Fourth Wall Catch-All

This is a catchall post for all of my characters in the 4th wall, for both days; please let me know who a tag is for in the subject!



Sheena has work to do, and spends most of her two days in the tea shop, making and serving tea and trying to handle crowd control. This all feels so familiar it makes her shiver, but she doesn't get a sinister sense from it all, wings or no wings. Of course, it's still a bad idea to take her by surprise, particularly from behind.


Nephry, once she figures out the influx of newcomers is strange and confusing at best, leaves off trying to do anything with them through the Welcome Center and spends her time in the cafe instead. The last time there was an abundance of new people like this, it was really a cultist invasion. She's not willing to be caught unawares again - whether it was her fault last time or not. When not at the cafe, she'll be at house 1.


Mia isn't due in for work but checks in on both clinics anyway, thinking that the population burst might end in some...conflicts. Other than that, she stays in house 16 out of the way when she can. It's crowded enough without one more person milling about looking uncertain.


Luke is no dummy. Once he sees a few people reunited with others from their homes, he goes everywhere he can, just...hoping. His favorite places in which to hope are the bakery, the library, and around the fountain until he gets to cold he's back in the bakery again. He looks around expectantly almost the entire time.


Raven has the smithy to use as a sanctuary, and she's never been more thankful that she can recall. It's no place for people to just gather; when they try, she's well within her rights to tell them to either shop or leave. That's how she likes it. On her lunch break and any other time she'll be in the restaurant, despite hating the crowd.


Rue almost wants to get enough people together that she could dance for them. Dance with Mytho for them, maybe. She has everything she needs here, and lacks most of the things she doesn't want, so apart from trying to keep Mytho from getting lost, she doesn't really care about all the new people milling around. She keeps an eye out for ravens, of course.

Much needed CR

Well.. No.. But tell me what to do and I'll do my best.
corrinesbell: (not alone)

[personal profile] corrinesbell 2014-01-26 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you can carry stuff to tables and wipe them off when people leave. How's that sound?
clumsyduck: (G | Idea!)

[personal profile] clumsyduck 2014-01-26 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Sure! Leave it to me!

Really? I don't think I'm ever gonna get used to how time works all weird in this place. [Anise draws back from the hug, grinning.] Are the years here still way too short?
corrinesbell: (eheheh...)

[personal profile] corrinesbell 2014-01-26 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Duck reminds her of a more outspoken Colette, which makes her cautious.]

You'll be careful not to spill anything?
clumsyduck: (G | Ack!)

[personal profile] clumsyduck 2014-01-26 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! I'll be carefu-- WOAH!

[It would help to look where she's going first, huh.]
corrinesbell: (you just said something stupid)

[personal profile] corrinesbell 2014-01-26 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh boy. Oh geez. Sheena tries not to look as unsure as she feels.]

Just don't hurt anybody.
corrinesbell: (carefree)

[personal profile] corrinesbell 2014-01-26 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
[A familiar face is busy waiting the tables. They're nearly full, thanks in part to the number of people who, without wings, remember the tea shop and want to come say hello. It makes Sheena happy, in a bittersweet way. She's so busy she doesn't notice the bell ringing on the shop door.]
clumsyduck: (G | Ehehe~)

[personal profile] clumsyduck 2014-01-26 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Ehehe~ I'll be okay! I'll be more careful.

[And with that, she takes an order to a table. Surprisingly without tripping this time.]

[Not expecting collision, Mia makes a very undignified "oof!" sound, turning automatically to catch hold of whoever it is. She wouldn't want them to fall if she can help it.

They're familiar shoulders. The hair brings it home.]


Caius. [Rather than pure excitement, her smile is sad.]
frost_jewel: (contemplation)

i am dead

[personal profile] frost_jewel 2014-01-26 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
[As Mia opens the door, she hears another close nearby. That's odd. The house is unusually quiet, too, for a place so often full of rowdy young people.

Pacing the room, Mia calls the names of a few of her housemates. Receiving no response, she sighs, planting herself on a chair. It's quite near Rief's secret cupboard.]
hisapprentice: (it's you!)

[personal profile] hisapprentice 2014-01-26 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh no.

Oh no.

That voice.]


Inspector! [Not that Luke's ever been able to deter him from his usual hysterics.] Inspector Grosky!
hisapprentice: (discovery)

[personal profile] hisapprentice 2014-01-26 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Not quite what he was looking for. No. Not quite.

