Week One

[stagemanagers]

[Yesterday, everyone woke up in a strange place and realized that they'd been kidnapped, and also that everyone else around them may or may not be kinnies? Wow, what a weird escalation of kin drama! Given what some people have seen of Spongebob's freaky arm thing, though, maybe it's not that at all?

Your Assistant Director, Hester, showed off her stuff and immediately had her life threatened by Lumpy Space Princess, who got her life threatened right back. Maybe you should keep that in mind if you decide to pay Hester any more visits! She won't be making another public appearance this week, but as promised, she'll be available for visits and consultation in the Principal's Office during business hours.

If you don't want to chat with Hester, there's always the school to explore! Some of you might also be receiving mysterious coins next to your bedside this week - those must be useful for something, right? There's lots to do, and you all seem like a group who can make your own fun, so enjoy your first week of school!]


Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday


(( OOC: This will be the last mod post for this week! Feel free to start submitting regains for any threads that aren't with Hester. Remember, song threads mean an extra coin! This is a peace week, so get all that CR while you can! ))

[the land of Francs?]

I...am not. I have been there, naturally, if it is indeed France you are speaking of, however...from there, no.

[mcfife]

Do they call themselves France...? [He doesn't remember than name in history class. Then again, this is 1000 years before his time.] I suppose I am. It can be difficult adjusting to a new time period.

[...Is this man not even aware of what Zargothrax was up to? The Land of Francs is pretty close, but if he's never been in the area, he might not be aware. The Balladeer had no clue, and he lives in America.]

You see, I come from the future. I traveled to Earth in the past to stop an evil wizard, but I appear to have been detained after accomplishing my task.

1/3

[violentenvies]

Yes they--

[violentenvies]

[he was going to answer that question but then Angus follows up with that and...]

3/3

[violentenvies]

[......]

Normally I would question such a statement, but considering the circumstances, you could tell me just about anything and I would believe it, to be quite honest.

[mcfife]

I understand, it can be difficult to time travel under normal circumstances. [But everyone knows that with enough power, you can go into an alternate timeline.]

Unfortunately, I do not recognize any of the countries the others have mentioned save for America. And France, in a sense.

[violentenvies]

It seems that things might differ quite a bit where we're from, then. I don't believe that traveling through time is something one can do where I'm from. [js]

[mcfife]

How can it not be possible? It is a known arte throughout the world.

[...]

This had better not be another reality. [He is going to punch something if it's true.]

[violentenvies]

I have never heard of such a thing, except in the nature of supposing the fantastical after several bottles of wine.

[mcfife]

[Angus drops the peeled potato into the pot and rests his hand in his hands.]

No adventure ever ends peacefully, does it?

One last question - what year is it for you? [He has no clue what he's expecting. No answer will make things better.]

[violentenvies]

1732. [he watches Angus rest his head in his hands, and if that isn't a mood]

And you?

[mcfife]

Originally from 1992. I traveled to some time around the year 1000. We already had space travel by your time.

[Ugh...]

Normally I would run around and seek help, but we are unable to even to that.

[violentenvies]

I beg your pardon...space travel? [say what now???]

[mcfife]

Space travel.

Traveling in space.

[violentenvies]

I...see. [HE DOES NOT SEE AND HE IS PERPLEXED] That is. Ah.

Unexpected.

[mcfife]

It's quite normal in my time. All that it takes is the proper equipment and power.

[That's not what's confusing Salieri, Angus.]

[violentenvies]

The same power as time travel requires? [this is so much]

[mcfife]

Far less than time travel. You need to do a lot of spacetime manipulation to just open a portal to another time. Spaceships just need fuel.

[violentenvies]

..... [SURE]

This all seems...rather fantastical from my perspective.

[mcfife]

But it's reality. [He moves the potato onto his knife hand and pats Salieri on the shoulder.] I'm certain your timeline will eventually catch up, Monsieur

[violentenvies]

[....]

...perhaps. Though something tells me that such a time is farther off than I will one day be able to see.

[mcfife]

[It's a real tragedy, Salieri.

Angus finishes his next potato and lets it drop into the pot.]

Would this be enough for the soup?

[violentenvies]

[Salieri starts a bit as the potato drops into the pot, and his attention jerks back up to Angus from where he'd been giving his own potato a thousand yard stare]

Ah... [he glances down into the pot] Let me just finish this one, and that should be sufficient. [he's going to quickly finish that up and drop it into the pot, before pushing to his feet] Let's move the pot up onto the counter. We will then need to roughly chop these potatoes, and cover them with water.

[mcfife]

[Angus grabs both handles of the pot and lifts it onto the counter. For the chopping, he picks the biggest knife on the rack.]

Onto the counter, they will go.

[violentenvies]

[great, he will definitely let Angus do the heavy lifting here, seeing as he is Mr. Noodle Arms. Though he does look bemused at Angus's choice of knife]

I believe that will be more than sufficient for chopping them. [he'll select one as well, though not nearly as big, and pull one of the peeled potatoes out and begin to start chopping it]
