Okay I already live in California, but sorta appropriate Led Zep lyrics are sorta appropriate.

Dean Winchester's gonna be missing in action for a few days, maybe a week, after having a couple of epic bitchfights with his angel and his brother. (They are seriously epic. Check them out here with Cas and here with Sam if you like tragic things and lots of feelings. Warnings for spoilers up through season seven.) He'll only answer calls under extreme emergencies, and he won't be trackable if he has anything to say about it. Mention Sam or Cas to him and he'll hang up on you (unless you also mention words like "dead" or "dying"). Pretty much everything else will be ignored.

This is not a hiatus, since I'll still be around to continue existing threads and the like, but Dean's outta commission for the most part.

Hello Asgard, I'm Alex (the one who plays Kakine a.k.a Manipulatey McGrumpypants) bringing in Philip J. Fry from Futurama! Fry is pretty stupid, but he's got his upsides. He's a pretty nice guy. He's an ok dresser. He can eat cereal from the top of his head, which is harder than it looks.

And he can do the Hustle longer and better than anybody.

LOOK AT HIM GO! WHAT AN ANIMAL!

He'll be in Freya with Charm as his power (not like he isn't already charming as can be). If you want them my AIM is mellosvest and my Plurk is pantherstrike.

'Sup, comm~? My name is Lysoke and I'm shiny new don't break the toy, guys. With me here is Doctor Owen Harper from the British sci-fi show, Torchwood.

To be honest he can be a real asshole. He's sarcastic, cynical, and skeptical of most things. Except aliens. He hunts those.

Anyway! For those of you who know the series, he's post "Exit Wounds" (season 2) so he's recently dead for the second time!

Ummm if you want them, my AIM and Plurk are both 'Lysoke' feel free to find me/contact me on either.

HEY Y'ALL! My name is Chase (player of that one Dave Strider;sup) and I am bringing to you yet another insufferable prick, this one known as Nathan Young. Nathan is from a British show called Misfits, where basically young offenders doing community service turns into a whole super power run-mayhem turning havoc chaos (you get the point). He is from S2, so it's before he leaves the show (all my sads).

You can find me at plurk as frontwardsor AIM as shucks buster. (A simple request though, if you add me on plurk, please don't do it for the friends count or something. I don't talk about RP as much, you see.)

Nathan's pretty vulgar and rude, so I've put up a permissions post here. Hope to thread with you all soon ♥

Hiya folks, Noah here cementing her place as a character whore by filling out her roster with this kid here from that series with the fogs, glasses, fighting monsters, and parallel worlds...


Okay someone was taking notes this is a little freaky.

I bring to Asgard Henry Wong from Digimon Tamers. Yes, Henry, not Jian. Yeah, the dub for this show is weird, they keep most of the Japanese names and even his father's name, but this kid gets the Americanized treatment even though they clearly establish him as half-Chinese half-Japanese. Not to say the dub is bad because it's not, especially when compared to other kid shows at the time. Oh the stuff that gets past the censor in this series it's hilarious. But right, I am taking him from the dub because that's the version I am more familiar with. I know, blasphemy, but it saves me a lot of headaches just to fall back on the version I know better. Get your torches and pitchforks over here if you really have a problem with it.

Henry is a smart kid who acts like the mediator and is a pretty big pacifist for most of the series. He's friendly, inquisitive, and a might over-protective, you can find a much more in-depth version of his personality over here. He's without his partner Terriermon, so that'll shake him up a bit. I am taking him from before the Digital World arc because...yeah to any one who doesn't know the series, shit gets real from there. Really real. Oh Tamers, how you induce so many night terrors even to this day. He'll be staying over in Odin House with the power of Fire Magic. The things I do for a joke, I'm worse than Terriermon.

If you need to get in touch with me, I'm usually on plurk [cookierobots] or aim [noahofdreams].

what do you do?

You accept maddie's humblest apologies, but her issues have been acting up in a way that's been keeping her from the game lately. Not a full hiatus, just a slowatus until things calm down upstairs. You then shower her with love and chocolate.

That will be all.

Hi everyone! I'm Megan, and I'm here playing Toshiko Sato from Torchwood (you may or may not know me from some other comms where I also play her, I am a one-trick pony). She's kinda quiet and shy, and is also a bit of a geek (obviously), but she's nice once you get to know her. Also I am terrible at intros, sob. You can contact me here, or via plurk or...however you like. :3

Oh yes! She's in Odin and her power is ice magic. Whee!

So I went to intro last night, right, but it was three in the morning and I typed about five hundred words before I realized that they made no sense. Hopefully this attempt goes better!

My name is Kiwi Fruit, and you don't care about me, so let's move onto this Much More Interesting Chap, Leonardo da Vinci! He's Italian from 1488, so he has no idea what's going on, but boy oh boy does he want to learn! He's from that game with the people in hoods, Assassin's Creed, but he's not actually an Assassin. He just helps one out. (A lot.) He's a genius and a painter and ridiculously talented, but he's also super friendly and curious and likes to talk. In fact, you don't always have to talk. He can do all the talking. Sometimes even when you want to talk. Don't interrupt him when he's working.