It twists his heart inside his chest, all the same, the sound of that voice. Luke turns around with a wavering smile.]


Dad?
hisapprentice: (magnifier)

[personal profile] hisapprentice 2014-01-26 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
Waah-!

[His usual reaction to someone covering his eyes like that notwithstanding, he'd know that voice anywhere.]

Pascal?
youarebusted: (thinking)

[personal profile] youarebusted 2014-01-26 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
Eh? Who's there?

[That's a very familiar voice. But Grosky swivels a bit for a moment without noticing him... sometimes he doesn't notice people who are beneath his chest level.

But then, he thinks to peer down and sees the boy.]


It's you! You're caught up in this mess too, eh, boy?

[With a closer look, something's different about Luke. He looks taller - he looks older. It hadn't been that long since Clark last remembered seeing him....

His hustling ceases as he looks towards his son with concern.]


Yes, son? What's wrong?
moral_rief: (like mother)

my bad

[personal profile] moral_rief 2014-01-26 07:17 am (UTC)(link)
[He listens carefully to the voice calling out those names. The names may not be familiar, but the voice very much is. Rief just can't pin it down. It reminds him a lot of Mom... but the voice sounds closer to Nowell's age.

There's one thing he's certain of: this woman doesn't sound like a threat. And she sounds like family.

He cautiously cracks open the door.]


Hello...?
frost_jewel: (concentration)

no it's good

[personal profile] frost_jewel 2014-01-26 07:46 am (UTC)(link)
[The sound of another voice so close has her right out of that chair, standing to face the cupboard warily.]

Who's there? That had better not be you, Kurt.
moral_rief: (smug while tiny)

[personal profile] moral_rief 2014-01-26 03:38 pm (UTC)(link)
My apologies. [He clearly startled her and already feels bad about it.] You don't have to worry. I am no Kurt, and... I come in peace.

[And the finally opens the door completely, clambering on out. And he freezes upon seeing her.

There's no mistaking it. It's very distinctively not Nowell. Rather, it looks so much like his mother - but so young.]


What...?
catrimony: (chipper)

Ruuuueee

[personal profile] catrimony 2014-01-26 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[What about cats? Here comes one, who looks fairly pleased to see her. Rue is one of his most advanced students, after all. He would never even dare to propose to her.]

Miss Rue. So it's true that you're here as well.
frost_jewel: (of Imil)

[personal profile] frost_jewel 2014-01-26 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[For a moment, she sees in him another person, a years-ago boy who was never so short in her memory, or had glasses, but all the same-

Then it's gone, and instead this entirely different young man stands before her, looking surprised.]


I'm sorry. My friend Kurt likes to play tricks on me. Were you stuck in there?
brilliantdeception: (Say something)

Little Luke

[personal profile] brilliantdeception 2014-01-26 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well he was probably not who you wanted to see Little Luke, but there he was, hanging around the plaza and looking rather puzzled by his predicament. He doesn't have his hat, but he still wore that distinct outfit that he wore to disguise himself as Big Luke.

He was going to notice Little Luke first and was quietly watching him from a distance. He had those strange wings too that some of the people here had...what should he do? Little Luke may be a familiar face, but they didn't exactly leave on friendly terms.]


Huh...So you have those wings too. I suppose the color does suit you. [But it was still a familiar face and...well he really did feel guilty for the trouble he caused]

[ That voice is too low to hear over the din, as Gelda helps up the person who had run into her, and had also simultaneously knocked a chair over. ]

If you have a bruise, they may have ice you can put on it here.

[ As she glances back up to see if there are any servers, she catches sight of that student again. ]
moral_rief: (flustered)

[personal profile] moral_rief 2014-01-26 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[He stares for just a moment before he snaps out of it, nervously adjusting his glasses.]

No, I wasn't. Truthfully, I don't know where I am right now, so I was trying to hide from whoever lives here. [It's so unreal. Sure, he was intending to return home soon, but to a mother who was quite a bit older! And she doesn't seem to recognize him.]

I know that it's dishonest behavior on my part. If it's a problem, I can leave.

[personal profile] frost_jewel 2014-01-26 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, you needn't worry about that. Most of us here don't bite.

[Something about him is really unsettling her. Mia brushes dust from the cupboard off of his shoulder, taking note of his clothes, their trappings of the scholar from a cold climate.]

At least you're dressed for the weather. I certainly won't throw you out, but you can go somewhere else in the village if you want to. Its name is Luceti.
