FRIDAY JULY 29TH, 2011 (Crotch Museum)

12:00 AM Goddammit, we have hostiles! Jellybean on starboard, Hot Tamales on port! WE ARE UNDER FIRE, SPRINKLES ARE BOMBARDING THE MUFFIN SHIP! "I'm doing my best to evade! Use some.. muffin rockets or something!" What does this look like, the Maltesers Falcon? This is a ferry vessel! We don't have rockets! "What the fuck does a detective movie have to do with our situation!" What? I meant, like, the Millennium Falcon! That Star Wars ship with the guns! "But you said Maltes"I WAS MAKING A CANDY PUN JUST DRIVE, WOMAN

12:02 AM she's swerving us. can't dodge all the gumdrop bullets, but with some fancy footwork we can.. do 9/11 on those wafer buiLDINGS WATCH OUT

12:05 AM "I don't think the candypiece fighters survived that" no donnie, I am sorry for asking you to fly this thing "yes, I will never fly again after this" good job on weaving between those buildings, but we need to.. touch down... we need somewhere safe "let me find that big strawberry citadel, there was a hangar high up on it"

12:09 AM okay jesus, that was.. that was a tragedy. "they'll really hate us now." god I hope no one was working there at the time. but. thank you, donnie. thank you for landing us. ..she's got a hand on the wall, leaning over, calming down. okay.

12:10 AM We're in a big hangar in the side of the strawberry tower, tallest structure by a margin. We're not far from the top, we are very high up. The walls and floor and everything are made of red with little white polka-dots, and it extends far enough downward that the cloud cover blocks my sight of the bottom. There's no obvious doors to leave the hangar, but there's a little open vent shaft. Which probably is the door, for the little gingerbread people.

12:11 AM We have to squeeze ourselves in here tight and sidle our way through a winding narrow corridor that slopes down regularly.

12:14 AM ugh man my knees are killing me. I'm not made to scoot this low for so long. "at least it smells nice in here." how does this thing not rot?

12:17 AM "you just had to jinx us, didn't you." oh my god that smell is awful. we're approaching a section that is.. definitely darker than before and we have to move so damn slowly through all this because we're too tall

12:20 AM OH FUCK FLOOR, PLEASE BE MARSHMALLOW ow Okay, the good news is, it was. The bad news is, since Donnie was so close to me when the rotten strawberry gave way, she landed square on top of me. o.e Normally, I wouldn’t complain about having her on top. But it was at least a ten-foot drop. ..that rhymed.

12:21 AM "jesus, my fucking ass…" it's a great ass, what's the problem "listen, cutie, that doesn't absolve you of making me fly that damn muffin" I'm sorry "so I'm just not gonna get up right now." oh no!!!!! :) "you can still use your hands. write in your little journal. write some descriptions or something." yes, ma'am! So we were walking through the strawberry citadel, minding our own, just focusing on getting through the little section of rot,when the rotten floor gave way and I fell down, Donnie close behind. We seem to have landed (with a thud!) in a little warehouse of sorts, with walls that clearly stretch further than the citadel looked outside. Whether this was another Door or not, I can’t tell. The marshmallow floor leads me to believe it wasn’t. Above our heads are the narrow strawberry shafts, looking like vent ducts from down here. I hear the vague hum of machinery within the fortress’ walls, and that’s all.

12:22 AM can. um. "yes?" can I get up and have a look around? "you want me to get off of you?" ...give it another few minutes, please. .w.

12:28 AM "so. we're on another rabbit hole adventure." yeah... :) "do we actually, like, know how to find anything here? like the cipher. if we have to find the cipher, do we know how?" well. the last few times, we've kinda just been going with the flow? it might have something to do with staying in Xanadu. if we have the chance to return to Earth, instead stay. "that's your best guess?" yeah. we didn't really think about it the other times? but we always hit the cipher after being in here for like a whole day. "that's true."

12:38 AM Alright, we're up. We're up and about. There are lots of tall metal shelves around, not even organized in any set orders. Some of them are really tall, others are just the right size, some of them are filled with cheese, others with ham, and even some with milk floating in invisible glasses. Nothing is spoiled here, it looks picturesque, looks ideal.

12:42 AM There’s some sort of gigantic strawberry structure up ahead.

12:43 AM The vents above our heads hit this wall and then sprawl down. It looks like a vertical maze, with an entrance being in front of us. There’s a licorice ladder in this vent. I guess that explains how the vertical aspect of the maze is possible. Unless you wanna meander along more marshmallow warehouse, I say we climb up.

12:47 AM I found a little airborne alcove. Taking the time to write, as I can’t really write much on the ladder.

12:57 AM gravity shifted more than a few times. We’d be climbing up, and suddenly, we’d fall. ..up. The strawberry would change colors a lot, too. We’re currently resting in an indigo alcove. I’m not sure how much longer we have to go, but I’m fairly certain we’re close to where the ceiling was.

1:04 AM OH GOD NO NO NO I GOT YOU C’MON OH GOD PULL PULL PULL

1:05 AM Donnie found the exit to the shafts and a big bear was ready to grab her. Fucking Eldritch Bear! What's this asshole even doing here? I got her, though. We're hiding back in the shafts as it roars.

1:06 AM We found a different exit. …it saw us. Hiding

1:08 AM Okay, I have an idea. If you go up that end, and I go up this end, we can gang up on him and frying pan-slash-guitar controller him to death! "I miss my rifle..." Ready? Break!

