DAY 028
SOMETHING ON THE WIND
Another day dawns in the fair town of Mathias. The sky is a blanket of light grey, tiny specks of snow lightly falling as the hours pass. It makes the town feel almost quaint, the scenery quite peaceful in its winter garb. But beneath the veneer of peace there is a pervasive dread of something approaching. Something inevitable is on the wind, something that has come before and will come again...
Throughout the day, residents will consistently experience feelings of deja vu, that sense of having done or seen or said something before that can never be fully recalled. It happens again and again, tugging at the back of their minds, the memories just frustratingly out of reach.
Residents will also notice a note pinned around town:
The note can be found on the town hall's bulletin board and the front doors of many town establishments, including the Grey Gull, the library, and the boarding house. At the bottom of the note it is specified that the meeting will take place "tomorrow, when the sun is over the town square."NEW ARRIVALs
The newest arrivals to Mathias will wake on the frozen lawn of the town hall atop a snowdrift. They had best hurry inside and get warmed up before hypothermia sets in.
DAY 029
A GATHERING OF MINDS
In the late afternoon when the sun hangs over the town square, residents will converge upon the Town Hall, where a larger meeting room has been filled with rows of chairs. After most people arrive, John Constantine stands and addresses the room... and then sits again. A grand introduction, truly.
Residents are encouraged to share their experiences and information they have gathered in the town while holding questions until the end. Rather than getting tangled in the intricacies of each person's tale, it seems better to absorb the broad strokes and try to connect the puzzle pieces to get a look at the bigger picture that is the mystery of Mathias Township.THE INEVITABLE
As the meeting comes to an end and residents begin to converse among themselves, the feeling of something approaching and sense of deja vu begin to build, becoming almost oppressive as night falls. An hour after nightfall, residents learn the reason for these sensations that cease immediately as the earth begins to rumble. The buildings shake, furniture tumbles, and breakables crash to the floor as the earthquake sets in without warning.
The tremors last around a minute, far longer than a normal earthquake, and then the town settles again. There are no aftershocks, which many may note is quite unusual. Residents will find quite a bit of mess in their homes and other locations around town, but there is no structural damage to be found despite the intense shaking.
CONDITIONS UPDATE — THE WEATHER is fairly typical of a northern winter. The sky is grey, the temperature hovers just below freezing during the day (colder at night), and a light snow falls during both days. Residents should bundle up when going outside and not venture too far into the dark night...
— THE FOG remains blocking the paths in the forest, urging residents to stay huddled within the town proper, and it also now blocks the northern section of town, beginning just before where residents know the chasm in the earth to be. Venturing into the fog is ill-advised.
— DISAPPEARANCES continue with Sherlock Holmes being the latest victim of the town's unsettling whims.OOC NOTES — TOWN MEETING STRUCTURE The town meeting section of the log is designed for characters to share any information they would like to with the other residents in attendance. ICly, characters should "hold questions until the end" with the intent that they can get the Big Picture first and connect any dots they see. OOCly, this means players should post their character's information sharing tag in the Meeting section, but the actual conversation about whatever they share happens after the meeting proper in the Mingle section. That way, these conversations can happen however players prefer, be that one-on-one or in small or large groups.
— HOUSING Please be sure your character's housing arrangements are up to date on our list. We're missing a few people and it really helps to know where everyone is for planning. Frequent updates for wandering characters are perfectly acceptable.
— THE BULLETIN BOARD has been updated. Players should note there is a change to the wall near the board that may be of great interest to some residents.

[ vampires are monsters, aren't they? the monster under her bed got her in the end. elena wonders what "weird" is to someone who has a normal existence. clearly claire isn't someone who can give her insight into that.
scrunching up her face, she lifts a shoulder and offers, ] At least there's no homework?
[ it's not like she did her homework, anyway, but still. ]
no subject
Yeah, see, that's why I ditched college. Homework or ganking monsters? I'll take the hunting gig any day.
[ She scraped through high school at Jody's behest, but college? When she could be out there hunting, fighting monsters? Just nah. Not her scene.
