"Hi Everybody!" Jubilee enters the Nexus in an exhilarated mood. "You know, one of the best parts of the holiday season, in my opinion, is all the food that one gets to enjoy. I swear I gain so much my munching on gingerbread and shortbread and candy canes and nuts and oranges and stuffing and..."
"Well you get the idea. So, my question today is food related. What would you say is a food-favorite that is only available during a certain time of year?"
"And what meal would be the perfect 'last meal', if you could choose?" |

"I would like to apologize to anyone I mistreated at the Goblin King's ball. I assure you it was not intentional I just didn't seem to have any choice. I'm not sure what drove me to do it, but the point is, whether I could help it or not, I have to take responsibility for my actions. Have you ever been compelled to do something against your will? Did you regret it later?" |

The architecture of the Nexus is in a perpetual state of flux, with objects and parts of structures appearing, moving, and vanishing in a constant tectonic ballet. Certain to spread a few ripples in that fluid landscape is the sudden appearance of a broad expanse of marble floor, inlaid with jade and malachite, surrounding a bonfire better described as a towering inferno. Along one edge, a colonnade shelters a goblin orchestra which is presently warming up--at least, let's hope that's what the cacophony of squeaks and squawks implies. And of course, front and center stands the goblin king, in all his splendor.
"The year's dark hours are fast upon us, children--at least, those of us who count. But is this a time for cowering in cold and darkness, waiting for its clutches? No! Now is the hour to hold night at arm's length, and someone warm a little closer. Come forth! Don a mask, eat, drink, dance, and make the year itself forget that it is cold. Even I shall be generous this night."

Over at a bench, Faye can be found carefully cleaning her sword, and making sure it's still sharp enough for her tastes. It stands to reason that she should learn how to maintain her own weapons and be self sufficient in these matters.
She pauses long enough to ask, "So... those of us who have a weapon of choice, how skilled are you in using it?"

There's a stand set up in the Nexus, here in the shadow of the sign. It's presided over by a blond woman with happy blue eyes and a ready smile and a tall young man with slightly wayward brown hair and a red jacket. The woman is a hologram, the man however is very real, though not quite as human as he appears at the moment.
The table in front of them and the shelves and glass front stasis units at their backs hold an assortment of Christmas or Hanukkah treats, including gingerbread houses that actually look good enough to eat, lox, whole smoked turkeys and dinochickens, ginger and cinnamon cookies, peppernut cookies, stained glass cookies, handmade candycanes of all flavors and colors, Christmas pudding, soda bread, dinochicken ham with crispy rind intact, all sorts of nuts, fruitcakes that look and smell like food, tourtière, different sorts of pies, shortbread, Pan de pascua, fish and fish dishes, rice pudding, kouglof, springerle, latkes, sufganiyot, and chocolate money.
Among other things.
The woman smiles as they finish setting up, then looks around and calls out, "Would anyone like to buy something for Christmas or Hanukkah? We've got nearly everything, some with an exotic twist. Good prices, and guaranteed LOL free. We even..." She nods to the young man. "Have a taste tester on hand to prove it."

Seems that the Nexus continues to keep calling Jubilee to its question area, because here she is again. This time wearing a Santa hat and standing by a black pot filled with candy canes. (Don't worry, except for the side effect of getting a very red tongue - there is no LOLs on the candy canes).
She smiles, "During this time of year, I know a lot of people make gift requests and express their hopes for the future. I would be happy to learn any of yours, if you are willing to share. What are you hoping for during the holiday season?"
"And do you think you would be on Santa's naughty or nice list?" (if your answer is NSFW, please identify it as so) |

Supergirl floats down from the sky, settling into a couch with her cape around her. She looks VERY content and comfortable.
"I've found my cousin and spent a few days with him. It's been awhile since I've been able to feel close to someone. It's got me thinking I'd like to move to be closer to him but I'm not really sure what kind of job to apply for or what I'd even be good at. What's YOUR dream job?" |

There's a Nero in the Nexus, sprawling across a couch (as usual) and focusing quite intently on what appears to be some sort of handheld game console, looking far too entertained.
Not too entertained to ask a question, though. "What're some of your favorite things to do when you're bored?"
He'll even answer that one himself if anyone turns it back on him, but the answers probably won't be very worksafe. |