Since Leo here is a fictionalized historical figure, it is totally cool with me to fourth wall him if your character would know about him! Obviously, it won't be all that accurate: the real da Vinci was a lot different (and more neurotic) and didn't have Assassino friends popping in at all hours of the night, or use an Assassin to test his flying machine, or anything like that. And obviously no knowing AC-exclusive things because that would be fourth walling. BASICALLY: historically fourth wall him, but don't actually fourth wall him. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? IS THAT OKAY?

A n y w a y! I am contactable on AIM at andwinterfell and I'm in the EST time zone and I keep a relatively diurnal schedule, if waking up at noon and going to be at 2am counts as diurnal these days.

I think... that's... it?! AM I DOING THIS RIGHT, I HAVE NO IDEA. CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING AND NO ONE SHOULD LET ME NEAR A KEYBOARD, OKAY.

ETA: OH. YEAH. He'll be in Odin with fire powers.

Hello everyone!

My name is Lex and I am bringing you Laura Kinney/X-23 of Marvel Comics. Laura has been placed in Hel house, and has the power of shadow manipulation.

As for a general summary of Laura's character, she is a Wolverine clone who was created by a place called the Facility to be a living weapon. Her conditioning was pretty horrible, but she's learning to move beyond that and learning how to be human. It does make her problem solving approach a little violent, though.

Unfortunately for Laura, she does not have her enhanced senses or healing factor here, although she still has her adamantium-coated claws (ouch!). I'll probably be posting her IC intro on Friday.

My plurk is FightingSpirit if anyone wants to add me. Alternately, emailing me (evil_wild_lex AT yahoo DOT com) is also a good way to contact me for plotting. I'm looking forward to playing with all of you, and hello again to people who I have RPed with in the past. :)

Hey, Crystal here! I'm the girl who plays that dumb clockwork angel who kills criminals, Cheriour. Now that you have checked your forehead for any ink stains that might possibly be there, it is my greatest pleasure to introduce a new character that will hopefully be a big part of your Asgardian lives.

Meet Jacob. He hails from that cult television show about a mysterious tropical island and the people who get stranded on it called LOST. Jacob here is...well, he's complicated. He's the spiritual immortal guardian of said mysterious tropical island and he enjoys things like walking on the beach, weaving giant tapestries, being a god figure, and influencing everyone's else destinies by touching them. Except he can't do that anymore here- instead, he'll be chilling out in Sigyn House with the Healing ability instead of his god-like powers of omniscience and destiny-influencing and such.

And here's an interesting tidbit for you guys: Jacob loves everyone. No, really. Even if you are the worst villain in the history of the world, Jacob will like you and talk to you and be happy to get to know you. If you want a father figure in your character's life, Jacob will be so very happy to provide. HE IS THE POSITIVE CR WAGON, EVERYONE ABOARD oh god who allowed me to write intros

HAVE AT HIM YOU GUYS?! Also, I bear no responsibility for people mistaking him with the devil. NONE WHATSOEVER which means, Supernatural cast, feel free to misjudge away. :D

I'm so sorry guys - especially to the KH cast and everyone Terra had CR with - but I'm going to drop Terra and with that totally from the game. The size and speed are both just a little a tick too much for me to be comfortable.

If anyone would like to stay in contact, you can reach me through AIM (Fortunelady Icey) or plurk (iceyly).

I had a great time here, so stay awesome Asgard!

OK GUYS. First of all, update on rooming and sweeps: we're finalizing the sweep list now, so look for that in the OOC comm here soon. Rooming is a slow process due to volume of codework and stuff, so we're working on that too!

For now, though, here's that slightly late Valentines tally!

If your character is sending anyone valentines through the Valentines Plot, please comment here with the following information:

Character Name & House
Recipients' Names, Houses, and # of valentines sent

Here's a handy but optional form:

<font color="#66aacc"><b>Character Sending</b></font>: NAME (House) <font color="#66aacc"><b>Character Receiving</b></font>: NAME (House) <font color="#66aacc"><b>Valentines Sent</b></font>: ##

Remember, your characters can send as many valentines as they can write names on, so it's totally conceivable for them to send one person 50 valentines or whatever they'd like. We'll be tallying aaaall the sent valentines to determine the Ball Court!

PLEASE SUBMIT THESE BY 11:59 PM CST/GMT-6 ON FEBRUARY 10. After that, we'll be closing the tally so we can get them all counted and contact the winners privately on the 11th! If your character wins a spot on the Court but you don't want to or don't have time to play in the log, you'll have the option of bowing out so we can pick someone else.

ICLY, your characters will find out about the event the morning of! This means the banners talking about the event and the boxes for sending valentines will show up at midnight, or OOCly at 12:01am CST/GMT-6 on February 14! :) If you'd like to actually write out what your characters' valentines say and stuff, that's fine. The best vehicle for spreading the love would be the IC inboxes we've asked everyone to have set up on their character journals (remember, threads in IC inboxes should be game canon unless otherwise noted, and game canon threads do count for AC!) You could also make a network post listing what all of your special valentines said, if you want. Basically you're welcome to handwave or write out whatever you want however you want. Just remember that once addressed the valentines disappear and end up in the locked boxes in the recipients' rooms! The boxes will come unlocked when the ball starts at 8pm (of the IC day), so valentines can be ICly read at that time! :) HAVE FUN!

Comments to this entry are screened, but you can still ask questions to the mod questions thread and we'll unscreen those threads. We'll unscreen everything else once the log goes up and the Court is announced.
