Congrats on 1,000 edits
Belle, I've suddenly had a thought - and wanted to run it by you. What if I have Arcturus killed off, as planned to remove him from the Shadow storyline, move the family on etc., but Tulula made Dark preparations for just such a possibility, and brings him back - bound to the Puisseat? He has to remain in the Shadow versions of places created by the Puisseat's power, including an 'alternate' Rookery. That way the two of them get that "stuck with each other" relationship we planned to RP in the first place - She's the only one in the 'normal space' Rookery who can see/interact with him. Opinions? So they could go together to The_Rookery_-_the_Rookou-Greengrass_residence/The_Mines_of_Maybe for example, because they're generated by the Puisseat. Alex  Jiskran

"A bond stronger than friendship or love"
I was thinking that she could have discovered, in the journals he unearthed concerning his mother's part in his grandfather's murder, some research Fortuna had done, in case she need to bind the first Arcturus to this plane to torture info out of him, and since all the preparations have been left at the Puisseat, and as "Arcturus Rookou" is still relevant, she can simply 'activate' the trap his psycho mother left. We can assume that any thoughts along these lines she had were derailed, as you say, by the arrival of the children, and she might even believe that she has finally achieved clarity - and the harmony she deserves. It would be nice to bind him in such a way that he is powerless to communicate with others - so that he can only work through her. Given his personality, his first thought may be to try and drive her to suicide :S, but I believe in his convoluted manner he loves her as much as he is capable of the emotion, and certainly far more than himself.

As for Steve and Chris, I feel that is developing into an interesting dynamic in itself, with no relation to Caly. :) Alex  Jiskran

"The Moving Finger writes, and having writ, moves on"
Like you, Belle, I like the unintentional seeming presaging of this in the various RPs that have already occurred, an the 'closing of the cycle' aspect it seems to have. I believe it suits the situation perfectly as it removes Arcturus and his resources from Shadow's grasp, gives the couple a shot at a sort of life together (as good as any they might have had while both corporeal, I fear), and puts the Rookery in pretty much its entirety in the hands of the next generation, leaving Caecey, Ciaran and Draco to fight over it, with whichever of the more distant relatives dare stake a claim. It annexs the Puisseat (which is potentially the most dangerous element of the lands) and puts that completely under Tulula's purview, which in and of itself has great RP potential, I believe. So, I think we should go for it. :D I've promised WG that Shadow can kill Arcturus, so we'll set that up, and presumably Tulula will need to be nearby and get to the body quickly, possibly before life is entirely extinguished.

Auror Training
All Aurors are to attend Auror Training, please post here with your character when you have a chance. Training has not yet begun but will soon. Hope to see you there. Ki rá ( talk ) 17:40, December 14, 2012 (UTC)

Attraction of similars
Belle, I've just created a category 'BelleL chars' to put the picture of Abram Taylor in. Could you add the tage to your other chars too? I mean, I'll do it, happily, it would just feel like I was usurping your role. Alex  Jiskran

10:46, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

We band of brothers
It's not just the chars, Belle, I'm tagging the photos too, so the total is quite a bit larger. I cannot image you trying to be offensive, so I did read your statement, even the first time, as a joke. :D Alex  Jiskran 10:53, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

Sheer perfection
What you've done with Euan, Belle, is spot on. I'm trying to make sure each file, page and picture here has at least one association, and is suitably categorised, that's all. Alex  Jiskran 11:05, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

As a near-impossibility, a finite improbability
To steal from the late, great DNA (Douglas Noel Adams), it's merely a matter of calculating exactly how improbable the successful completion of the task is and then programming that into the Finite Improbability Generator, in order to create the Infinite Improbability Generator. :D I'm hoping to alert people (on the real world front) to the usefulness of them tagging their own pics as they add them, and hopefully this will be a once-only marathon. Alex  Jiskran 11:16, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

20,000 edits - the Dumbledore!
Just needed to get that out of my system, Belle. Thank you for listening. :D Alex  Jiskran 12:00, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

Great gratitude
Thanks, Belle, by tagging your own pics you've saved me a load of work. :D <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 16:47, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

Felicitous compliments of the gorging season to you!
Dear Belle, just a quick note to wish you a most merry Christmas and a Happy Hogmanay! Hope you and yours have a great holiday period, and all the best in 2013. :D <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 20:18, December 24, 2012 (UTC)



Possible RP?
I was wondering if sometime we could RP with one or both of the Taylor twins and my charrie Celesta? Rabbitty (talk) 03:29, December 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * Maybe at the ice cream place since it's summer? Rabbitty (talk) 05:00, December 29, 2012 (UTC)

I have to get off the computer now. Can we finish it later? Rabbitty (talk) 07:08, December 29, 2012 (UTC)

Carriage pending
Belle, Steve's still waiting for a vital response in the Ravenclaw carriage. :D <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 17:08, January 2, 2013 (UTC)

Arcturus and the future (sort of)
I'm sorry I haven't posted on this one yet, but new iterations keep occurring to me of how it might go. I'm about to have Arcturus arrive back at the Rookery, mortally and irreparably injured. My latest thought is - what if Arcturus I guessed, at least in part, Fortuna's intentions, and bound his bodyguard's spirit to protect him rather in the 'half-afterlife' than this one (with his consent, so not Dark), meaning that when Arcturus reappears after Tulula's spell, it will be with a 750 lb 'Jimminy Cricket' constantly by his side? Just an idea.

