Who's up for a barbecue?

I didn't mind no bunnies til SOMEONE got kicked in his little kitty face when he tried chasing and bothering one, even though I tried warning him not to. I believe that someone has learned his lesson and is staying in his crate or outdoors or well away from bunny rabbits until they're all gone.

Cats...

Anyway, I don't want to be hurting no bunnies in my shop, and they're everywhere, so Frye Mechanics is closed until further notice. Last thing I want to do is have one end up trapped inside the hood of a car or something.

Well now, I DO like me some pina coladas. Not so much the getting caught in the rain part, though. Not that there's been any rain, oh no, it's been pretty nice out here.

Rocking the boat. getting a nice tan. rocking the boat some more.

yup.

I give them in faith and good will.

Barring any MORE unforeseen disasters, I'm aiming to open Frye Mechanics the end of this month or thereabouts. If anyone's got any inclination toward fixing machines of all sorts, you're more'n welcome to come on down and show me your stuff! I might well have a job for you.

Otherwise, til I get more staff, I might make myself available by appointment only.

Most of you have probably heard by now that I've been mustered out from the NMPD. Before the smartasses decide to get in their remarks, just remember that if I wasn't afraid to fight City Hall I'm not going to think twice about knocking you on your ass, either.

Anyway. For a long time now I've been collecting overtime-heavy public-servant pay and been keeping too busy to spend it. Now I'm going to do the opposite -- cash in and relax as many hours of the day as I can. Maybe go into business for myself.

I'm open to suggestions, as long as you've got something more creative than "buy me a drink."

[Locked to Kaylee and Joker.]

Got a few ideas on the business end of things. Just sent a picture to both your phones of a boat down at the pier -- a 48-foot motor yacht. Used, but still in decent shape. Now that I've got all the time I want, I was thinking I'd like to spend it on the move -- explore the island, catch some sun, maybe run tours or explorations for people to make a little extra.

If I did it, I'd need a helmsman and an engineer with me. I've got a couple people in mind.

Thinking about calling her the Neptune.

Starting to think it might be easier to just never get outta bed again.

[Text to Shepard]

Are you normal again?

Who: Everybody involved in the date auction fiasco awesomeness.
What: Dates! Dates all over! Willing dates. Begrudging dates. "GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE" dates. "Who are you exactly?" dates. All sorts of dates, really.
When: The 14th mostly? May range outside of that if one person like the Once-ler has a whole bunch of dates to attend to.
Where: All over the place I'm sure. Probably to be determined by thread.

HEY SO here's a mass log. Here are your deets. The idea here is that the auctioned person will put up the thread starter, either with a scenario or just a note as to who they have dates with. Think like similar to the mistletoe mass log.

I don't know. This is terrible. Tag yoselves and GO YE FORTH.

Sorry I been quiet. First I was working on my shop, and then I got sick, and then people were disappearing on top of that so I ain't exactly been feeling social and ain't been looking at the network very much. Still ain't feeling it, if you wanna know the truth, but I know better than anyone that I can't sit and wallow no more, not if I wanna get around to start feeling better.

I hope I didn't miss nothing important.

So, just outta curiosity, how hard is it to start a new business here?

OK, it ain't just curiosity, I been thinking since I been here a year, I might as well settle down and make a go at having my own mechanic shop. I get enough requests just being self-employed that I think I could make a whole business out of it, and it'd make my job a whole lot easier having lots of parts and a space to work in and all.

Sirius Black signed my boob.

[Nodding as she sports a massive grin.]

Seriously. Sirius Mother-Faeking Black.

[Pointing to herself.]

I can now die happy.

[She pauses for a second, still grinning, shaking her head as if she can't believe her luck.]

Best - Kidnapping - Ever.

Oi, New Moore.

Let's play a game!

SHAG/MARRY/CLIFF
or
FUCK/MARRY/KILL
whichever you prefer, really.

You answer completely honestly and then leave your own triad and everyone else answers you and we fuck ourselves over for the conceivable rest of eternity.

Look, I'll even make the first one easy: Ramona, Shepard and that shifty forest bint, Aisling.

Who: Kaylee Frye and Kate Beckett
What: Post-"I Think I Just Broke Up With My Boyfriend" talk at one of the bars.
When: The evening of December 1st
Warnings: Drinking. Girl bonding.

( and what once seemed so black and white turns to so many shades of grey )

I still can't believe we're graded on handwriting. What are we, five?

Golly, there's so many new people I ain't had a chance to say hello to them, so... hello! I'm Kaylee, and if you got anything mechanical I'm just the girl to fix it. Otherwise, I'll happily cook for you. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories and... well, it just makes me so happy.

I am from the year 2500 or so, though, so please pardon me if'n I sometimes forget that not all of you are used to traveling in space and all. I love ships and engines and could talk about them all day long if you let me.

Text message to Shepard

I ain't given you your Christmas present yet. Got a good time I can come over so's you can cash it in? ♥

I'm not sure Loki understands how these balloons are supposed to work, but I appreciate the effort.
It seems like a shame to pop them all now though. Loki lined an entire wall of my bedroom with them.

Thank you all for the insane birthday party last night.

If anyone wants pictures, I've asked Souji to delete them all. If he sends you any copies, let me know so I can hunt him down and kill him.

Kidding.

Mostly.



Okay, okay, in all seriousness- thank you Loki for organizing everything, and thank you to all my friends for answering his call to arms. This has probably been the best birthday I've had... ever. So thank you.

And Loki?

You're helping me clean up all this silly string.


[ OOC: If you think your character was invited, they probably were, unless their name is Tim. No Tims allowed under the Loki code of 122012. Anyway, Loki organized the surprise party, and it was crazy as only a tiny Loki party can be. There were silly hats, silly string, 80s music playlists, leis, Mardi Gras bling, and underage drinking. You're welcome, teenagers of New Moore. Thank you for celebrating this day in the 17th year since Kate Bishop's birth. ]

Considering current events, I'd just like to make a quick PSA encouraging everyone to invest in some breath mints if they're going to be out and about. Because some people really need it. That's all.

WHO: Anyone and Everyone
WHAT: All the kissin's
WHEN: Dec 16 - 18
WHERE: Wherever you want!
WARNINGS: Affection, freak-outs, possible R ratings


Ok! Here is the post for collecting all your kissing logs! If you want to do individual Network posts and then lead in to kissing that way, that's fine, but if you're looking to do a straight up log, this is the place to do it. That way we don't flood the community with all the log posts.

Instructions:

1. Post your character's name. One reply per character so that they're all neatly organized.
2. When you tag to a character's thread, put your participating character's name in the subject line.
3. ???
3a. Feel free to edit the post tags to include your character name for easier activity reporting
4. PROFIT!

So a year ago today, I came here to New Moore for the first time. It don't hardly seem like it's been that long, but there it is on the calendar. Don't really know how to feel about it, seeing as how I ain't home and hardly seen my crew since I got here, but has it really been so bad? I don't think so.

I have a lot of people here who I love and care about, and who love and care about me back, and I don't think I need much more than that.

Thanks, everyone. Everyone I know, and everyone I don't know, for being a part of my life here. When you get right down to it, my life's been pretty good, and it keeps getting better.

♥ Kaylee ♥
