[It fizzles on to a scene of rain in a New York City Graveyard. There are tons of cameras in the surrounding area, snapping away - waiting for one person to arrive. A black limo pulls up and two people rush to Chuck's side- ]

If we can't trust the good guys to follow the rules.. who can we trust?

[[may contain spoilers from tonight's Psych, High Noon-ish]]

I should be used to this by now. Malditos incendios.

Does anybody know a good cure for second-degree burns? And a nice girl named Kasumi told me that some virus here can turn you a woman or an animal, is that true? It seems like fun.

Ah, sorry, I kind of had to disappear there for a couple of days. You probably noticed we both got pretty beat up.

I think we'll be fine, though. I'll talk to the Warden today, he might be able to do something about the Corpse Carnival. He'd better, all the shit I've done for him...

(( It's been a couple days for him as opposed to a couple months, otherwise it would make following DW canon... odd. Go flexible timelines! ))

Having a plane as a home.

Is it possible?

So I've been told that I drink too much and have no reason to do so.

Are any of you guys in Japan? I'm thinking about having a party.

Okay, so like, we're totally test dating now. The test kiss was sweet, so we're gonna try it out now for real, okay, Liet? I did some research online and here's, like, some guidelines.

1. Don't wear cologne for me, it's just grodie. Or at least make it Ed Hardy or something.

2. Hold my hand and stuff, it's like, the thing to do.

3. Don't call me hedgemuffin or whatever, pet names are tacky. As if.

4. Go get me some paluszki, like, right now. I am so, so hungry, omg.

5. idk guys, I feel like I'm missing something, but like, what? Should I make my font red since we share that color? Is being patriotic too last year?

[ooc: If any of you stalkers even have to ask at this point, reference this thread and a couple other posts, made canon by agreement.]

Ugh... Perfect timing for the AC to go out in Sumdac Tower. I'm starting to roast over here. I'm actually considering risking hypothermia and going to the Lake for a swim. Any other suggestions on how to stay cool?

I have a question, community, if you will?

Have the effects of the viruses, or their residue, ever stay longer than expected? That is, has anyone been effected, or know of something caused by a virus staying about, after the virus has 'ended'?

Harvey!

What the fuck just happened to Maggie?! You better tell me or so help me I will beat it out of you!

((oc: Tom's a ting bit piffed :3 refff ))

Hey! So, me and my friend Spain well, technically he's neutral right now... were wondering something...

Who made this thing? We wanna send them some ducks.

[There's a bump, and an annoyed swear in a distinctly Australian accent. Everything is dark, for now.]

...Dammit, Harvey. [The voice definitely sounds irritated, and then there is a sigh, and a clink of a bottle hitting concrete.]

Guess I'll just...leave it here, then! [There's a scuffle, and a grunt.]

Watch where you're going, jackass. [Another scuffle, then the phone falls out of her pocket, landing on the ground giving a cockeyed view of Maggie surrounded by some not so nice looking men. They move in on her, leering and sneering and catcalling. One moves in to grab her, and she reels back and socks him in the nose. He shouts, and gestures for the others to take over while he nurses his bloody nose.

Your friendly neighborhood blond, Australian trouble magnet is now being carted off, shouting and yelling obscenities until one just finally knocks her out.]


((fff small mini plot to get me active again DX. Have fun 8D))

VOOOOOUUUUUUUUIIIIIII!

So it really is still here, huh? Guess the Boss wasn't lying. Didja miss me too duckies? I know I didn't miss this stupid place all that much since it stopped interfering with our business but it still kind of took out the fucking joy in some things I suppose. This place still the same or what? I need to know, brats so spit it all out got it? 'Cause Boss is going on about some nonsense about how things really haven't changed in the community.

What the hell gives, ducks?

[Dumbledore is in front of a desk, in what is presumably his house; in the background, his pet phoenix seems to be squabbling with an owl over food.]

School is beginning again in a week and a half. As per usual, I am rather excited.

As per usual, the staff isn't. Neither are the students, I imagine.

Still, it will be good to be back at Hogwarts, especially after a summer where I have continually been declared a lunatic. It will be nice to be somewhere I, while considered a lunatic, am the lunatic in charge.

[He chuckles good-naturedly.]

Is anyone else looking forward to the return of the school year?

School starts up soon again! Rena's excited to go back - I wonder if Mi-chan and the others are, too!

Rena's been thinking about looking for an after-school job though...and after club activities, of course! It would be nice to find out what a job is like, and it would help around the house, too. But...I'm not quite sure just what kind I should look for, or what would be good for a girl my age.

...could the community help Rena out?