1:09 AM GO GO GO GO HEY wdfinsreijfd WHOA don’t hesitate WHACK WHACK WHACK KARRACK

1:11 AM The bear sprouted wings of fire and flew away. So the strawberry climbing-wall put us out in a damp damp cave, with sticky spiderwebs coating the walls. Bundles of creatures wriggle in the web. There's someone else in the room with us. It's the creepy man with the red jacket. I've seen him before. I saw him the last time I encountered the Eldritch Bear. o_o

1:12 AM Who are you? "We have all been digested here." ..what He’s gone. He just disappeared. We were looking right at him; he disappeared! Fuck it. We’re not sticking around to figure out what he was referring to.

1:14 AM "Oh! I have this!" what BAM bright light in my face thank you for remembering your helmet! "There's so many little things crawling on the walls." They have too many legs. o_e "But they're scared of light!" Yeah, and I'm scared of them. "Stick behind me, then."

1:17 AM no path splits. just one long walk. it's not too narrow, but I'm not going near those walls.

1:20 AM THERE! A LIGHT! A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE CAVE THAT'S FIRE but there's no warmth coming from it. Donnie, walk through it! "What, why me?" You're wearing armor and shit!!! "..the fire's not real. It's just a light source. Feels like wind." Huh! "Making me test it out for you is going on the List, you know. The List of things I'm gonna punish you for later." Whatever! We both know that I love that! "We do. Did the fire lead us to a different world?"

1:21 AM A museum on fake fire. Devoid of visitors, besides us. ..the objects on display are all genitalia.

1:23 AM Every room presents meat and two veg, or lady particles. Well, I mean, only a few of them are human. Most of them are other creatures’. They look much less familiar. Some of them look like mouths with teeth. Or a tongue extending from between legs. "That one looks like a corkscrew! That one's got barbs on it!" Donnie’s finding it fascinating. I find it… weird, but interesting, sure. So. Xanadu has a crotch museum. ..sure?

1:38 AM Wait, we hit a new wing of the museum. ..this is all arms. Of all sorts.

1:50 AM ..torsos.

2:03 AM This wing’s all heads. o_e

2:05 AM creepycreepycreepycreepycreepy

2:14 AM HOW LONG DID A DAMN MUSEUM WING NEED TO BE "WHY DO SOME OF THE EYES FOLLOW US" I DON'T WANT TO KNOW "IS IT JUST A FUN LITTLE TRICK" I DON'T WANT TO KNOW

2:39 AM creepycreepyEXITENTERhallway of doors oh the doors lead to classrooms, of course they do, THIS DAMN PLACE AGAIN the PA speakers are playing soft new-wave grooves

2:42 AM We're walking down the long hallway, looking in every room we pass. Every classroom is completely empty. No desks, no chairs, just big empty spaces stared down by black chalkboard.

2:43 AM The music is on a loop. I mean, probably. There's no vocals, just a moody instrumental. It adds to the vibes and is the only good thing I'm feeling.

2:47 AM The classrooms down here are starting to change. These ones all have exactly one desk in them, in the center of each room. The room numbers are in the 100 range.

2:50 AM The echo of our footsteps grows louder and more delayed.

2:54 AM Rooms with two desks, starting from room 200.

3:02 AM Three deskfour that one had four. The numbers jumped from 302 to 403. And the echoing has grown so loud and delayed that it actually sounds like people walking all around us.

3:05 AM Five desks.

3:14 AM ..still five. 599 went to 5001. Donnie keeps turning around to look at something. There’s nothing there.

3:20 AM A thousand five-desk rooms. So many doors. The footstep echoes are converging into one single echo, one single pair of footsteps. It's focusing behind us.

3:23 AM The hallway ends on a single door on the far wall. It's made of cold steel. Goodbye, rooms of five. It's time to enter the fifth level.

555555555555555555555555555555555555555555 Factory (1) The walls are cast in a shadow so thick we can touch it. Donnie's headtorch doesn't even penetrate it. The floor is metal, coated in a layer of rust. The sound of heavy machinery is grinding from the next room. We’re back in the factory.

Factory (2) "Wait." ? "Don't you get that feeling? Holding back your bones. Constricting your chest. That feeling like we don't actually want to dwell here." I do. "But do you feel the other feeling too?" I do. The rumbling I feel in my feet, of something growling many miles below us. Something that's trapped here, something that resents every day it spends in Xanadu's bowels. Biding its time. Plotting its wrath. "Something we might actually want to find." It's not as strong as the trepidation, but I feel it all the same. "Okay. Just making sure we're on the same page." I think we are. "We can continue now. Into the mouth of madness."

Factory (3) We step into the large empty chamber. Among the shadows that are the walls slide shadows formerly known as men. The Victims kneel, their faces to the ground, both cowering and praying. The moment my rumbling foot stepped through the door, I could clearly hear a voice speaking. "Sixty-nine days. Sixty-nine days. Sixty-nine days. Keep time. Keep time. Keep time. Hold my insides in place. Hold my insides in place. Hold my insides in place. You will not break me. You will not break me. You will not break me. I will break you.” I can remember it in any voice I like, but I cannot explicitly remember what the original voice was that said it. All I really know is that the voice was.. foreboding. No distinct pitch or accent. Sounded like a tree, actually. If a tree had a voice. I look around and see a man in the room with us, transparent, his outline bleeding into the shadows. He looks like me. There is no one else in this room. There is another doorway.

