The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

I'm sorry for holding things up ;A; Thank you for handling Selan a bit though Pach, that'll definitely help me catch up faster.

Edit: I'm at school atm, I just checked what classes I can take in the summer and a lot of the starting days fall on my birthday :|

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

I totally forgot that I have to meet with my group tomorrow afternoon, so I've been stuck working on tomorrow's homework since I might not have time before class. D: SO MUCH FOR SLEEP, jeez, what is up with this week? I can't guarantee a post tonight, but if I do it'll probably be short, I'm super sorry. But hey, after tomorrow night I'll finally be free for the weekend!

Edit: Yeah, no, I'm about to pass out and I'm determined to spend the next 6 hours and 15 minutes until I need to get up asleep ;0

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Feel better soon Danni!

I'm in math class right now, I had to buy coffee and candy just to keep myself awake >_o Hope everyone's having a good day!

Los Paraisos: Saint Drega's Church

“And hey there, Lisette. Who’s our favourite little bridesmaid and flower girl, huh?” Tom bent over, laughing as he rubbed her hair. “You find your prince charming yet, or does the bouquet still have to work its magic? Haha. Wait. Wait. Is this him? Your boyfriend?”

So she was here yesterday...? Why didn't she remember any of it? She felt like she would have remembered being the flower girl for a wedding! But nevermind that, Marcus definitely wasn't her boyfriend! Where did he get that idea? He's...

“We’ve got all of your wedding photos right here, your commemorative mugs, t-shirts and baseball caps… oh, and I posted those cards you guys wanted me to send to all of your friends and family sharing the wonderful moment with them… man. It was just beautiful, bro. I get all teary-eyed just thinking about. Was beautiful. Really, really beautiful.”

Lisette looked over the mementos with some curiosity, still finding it hard to believe that she had really forgotten such a... beautiful wedding. Well, of course most of them looked completely smashed, but Lisette liked how the photos with her came out. There were silk flowers woven through her pigtails, and she looked like she had a lot of fun.

"Mister, I mean, Father Tom? Did you send any of this stuff to my father?"

"Absolutely!"

"..." Lisette turned one of the mugs over in her hands; it had just her beaming face on it. Her actual face broke out into a similar smile. "... Yay! He's going to love these!"

She had gotten distracted again, probably because Moira and Marcus were so amused by the memorabilia as well. Not everyone was so enthused, though; her hair suddenly stiffened, and crackled when she brushed a strand out of her eyes. Something was wrong with Syed again, which he voiced quite plainly, and she looked back and forth from the unhappy couple to Tom, wondering what his answer would be.

He had a good point. It wasn't totally responsible to allow drunk people to get married, but it was just an accident, right? Lisette thought that this would be an easy fix, but maybe it was just rotten luck that it had to happen to Syed and Amy in particular.

Los Paraisos: The Bucking Bronco

“Um, shouldn’t we use the bathroom or something? Aren’t there changing tables in most?”

"That's a good idea," Selan said, turning to look for a restroom. "I'm terribly sorry, we'll leave as soon as we get the baby changed." she said as she passed by the -- She actually did a double-take once she realized the man's state of "dress".

She was expecting Dylan to be following after her, but he was talking to the man instead. She would have stayed for the conversation if she didn't hear Don howling about something further ahead.

Los Paraisos: The Bucking Bronco - Restroom

"What is it?" Selan asked once she reached the bathroom. She thought it was unisex considering there was only one, but there were urinals in plain sight. As well as a changing table, thankfully. The decor, much like the rest of Los Paraisos, was surprisingly glitzy, even for facilities.

"I just wanted him to hold the little stinker for one second!" Aria said, still holding Delan as far away as possible. "He backed into the urinal and started screaming."

"Alright, I've got him..." Selan sighed, taking Delan back after she had washed her hands and setting him on the table. "It's been a while, but I've done this before. Crimson Justice, could you give me a diaper?"

"Erm, right!" Crimson Justice procured the item, handing it to the songstress with some difficulty. She actually had to stretch out her arm to be able to grab it.

She had no idea what little Delan had eaten to pack such a powerful punch, but soon enough it was over and done with, and the baby looked much happier now, maybe even grateful, since he had stayed still long enough for her to get his clean diaper on.