Today, one can find Jubilee in the Nexus very easily. You just follow the fireworks that have been exploding for the last couple of minutes. Underneath those explosions of light and sound, laying on the ground on a very comfy blanket is Jubilation. She seems very comfortable in the flannel pajamas she seems to be sporting today, uncaring if anyone in the Nexus has a problem with someone wearing pjs (and fuzzy slippers).
"So... when was the last time you had a really good cry? When was the last time you laughed so hard you had tears in your eyes?"
"What would you say is a good way to embrace your emotions?" She gives a little smirk as she explodes another piff into the sky. "Three guesses to how I express mine." |

A girl with cat ears wearing one of those t-shirts with the Milky Way galaxy on it and a pointer with caption "you are here," and another pointer with the caption on a lower arm of the galaxy that says "your luggage is over here" heads over to one of the convenient nexus chairs and plops down in it. "So, does anyone have any thoughts on why disaster movies and books are so popular?"
"And for a second question, what are your favorite disaster movies?"You are feeling:  amused |

{L-sama enters the Nexus for the first time in quite a while and is accompanied by... something covered by a large drop cloth that is floating behind her}
All right, it's been a while but I suppose this is as good a place as any to conduct my survey. It's simple and consists of two questions.
Question 1) Karaoke: The greatest form of entertainment ever or an infernal abomination whose creator should be confined to the lowest pits of eternal torment for creating such a monstrosity?
Question 2) {She pulls off the drop cloth to reveal what may indeed be the ultimate karaoke system. Huge display screens, a dance stage, laser light system and speakers slightly larger than your average transformer.... with dials that go to eleven} Who wants to have a go? If you can name the song we've got it {Gestures to a table covered in several impressively thick ringbinders}
We've got plenty of microphones as well so don't be shy if you want to do a group number. {Grabs a mic herself, jumps on stage and starts singing 'I and Myself' from the Slayers Gorgeous soundtrack}

Kara is back once again. She seems to spend a heck of a lot of time here, it's a wonder everyone hasn't gotten sick of her. She's carrying a bag full of books that she borrowed from the Nexus library. It seems she's hungry for knowledge.
"What's your favorite book? Fiction, non-fiction, anything. I'm curious what everyone else reads."
She looks around. "Also, if Sora's around I was curious if there was any progress on my costume? I'm anxious to meet my cousin." |
|
And he's waving, holding a box in other hand and wearing what seems to be a Girl Guide/Scout Uniform. Not surprisingly, it's Random that's in control. "Special pickle-flavored Decepiscout cookies! Only five creds a box! Who wants to buy one?"
He then looks around, thinks, and adds, "Oh, and if you can't eat Deceptiscout cookies, what's your favorite kind of cookie?"
Icy and Hothead are NOWHERE to be seen. |

A lot of tables have been set up over here, within sight of the Sign area. They're loaded down with baked items, mostly vegetable based, such as mini pumpkin pies, and cupcake-sized carrot cakes and spice cakes. There are elephant ears, funnel cakes, mini shepherd pies, and crepes and blini with various fillings. Though vegetables are in the majority, there are still some fruit items like cherry tarts, mini apple pies, caramel apples, and jelly rolls to keep things from getting boring.
There are bushels of fresh vegetables - anything one might find in a garden catalog, including 'novelties' like multicolored corn and peppers or blue potatoes.
Grills not far away might be your destination if you'd like a half-corncob on a stick (available in several colors), baked potato (including in blue), veggie kabobs, or a bronto burger with onion relish.
There's deep frying equipment as well, for those who'd like to try the multicolored corn dogs, french fries (again, some are blue), onion rings, or breaded and fried dill pickle slices.
One area's got heated soups, again primarily veggie based, ladled out and served in bowls that appear to be a very sturdy green waxed paper - if anyone asks, they're made of edible seaweed and beeswax and can be eaten or nicely composted once the soup's gone.
Drinks include lots of vegetable juices, smoothies, and some fruit juice, punch, and lemonade. For those who like their drinks a little harder it seems the Cossacks might be willing to share some of that vodka over there, and there's been a few attempts at grain-based new beer and hard cider.
There are also lots of home-canned canned goods, for those looking to take something home to store for a while or give as a gift. Sugar-cured, spice cured, smoked, salted, pickled, jellied, flash-frozen, dehydrated, powdered... if it can be done to a vegetable, it's probably here.
And of course there are waffle cones and ice cream.
((The mun meant to post this yesterday, but the time got away from me. This is pretty much just an Open Thread for anything you might want to do nexus-wise that you don't have a question in mind for, like meeting up with someone else's pup or whatever. Do what you'd like with it. ;)
And, to make it 'legal'... I've been cleaning out the back room here lately and trying to identify some old toys. This one doll has me stumped. Pic is here, sorry about the quality as my camera isn't working and I had to hold her on the scanner to get that. :/ Anyone recognize her? According to the stamp on the back, made by Tiger Electronics in 1994. Her eyes are a kind of lavender color, and she uses a 9-volt battery and four AA's. O.O All she seems to do for me is say random phrases, and I'm not sure if she's meant to do more.)) |

