[Violet can be found on a street corner, just writing in her journal.]I've always wanted to visit Paris. I've always wanted to go anywhere. My parents did a lot of traveling when they were alive. I think it was for the group they were in. They liked learning things, and taught us the value in knowledge. Suppose it's a bit different than the Paris ( Read more... )

[Spoken as faint jazz music is heard in the background.]

So the ballroom is already should anyone like to come. There's music and food and any are welcome. I'm not the very best at setting these up or announcing it, but like I said, stop by, please.

ooc: log post

So I mentioned a thirties night in my last journal entry. I'm thinking December 12th. In the ballroom. Just hors d'oeuvres, dancing, that sort of thing. I'm not the best at this sort of thing, but anyone is welcome.

Also does anyone else celebrate Hanukkah? My family wasn't the most religious or anything, but I was just wondering.

Back from the expedition. Freshly showered. I ended up throwing the dress out, blood stains and it was horribly ripped. It was awfully exciting though. Never had to fix a train before. If anyone wants it, I do have a detailed writing of everything I witnessed. I've retrieved my last commonplace book from the library from the expedition to Lente's ( Read more... )

[She's taking a break today from building. Violet has been thinking a lot lately, and she feels she needs to get this off her chest, see what others have to say.]I've been thinking a lot lately about the nature of good and evil. Things always seem so black and white. If you kill someone, you've killed them. They're gone. It's a bad thing. But then ( Read more... )

[Violet's in the lobby for once, with schematics rolled out for Dr. Brennan's x-ray machine. She's already got several of the pieces done, but she's making more notes. Her journal is open, and she's actually cheery for once.]So I really did enjoy the past few days. It was a nice relief of everything the castle has thrown at me lately. I've never ( Read more... )

[There's a soft sigh. She woke up without the blood that day. And with her memory.]

The blood is gone. But I know why it was there, now.

Also it seems I've missed my seventeenth birthday. It isn't the first time. I'm not in any sort of mood to celebrate though. I'll be in the library at the castle if anyone needs me.

[Violet was about to write something. But the blood on her hands was dripping onto the pages. Only it wasn't. There was no actual blood on her hands so when the droplets hit the pages they vanished. And it was freaking her out. So this is a very panicked sounding Violet.]So... ugh... I know people are dealing with the housing and castle and things ( Read more... )

[She think it best to try and get this out. Things have happened recently and while she's taken to sleeping in all sorts of uncomfortable places, her room simply isn't her room any more.]Think I'm finding out about this place, and the more I stay the more things keep coming up. I suppose I really should focus on my life here now. It's been five ( Read more... )

[Violet's room is a large mansion transfixed in the middle of a busy city. It easily takes up a block. Her door is wide open. There are rooms and rooms filled with objects and specialties. There's a full kitchen, several dens, and several libraries. Violet ha hrr own room to invent. There was a room full of woodwinds, though her father never picked ( Read more... )