Factory (4) This is a steel platform suspended above a void, a railing between us and the drop. We overlook trains speeding off into the distance, tall and featureless razors. They ride into electricity, setting fire to their trailing cars and spaghettifying into the horizon. Suddenly, neon shoots back to us from that gold distance. Donnie gasps. This neon is harmless, but the factory brings pain. The pain surges through our heads and the factory laughs at our stable forms. There’s no comfort in the eldritch. there’s no comfort like the eldritch.

Factory (5) The railing shakes as something steps out of the shadows towards us. It's the man in the theatrical sadface mask. His outline, too, bleeds out whisps of color that feed the walls. He makes staggered steps. "I know what you are doing." Uh. Hey! Omega's your name, right? "I know that someone else is heading for the seventh Cipher, and you are heading there to stop them." They're on the way, then. They found a rabbit hole. "I know how you fight. I know that you are not ready." For the bikers? "For what's to come." Here comes Omega, wielding a sword of fire and a smashed bottle of whiskey. Donnie's relying on her frying pan. I've got my Tiger Stripes. There's not much room to maneuver here. We've got to just.. try.

Factory (6) HE'S GRABBED TIGER STRIPES OUT OF MY HANDS "This? This is your weapon? It has a soul in it. I can feel it wanting to give you enough adrenaline to bash my skull in. Not bad." CRACK he snapped it in half and threw the pieces into the void below "Not good enough." YOU SON OF A BITCH

Factory (7) He’s chasing us down upside-down chambers with sawblades breaking bone noise in rhythms playing from factory speakers there are no legsteps when there is no chance

Factory (8) He has me cornered. Donnie slipped away, and he came after me. "You fight like all you know is self-defense and adrenaline. You have no skill. You have gotten this far because the situation has not called for more. But the gods have long been talking about you, and I don't just mean the Fears." step. step. step. "If I kill you now, it just might free the Beast inside. That's a risk I need to take." raising his swords. BONK "FUCK" SLAM! "I'M SORRY" SLAM! WHACK! "I'M S" WHACK! WHACK! WHACK! WHACK! Donnie stands over his dead body, skull a mangle. "You already freed the beast inside, bitch." Her frying pan is bent, dripping with blood and grey matter. "You gave me a reason." >__< "C'mon, Jordan. You heard him; the bikers are on the way to the Cipher. We've got work to do."

4:23 PM The factory sent us through a corridor of fast-spinning clocks before we reached a glowing white doorway. …WAIT OH GOD OH MY GOD OH GOD cxjgsdffjdc THIS IS NOT FAIR NOT RIGHT AFTER LOSING TIGER STRIPES WE’RE IN FUCKING DOGSCAPE

4:44 PM I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS

4:50 PM FUCKING DOG EVERYWHERE I HATE THAT TAIL OVER THERE I HATE THAT MOUTH IN THE GROUND I HATE THAT FLEA THERE THAT MOUNTAIN OF BUTTS REALLY SUCKS ASS

5:01 PM WHERE THE FUCK ARE WE SUPPOSED TO FIND A DOOR HERE

5:19 PM IT’S A GODDAMN FRIDAY NIGHT I’M SIXTEEN AND CUTE; I SHOULD BE SPENDING THIS NIGHT AT SOME MOVIE THEATER “WATCHING” A HORROR FILM WITH, LIKE, MY GIRLFRIEND OR SOMETHING THAT'D BE DONNIE. DONNIE, YOU'RE MY GIRLFRIEND IN THIS SCENARIO. OKAY? WE’RE BOTH ATTRACTIVE AND DASHING TEENAGERS, AND IT’S A FRIDAY NIGHT. WE SHOULD BE SPENDING IT “WATCHING” A HORROR FILM. AND BY “WATCHING,” OF COURSE I MEAN IGNORING IT AND MAKING OUT. LIKE THEY DO IN THOSE OLD FILMS. BACK WHEN LIFE WAS BALLS. AT FIRST I WOULD BE THE DUDE WHO’D ACTUALLY GO TO A HORROR MOVIE TO WATCH IT, AND DONNIE WOULD BE THE SWEET LITTLE MARY JANE WHO’D COME TO ASK ME OUT BUT SHE’D SEE ME THERE WITH SALMACIS, OUR SCIENCE TEACHER, AND IT’D BE AWKWARD. THEN AT THE CLIMAX OF OUR TEENAGE LIVES, DONNIE WOULD WORK UP THE COURAGE AND ASK ME TO THE, LIKE… ENCHANTMENT UNDER THE SEA DANCE SOCIAL. AND I’D AGREE TO IT. AND DONNIE AND I WOULD GO TO THE ENCHANTMENT UNDER THE SEA DANCE SOCIAL THING, AND MARTY MCFLY WOULD SHOW UP AND PLAY “JOHNNY B. GOODE” AND THEN THE MOVIE WOULD END. AND ALL THE 1950S PEOPLE IN THE CROWD WITH THEIR 1950S HAIRCUTS AND 1950S DIALOGUES LIKE “KEEN” AND “SWELL” AND “THE BOMB HAS BEEN PLANTED” WOULD LOVE THE MOVIE AND TALK ABOUT IT TO THEIR CARS OR WHATEVER. what the fuck am I even talking about anymore Oh hey a Door.

5:24 PM We’re oh fuck it’s dark stumbling light switch oh hey light switch

5:25 PM We’re in a forest. …with a random light switch on a tree that actually works. It turned the sun on. o_o That’s kinda funny. Light switch on a tree that turns the sun on. Kinda surreal.

