[Ducks, the view you're seeing is... underwater? There are schools of fish going by, and a great stream of water in the background, with fish dotting it. And floating into the frame... a sunfish, colored a metallic blue, brown eyes shining with amusement. What the hell...?]

Hi, everyone... It's Itsuki. I'm sure you're wondering how I got here... well. I'm not sure myself.

[She turns sideways, showing off her lithe body... and shiny scales, before she circles around and looks at the camera again.]

I have no idea what happened, but... it's kinda nice here. I don't have to fret over the latest drama, or worry about how big my stack of papers is at home. I can just swim around and spend my time in peace... maybe I'll go talk to the turtles again. They're surprisingly worldly, and have some pretty good advice, though they're a little... eccentric. Not that I mind that. I've got an eccentric friend or two myself, so I'm used to it. I kind of wish the others were here, but... [She makes a short, sharp motion up; a fish equivalent of a shrug?] I'll take what I can get.

So... how's everyone else doing? Did anyone else end up somewhere... weird?

((OOC: Itsuki's swapped with Aqua. Aqua happened to be near the world of Finding Nemo, and so when Itsuki gained control... she ended up becoming a sunfish.))

I understand that as far as Precure activities in this town go, there is no obligation to tell me anything. I'm far from a full member of the team. I not only understand this, I want it that way. So I don't expect to be the first one to be told about anything.

However, it would have been nice to hear about you girls apparently adding another member while I wasn't paying attention.

So Cure Blossom or Cure Sunshine, could either of you please inform me about who the girl on the left is? Because I'm at a loss. Did she just join yesterday and is that why I haven't heard about her before?

If anyone else happens to know and can tell me, please do.

Casa de lesbian. Otherwise known as Karen's private island was now home to a group of people who were going to spend a three day weekend there. Because screw that nonsense of all of those zombies and deaths and horrible stuff going on.

As it stands, there's plenty to do. There's a modest library, several rooms set up for sleeping and/or bunking with, a beach and facilities to go either fishing or waterskiing. In short, it was an island paradise that was here to tangently connect people who had been brought to it via tragedy and/or just wanted to get away from it all.

Rooms for the boys and the girls aren't strictly monitored to be honest, but there's a lot of space so you won't be bumping into each other. And it's big enough that if you want, you can camp out as well.

Have fun, and bring your swimsuits.

(ooc: open post for anyone who would be invited, ie everyone, and just tag around and go nuts for a while. Three day weekend ending around monday-ish.)

I want everyone who was in that mall to report in their status, and the status of anyone else they know who was in the mall with them.

I'll start. Issei Ryudo and Diarmuid Ua Duibhne both confirmed as healthy and home.

So, community... I have it on good authority that today is one Yuri Tsukikage's birthday. No, I'm not telling you where I got my information- [Tsubomi's grandmother?] -other than that she was the nicest old lady. [Totally Tsubomi's grandmother.]

Anyway, the notice is far too late to actually set up anything big - I don't care who we put on the job, we'd never get done in time - but we can certainly wish her well and maybe get something small put together for her by the evening. I'm going to try and get Tsubomi and Erika together to plan something, but I don't know what we'll come up with, if anything.

That's why I want to ask - any good ideas for a celebration on maybe an hour or two's notice?

Ugh, today's been exhausting... So much to deal with already. You'd think we had a dozen different viruses at once, but... meh. I don't care about that right now. All I want is to go kick back and not worry about it. Not Tsubomi - I don't mind a little reassurance now and then to keep her functional, but once was enough - and sure as hell not any of the others.

...actually, it might be fun to roam around town and cause chaos. It's not like anyone recognizes Sunshine yet, so I can let loose to work off stress, and it won't bite the other girls. [She grins maliciously.] It's a perfect plan...

Well, not that I wouldn't take requests. Any thoughts, community? I'm feeling like a little creative violence. Maybe not blood - nobody would ever let us help again, and we kind of need that, though I'll entertain good ideas - but I'm up for just about whatever else.

