This is Anakin Skywalker and I'm still myself, which seems like a very important thing to mention today, what with the...possessions taking place. Important news first. In the library, Cosette was reading from The Big Book of Exorcisms: 101 Ways To Rid Yourself of Pesky Spirits--that can't possibly be a real book--to learn how to get rid of ghosts. There were a variety of options offered, including punching the ghost in the face.
PLEASE DO NOT PUNCH A GHOST IN THE FACE.
Later that afternoon, Stark found information in The Complete Idiot's Guide To Protecting Yourself From Stuff That's Not Supposed To Exist--seriously, who buys these--and found out that salt can serve as a temporary fix. So...more salt, less punching your friends in the face. This has been your public service announcement for the morning.
In the rest of the news--
*chittering*
Well, yes, "everything is terrible" does describe it, but let's get into some specifics, all right? In classes, Pinkie and Derek terrified their
Baking class by being clearly not themselves. And my office will be open for any
students who saw that particular bit of trauma. Meditation and Ass Kicking focused more on the ass kicking portion yesterday, and I noticed that something was very wrong with Alana. So if anyone's keeping track of who's been possessed, that's at least three so far, plus poor Sparkle...anyway. Navaan's
class got to learn about
oral storytelling--fortunately not dirty--in her Writing class. Finally in less immediately necessary library news,
Constantine and Anders talked about how they had some experience in possession-related matters. That's encouraging.
In the dorms, Isabelle found that someone had defaced her photo of her family in her room.
Flick stopped in and got hit for his concern and was told to get out. Someone check in on both of them and make sure it's just badly timed teenaged drama and not possession, okay?
Gwen was in her room freaking out because there was leaking water and nowhere for it to be coming from and yes, that's creepy.
In town,
Pinkie got possessed, which explains her class,
Hannibal was cooking in his house--not that unusual--and Jono arrived without his bandages which is unusual these days, and then he realized that Hannibal wasn't exactly himself either...so add two more names to the list. Kenzi met someone named
Molly who wasn't supposed to be here, touched Kenzi and disappeared so add another to the list...and then whoever's wearing Pinkie demanded to know what Kenzi had done to her
cat.
...I'm so afraid to know. Eliot went home and strapped himself to a radiator...so someone check on him, too, okay?
*chittering*
Ohhhhh, because he'd gotten possessed at
Luke's Diner, while Celia watched. That sounds horrifying. Cara was selling half priced spirits--
*squirrelly snickers*
--at
Caritas, and Derek-but-not-really was at the Devil's Nest where he got into a
fight with Eliot-but-not really. Fantastic. All right, folks, stock up on salt and don't stick around when people get weird.
AND DON'T PUNCH THEM IN THE FACE.