5:28 PM Still following a path, always following a path. Whose path are we even following? The bikers will have been on, like. Bikes. And we'd have seen them. Whatever. It beats hiking through the undergrowth.

5:33 PM ..can't believe he broke tiger stripes. I also can't believe tiger stripes lasted so long, but I took that as a sign, y'know? It was a gift from God or whatever! "Come, my child, and raise this holy piece of plastic high, and thy will shred thine fingers to holy Bulls on Parade in my name! And when thy get to mine Heaven in the afterlife, all mine angels and cherubs and seraphim will chant, as one: YOU ROCK! FULL COMBO!" it's fucking bullshit.

5:40 PM The lights are flickering. Well, the sun. The sun is flickering. Shit, I hope the lights don’t go out before we find our way out.

5:42 PM LIGHT SWITCH HITTING …I JUST TURNED THE SUN OFF. Sorry, gamer’s instinct. See the lights fading, hit the nearest light source, maybe the lights will go back to normal. There’s a Door there anyway. What was even the point of this place? To make me look like an idiot?

5:45 PM This is a shed with walls made of lamps. "Is your. Is your heart just not in the descriptions now?" Well, what would you call it? "The walls are! Made of! ........lampshades. It's the material that, y'know, lampshades are made of." There's a wooden door. Not a Door door, but a shed door. What's outside?

5:46 PM ..oh my god hello beautiful highway. "Well, this actually looks more like a motorway. English. There’s a difference." What? How can you tell? "The road sign says Eastbourne. Hey, there are bikes on the side of the road!" What! There's two. These look like the same sort that the bikers had. "Is anyone around? Are they having a piss or something? ..the bikes are soaked in blood." Who cares! Let's take them!

8:25 PM Okay. So. We rode for a little bit before we caught up with two bikers. It was the leader, and the big muscle-y one. They had parked in the middle of the motorway to see who was coming up. They were surprised to see it was us, and we stopped to talk to them! They had been in the rabbit holes all day, in different worlds than we had, and along the way they'd lost their other two friends, they were still touchy about that. We did apologize for using their friends' bikes, but the leader said it was alright as long as we were here to help with the Cipher. I looked at Donnie, she looked at me, and we... said yeah. Yeah, we're here to help. So we all rode, down the magical motorway, for 200 miles. It was pretty gorgeous. Trees on either side of us gave way to reveal rolling hills with multi-sun sunsets, distant streams, farms of insect animals, giant ducks flying overhead, big mounds, cobblestone walls and little padlock gates... it was nice, it was nice. Then we approached a giant Door, gaping wide over the motorway, and barreled right into thick snow, stopping our bikes and sending all of us flying off. The sky in this world is white, with a black grid like on a map. Snow doesn't fall, it just already coats the ground. And even the bikers didn't want to try to get their bikes across this, so they just took to walking it. Donnie and I huddled together behind them. At first we weren't sure about where we were, it could have just been another regular rabbit hole world, but then we noticed the giant spidercloud in the distance, and sporadic flashes of lightning around us. We were in the Cipher Realm. And it was during a burger meal that we were all ambushed by warriors in thick bundles of clothes (all I could make out for their physical description is their beanies had holes for two horns on their heads). They pointed flaming sticks at us and demanded to know what we were here for. And the bikers were blunt: "We are here to kill the Cipher." So we were all restrained, zipties around our arms, and led some distance to a cold stone structure. Now we are in prison cells, each our own. There’s a giant blob monster keeping watch over us. And we were each given a piece of.. parchment, with the same message on it: "Good cavaliers, Your metal horses have been captured for the use of the imperial army. You have no hope of returning home, and we will put you to death for your trespass, so you truly only have one option: You must accomplish what you came here to do. Kill me, or die trying. The truth is, I have been waiting here for challengers such as yourselves who know their role in this war. I have known my role for all of my long life. This barren No Man's Land has been maintained for this role, and my platoons have been trained for my defense with proper knowledge of this battle's greater context. They are cultured, cultivated, and noble. Can you say the same? In the name of good sport, I have provided each of you with accommodations for the night, as your arrival here cannot have been comfortable. I want your battle with me to involve you giving your all, not opponents plagued with fatigue. You are thereby encouraged to sleep for the night, as you have much to do on the morrow. In my Realm, I have stationed eight challenges and five preparatory battles. You are to perform the challenges to gather the keys that unlock my throne room. The preparatory battles are for good show. As no doubt mighty warriors yourselves, you must understand.At 8 AM, your cells will unlock. Rest well, good cavaliers. I expect a worthy final fight." This is, obviously, a lot more involved than the others had been. I fear we might actually be locked into this one. Maybe we can do the challenges and get into the throne room before the bikers do? Talk to the Cipher. It sounds like he's perfectly capable of dialogue. Explain our situation. He'll understand. Right?

(Attached: "The trials of the Hords Creek Lake Bikers on their quest into the Xanadian Heartlands involved several worlds that were traversed by road, offering them little resistance, and then one hideous world that they had assumed was a long dark tunnel to drive through. Halfway through the tunnel, a liquid wall of blood clots and viscera rushed in behind them at a faster speed than their bikes could go, and it dawned on them that this was the inside of a giant body. Knowing they would not make it to the other side of the tunnel in time, the two less able-bodied bikers were asked to give themselves that it may stay the flood. And, likewise, knowing the importance of their group's goal, this was agreed to. It was swiftly regretted once the two sacrifices were inside the blood, being eaten alive by white blood cells like hungry piranhas, but this did in fact keep those cells busy while the other two rode their way out, steel-faced to the muffled sound of screaming. As the bikes were inorganic material, they were rejected and pushed out the Door with them. I.. felt it necessary to memorialize those two.")