[Her expression melts into a smirk that would look out of place normally... but seems just right with the girl's current air.]

Entertain me.

((OOC: Itsuki's alignment is reversed from (slightly lawful) good to (slightly chaotic) evil.))

I know time's weird for my world, but if I'm reading the date on the community right, it'll be my birthday soon! I'm kind of excited... I mean, I know it's not my actual birthday - that was a few months ago - but it'll be close enough, right?

So, what does everyone normally do for their birthdays? I'm a little curious.

[Community, you are looking at... oh, what was that new Precure's name, the one with the long golden hair that saved Hayate a few weeks back? Cure Sunshine, wasn't it? Anyway, you're seeing her apparently training. Her long hair flows out behind her as she hops from point to point, and at one point skims across a pond as if skating on it. She makes various twists and turns that would make a normal person sick, and throws out punches and kicks from time to time, plus the occasional massive sunflower-shaped shield.

And all the while, there's a huge smile on her face; like she hasn't felt this alive in months. Which, truth be told, she hasn't. So she pinballs about with glee.

Several minutes of this pass before Itsuki sighs and sits down, looking in a nearby window at her still-transformed reflection, breathing hard.]

I didn't think it would be this tiring... but I didn't think this would be so exhilarating, either. Or that my costume would be so revealing... I wonder if there's something better I can be doing to train, though. I want to practice some more...

[Comment? Make suggestions? Poke fun at?]

I might need to get this cut soon... [Itsuki puts her hands in her hair and runs them back... and back... there's no hair there, girl. You suppose that the hair she's seeing runs in twintails clear down to her ankles.]

I just never get used to this pretty golden color. Girls, what kinds of colors are normal for hair in your worlds?

It's the day of the Tanabata Festival, and Yayoi is fielding traffic to and fro from the Mysterious Library and meeting people who are coming in with their own worldhops. You may see some of her teammates around including a fairy named Pop around today, but for the purpose of it, everything is funtimes!

There's a lot of people around and arriving at the front gates of the festival grounds, there's a ton of stuff to do, such as fish catching, food vendors and other assorted games. Have a ball and mingle. Because tonight, the Smile Precure are in for the fight of their lives.

Pegasus Day is upon us as well, since Marchenland celebrates the same occasion on the same day. So try not to ride the Pop!Pegasus around too much.

(ooc: minglepost, have fun, tag around with CR etc.)

[Itsuki is pretty obviously very spooked by something; what in the world could have happened?]

Girls, I'm sure you've all seen this post by now. I specifically have four problems with it:

[A screenshot of the pan across the Heartcatch team.] One, I'm not a Precure yet, though I recognize what I know will become my form. Two, Yuri can't transform, so her being there is physically impossible. [Another still, this one of the Suite team.] Three and four. We've seen Melody and Rhythm fight, and their team is two, not four.

Are there any other discrepancies? And more importantly... what does this mean?

[Five minutes after the original posting, there's new text:] And I almost forgot, Yayoi's whole team is missing, which is five more people that should be there but aren't. Isn't that odd?

Well, that was an interesting two weeks. Honestly, I think I was much more relaxed during that time than I have been in... a long time, actually. And I had a lot of fun. If that's what I'm going to be like in a few years, I think I'd be all right with that.

Anyway, everything was great. Right until it ended, and everything was still there in my memories. There were a few things I said that... will cause problems, if they actually happened. A lot of problems.

Um... I know I haven't been here long, and a lot of you don't know me well, but I need some advice. What do I do if... [She sighs.] If I may or may not have a crush on someone I know? Someone I'm friends with, but that I'm not sure I'm close enough to if I wanted to go further?

Damn you, Yayoi.

-the excess in the budget to... wait, this isn't the minutes. What happened? [There's a girl on camera; she seems flustered. She's sitting in what seems to be a school library, with a raised eyebrow.]

Ducks...? I just want to get back to my minutes... let me off...! [Now she's getting frustrated.]
