Outside the Dorms, Wednesday Afternoon

[glacial_witch]

Merlin hadn't arrived yet, but it was time to get started. Karla, being properly female again, greeted the Reserves with a bright and cheerful smile today as they assembled in front of the dorms. "We're glad you all got our handwavey message about a change in location," she said. "We have a special activity in mind for everyone today." Her smile

Arrive and mingle

[glacial_witch]

As you do.

Don't worry, though. They've made sure they moved the food when they switched locations. There's still coffee, pastries, and sandwiches for the eating.

Where there was a Magical Reserves, there was a Raven.

Arthur arrived, given time. This was the regular fighting reserve's spot, after all.

If he was keeping an eye out for a certain wizard, once he arrived-- well, there was no easy excuse. He just was.

Tara was there and in a good mood. She hadn't heard anything from her family about visiting over the weekend, so maybe the invitation had gotten lost in the mail.

Plan Your Defenses

[glacial_witch]

Who does what? Are you organizing yourselves in any way? Put your ideas here and argue them!

Re: Plan Your Defenses

[trigons_child]

Raven was just a teensy bit nervous about this, but she knew she had to learn to use her abilities to protect, so she tried to swallow her anxiety. She was not, however, a leader type, so she waited to be told what to do.

"Okay I can create illusions, fire magic blasts, and I bet in this instance I could animate anything that looks vaguely ambulatory." Especially cookies. She was really good with cookies.

The Plan

[glacial_witch]

Lay it out here. Feel free to create subthreads for different locations if you want.

Here come the giant gummy mandibles of doom! Think you can hold them off?

Re: The Plan

[blondecanary]

"Right." Dinah was nibbling on cookies, hungry with the talk of Nummy Doom. "So, spotters on the roof again, with phones. I'm not sure how well barricades would work again, if they're really big... candy insects." She grinned. "Still, it's a start. Check-in stations at least. Ooo, teams?"

Re: The Plan

[trigons_child]

"I can observe from the air with my Soul-Self," Raven supplied helpfully.

Re: The Plan

[blondecanary]

"Yes!" Dinah grinned, then looked thoughtful. "Do you need anyone to check in on you while you do that? Or does your soul-self always come back no matter what?"

"Grrr Arrg!" (Talk to the Leaders)

[glacial_witch]

Even if they are pretending to be giant insect gummies come to life.

Re: "Grrr Arrg!" (Talk to the Leaders)

[glacial_witch]

Well, Karla was anyway. Which was why she was off to the side, gleefully stomping on things.

Re: "Grrr Arrg!" (Talk to the Leaders)

[bigdamndestiny]

Merlin most certainly did show up! Late. And bruised. And carrying a thermos of tea because, damn it, it was getting cold out and it wasn't a Reserve without it.

Just be glad there was no chance to bake while being kidnapped.

Re: "Grrr Arrg!" (Talk to the Leaders)

[glacial_witch]

Karla barely let Merlin get a good look at what was happening before she was there, arms out to give him a big hug.

OOC

[glacial_witch]

I might have giggled overmuch at wantstodirect's villains, yes.

Re: OOC

[ancientbschamp]

Gabrielle quite approves of her roomie's antics here.

And my PR alumni kids are amused as well.

Re: OOC

[wantstodirect]

Giant insect robots sounded too plausible.
