That one crack RP with too many underscores. TOH!

[Somewhere in a convenient location with a vast space and a lone tree is one redhead doing violent things to a makeshift punching bag, which is tied around a sturdy branch. What kind of things? A jab with her left fist, a swing kick, a jab with her right fist, a roundhouse kick, a couple of alternating punches, some dodging and other self-defense moves.

And once she's done, she backs away and lets the bag sway from side to side.]

Hah... hah... There, that should do it! About time I get my body's strength up and going!

[... Oops, she's definitely not alone.]

Since when did I have spectators?

[Somewhere just a few feet away from the inn is one redhead lying down on a makeshift hammock, looking up at the sky. Right beside her are some balloons and decorations by the tree. Care to bother the belated birthday girl?]

Birthdays are supposed to be a joyful celebration, aren't they? It's the day when you were first born after all. Really, it's only natural to get excited if holidays are a big thing for you. And yet I don't feel like I've aged one bit. Funny how that works.

By the way, even though it's a day late I do appreciate all the party stuff.

[In this inn is one red-headed teenager standing inside, putting up the final touches to a certain innkeeper's party. There is plenty of food to be had, along with other things.]

There. All finished! Now the only thing that's missing is the guests. He'd better be happy that I'm willing to do this again even though it won't be as big of a surprise as the last one, or one at all really.

Hey, I better not see anyone eating the cake right now. Save that for later!

Anyway... happy birthday, Lelouch. Enjoy yourself as best as you can, alright?

(OOC: LULU PARTY @ THE INN, AAAW YEAH. Threadhopping is 100% encouraged. Say happy birthday to the CLAMP noodle as he tags you, too. :B)

Wow, what's with all the decorations here? I know Halloween is coming up real soon, but-- wait no, better not overthink things. At least with this, I can make the lobby festive for the occasion. But I have to say, it's pretty ironic seeing the ghost-shaped ones considering that one event from weeks ago.

-- Oh, ha ha ha. Very funny. Putting devil horns on my figurine, that's nice!

Anyway, I made some cookies and they came out pretty well for my first batch. Oh who am I kidding? I could do better than that! But just to be on the safe side, I need taste testers.

Of course there's a catch and I'm only giving you two options: trick or treat?

(OOC: In this inn is one Kallen with tiny figurines of the islanders in costume and Halloween decorations, but that's not the main thing. Say "trick" and she may ask you to do something for her in order to get the cookies; but if your character is a wuss and say "treat" she'll just give one to you :<)

I didn't want to resort to this, but there is no other choice. I must express what I've been feeling all this time, not only as a simple girl that you all know and been fairly acquainted with, but as woman with complications. A woman with inner desires. A woman who will do whatever it takes to get what I truly want, even if I must walk down the path of sin and treachery.

... I'm dying of a wounded heart.

To think that all this time, I've been hiding my love for a world-class criminal without a face! To think that I've waited for him forever and a day, only for my loyalty to come into question, and to be led astray by blue-haired men! No, no, no! I must never let the pain inside me choke me to death!

I may be dying, but I'm a strong woman, dammit. I will overcome this. And as my friends, you will help me succeed!

Even if it means bringing the man I love back through sacrificing monkeys and dingoes. And even some green-haired women! So help me, I don't want to resort through some terrible tactics, but if I must do whatever it takes... then so be it.

Two years of island, two years full of memories. Time sure flies fast, doesn't it? So far I have to say, the new year isn't too bad aside from the general creep factor this place emits. Plus, I've been spending more time with certain people.

Speaking of people, or men I should say-- ...

... Z-ZERO?!

W-why is he... wait, I can't look at this! And yet, I can't turn away... Oh my god, my eyes are on him and only on him!

(OOC: In celebration of Kallen's second anniversary on Island, she receives one giant fanservice-y poster of Zero. Because I'm a terrible person she's a faggot. >:)

Before I start with festivities, I would like to thank everyone who helped me make this event possible. All it took was a lot of hard work and planning, and it worked out in the end. Too bad for the snow or else it would've taken place outside. So much for that, huh?

With all of that being said, let's get this party started, shall we? Now who are we missing...? Oh yeah, now I remember!

Happy birthday, Lelouch. I hope you enjoy being a year older.

(ITP: Lelouch's surpraiz party at the inn, courtesy of Kallen! There's plenty of food and all that other good stuff for everyone. And since this is a party, THREADHOPPING IS ABSOLUTELY ENCOURAGED! Go mingle and say hello to the birthday noodle. \o/)

I'm aware that Halloween is coming up real soon and all, but is all of this really necessary? First the early trick-or-treating with all the candy minus the "trick" part, and now... this.

If I have to be festive for the occasion, at least give more freedom for my legs. I look ridiculously silly in this! So, uh... a little help here, if you please! The last thing I'd want is to fall on my face!

(OOC: Why yes, she's indeed wearing the grave/door costume in the link. Feel free to mock or help out accordingly. EDIT: Time for me to sleep; I'll tag back tomorrow! BACK \o\)

Have you ever felt this impending sense of deja-vu? When you've done something a long time ago but for some strange reason, it'll happen again... or when you've seen someone in a similar situation as you were. One way or another, what happens to them will eventually happen to you.

It's as if karma is taking its grasp on me right about now.

There's a sign on my back, right? I can't take it off. And I'm not sure if I want to know exactly what it says...

(OOC: Kallen's sign says either "Tickle me!" or "Hug me!". Yes it switches and it'll be awkward. *A* EDIT: Oops forgot to mention that you'll be compelled to do either of those.
EDIT 2.0: Time for me to sleep; I'll tag back tomorrow! Back!)

So many things were happening at the island and it's getting harder to keep track of time. How long has it been exactly? Last time I checked, it was a year and six months. No matter, I need to keep myself occupied. Maybe I could do some errands at the inn or even get a position. I have lived there for a long time; might as well give something back.

In the meantime, I'll simply take a small rest at this tree and-- wait... Is that what I think it is?! I haven't seen it since... forever! Either way, that is the last place I'd ever want to see his face again!

Seriously, he's vanilla-flavored now?!

(OOC: Sup y'all, Syao's officially back in RP-mode! And here is Kallen rediscovering the elusive Lelube tree. EDIT: I'll be going to sleep now; will catch up on tags tomorrow! Back!)
