WHACK
THUD

Good morning Cooper farm, it's your wake up call of hammering and nailing. Xander was back around, and just being all beelike with his busyness. Well, the recent side trip of creepytown was weird, only in that it was the familiar kind of weird. But he met a really cute girl there who was from his world even, and now it was back to farm sweet farm again.

(ooc: because it's been a while. They've been around, really! Thread's staying open till it goes off the first page, and borrowing dogbarked85's format. :D )

Cooper Farm:
Xander was whistling while he placed a notice up on the board for carpentry orders. Now there were bathrooms and showers, he could focus on other things needed to be fixed around the place.

Scully was somewhere around the hospital. She hasn't been avoiding anybody but her rounds have mostly been focusing her in the lower levels, like the morgue. And being in the basement area was familiar to her.

Maria Venkman was wandering out toward a field, trying to find something to do around the place. So far, she's been speaking to the ghost population more than the living one of late.

Lauren Olamina was out in one of the fields, checking on the status of the crops she had sowed. She was also thinking that maybe a school or tutoring should be started around the place, especially after seeing the notice for reading lessons by someone else. It was a good idea to have training and lessons for those who needed it. She was also writing new passages in her journal on Earthseed.

Either the Farm, Smallville, or Metropolis: Kate has been patrolling quietly, or as quietly as you can on a motorbike. She had been going back and forth, and also spending time with Will.

In Metropolis, John Constantine had found a modest flat to hole up in, he had some smokes, and there was a pub where you could get a reasonable pint for America (still shitty, but had to make do until he could suss out what's happened back in London).

Somewhere around the globe, Nathan was going on supply runs, and was continuing to keep an eye out for new arrivals needing help.

And where was Willow? Oh the dark eyed and haired witch has been quietly plotting and amassing power somewhere.

Sometimes there are hard days, when he wakes trembling from nightmares and even Kate's warmth doesn't help.

Then he walks with a bow in his hand, searching for any tree he can find and trying to find the Green his heart is missing.

Took a lot of work, and people's help, but the days of a single shower and toilet on the Cooper farm were over. There were now stalls set up to house a handful at a time. They were crude, comparable to the facilities on a campground site, but serviceable, and fairly clean.

Which meant Xander could finally start on some of the back order requests to build.

Howling Wolf howls when she first awakes. She howls before she falls asleep. "It must be done," is how she explains this compulsion to Writhen. Other than that, she is a quiet travel companion when she's not giving orders.

Miles away from the Cooper farm she suddenly stops, sniffing the air for a good minute. "There are many humans up ahead," she informs Writhen. "Humans...and others." In a rare verbal acknowledgment his needs, she adds, "There is water there."

And with that, she trots onward.

A black wolf and an amphibious green demon approach the Cooper farm. As always, Howling Wolf will glance backward every so often to keep track of Writhen.

Kate wanted to get a car so she could get back and forth to Metropolis and the farm easier. But in the meantime, she was doing discreet patrols around the farm. Just casually walking around, and keeping her keen senses alert.

------

Xander was still working on getting the plumbing and bathrooms set up for people around the farm. Party was nice, but now it's back to work.

------

Somewhere on the North American continent, in between supply runs for the farm, Nathan was keeping an eye out as he flew overhead. Looking for stranded arrivals, places willing to trade, or anything else of note.

------

Maria was walking along heading toward Smallville. She heard something about Metropolis, and she missed living in New York.

------

Scully was doing better with her first trimester, much of the morning sickness had passed, and there was now a hospital near the grounds. So she had headed inside to check the medicines, and facilities. The morgue especially looked in good shape.

There's a happy Xander around, who was driving a rig onto the farm. Took a long time to load it up with supplies from the fix-it store, but it was worth it. The appearance of even *more* supplies of cement, brick, and so on was another pleasant surprise to the happy carpenter. He wanted to shake the hands of the guy responsible. Likely even more since he was really grateful. Luckily the fix-it place had a cement mixer among many other tools. Even a portable generator so he could do a little with some power tools too. He jumped out of the rig, and started to unload a few items.

He then added a note of thanks to the board, and reminder to people interested in helping with construction to please report in. First priority was gonna be getting more bathrooms and showers around here for the growing community, and proceed from there.