"Crimson Justice, can you hold him while I wash my hands?" Selan asked, heading to the sink.

"W-well, my gloves..." he stammered, sweating beneath his helmet.

"Oh, Don, I can't take care of this baby on my own...!" Selan sighed in an exasperated tone, not realizing how it probably sounded.

Aria seemed pretty done with her turn with Delan, so Selan took over carrying him as they left the restroom to rejoin Dylan.

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Ooo, okey dokey. I'll probably get a bit of a shorter post up soon, I've been doing homework all evening/still kinda working on it (I can't decide what to do for my speech topic and I keep changing my mind) and I really need to get more sleep.

In all honesty I might just skip the Avatar discussion for the week since you guys covered pretty much everything, and I'll just get a head start on next week's batch because "The Waterbending Scroll" lolol

2NE1 Inspired, Slice of Life, Girlband RP

Hey, I'm definitely interested in this! I'm a big K-pop fan and this sounds like fun c:

Thanks Pach, I feel better now, thank goodness @_@

Hee, that was a cool list to read. I do a few of those things too |D

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Los Paraisos: Saint Drega's Church

“Did something happen to you all at a church last night? You and Lisette didn’t happen to get married, did you? Haha.”

"What, no way," Lisette laughed, figuring Marcus was merely making a joke. "Right Syed--"

CRASH!

Lisette flinched at the explosion of glass, and wasn't prepared for the sound that followed next.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! No, of course not! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Syed howled. The look on his face wasn't one of joy, it was one of panic, and he looked back at Marcus with a wild expression in his eyes. Was he okay?

Moira pointed out that Syed was in fact wearing a new ring, and demanded that Lisette show her hands. She immediately complied, holding her palms up as if she were under arrest. There was absolutely nothing on her fingers or wrists. Even though she was pretty sure there was no way she had gotten married last night, the way everyone was making a big deal about it was freaking her out a bit, and she shared the relief on Moira's face when she confirmed the absence of a ring.

They stepped onto the church grounds, and Lisette was taken aback by how natural it looked compared to the glitz and glamour surrounding it. It was nice to see that someone cared enough to keep it looking the way it probably did when it was first built.

"This place is pretty," Lisette said, much calmer than the others. She wished she could have admired it a little longer, but upon seeing the large, heavy doors of the building, Amy charged forwards and threw open the doors. Lisette wasn't exactly a devout person herself -- her pragmatic father encouraged her to study religion rather than practice it -- but she had a feeling that the music that suddenly filled the room wasn't exactly traditional for the setting.

Unfortunately, at first glance the only person inside was a funny-looking man with a fascinating, purple hairstyle.

"OI! YOU!" Moira shouted, pointing her finger at the odd-looking man (a priest?) as if she recognized him.

"Annul this. You annul this right. the fuck. now. Or I'll paint your face redder than blood." Amy hissed dangerously, pointing at a...

"Wait everyone, please don't... Oh! A ring!" Lisette exclaimed, joining the others in pointing, this time at Amy. "Wait a minute, so Miss Amy and Syed are... Wow...!" she trailed off, thoroughly confused.

Los Paraisos: En route to La Macabaret

“Hey, Selan, would you like some help with the baby?” Aria asked. “I can carry him for you for a little while, if you’d like.”

“Hold up there!” Dylan said with a smile. “I want a turn to hold him too!” Leaning in, he made a series of silly faces at the kid, who gurgled at him with a laugh.

"Alright," Selan conceded, secretly noting that her arms were getting quite tired from carrying the baby for so long. In hindsight, if she had spotted one in the hotel room, she definitely would have brought a stroller along. She passed the baby to Aria's waiting arms.

“No idea who this kid is, then? Still, since you and Don found him...how about...Sawn? No that doesn’t work. Delan?”

"Ahah, 'Delan'...?" Selan laughed at Dylan's suggestion. "Wouldn't that be confusing? It both rhymes with my name and sounds a bit like yours..."

To her surprise, the baby broke into a smile at the sound of the name.

"I think he likes it!" Aria smiled back.

Selan's heart might have melted a bit, but she recomposed herself quickly. "Oh, my... Alright then, Delan it is, then? It's only temporary, anyway."