There appears to be a tripod in the Nexus today. On top of it, poised to take a picture, is a camera. It seems innocent enough, with the sign attached to the front stating "Free Pictures!" in many languages. Wouldn't a picture be a lovely souvenier of one's trip to the Nexus?
( LOL alert!!! )
It seems the first victem volunteer is a blue Bayformer Seeker. He approaches the camera, inspecting it for a few moments, before standing in a "Victory Pose". The camera goes off, and a photo emerges from the bottom. Thundercracker blinks a bit as it develops, showing a much shorter mech, whose alt-mode is clearly a land-based vehicle.
A few seconds and a flash of light later, Thundercracker is no longer standing there, but the shorter mech is! He blinks a bit, before wandering off to inspect something that's caught his attention. It's only when he reaches for something that he spots the PINpoint he's holding, and with a confused look, he's PINned back to his home reality. |

Kara enters the Nexus once again. She looks happy and confident. She had learned a lot over the last little while and had learned enough about her cousin from doing research that in turn she had learned about her own powers and she had been practicing. She asks the required question in the hopes of getting to know some of her fellow Nexusites better..
"Do you have any hobbies? What are they? Why do you enjoy them?" |

The being who stands in the Nexus today is massive, well over forty foot in height and adorned with heavy armor that curls into spikes in places. A mirrored visor covers the area where most beings have eyes, leaving only a grim mouth visible on his face.
He's been standing here for awhile, so still that some might have taken him for a statue. But now he moves slightly and speaks in a deep, surprisingly smooth voice.
"Say something is holding someone back. Removing it will damage and possibly kill them, but if they recover they'll be a lot stronger than they were with it. Would you remove it?"

It's starting to look like a running theme with J: Difficult tasks. Except he's making it look more difficult than it is this time. Just out of practice, that's all.
At least, that's what he tells himself when he stumbles off the hoverboard yet again. It might help if the 'bloody thing' stopped lifting off the ground the moment he put his second foot on.
But really, it's starting to look ridiculous.
"How do you cure homesickness? And if you're going to mention distractions it better be a pretty damn good one."
J hesitates, wobbling a bit, but finally not falling off. Rest assured, his grin is smug. "Alternatively, what's a skill you used to be really proud of that got shoved aside over time?" |

The goblin king is back in the Nexus, this time brooding on a palanquin surrounded by the little horde of goblins that apparently carried it here. By his expression, he has been prodding at some irritating thought, as though it were a loose tooth, and it is this which eventually prompts him to voice a question: "what, my plebeian masses, is 'fair?' I hear it used so often and so carelessly, yet I wonder whether anyone grasps the idea itself." |

"Next week we're hoping to have a Nexus Harvest Party here. There will be a lot of free, non-LOLed food... we need to get rid of an overabundance of vegetables. There will also be jams and jellies, corn-dogs, and other such things."

Kara enters the nexus once again, still wearing the helmet that Ali had gotten for her. Her feet don't touch the ground. It appears that she's practicing hovering in different directions as she had mastered walking when she was quite young. She carries with her a rolled up piece of paper.
"Does anyone know how to make clothes?" She unrolls the paper and it has a drawing of a costume, complete with red boots.
"I found out information about my cousin and he dresses like this only more masculine. I thought if I had a suit like his, maybe the news would take notice and then he'd be looking for me as well as me looking for him."
She holds up her red, blue and yellow blankets. "I have the materials."
Then she asks a question for everyone else. "What's your favorite outfit?"