She can't exactly sit through benign, normal people shit when she knows there's werewolves out there killing people. ]
no subject
What kind of monsters do you hunt?
[ elena looks curious. she imagines it's okay for her to ask; claire did offer that information freely. ]
no subject
[ Angels, when necessary. Claire... is just not gonna mention that. ]
Was looking forward to ganking a vampire, honestly, and then that one just had to... come forwards with manners and self-restraint, the spoilsport. Didn't even get to use my brilliant plan of luring out an out of control vampire with my banged up hand.
[ She holds up her hand with a wry grin. ]
no subject
glancing at claire's hand, she gives her a small, distracted smile. a plan to gank her vampire makes her uneasy. ]
Elijah's not an out of control vampire. [ she crosses her arms against her chest and wraps her hands around her biceps. ] I'd be surprised if anyone trying to hunt him actually succeeds.
SORRY this is so late
[ Claire tugs on the bandaging on her hand, then glances up at Elena almost sheepishly. ]
Relax, I just... run my mouth a bit. I'm recklessly stupid, but not quite that level of suicidal. Plus, I mean. If he wants to play nice, that's just good for the rest of us.
[ Not the worst monster Team Winchester has ever thrown in with, to be honest. ]
how could you? (don't even worry about it!)
she does relax, somewhat.
cracking a smile, she concedes. ] He is… very much like the captain of the debate team. You don't want to cross them and you also want to avoid them because they make you work very hard.
[ is elena implying elijah is a perfectionist overachiever? maybe. he could be. ]
<3
[ Claire grins. ]
I definitely have to see if I can't find a nickname that rattles him. He seemed to like 'gramps', and I haven't decided yet how hard I wanna poke the sleeping bear.
no subject
Maybe don't point out his age. I think that's the wrong way to go.
[ for someone who's so old, she imagines he's heard it all from his siblings or the people he's gotten close enough to confess his true age. ]
Maybe call him something youngish. Don't focus on the old, but focus on the hip. Maybe call him a Milennial.
no subject
[ Claire snorts in amusement. ]
Like 'oh, you look like you belong on a network tv genre show for young adult viewership'.
no subject
[ while it does surprise her to discover she feels very protective over elijah, elena's even more surprised that she wants to tease him. she'd never lead anyone like a lamb to a wolf. she fully expects elijah to take it in stride and be bemused by the reception. ]
Just don't be offended if he doesn't laugh. I don't think his face supports the movement you have to make with your mouth.
no subject
You know the dude pretty well, huh?
[ She leans her head in a little, maintaining eye contact. ]
I'm guessing you're the one 'helping him out', then? No judgment or anything, just... this isn't some Twilight imprinting stuff, right?
no subject
[ she's a little taken aback by that presumption, although, it's not something anyone should take with a grain of salt. vampires from mystic falls are pretty fucked.
but claire unknowingly gives her a tangent. elena doesn't confirm if she's helping elijah out, even if it may be obvious by her refusal to acknowledge it. ]
No, it's nothing like that at all. He didn't imprint on me. We're just… friends.
no subject
[ Holy shit, they're totally fucking.
Girl looks a bit young, but then again, anything counts as jailbait to a 1000 year old, Claire supposes.
Oh god. Dean is totally jailbait in comparison to Cas.
Oh no.
For a moment, Claire has an expression on her face that quickly morphs from sharp amusement to utter, horrified, regret. Then she clears her throat. ]
So, you guys from the same place? Before Mathias, I mean.
no subject
We are. [ kind of. does it count if he was in virginia from her last memory, but isn't at his? ] We're both from Mystic Falls in Virginia. [ just in case it sounds familiar. ] And we both just kind of ended up here. I guess we're lucky, since others don't have people they know from home in town.
[ is she trying to talk so she's not asked if she's with elijah? maybe. ]
no subject
Crush on Ellie whomst? We don't know her. ]
Not sure if lucky is the word I'd use, to be honest. I got three people from home here, and let me tell you, I'm just constantly worried about what those knuckleheads might get themselves into...