Character Intro: Aoide (Kingdom of Ichor)

Nicknames- Lady Cadence by the people of Olympius

amore mio by her mother

Age- 19 (immortal)

Location- Boeotia, Olympius

Personality- She's a true artistic individual that prides originality above everything else. She's also quite enterprising- finding it natural to be in a leadership role despite being soft spoken. She doesn't mind when she's refered as being a diva, as most talented songtresses are! She's a lesbian & is in a relationship.

She has the standard abilities of a goddess except shapeshifting. As the goddess of voice & song, her other powers/abilities include audiokinesis, having super sonic hearing, and being able to hit a vocal pitch that can shatter adamantine coated glass.

Aoide is the oldest daughter of her mother Lyrikós (Titaness of voice & song). She has two younger sisters- Melete (goddess of thought & meditation) and Mneme (goddess of remembrance).

She lives in the state of Boeotia in a mansion built out of marble & ivory with gold accents. The foundation is held by 12 Greek columns, representing the 12 notes of a voice. The color scheme inside is cream, beige, powder blue, blush pink, glittery silver, and periwinkle- complete with many silk & satin curtains on the high arched windows. The marbled floors are spotlessly polished while her bedroom floors are covered in soft white mink carpeting. Aoide sleeps in a large canopy bed. She has her own personal recording studio built in the basement as well as a concert hall room. She has pets- a poodle (a girl) named Belladonna), a maltese (a boy) named Massimo, and a pegasus (a girl) named Sonata, who's usually Aoide's mode of transportation.

She can play the harp, lyre, & piano.

Her fav. jewelry accessories which she always wears are her white gold diamond studded music note shaped earrings and the white gold charm bracelet (with music note shaped charms). Her mom & sisters have matching ones too.

Go-to drinks for her include martinis, cosmopolitans, champagne, limoncello gin cocktails, a costa del sol (a drink made with white rum, club soda, lemon juice, sweet vermouth, & sugar syrup), sparkling water (with mint & lime), and toasted marshmallow milkshakes. Her usuals from The Roasted Bean include a large cinnamon chai creme frappuccino & an iced black tea lemonade.

Most mornings after she wakes up, Aoide will do a series of vocal excercises followed by a session of acupuncture and tai chi.

Her favorite thing to eat for breakfast are the spinach egg white fritattas and lightly toasted bagels (topped with butter and cream cheese). She also likes her mom's ricotta pancakes (topped with whipped cream and caramel sauce) & Earthly Harvest's vanilla almond cereal (with soy milk).

In the pantheon Aoide's friends with Méli (goddess of bees & honey), Eleutheria (goddess of liberty), Pandaisia (goddess of banquets), Ganymede (god of homosexual love & desire), Phaenna (goddess of jewels), Zephyrus (god of the west wind), Aerin (goddess of the ethereal), Pasithea (goddess of hallucinations & relaxation), Nephele (goddess of clouds), Apollo (god of the sun, music, poetry, healing, medicine, archery, plague, light, & knowledge), Móda (goddess of fashion), Peitho (goddess of persuasion & sensuality), Iris (goddess of the rainbow), Paregoros (goddess of soothing words), Eupraxia (goddess of well-being & success), Pothos (god of longing & yearning), and Ailuros (goddess of cats & warfare). Aoide doesn't mind Pheme (goddess of fame).

She hasn't been in contact with her former best friends (The Muses) in nearly a century! Most people don't know that M9 used to be The Harmonies- with Aoide being an honorary member and contributing songwriter to many of the songs that they ended up using as M9. She prefers not to dredge up the past & instead co-exist in the world with them. Aoide makes sure not to show up as the same time as them at gold carpet events.

Whatever main radio stations that aren't in the music god's grasp, Aoide owns. She also owns the 2nd largest & well known record company- Platinum Hall Records. Two of her most successful artists are Pale Blu (a nephelai- cloud nymph) and O (Orithyia- an oread, mountain nymph). The Gypsy Belles (the seasonal goddesses) are also signed to the label. Aoide herself hasn't released music of her own except a duet she did with her mother- an operatic orchestral song called "Lacrime Agrodolci", which is a semi-biographical account of her mom's experience during the Titanomachy. The song was nominated at the Golden Laurel Awards for Record of the Year, but lost to M9's "Watercolor Dreams."

She really likes the warm buttery croissants from The Bread Box.

For other work Aoide models for/endorses Persuasions, Stella Ferrea, Maison du Drame, No. 3 & Co., Graces' Glam, Paloma, Diamond Ave., & Euryphaessa. She's currently working with Philyra (and her Olmorfia cosmetics brand) to release a themed make-up palette, Aoide's also thinking about releasing her own parfum.

She loves wearing the Luxuria shimmering body oil in "Sunkissed."

Aoide has a girlfriend, a siren named Philomela. They've been together for a year and made their public debut at the Olympian Gala. She loves her girlfriend's sultry voice, mesmerizing long blue black braids, & the breathless feeling she experiences after kissing her soft full lips.

Her favorite dessert from Hollyhock's Bakery are the cinnamon rolls. She also likes her mom's tiramisu, coconut gelato, white peach tart, & almond semifreddo.

She's starting a growing collection of jeweled Diamond Ave. clutches- so far having the violin shaped one and the boombox shaped one.