On an utterly unrelated topic (I trust), do we now consider Caly and Steve to be girlfriend/boyfriend? Are statements perhaps needed/useful? Where does Chris stand on all this? I'd love to run another Chris/Steve RP at some point, maybe on this delicate subject. <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 09:02, January 5, 2013 (UTC)

Complete clarity
You were absolutely right about Shadow's involvement, Belle Kunze_Estate/Sitting_Room, and I just wrapped up the post now you are 'ready to receive' :D. Arcturus was losing consciousness as he Apparated, so we'll presume he doesn't arrive anywhere people would see/meet/heal him, but rather an old refuge - say the attics in his wing. <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 09:30, January 5, 2013 (UTC)

Simpatico
Exactly, Belle - the place and the surprising sorrow. <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 09:53, January 5, 2013 (UTC)

Not your thing, I know
Any chance you could come on Chat, so we can dscuss things without leaving a permanent record? <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 10:22, January 5, 2013 (UTC)

The_Rookery_-_the_Rookou-Greengrass_residence/Arcturus'_lab-study/Fifth_Floor
Things have moved on a bit, Belle, so I'm going to pause and leave Tulula to gather her response(s) to all that has happened. :D Looking forward to seeing how she handles it, really. <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 21:11, January 7, 2013 (UTC)

To everything there is a season
The spell was designed for use in 1977, Belle, so the conflicting 'tugs' on it settled around 1986, when Arcturus was not yet 'fixed' in his "current" persona, and Izwas remembers a four-year-old filled with fun, and talks to him. :) <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran  09:41, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

Just noticed - so sorry!
Congratulations! (fanfare!)  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 09:43, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

A question of standards
You do know how teenage boys count, in terms of female attractiveness, right, Belle? Nineteen, twenty, getting-on (21-4), old (25-9), ancient (thirty), dead. :D <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 10:18, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

PS Thanks so much for the ongoing help with the pics XD (yay)

Just checking
Are you OK with this direction, Belle? Because if not, we can easily do something else. Lilly had a great idea about 'reinserting' his memories using Caecey's Pensieve. :) <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran  10:30, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

If my calculations are correct . ..
It is almost 3.30 a.m. for you. I'm utterly grateful for your tagging of pics, yet worried about quite how late I did keep you up the other day. Again, for whatever it's worth, it was delightful. :D <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 11:26, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

Adult Arcturus
I myself will go with Lilly's idea happily (and Wow! re time, by the way), Belle, but to be honest won't choose it unless you want Tulula's grown-up husband back, in spirit. So it really is your call. I just had this idea, and hoped it would be fun. :P <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 11:38, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

Because, as I recollect, you don't like Chat

Flies in the ointment, spanners in the wheel
On the grounds that 'the course of true love never did run smooth', Belle, what if Steve's TK has a negative impact on Caly's spellcasting - and learning? I mean, if he found out, he'd instantly want to give it up (the TK, I mean, not the relationship with Caly :D ). Or do you have any bumps in the road ahead you'd like to foreshadow? <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 14:10, January 15, 2013 (UTC)

Don't know if you agree . ..
I came across something I couldn't resist for Caly's (seeming) perspective on Steve - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yM2n0TnSxM4  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 19:01, January 15, 2013 (UTC)

Next steps
Can we Chat about it, Belle? <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 08:12, January 16, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, must go to work. Hope to catch up later. :) <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran  08:45, January 16, 2013 (UTC)

Chat related and adjacent
It frequently freezes, I'm afraid, Belle, and that's what it must have done on me. Good to her about the short circuit, will get back to you on the second matter. <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 09:48, January 16, 2013 (UTC)

Just wondering
Firstly, I'd just like to explain that I'm just wondering, and I don't mean to bother you. If I am bothering you, I've quite sorry. So, I was wonder why under "Other" in Chis and Caly's page, Ortygia is written Ortygia rather than Ορτυγία, when all the other names are written in Greek? --Rabbitty (talk) 05:54, January 21, 2013 (UTC)

Stray and random thoughts
Seeing the Chris/Celesta/Caly interaction, this came to mind - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ReMLVUwKmA. :) <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran  21:47, January 29, 2013 (UTC)

I could be overlooking something
I thought Celesta gave 'Ella' as her favourite nickname, and the movie is Ella Enchanted, and it's a ensemble song/dance number, which I thought would fit Caly's sensibilities. <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran 21:56, January 29, 2013 (UTC)

Not planned on my part - I was asked to have a char to share with Alyssa what I know as a player, and I didn't want to commit Draco to that role. This guy is lifted from 'The West Wing' (S03E07), played by the immortal Hal Holbrook. A

Ego - but forgivable, I trust

A matter of survival
As I like Caly hugely, I think I'd rather not have her in Lacey's vicinity. Lacey has very confused feelings where Steve is concerned, and I want to see Caly leave school with all her limbs still attached. Chris/Logan might be interesting, as would Caly/Logan. Even Avalon/Eleanor. Any of those - your call. :D

Pick a place
If you post with Avalon, I'll send Ele. I have no doubts about Caly's abilities, but Lacey is essentially a 'combat monster' with her first crush/sense of belonging all screwed up into one, a powder keg combination if ever there was. :S <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="orange" >Alex  <font face="Harrington" size="5" color="black" >Jiskran  21:42, May 27, 2013 (UTC)