After a brief absence from this area of the Nexus, a portal opens and a Jubilee enters. She is pushing a large box of canned goods. With a glance up to make sure she is not pushing the box over anybody (or any sentient thing), Jubilee pushes the box to a couch. She flips over a sign that reads, "The Great Nexus Food Drive: Need food? Take what you require. Have an abundance? Give what you can. No LOL'd items please".
Then she sits by her box, looking after it for a moment. Her question seems to be holiday oriented. "Every notice how you just get through celebrating one holiday, and then all the sudden the next seems to come flying at you. Man already I am seeing Christmas decorations and songs all around me, in my adopted dimension."
"For a general question, how do you make the most of a day, when something else seems to be pushed on you from all directions?"
(This part locked from ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) ready2believeu) "As well, I have been plotting." She glances around, dropping her voice. "I mean what could I possible buy for a sweet, adorable, understanding boyfriend who is really science smart. Especially when I am not? Ideas people! I need ideas!" |

It would be better if she found an expert swordfighter, right? After several minutes, she has something to ask.

Den looks a bit flustered as she settles into a Convenient Nexus Recliner.
"Okay. suppose you went to school, did a few dumb things, wound up not going back the next year, and spent the next few years trying to make up for the dumb things you did when you were in school. Now suppose you've gone through a program designed to help you make up for the dumb things, and you did well for awhile and graduated that program. Fast forward about ten months after you get done with the program, you're out of work due to economy crap, and you've decided enough is enough. You apply at a school. The same school, in fact, that you did the dumb stuff at. You know you'll do better and not make the same dumb choices you did the first time 'round, but other people aren't willing to give you the chance to prove that you've grown up. How do you break the news to them that you got accepted at the school?" |

Maya, swaddled in a large pink bathrobe and red plaid pajamas (and yes, she's aware she doesn't quite match) with her ever-present Pepsi in hand, is laying across a Nexus couch and trying very hard not to fall asleep. "Four more hours," she's muttering to herself. "Four more, then go get stabbed in the arm, come back and get some sleep. C'mon, Maya, you can do this."
Then she looks up.
"...Oh. Heh." Attempting to look more awake, she pulls herself up into a sitting position and drinks deeply from the soda can. "Okay, two questions for you people today. One: what're some things to do to keep yourself awake when you have to stay up, especially when you've already been up roughly eighteen hours and are just about ready to crash out? Oog." Clearly she's unhappy with the situation.
But it's soon gone to a somewhat-manic grin, and she laughingly asks the Nexus, "And two: am I spoony?"

Now she wore a white blouse, a red skirt and knee socks that she had gotten from a new friend. She still carries the red, blue and yellow blankets that she brought with her to earth. She looked tired and decides to ask her first question.
"How would you go about finding a long lost Kryptonian relative in a world that is so large? I've only spent a day on earth and it seems so very big that I don't think I will ever find Kal-El... if he even survived his journey many years ago how would I recognize him? We've never even met." |

In walks Randi once again, clad in the very same armor he bought from Tida the last time he was here, and not looking particularly happy. Recently, along with the girl Purim and the sprite Popoi, he has fought his way to Elinee's Castle to save Purim's fiancé, the soldier Dyluck, and get the once good witch Elinee to remove the seal blocking the way into the Earth Temple.
Of course, that didn't quite go to plan... Dyluck was teleported to the strange ruins south of Pandora, and Elinee's magic faded, leaving her unable to remove the seal. ...And now, something's wrong at the Water Temple on top of that.

If you consider that last time eviler!Telrim came to the Nexus she wound up being giftwrapped and posted back to her own ship, it's quite understandable. Nonetheless she's relaxed, sure that there won't be a repeat of that incident.
But she's not forgetting it in a hurry.
"Would you trust yourself?" she asks thoughtfully. It seems relevant.