Aoide made the best dressed list at the Olympian Gala, where the theme was "Celestial Bodies." She wore a high waisted floor length off-the-shoulder shimmering ivory tulle gown with a 10 ft train, the bodice being lined with pearls and diamonds, and custom made platinum heels. Her hair was in its signature high bouncy ponytail and her make-up kept up with the galatic theme with shimmering silver, dark blue, & violet eyeshadow, jeweled eyebrows (using face jewels), and iridescent lipgloss. She completed the look with oversized white gold diamond studded celestial drop earrings from Stella Ferrea.

Some of her favorite meals include lemon chicken piccata, shrimp fettuccine alfredo, margherita pizza, osso buco, tomato basil soup, and caprese pasta salad. She also likes the grilled chicken sandwich combo from Olympic Chef.

In her free time when she's not writing songs or working on music she enjoys ballroom dancing, ballet, going to the cinema, pottery, going to the museum, pottery, cloud surfing, going to the spa, sunbathing, reading, going to the opera, shopping, & painting.

"Singing doesn't necessarily have to be perfect for it to be magical!"

McDonalds, vacations, carrd, and short hiatus notice

The topic of delicious food for foodies: Not long ago I enjoyed a tasty mcdonalds :3 I decided to pass on this month's happy meals as they were uno carrds as I already play uno with friends on ToonTown so I'll wait until there's a good happy meal available for next time :3 I do miss some of the old happy meals tho, I remember they were good when I was a kid. At least the food's still great tho, I've always loved the chips and always go for a large size X3 Recently I had that with chicken mcnuggets and a maltesers mcflurry :D I do love smarties mcflurries still, but I thought I'd go for a little bit of a change for once :3 unfortunately irn bru was all sold out so I got a fruit shoot too. Dang, fruit shoots use to be good too, it's a shame how good things what's the word..deprove? y'know like..the opposite of improve-y'know what, nevermind.. •_•; Anyway it was still a good meal, I should go back to mcdonalds more I loved it alot as a kid :3 now I love both mcdonalds and kfc ^w^ kfc definitely has the best chicken ever ngl, but I'm limiting myself to once a month because I'm keeping an eye on my weight so I don't gain any. But hey I'll get to go again this month cos a month has already passed ^w^ Today I enjoyed going out for an ice cream at the new ice cream shop in town :D I got a unicorn ice cream that's pastel pink and cyan, it was pretty and tasted like candyfloss ^w^ It also came in a cone with bubblegum sauce and a wafer, it was delish! ^w^ My friend and I enjoyed chilling on the bench chatting and having our ice creams :D One thing I love about ice cream shops is that they always sell the best candies, and this one looks like it comes with really cool slushie flavours! :O marshmallow flavour, candyfloss flavour, bubblegum, parmaviolets, ohh there was just so many interesting flavours! X3 I'll know to go there for a slush when it's nice and hot this summer :3 I look forward to trying them :D I love trying all kinds of sweet things, I have a sweet tooth and love all kinds of sweets and food in general :3 Maybe I could be a candy critic, would you like that? ^-^ Lemme know if you're interested and I can review all kinds of candies for ya! :D maybe even drinks too ^w^ Friendship topic because friendship is everything: Today I went to the karaoke, I'm tryna get into the habit of going every thursday as I'm a very shy person and I need to come out my shell more and make some local friends <:3 I have lots of online pals (love you guys) but I need more offline pals too. Thing is, it's harder to make friends in the offline world cos I'm alot more shy QwQ I tend to avoid making the first move, but I do enjoy the karaoke and most people I know in the offline world are acquaintances, I do wish I could be friends with some but uh..small talk sucks. XwX I really like chatty people both online and offline, so it feels nice to have good conversations with folk as it can help you grow closer to them :D good long convos also helps discuss what things you both like so you can share interests or recommend them something you think they'll love ^w^ I was actually thinking about going to the karaoke next week so that I could make some time to introvert after a good outing with a friend, but I figured it's better that introverting can wait cos I really do need to meet more peeps and hopefully turn some of my acquaintances into friends. I really wanna make local friends so not only we can have fun and enjoy ourselves, but I'd love to go on fun outings and maybe travel the world together, I think it would be amazing to travel with offline pals again ^-^ I kinda miss doing that as unfortunately I kinda lost touch with all my old local friends in the past :c Hope they are well tho, maybe we'll meet again someday.. ^-^ But yeah one of my dreams is to travel the world, maybe when I make enough friends, maybe we can all go on a fun vacation abroad one day ^w^ I think that would be amazing plus it's nice to share good things with someone you love aswell as it's more special that way :3 But yeah even though I don't really know the people very well at the karaoke place, I still have fun and enjoy those little convos here and there ^w^ I like to go up and dance to songs that I like, there was a few people who really liked my moves and said I was a good dancer, I was thankful and I really appreciated their kind words :3 I'm less shy to dance but more shy to sing <X3 but I'm tryna come out of my shell more so that's good :3 Shopping! Recently I went clothes shopping because I needed some holiday clothes. Why? Because this november I should hopefully go on my first vacation in SO LONG like it's literally been so many years since I last been on an actual vacation, I think I could really do with some.. XwX; But yeah I'm really happy that I'm finally gonna go on my first vacation abroad in almost 2 decades, I'll be sure to let you guys know when I'll be on hiatus during then :3 I'm like a swallow, I love the idea of migrating south for the winter UwU I wanna escape the cold and go somewhere nice and hot during the winter, I also hope that during that time in the winter I'll have some friends that I could maybe go on vacation with <:3 I absolutely despise the cold we get here so I really hope I get to go somewhere nice and warm to avoid most of Scotland's harsh winters. Here it's fine in the summer but winter? NOPE! But yeah I'm loving my new vacation clothes so I'm hoping I'll get to go travelling more often :3 especially abroad cos the world really does fascinate me, it's a big world out there and there's so many places to go to and so many places that I haven't explored yet, I'd love to go out there and see the world, I wanna see all the cool places, plants, animals, shops, buildings, everything! And I've always wanted to see what tropical beaches are like, I dream of having fun with all my friends going around the world together ^-^ And if I were to achieve that dream, well..I would be the happiest person alive! ^w^ As I like to say, a good future always makes up for a bad past, so I'm working real hard for a good future! I want future me to be full of joy and bliss, and hey if future me is reading this right now, hai :3 did you manage to follow some dreams? if so, that's amazing! but if not, don't worry you still have time to achieve them all UwU Either way, keep up the good work future me, you're doing great! But yeah it's nice to get new clothes :3 Carrd! Oh yeah I have a carrd now! TwT /pos /pr Check it out it's pretty awesome :3 https://hazelthevixen.carrd.co/ Some of yous may of noticed I've been joining other sites to get my works out there more so there's that aswell UwU Okii quick update before I forget: I'll be taking a short hiatus starting from the late 3rd of may and ending in the late 5th of may. I can't guarantee this will be the exact time I will be starting and ending hiatuses tho, as I may take a longer hiatus if I wanted sooo no promises oki? I will be away from social media to enjoy peace away from haters and have fun without the boring haters getting in the way. I'll also be focusing on getting some of my projects done, I especially gotta remind myself to get that fursuit ready before halloween.. ^-^; I need to try and finish alot of my art projects and I'll see if I can fit in a nice lovely beach day aswell :3 I will be offline on social media for a short while, but I'll still be on discord so dw! my discord buddies can still chat to me whenever ^w^ Call meee X3 Maybe if you want we could play wildcraft together or simply enjoy drawing and screensharing :3 Oki dat's all baaiii :3