Xander was still recovering from the other day with that guy who knocked him around. Didn't like that 'daughter' line he was using with Willow. But there was a lot work to around the farm. Like seeing about making sure there's plenty of bathrooms for all the new arrivals moving in here, and people already here. So he was looking over plans again, and looking for help.

The Cooper farm was under observation.

Since leaving Alexandria and Sunnydale the Princeling had managed to find his way to what some in passing had deemed the hub of civilization. That made Brand smirk. Hub his arse- it was a weak attempt at organization in a shattered world. With his hands tucked within the pockets of the long gray jacket he wore the Amberite watched silently.

He was studying it, learning the layout from what he could see for future use. A very wicked little smile crossed over his face as he started to hum a twisted version of The Ballad of the Water Crossers to himself. Sure Corwin had written it, but his younger brother knew just how to twist it around a bit.

Maybe he would take a walk through and play the stranded newcomer. But for the moment he was content studying. Totally botherable and noticeable.

There was hammering and nailing going on around the farm again. Remains of a HoHo's near Xander's post after he and Will had gone on munchie run in Smallville the other day. He was currently working on the little house for Pikachu, and there was a new development. His one eyed pirate days were over since the patch was gone, and there were two peepers looking around now. The new one was a little lighter in color than his normal, and definitely looked glassy. But he could still see with both again.

He's also taking furniture requests.

(OOS: Mort gets a shiny new follower, and Xander gets a shiny new eye. Also some bad news on the horizon. Could be the start of a Jossian friendship.)
[identity profile] thexanwhosees.livejournal.com
Yes, he knew about the dirt floors in the bunker, and the lack of furniture. But tool guy was trying to do something about that so people could be more comfortable around here. He was currently working on another small chest of drawers at the farm. A good distance from the pool since squid thing in there kind of reminded him of Hellmouth beastie, and he can do without those kind of memories right now, thanks. So there was some hammering and nailing going on in the yard right now from the one eyed carpenter.

Will is out hunting beyond the farm, he likes the bow he found in Smallville and though he misses Sherwood a lot, with Kate, helping Mel, he feels much better. You may not hear him but he's out there.

In another world, several beings have gathered. In one corner, his face buried in a  bottle, is what to all appearences seems to be a bum, a hobo, a street person. He's dressed in ragged clothes, in multiple layers, and doesn't seem to have washed in years. Hid name is Bob, and he is God of Travel. Towards the center of the room three other gods argue. A rather dapper looking young man, maybe all of twenty one, seems to be doing most of the talking. They call him Mikell, God of Luck. His sister Clarice has been dressed, against her will, in some form of white flowing garment, that does more to emphasize her generous curves then to hide them. Upon her has been bestowed the title, God of Good. And finally, we have a man who has become half machine, the creator of the God Wave and God of Technology, Victor.

As the argument escalates, a  dry voice interupts from a nearby window. "As fascinating as this conversation is, it has little bearing on the issues at hand. Whether or not you believe in free will, we must decide whether we are actually creating a"  the face in the window, rarely emotional, manages to make the word sound distasteful "Pantheon, or not. As beings of power, it will, eventually, fall upon our shoulders to make this world a better place, and save the remnants of humanity from themselves."

Mikell rolls his eyes, following it up with a glare for the dull little man in the reflection. "Well, if it isn't an opinion from the god of all things bright and shiny! Why the hell didn't you tell us about the minotaur? That thing damn near ripped my head off!"

Mort doesn't smile. He might smirk, from time to time, but smiling is right out. However something in his voice does convey amusement. "I knew you would be able to handle it. If I simply tell you everything, where is the fun? Seriously Mikell, you must-" Mort, tapping into his powers at random, sees nothing in his future but a giant blackness. He finds himself, for once, at a loss for words. Then he is gone.

"Mort?" Mikell peers into the reflection. "This isn't funny man, come back here!"




Worlds away, in the same building, in the same window, Mort finds himself staring out on a  new world. In his mind, he can see the branching paths of the future, and quite a bit that seems to be hidden from him.
This is different. This is new.

All across the world, reflections alter, a timid looking older gentleman staring forth boldly from them. Mort is everywhere there is a reflection, and he's looking for someone to talk to.

Somewhere in the Mountains of what used to be Translyvania

A dark man stands in the courtyard of an ancient castle, dressed in clothes that are so out of style, they might actually be in fashion again. Behind him is a cage, holding another man, one Xander Harris, his face pressed against the bars, his muscles straining in an attempt to escape. And across from Dracula, is a witch in white, her long hair floating almost like a halo around her head.

