[She sounds tired, and a few yawns are recorded before her customary drawl is heard]

Question: is it sacrilege to celebrate a holiday you don't know a goddamn thing about if onna' your gods is encouraging it? 'Cause I'm wonderin'. Tryin' not to catch holy hell, here.

'Course, I don't know if I'm understandin' exactly what the point is of all this. Plants that make you kiss people? Giant, pointy trees? These weird little glass baubles or whatever the hell?

[a beat]

Think I heard somethin' about drinkin' and singin' too. I'm all for that. You all can have the rest of this stuff, though. Especially the damn plants.

Hello everyone, and we hope you're enjoying your holidays! This is a reminder that it is now December 20th, which means if you haven't yet, you have a little under two weeks to make any sort of activity for your characters. Remember: two forms of activity are required for the month and they must be at least seven days apart. The type of activity that counts is as follows:

*** a journal entry in rivelata
*** a log entry in rivelatalogs
*** a comment to an entry in rivelatalogs (posted within the specific period's timeframe; the log that is being replied to can be older)
*** a quicklog entry in rivelatalogs OR a direct link to a comment thread in a quicklog entry involving your character, where your character has commented AT LEAST 5 times (all 5 comments must contain text). Only one quicklog per character is allowed to be used for activity checks.
*** a direct link to a comment thread or entry in rivelata involving your character where your character has commented AT LEAST 5 times (all 5 comments must contain text)

We would also like to remind you that the CRIT and PRAISE meme is still up, if you missed it!

We have also extended the CR MEME by another week, since the holiday has people busy, and since we have a few new players who may want to utilize it.

Have a great evening!

~ The Moderators of Rivelata

WHO: Lavi [abusedbyapanda] and Lenalee [kickshard]
WHAT: Attempt to clear the air following that darn mistletoe incident.
WHERE: Lenalee's room~
WHEN: Evening.

( And who I am to be. )

[the distinct sound of Peter hitting the ground and tumbling for a distance.]
Oof!

I wanna go back to Neverland. There aren't even any pixies in this place!

...And what's a Christmas anyway?





[ooc: all Peter's entries are recorded, as he is unable to read or write.]

STILL WORKING ON IT!!!

I do still need a lot of info from some people though. And chances are if your characters live with anybody on the list below then they haven't been made yet. DON'T LOOK AT ME. POKE THEM.

If some of your characters aren't on the list and you're pretty damn sure you haven't given me a list, it's because I still have their info from the first time I did this :3

I'm also working from the Taken Characters List, so if your pup is new, allow me to point you this way where all this madness is explained.

( THE LIST )

THAT'S RIGHT, Y'ALL GOT NAMED AND SHAMED

Who: Roy and Tifa!
What: Mistletoe!
Where: Tifa's place!
When: Sometime after Jan is messily arrested! And Roy calms down, and Ofelia hugs him silly. Early evening.

( But when they couldn't find it Jill started to yell )

WHO: Hino Rei (luvu2bby) and Satou Sei (sei_what)
WHAT: Wine tasting for the Christmas party.
WHERE: Around the marketplace.
WHEN: Saturday afternoon.

( Please put a penny in the old man's hat... )

Things have been busy around here, especially as of late, but with the holiday just around the corner, it really is no surprise!

I used to take care of quite a few deliveries back in the day. If anyone needs help with delivering packages, just let me know.

So it would seem I have found myself in needing of a new employee. More, as the case may be.

Have you interest in working at a book shop, let me know. Resumes are much appreciated, but not required.

WHO: Lelouch Lamperouge and Kururgi Suzaku.
WHAT: Welcome wagon. So to speak.
WHERE: The docks, then... well, we'll see.
WHEN: December 19th, evening-ish?

( And our time couldn't end / And how tall did we stand / With the world in our hands? )

This is...Shikine...Island? Of course not, there are locals here and from what I've heard this place is called Rivelata.

I never heard of such a place before, but I shouldn't be here...there's an empress I must protect. A promise.

...Can someone...explain to me my situation?

I noticed your giant ugly tree was missing some zest, so I added it myself. I might have spilled a little blood, but that's healthy. I wouldn't worry about it.

I've taken the liberty of thoroughly cooking the intestines and hearts, so those less fortunate have a festive dinner!

WHO: Rangiku and Lyle
WHAT: Snowballs and mistletoe, what else could you want?
WHERE: On the snowy streets
WHEN:After the snow storm, but before Lyle gets sick and passes out.

( ...and it involves some heavy touching, yeah )

A wild fresh meat appeared! I thought I say hello and introduce myself before I start posting! I'm Dee and I bring you Suzaku Kururugi from Code Geass! :]

That is all and I look forward to playing with you guys.

Assuming the mistletoe on everyone's doorways start falling off at any moment, please remember that they are poisonous. I've heard enough people talk about eating them off the doorway to think that they're not all kidding.

[recorded sigh]

Tieria, Lockon, I just heard from Kobato... Apparently Lyle passed out somewhere in the old house. I can probably carry him myself, but will you all come help? He doesn't exactly trust me...

...I could use a drink.

WHO: Kobato and Lyle. If any of the other Gundam house folks and friends wanna jump in feel free.
WHAT: Kobato finds Lyle in bad shape.
WHERE: The old Gundam house.
WHEN: Today

( Raise a glass to mend all the broken hearts of my wrecked up friends )
