By his Excellency, Lord Sultan's request...

( Non-IC cut, video )

...Did my master enjoy my performance~?

((OOC: Dancer in Cain's court! (...yeah, rly.) With swords and fire, as promised. So, I picture her act starts out like the above clip, then it finishes like this. Magic curse skillz, you guys, magic curse skillz.))

This is fucking boring.


((OOC: Takagi means "tall tree." My Google Fu couldn't produce a clear explanation for Yumie's meaning.))

I think that hat is possessed and it should be captured and burnt.

Not only that, but I really did not appreciate it dropping on my head after it had been on so many other heads. That's how you get lice, by the way. I don't know where you all have been, and I don't want to know, either.

Well, it'd been a while since they last opened up the floodgates like this.

Kinda like the seasons around here, huh?

OH DAMNIT!! AGAIN?!?!

HEINKEL!!! WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T SHOOT THE DAMN LION!!!!


... He's mine.

Honesty's not always the best policy. Really.

--when the time comes, we will cast these thirty pieces of silver of silver into the temple and hang ourselves with this halter made of straw--

--London looks even more like hell than I expected.

((OOC: Thinking she's back in London for Hellsing WW3.))

Oh.

OH HELL NO.

There were other things I could have been doing today, City.

Fuck you, City. Fuck you.



... Heinkel?

... Riiiight.

The shelter is currently full. I suggest those still needing a bed try again at midnight, as I suspect some of these people are simply here to gawk.

All guests still here tomorrow morning are asked to wake and begin clearing out for the day at eight so church staff can begin setting up for Sunday Mass, which will be at ten. We have a new priest officiating tomorrow's service, so please be sure to welcome Bishop.

Starting today, I am beginning a fundraising drive to build a seperate building for shelter operations. The church has served well enough for the project temporarialy, but as with most churches, the building is not well suited for such use permanently. For the long term, I believe it best to have a structure with better equipped utilities.

So, today's temporary visitors? You're not only welcome to ask me questions, but I'll also be more than happy to hug you and autograph your things.

For a small fee. ♥

((OOC: Bother at will~))

Ah, this again. Let's see...

There are some I'm proud to be a member of: this one, of course, this one, and this one. ♥

Then there's this one, and this one, can't deny those, and this one. Hn. Er.

And I still object to this one, not to mention this one, too. I don't swear that much. And why the fuck do I have this one?!

... So are any of these actually having meetings today?

Heinkel... there's something I must tell you. I'm so sorry... I never wanted to hurt you, but- But these secrets have been tearing me apart inside and it's time to finally come clean! You deserve to know the truth!

I...

I've been cheating on you!

((OOC: Secret affair and family secret in one! And mostly true, but who can tell today? ^^;))

If you want to stay out of The Game then go to holy ground and shut up. Or just shut up. All this yelling and complaining is just going to draw attention to you.

But if you're really so eager to lose your heads, it's fine by me.

Honestly, people. It isn't rocket science.

I have a list of individuals who had previously expressed interest in volunteering for the New Arrival Outreach Program that I'd like to check in with to see if they're still interested.

( Volunteers )

The shelter will be opening very soon, and we intend to also offer a soup kitchen in order to provide a meal along with a place to sleep. Anyone who would like to sign up to help with the effort in donation of time, supplies, or financially is encouraged contact myself or Tony Foster. At the moment we're especially seeking people with large scale food preparation experience willing to help with planning and/or preparation in the soup kitchen. I can always be reached through the network and will be at the church later today if anyone would like to sign up in person and/or have a look at the--

[A crashing sound, like that of a person stumbling into a solid object, followed by a vague grumble of "Ow".]

-skinned my-- Wait- Where-

[Loud gasp.]

HOW DID- !!

((OOC: Action spam in the church if anyone wants. Switched with Anderson. Ought to be putting two and two together anytime now. XD))

[Voice post//Unintentional]

--I ain't here to argue about his facial features
Or here to convert atheists into believers
I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers
The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way I need Jesus
So here go my single dog radio needs this
They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes
But if I talk about God my record won't get played, Huh?
Well let this take away from my spins
Which will probably take away from my ends
Then I hope this take away from my sins
And bring the day that I'm dreaming about
Next time I'm in the club everybody screaming out

Jesus Walks...

... I hate rap.

Heinkel, I'm bringing Enrico the Chief some pants. Be back later.

I really do prefer things in their usual arrangement... and mine... but... you know, despite how other people tend to act, I don't usually think of myself as short. But having some extra inches for a little while is not such a bad thing.

This is almost a bit funny, in a way. We get so many curses to block out the sun that to have the reverse of it, at least once, seems only fair, doesn't it?

It would be refreshing if it wasn't so... hot.

( Private to Heinkel//Unhackable )

H-Heinkel? I heard you were h-here? I... um... uh... this-

[Whispering]

This is too weird.

[Another voice in the background, much like the first, but lower, inflected differently. More surly.]

You're telling me.

((OOC: See nun with two personalities. See the personalities split into two seperate people. Yep.))

Oh, for the love of... NOT THIS AGAIN.

You people are FREAKS! Especially you! WHY do you even want to know any of that, anyway?!

And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be condemned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after the LORD had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

- Mark 16:15-19

( Private )

You see, I was right. Five days now, and the work continues. No curse is this. I feel more focused, more alive, more right in my heart than I have since coming here. I was lax and lost for so long, and now I am found again. How can that possibly be a curse?

The following people are hereby accused of witchcraft:

Muraki Kazutaka
Suburu
Fran

There will still be Mass at 10:00 am tomorrow, for we shall honor our obligation, and we shall celebrate, and we shall commemorate those who have passed.

Kingdom come, His will be done.

((OOC: Strikes=private. After spending a little guarding Ky's unconscious body, Yumie got antsy, delegated the job to an NPC Inquisitor, and has been both assisting in and carrying out solo interrogation/torture sessions with NPCs and PCs for the past day or so, because boys certainly shouldn't have all the fun, and Enrico-mun needed some relief. I'm about to go to bed, but I'll catch up with all of the started comment-logs when I get up. If someone wanted to talk to me about doing one or assuming something, and I've somehow dropped your IM during the tag-juggling or missed you in any other way, drop me note about it here, or in an OOC comment in this entry.))

There are those out there calling this movement a curse.

Curse? No. This is a blessing.

Blessed are those who have at last opened their eyes to the ungodly acts that have long permeated this city. It is true we have been pulled into a realm built on dark and unnatural magics, but there is no reason any of us should enage in such things ourselves! I was taught those who serve God are charged with one purpose: to prevent the world from falling into a nothing but a pit of chaos and sin. To serve the Lord is not always easy or pretty, but we must take heart and trust in Him, and He/She shall give us the strength we need to face these tasks.

Moving on, I believe that these two women are suspect for witchery and should be brought forth for judgement as soon as possible:

Kotobuki Ran
Eliza Faust

Lastly, as a reminder:
There will still be Mass this Sunday morning! 10:00 am. Free coffee and donuts after the service.
Along with carrying out this holy mission, we must also remember our obligation and celebrate the sacrifice as He taught us.

((OOC: Accusing a couple now, and a couple more later~ Though it might be hard to tell, yeah, she's affected. Being in the City so long had kinda mellowed her.))