"I want him back. Now." Wisps of energy play around Willows hands, magic readying itself.

"He is mine, to do with as I please. His mind belongs to me!" The Dark Master (bater) strikes a pose, his eyes flashing in anger.

"Uh, yeah, sorry, not anymore? Uhm, I only call one person Master now, and really, I just call her Mistress, and that's only on Tuesday nights, when she gets the mask and the leather and- I'm oversharing again, right?" At the resultant glares, Xander steps back from the bars, hands up. "Right, I'm just going to stand here and let you two duke it out, right? Right."

Dracula and Willow stand there for a long moment, glaring at each other, each bringing up what magics they have to offer. There is a horrible noise, a flash of light, and in an instant, one of them is reduced to nothing. But the other one, well, she's not here anymore.

"Uhm, Willow? Sweetie? I'm still locked in this cage...."

Shatterverse

 In a blinding flash of light, and a cachophany of magic, white witch Willow Harris is on the scene. Somewhere, different. England, maybe? No castle.

She turns in place, gazing around her. Dracula was destroyed, she knows it. But, this, now, this isn't where she should be. She should be with Xander. Closing her eyes, she concentrates. Shouldn't be too hard to find her husband, not with the connection they have. Ah! There we go, back in America. In... Kansas?

Willow pulls her power to her, and sends herself across space, a quick teleport to the closest location to her sweet husband. Hmm. Some kind of farm. "Xander?"


Or, anyone else.

Xander was currently not a happy guy. This was now two end of the world places he's been to, and BOTH have to have the messed up version of his oldest friend. First the vampire version, and now scary veiny black magic Willow was here. This was not good. He was already trying to find some yellow crayons, and hoping she didn't find some old temple to destroy the world with.

In the meantime, he was on the farm, and scavenging pieces of wood for more chests to build.

Somewhere over the skies of Metropolis, somebody was flying overhead, and observing everything. Nathan Petrelli's had some weird encounters of late, but that wasn't going to stop him from continuing to do surveillance. And just take advantage of the relatively quiet skies.
--------------------

Kate Bishop was practicing her archery shots on the Cooper farm, but she was standing further back from the targets than usual. And yet still reaching the target with precision.

-------------------

Maria Venkman was on the Cooper farm as well now, casually walking around. She's pretty sure there's more around than what it seems like at first. A lot more. Just had to look for it.

-------------------

Xander Harris was humming something rather poppy as he was currently sawing some pieces of wood also on the farm, and nailing them together. Looked like a storage chest. He will deny any similarities the song has to samples from the latter boy band oeuvre.

-------------------

Alfred Bester was walking aways from the farm, his head tilted to the side casually. Getting in some exercise, and fresh air he would say. Listening to the background noise of thoughts of the few dwelling around. Amazing what you can learn when people think all their minds are that private.

(ooc: If you see the EP, it's open and taggable. Just indicate who you want to talk to in your tag, thxs!)

Relax ladies, he's a man, and he's got the tool. Er...tools that is. Or he would if he could find some handy to get working on fixing up the supports of the farmhouse and surrounding buildings. Also make sure the earthen rooms were well secured against a cave-in. So Xander was currently on the hunt for a toolbox, toolkit, toolbelt...something. Where's a home improvement store when you need one?

(ooc: Like Kate's post, this post is open to tags to whenever.)

Da-doo!

Perhaps your pups are in the Cooper homestead.

Shoop da-doo!

Or maybe sleeping (if they're lucky, in a bed).

Zedd da-doo!

Or even walking in a world that's mostly dead.

Apoc-a-loo!

When suddenly, and without warning, there is this:

To-tal e-clipse of the sun!

Or a bang and a flash. Whichever seems more likely. It's also a possibility that they just stumble across it somewhere. But what is 'it', you ask? Why, a plant, of course. Or, more specifically, a cutting of a plant, lovingly replanted in a neat little plastic pot. A very small, very unusual shoot.

What a strange and interesting little thing. Don't you just want to go closer and investigate?

Will is confused, Tom was just being a rat, that must be the explanation.

Nonetheless, he did not sleep well at all last night and is currently outside going through sword forms with admirable dedication.

He's been there since the sun came up with the hope that if he moves enough than he won't be able to think.
