John wasn't sure what the island normally looked like, having arrived after it changed, but he was conflicted about its current appearance. The Victorian period held one of the happier times of his life, but also one of the darkest. He was thankful that there was no Whitechapel here, already it was hard enough to be here. It seemed as if half ( Read more... )

The latest round of Island Council elections were finished, and I once again had the job of posting the results to the Compound bulletin board:
Tabula Rasa Island Council - Term 12

He fucking hated rehab and physical therapy and all that shit. It didn't matter how many times he'd had to go through it, feeling like he was building his body back from the ground up was the kind of frustrating he just wasn't patient enough to deal with. But he gritted his teeth and he took it, 'cause ending up with a bum arm for the rest of his ( Read more... )

It had been just over a month since I was displaced to this strange and mysterious island, and I found myself missing Terre d'Ange and my loved ones there more than ever. My time in Tiberium and Lucca had been somewhat different; even if I had at times despaired of ever seeing home again, I yet knew where that home was located in relation to my ( Read more... )

Dated October 15, 2011: That soft chuckle of Steve's said so much more than his words to her. "You love him bunches?" she asked abruptly, seeing no reason to dance around the real reason she'd come.

Alcuin's ballroom dance class was in full swing, as it were. During his years here on the island, he had expanded his repertoire considerably beyond the styles he had learned in Terre d'Ange - everything originating in South America, for example, had been foreign to him (though did have some similarities to Aragonian styles he had seen). It was ( Read more... )

Danny is fairly sure that even though he put Kate in holding for destruction of property a couple weeks ago, he should be allowed one free pass -- just the one. He's been looking for clothes in order to replace the ones of Steve's that didn't make it through the fire (that Danny set) and for the most part he's picking out the things Steve likes and ( Read more... )

Dated September 11, 2011: It was a reel of footage of that fateful day, that beautiful September day when all of America had been shocked. When the news had cut in with live shots of the north tower on fire only to be just in time to see another plane fly into the south tower. Report after report, angle after angle, raw footage from cameras, ( Read more... )