They began to pass an especially gaudy-looking strip club, which wiped the smile off of Selan's face. The especially close proximity of the strip club to the night club naturally worried her, considering they were still in the process of reconciling the events from last night. She took solace in the fact that there were no clues yet to suggest they were there.

Bam!

The strip club's double doors flew open and they all looked to see who was standing there... Only to have to adjust their sight downwards a bit to accommodate Trixie's shorter stature.

"Trixie!" Selan gasped, surprised to see her of all people emerge from such a place. "What... are you wearing?"

The girl ignored her and made a beeline straight for Crimson Justice, gawking like a fangirl and asking for an autograph.

Dylan cleared his throat, grinning and waving at Trixie. This caught her attention, and started to ask the first questions that understandably came to mind upon seeing them. Including pointing out that the "ugly meatbaby", now named Delan, finally needed some attention. As though Delan realized it himself, he started crying and squirming in discomfort, squeezing tiny tears from his big, round eyes.

Selan was a little glad that Aria was the one holding him now, but she did call to Crimson Justice for the baby bag. "I think we might need to duck inside the club for a moment, just to get him changed?"

Calling the next post!

I'll update this with Avatar stuff after I catch up.

Edit: Might have to save Avatar stuff for tomorrow, I remember these episodes enough to know that I didn't think they were that great either (but don't let that discourage you, the rest of this series is fantastic as a whole) so my motivation to watch that tonight (it's 2AM) is a little on the low side. Plus, my post was pretty hard to get through, I've had a nagging headache ever since I got home so that's basically my limit for concentration tonight. :|

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Los Paraisos: Cafe Outside the Pellagio Hotel

While the others were seated, Selan paced around the table trying to calm the baby. The poor thing was understandably startled by all the ruckus, and was particularly put off by the sprinklers suddenly triggering overhead on their way out. She pat his back and bounced him a bit, her eyebrows furrowed in concern.

We'll find your parents soon, I promise...

Aria was kind enough to assist them with preventing them from being recognized and chased around again.

Lisette stared. "I don't think it worked, I can still tell it's you, Miss Selan."

"I believe that's the point, Lisette. That's actually very interesting, thank you Aria." Selan said, wondering how she appeared to strangers now.

“Well,” Dylan said after they listed everyone who was still missing, “I’m ashamed to say that I don’t remember anything either. But this,” he pointed at the newspaper, “might help us. It says that last night’s performance was held at Los Parasios’ largest venue. Why don’t we head over there and see if anyone knows anything?”

"Hm... Let me see?" Selan said, walking behind Dylan's chair to glance over his shoulder.

She immediately grimaced at the photo. It was... actually a rather nice picture, and she still couldn't remember a single thing about that moment in time. When the photo was taken, her hair and dress were still immaculate, and she and Don were smiling brightly, the lighting hitting them in a dramatic fashion and posing, microphones in hand. There was no baby in sight.

"'Los Paraiso's night life scene was lit up when this talented pair, pictured above, stormed the stage of La Macabaret unannounced...'" Selan skimmed the page, stopping at the bottom of the paragraph where it called to turn further through the newspaper to read the rest. The latter half of the article probably mentioned the 'proposal' she had heard about from the paparazzi. "How embarrassing. 'La Macabaret', huh?"

Lisette, who was quite taken with Don's new persona, finally tore her eyes away from the Crimson Justice's impressive physique and presence to pay attention to Moira and Syed's discussion.

"... I just know we met Lisette at some point last night, so we might have met Estelle too. You two are really close." Syed suggested, hoping Lisette might recall something.

She was just as hopeful too. "I... I don't really remember seeing Estelle or a church though," Lisette said, scrunching her face up trying to dig through her already-poor memory. "And I still don't know where Kapi could be... Whereever you guys are going, could I come along? Kapi might be waiting..." She ruffled one of her pigtails, and a few crumpled up silk flowers tumbled out. "That's weird..." she mumbled, checking the rest of her hair and finding several more.

"Estelle and Trixie are still unaccounted for, maybe we should split up into a couple groups," Selan suggested. "I'm not too worried about Josette, she might just be working right now. But I'd like to head to that nightclub now, the baby might have belonged to someone who was there last night. Don-- I mean, Crimson Justice, could you escort us?" she asked, rifling through one of the complimentary map pamphlets stacked on the table. "It's only a few blocks from here, past the restaurant we were at last night."