Please be nice when commenting! I refuse to be criticised so please accept that. If you're gonna be mean, don't say anything at all. Thankies for checking out my post! Meep meep! ヽ(◕ヮ◕)ﾉ I'm on other places too! ^-^

welcome to ethereal hollow, elsa ellie winters ! enjoy your stay and remember, those dreams are just that ; dreams !

OUT OF CHARACTER

Stella, 28, GMT +1, she/her

INTRODUCE YOUR CHARACTER

dreams of ice and snow powers are becoming more and more vivid for ellie winters. still just quick flashes, they should be nothing more than dreams, but they feel so real. the librarian has always been known to be gentle & astute, however at times can be reticent & anxious. usually spotted in nature park playing with her maltese puppy. but their long blonde hair, soft-spoken voice, and tendency to hum to herself always has them standing out. [ frozen & elsa. 25. ciswoman / she/her. victoria pedretti ]

FAIRYTALE LIVES

Growing up was a lonely and fearful time for Elsa. Taught from an early age to fear and conceal the magic that flowed from her hands, instead of learning to control it and embrace who she was. Once her parents died and it was only her and the sister she had been forced to push away left, it was only a matter of time before Elsa lost control. For a time it seemed like her powers may isolate her from the people of Arendelle entirely. She was frighteningly close to losing herself to the idea that she was a villain, dangerous.

Thankfully, with the help of Anna, Elsa broke through the wall of fear she had built around herself and began learning to embrace her powers. There was still a long journey of healing to go on, Elsa didn’t suddenly bloom into a socialite overnight, but small changes were being made. As queen she tried her best to be there for her people and prove that she could be trusted again. The same was true when the enchanted forest was discovered and Elsa passed the role of Queen of Arendelle to Anna. Things felt like they were finally falling into place.

Still, as her life felt like it was settling around her, there was something else that began preoccupying Elsa’s mind. The villains locked away and left in the prison to rot, no chance of redemption or attempts at rehabilitation. Elsa was painfully self-aware to just how close she could have been to becoming a villain herself, falling down that path and ending up banished, never seeing her friends or family again. She had a lot of empathy and mixed feelings regarding the prison, and had begun looking into some sort of compromise where the villains were given opportunities for self-improvement.

CURSED LIVES

As far as Elsa knew, Ethereal Hollow was always her home. Her childhood had again been a lonely one, having no siblings and parents who were never around, and she was left to her own devices. Elsa was often anxious, but without any clear knowledge of why. It was as though she could feel something inside her, something that could cause harm and destruction if it was ever let out. She was told she just had an active imagination, being a child, and soon learned to keep these irrational worries to herself.

Another thing she could never quite shake was the sense that something, or more accurately someone was missing from her life. She sometimes dreamed of a girl around her age with red hair, feeling an instant connection and sense of recognition, but would forget about these dreams upon waking up. The dreams weren’t always pleasant, other times she would be plagued with nightmares of losing control, people dying, the world freezing over… Those were dreams that stuck with her the entire day when she had them.

Once she grew up Elsa went to school to become a librarian, and stayed in the town she had known her whole life when it came time to get a job. She lives with her dog Marshmallow in an apartment by the library. Marshmallow is an emotional support dog and quietly sleeps under her desk in the library while she’s working.

AESTHETICS / MUSING / HEADCANONS

Headcanons:

Elsa is a lesbian. She realized when she was very young, but didn’t officially come out until her early 20s. Apart from the subtle pride pin on her work lanyard she doesn’t call much attention to the fact, but she’s not ashamed either, just an inherently private person.

