one way or another.

[More huffing, grunts, a moment of silence, and then another loud CRASH!]

Oops.

[[ooc; Oh lookie, Hammer's discovered his Loss, but he hasn't quite figured it out yet!]]

Okay, so there's this dipshit trying to run for president or something? Apparently, he never got the memo about this place being the realm of anarchy and monarchy. Course, the anarchy is kinda lame and the monarchy here are either retarded, bitchy, or both dialed up to eleven.

Yup. That was a shot at you Azula. Deal with it.

Anyways, because no one wants some punk like him even thinking he's the Prez, here's the deal. I'm running against him. My campaign is to offer free drinks to everyone the promises to vote. I'll need said promises in writing.

Know that I'll find you if you renege. I have a lawyer on my side. We will crush you.

Also, I promise awesome. You can forward all questions pertaining to this claim to my minster of awesome.

Also, I'll be needing a minister of awesome. Pretty fucking soon actually. Get to it.

My running partner? I'm looking for either an ultra feminist to appeal to the female voters, or a real brass knuckles bitch to appeal to the badass chick demographic. If you got the balls (preferably ones you tore from some poor fuck), get on board.

Let's make this year...a year to score. I'm Travis Touchdown, and I approve of this awesome.

[ooc: backdated alll the way to the 25th]

Okay, so I figure while it's cold like this, I should get one of my favourite winter hobbies squeezed in.

I like ice skating, but I'm not too sure if the pond's got ice that's thick enough, or how to test for that. The town out there looks pretty old fashioned too, so I'm not sure they have a skating rink...Does anybody know for sure on either of these?

[A considering pause] And if I find somewhere, does anyone want to join me?

[hum dee dum, Nanako is hanging out in the lobby, at a little coffee table next to a couch or something, with a board game set up on the table. Shes got one copy of Candyland, and she's reading over all the instructions how to play it (people need to follow rules XD she's a dork). There is also a tiny kitten sleeping in her lap, and she has not let it leave her side since she got her *_*]

Okay, I think I know how to play... [rustle rustle, someone is leaning over to grab her journal, and carefully opening it] Um, I got a game called Candyland for Christmas, and I'm going to play it! If anyone wants to play with me... [fffff pause] B-but if people are busy, that's okay too.

I'm really, really sorry for all the belated hanging tags. My family went out of town for a few days and the place said it had internet. But it didn't. We were gone from the 25th to the 29th. I will go back and tag if you want to continue.

And since I forgot, Guilmon got York, Ken, Takato and Washington the same thing. An attempt and drawing all of them together (since he has claws, it looks more like a scribble of colors) and a basket of bread.

Caboose...I'll post in a minute.

[there's an intake of breath, as though someone's going to speak, but it's followed by silence. a deflated exhalation; a shaky breath. dictated:]

Naruto-kun has gone home.


[pauses, then closes the journal. he isn't likely to respond anytime soon, if at all.]

I never thought that I would do this, really, because there was a time when I said that I would stay in Paradisa until its end... but I'm sure a lot of you have noticed that I haven't been as active and attentive as usual. I've been contemplating this decision off and on for a few months now, and I'm finally growing a pair (though they are very, very tiny ;;).

Naruto and I have been in Paradisa a little over two years now, but I think our time has finally come to leave... and for Naruto to go back to Konoha.

I'll cherish all the good memories I've had here. Paradisa was once like my second home. I've met... so many awesome people here, so many new friends, that it's really kind of hard for me to do this /crying a little aiodhasiohdaiosdh /LAME NNGH I'm really going to miss all the wonderful CR I have built up over the years, but I really am no longer doing him justice by sitting on his character longer than necessary .__.

I love you guys and you'll always be the first game that I have been in for this long. I'll always remember you and I hope that I can still keep in touch with those of you I don't have on my f-list. T-Though I wouldn't mind adding any of you either T___T My journal is meteorfreak if anyone wants ;;

adshaiodhaiosdhadijad /BREATHES

Oh, Chouji-chan is also leaving with him :( because I don't think he'd want anyone else to take care of her.

GAH OKAY I'LL JUST STOP NOW BEFORE I START BAWLING ;__; I LOVE YOU GUYS...

- Serena

Has anyone seen Valentine around? She went off in that ship of hers and probably crashed or something. Not that I care. She stole something of mine and I want it back, is all.

[Someone has indulged a little too much in festive chocolates and edible christmas presents and now feels like death warmed up.]

Oh dear merlin, someone kill me now.

I'll hand you the wand myself.

Wow, that was a hell of a lot more than I'm used to. I could get used to all of that food.

It's kind of sad to see it all go though. I guess it'll be back next year, which'll be nice if I'm still around.

Still we've got New Years too. Is there a special meal for that an' all?

That was an exceedingly enjoyable Christmas! It was horrendously delightful and I must say, it was lot easier to deliver gifts when one isn't being shot at by the military! [And he's writing this like it's the most normal thing in the world.] And thank you again, Mister Jones, for creating my Sandy Claus outfit! I am in your debt of course.

And I do thank those who had been most gracious in giving me presents. Miss Raine? This book is fascinating! I will be certain to read every last page and ask you questions when I am finished. And Miss Uru, that cake was delicious! And it was decorated so creatively at that. What a perfect way to combine both Halloween and Christmas! I thank the both of you from the bottom of my ribcage.

Now then--

This 'New Year's' I have been hearing about. Is this another holiday? I never imagined so many holidays would be happening so quickly after another one! It's a shame I never can go through those doors at home... Perhaps I can learn more about them here instead!

[ silence before a voice seems to speak through the journal, quietly; ]

I suppose it was inevitable that one of them would show up. I guess this 'sin' of mine remains with me, even here...

[ the sound of boots touching ground echoes, followed by flipping paper. it appears that oz has found a book to distract himself. three guesses on what it could be. ]

"My weapon is being unafraid of Death"

[ ... ]

Heh.

[she's looking at the Tin Pin kit Neku got her in the game room, trying to make sense of it all]

Whammy? Slammer? I don't get any of this!

[and she picks up the accompanying introductionary manga]

And why is it always kids out on a journey to beat the adults? Why would any grown person want to take over the world with a children's game anyway?

[A certain 19th century woman is up at 3 a.m. though to be honest that's hardly new for her and has somehow managed to find the modern toaster. How she managed to miss it after 11 months of captivity in this place is beyond even the castle, but there you go.

She's muttering to herself, too, which obviously means this is a good endeavor. Let's not talk about the nearby objects.]

I-I see...so I would put something in here? But what would fit...?

[OOC: IT SEEMS I AM NOT AS INSOMNIA SAVVY AS MIRANDA. So if I stop tagging after the first couple, it's because I passed out. Sorry in advance. ;;]
