The Admiral appears to be running on a Julian calendar – thank God – which is pretty standard for most of us. And for those who don’t know: our new year starts at midnight in two days. So we’ve got another upcoming holiday and a bar. We could have karaoke. [He says it with the salacious, promising tone in which one might say "public sex" or "veal."]
Let me know if this sounds good. And if anyone has ideas, or wants help put things together, whatever, let me know that too. Just CC me on anything to do with this, really.

Never mind. Enjoy your celebration.

Date: 2014-12-31 09:13 am (UTC)You're not coming?
no subject
Date: 2014-12-31 09:40 am (UTC)All right. Fine. You know I got here about this time last year? Sure, I missed a few months in between, but that's a whole lot of time to get absolutely nowhere. People that came here after I did have already gotten out. I miss my friends. I miss my wife. I even miss my work, which is what got me here in the first place.
So no, I'm not really in the mood to celebrate that so I think I'm going to pass.
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 09:46 am (UTC)I got here around this time last year myself. I don't have anything to show for it either -- and like you, I need it. [Haven is not getting any better without some supernatural influence. He needs to graduate someone to help.]
I didn't know you were married. [Duke softens a little; most people didn't know that he was, too. And even considering how badly they got along, he misses his wife too.]
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 09:55 am (UTC)Yeah, well most don't. I guess. Funny, haven't really been trying to keep it secret or anything.
[As opposed to the packed full of skeletons in his closet. ... Both literally and figuratively.]
So what's your deal, then? What do you need so badly?
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 09:59 am (UTC)I know the feeling. What's her name?
It's for my hometown. The place is sort of messed up.
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 10:17 am (UTC)Elene. [There's a sigh. To puff out the emotion before it drags him away again.] Her name's Elene. What about yours? What's her name?
And ... messed up how, exactly?
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 10:25 am (UTC)It's... All right, you know how some people here have superpowers?
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 10:44 am (UTC)Yeah..?
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 10:54 am (UTC)The place I come from? The people are like that, only their powers work against them. They can't control them. People get hurt all the time.
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 11:10 am (UTC)Wait. Evidence? Seriously? I see why she goes by Evi.
So... you want to make the people from your home not have superpowers?
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 11:16 am (UTC)Seriously. That was a very awkward marriage ceremony -- "Do you, Duke, take this woman, Evidence"...
They're not really superpowers, for us. We call them Troubles, or Curses.
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 11:22 am (UTC)Well, was there a reason for that choice in name?
That's a bit ominous, don't you think? So if they aren't actually superpowers then what are they? Or, how does it work?
[private]
Date: 2014-12-31 11:26 am (UTC)It may be ominous, but it's fitting. They're curses -- like superpowers, but in virtually every case they can't be used for anything good.