Her favorite part of her morning routine is stopping by the coffee shop to get an iced coffee. It’s difficult for Elsa to get through her day efficiently without the assistance of caffeine.

She’s good with kids and enjoys helping them find whatever book they want at the library, but she doesn’t think she will ever want to be a mother herself.

Elsa dabbled in musical theater in high school, and loved it, but never felt confident enough to audition for a main role. It’s something she regrets as an adult, and sometimes considers auditioning for local theater shows, always talking herself out of it at the last minute.

Being yh stan is very exhausting and unpredictable 😮‍💨

One day you'll get a cute tiny maltese with doe eyes...and then maybe the next day you'll get a giant cold vamp-looking guy that stares at you like he will devour you in 0.05 sec if you glanced at him a bit too long than his liking...

You never know how's your heart gonna be- melting like a good ol' cooked marshmallow on a slightly cold night by the campfire or BE THE CAMPFIRE---

But here i am, still staying by his side like a bitch on a leash despite years of heart sufferings ☺️. And it just gets worse as now I'm bbangsun biased...

Ah yes what a way to kill myself 🧍

- 🦥

please I'm one foot through the door of entering my younghoon era if you give me really good shit to read or brainrot shit I might already dive in kajndaskjndak j😩

Even Though I Knew the End

By C. L. Polk

C. L. Polk’s 2022 Even Though I Knew the End

is a stand-alone modern fantasy novel.

Helen Brandt, disgraced sorcerer, formerly of the Brotherhood of the Compass, now ekes out a precarious living as an investigative warlock. A client asks her to investigate a murder scene, latest of the so-called White City Vampire serial killings. The scene reeks of powerful magic. Helen takes photos and prepares to leave, when she is interrupted by former colleagues from the Brotherhood of the Compass, who warn her away.

Helen very much wants to please her client, Marlowe. The pay is lucrative and will add to the nest egg Helen plans to leave her girlfriend Edith. It will be a great help to Edith in her (planned) new life in San Francisco. But it will be a life without Helen. Helen knows she will die January 13, three days away. That’s something Edith doesn’t know.

Helen’s America is the America of 1941 (1), with all its virtues and prejudices intact. There’s one major difference: magic is real. Desperate people can bargain with infernal beings for favours, as Helen did: her brother’s life for her soul, to be collected ten years after the bargain was made (2).

Just because she will surely die once three days have passed does not mean that death cannot claim her before January 13. Death as wielded by the White City Vampire, who clearly commands some very dark magic. It might be a good idea to tell Marlowe that she cannot do the job and forfeit the pay. However, Marlowe is a demon who dangles an incentive Helen cannot turn down. Marlowe has acquired Helen’s spiritual IOU. Satisfy Marlowe, Helen’s soul won’t be collected, and she can enjoy as much bliss with Edith as they can arrange before the natural order of mortal life ends their time together.

Bad cases have a way of turning out be much worse than expected once private investigators get in too deep to back out.

~oOo~

This book won’t be out for a while. I probably shouldn’t be tantalizing my readers but … consider this a marshmallow test that I’ve failed. There’s no second marshmallow to be had, so why not enjoy myself by reading the book and writing a review while the book is fresh in my memory? (Yeah, I suppose I could write the review and then pigeonhole it until publication day. If I were sure I would remember to publish it …)

Ignore footnote 1, because this novel isn’t billed as hard fantasy. It’s a PI story like The Big Sleep or The Maltese Falcon. Or perhaps the time that PI H.P. Lovecraft was hired to find a book called the Necronomicon. Read as such, it has everything one might want in such a story:

a morally compromised but not that mortally compromised detective

a client who left out certain important, need-to-know details

a love-interest who, as it happens, has some secrets of her own

authority figures who range from unhelpful to actively hostile

Points one and three made me somewhat pessimistic about Helen and Edith’s long-term prospects, what with their habit of not telling the other about stuff they think might upset their sweetheart. On the plus side, this is the sort of story in which it would be a huge win for the pair if they reached a point where long-term prospects would be a consideration at all.

I like fantasy; I like stories about PIs whose careers show what happens when you make terrible life choices from the best of motives. This book is both. It’s well-written and moves fast. I liked it a lot; you may like it too.

Even Though I Knew the End is available for pre-order here (Amazon US), here (Amazon Canada), here (Amazon UK), here (Barnes & Noble), here (Book Depository), and here (Chapters-Indigo). Inexplicably, Chapters alone declines to show the book’s cover, which is of two women kissing.

__________________

1: A digression on world-building and one reviewer’s unfair expectations pertaining to same. This is a world where

mortals can (if they choose) poke a demon with a stick (not recommended);

magical rituals have a tangible, measurable effect that any scientist could easily verify.

Religion in this setting is not entirely a matter of faith (although enough faith is demanded of adherents to drive the plot). It’s as undeniable as a stubbed toe.

And yet … somehow the setting is 1941 America plus ancient magic. This is utterly implausible. The whole course of history would have been different! But a plausible history would be a lot of work to gin up, so the author just picks a historical period and adds magic! As de Bodard did with her Paris Despite Literal Angels Literally Falling Out of the Sky. And so many other books. Sigh.

2: “Well, so much for bargaining for eternal life,” I hear some of you say. Not so! People can bargain with demons for life eternal and get it. It’s just that most of it will involve being nipple-deep in bubbling tar while bored devils prod one with pitchforks.