Something like a man strides into the Nexus, amid a tumult of winds and the crack of thunder. The very air around him seems to scintillate, and his stern gaze is as much of a lash as the scepter he carries. He allows a moment for his presence to be felt before he speaks. His voice, like his face, is sharply cut from the stuff of dreams: "who has been placing doors where they have no right? Someone must answer for it." |

A blindfolded J is tossing coins into a cup on a table a little way from him. More accurately, he's attempting to toss coins into a cup blindfolded, but the growing pile of coins around the cup indicates he's not being very successful. But it's not like it can hurt, and there's got to be a trick to this thing. Practice makes perfect, right?
"Why..." Another metallic noise as another coin fell on the floor. "...don't you tell me three bad things about you? And... Now tell me three good things about you. Or try anyway."
He smirks and aims another coin. "Alternatively, what's something you've always wanted to tell someone? In general, or someone specific, doesn't matter. Look, I'm even all blindfolded for it."
A slight clink when the coin lands on the table and he frowns. "Wait, did that go in the cup?"

The area around the Sign is much the same as it always is, except for a single moment when the air seems to flicker and tremble and then it's not.
And then it is again.
But judging from the man on his knees before the Sign now, it seems the Nexus has felt the need to drag a new arrival into its midst.
( Large amounts of blood and a call for any Final Fantasy-type magic. Probably a bit disturbing, hence cut. )

A face that hasn't turned up in the Nexus for a while is here again. Agrias strides in with her hand resting casually on her sword, a wee little dragon twined about her shoulders and chittering at her every so often, to which she'll give it a rub behind the eyeridges and smile as it coos in delight.
Her question just so happens to be about the little dragonlet, as well. "Might there be any sort of being here who knows aught about caring for a dragon whelp? This little one seems to have become...rather attached to me--" Quite literally, from the way it's settled comfortably about her. "And I've honestly no idea what to do with it."
The dragonlet, uninterested in questioning, yaaaaawns a tiny curl of smoke and politely demands more petting. |

In one sense, Telrim doesn’t look much different than usual – her host is the same and she’s wearing a business suit as she sometimes turns up in. On the other hand, she doesn’t normally let herself look so… unhappy. Oh, she’s trying to keep a lid on it, but her expression is strained and there’s something about the way she’s pacing back and forth with her hands in her pockets that says Hello, I am conflicted today.
“What would you do,” she says slowly, “if you realised that something you’d been working for was wrong… that what was happening couldn’t be allowed to go on… but you didn’t want to betray the people around you either?”
Yes, of course it’s hypothetical, why do you even ask.You are feeling: guilty |

Faye is rather hard to miss tonight, especially since she's dressed like this. No, she hasn't taken up the mantle of Batgirl - It's her Halloween costume. Somewhat shyly, she makes herself known...
"So, um... how do I look? Now, who's dressing up on Halloween?" Yes, she's absolutely planning to get her girlfriend into a Robin costume.

Whatever passes for peace here in the Nexus is soon shattered by the sudden arrival of a running teenage boy - one with spiky hair, simple blue clothes with thin purple scarves as a head band and a belt. Said belt has a rusty sword attached to it, which by the looks of things was once a magnificent blade...
It soon becomes obvious to the confused teen that this... isn't exactly where he wants to be. "Now wait a minute...! Who moved Pandora?"You are feeling:  confused |

Tida's in the Nexus again, her wings concealed this time and her ever-present sword not in her hand for a change. Instead, it hangs at her side in an ornate scabbard, almost forgotten as she stands behind a small table she's appropriated.
On this table are many, many things. Pieces of jewelry and protective charms set with glittering gems, bottles and packets holding what could probably be assumed to be potions, tinctures and treatments, carefully handwoven and sewn articles of clothing and painstakingly crafted armor laid neatly out for all to see - most of them will probably look strange to even the Nexusites, but some of them may seem familiar, imbued as they are with the warm, soft magic that Tida embodies. There are also price cards set out in front of the various items, and a Convenient Nexus Money Changer is at the side of the table for those who don't have Tida's particular currency.
"...Would anyone like to buy any of this? I took a few days to improve my trade skills, and - I've ended up with far too much, as you can see," she blushes. "It's all perfectly safe, I promise. I'd just like to get it off my hands."
((The items aren't LOLed, but they are magical. The clothes, armor, and jewelry (where applicable) will perfectly fit whoever buys them, and can change to fit whoever they're being given to if they're a gift. The potions are all of the healing and boosting sort - think your typical RPG potions and buffs. And no, the protective charms won't ward off LOLs. ;)
You can get a better look at the types of things Tida's offering at the Perfect World Database. It's just a guideline, though - she'll probably have literally anything that anyone could want. Feel free to ask if your pups need a specific something.)) |
