About three minutes ago, Owen Harper was on his bluetooth with the usual So, a Rift opened up in the cellar and something came through before it sealed up; I'm sure none of you care, but on the offchance that you do, I'm going down to check it out. He's not expecting anyone to come. Granted, an entirely new rift opening was a bit odd, but it ( Read more... )

There is a young girl skipping through Grant Park. She has a wireless PS3 controller in one hand. The other hand, she holds up close to her face, the distorted doll heads on her fingers letting off some pretty serious psychic disturbance. To some, it might seem like indistinct chattering.

Rejoice, Chicago!

There is one Francis Barnam back in town. He's not actually supposed to be in Chicago. He's supposed to be on his way to California. But he needs to stay here for a bit and make sure he's truly, truly better. If he's better, he'll be able to handle things here.

Chance Adams hasn't been out in quite some time, and she's enjoying the brisk Chicago air. She's at Grant Park at the moment, smiling to herself as she watches the kids play. She misses her family a little, sure, and she sure as hell didn't eat any turkey yesterday, but ( Read more... )

[Backdated to last Tuesday]

At exactly 7:10 PM, a black Jaguar pulls up to the Gauche. Tabitha helps herself out, and stands on the curb for a few moments, waiting for her father. The stress of the last couple of days has been building up on her, and it's not helping her health. She seems fine enough, though, if not a little tired and wobbly. Mild ( Read more... )

Midnight passes. The sickness that's taken hold of every shapeshifter fades away, causing every one to shift back involuntarily. When they awake, they'll be human again, if the shift itself doesn't wake them ( Read more... )

Midnight passes again ( Read more... )

At midnight, every flea and louse in Chicago drops dead, as if killed by the chime of the clock. For about an hour, everything is perfectly fine in Chicago, the most normal it's been in the past four days ( Read more... )
