The usual: tell me how I'm doing with Willow, good, bad, etc. Constructive criticism, please. Flames just ruin the fun.

[ Willow's actually outside today. She's got the journal open to record, but she doesn't get that far. Halfway on her trek through the woods, the droids overtake her. The sounds of a familiar scuffle come through the journals. ]

Hey! Hands! [ Don't think droids care about hand placement. ]

N-no! I've already paid my time! You can't-

[ Oh but they can, Willow, and they just have. She gives them a good run with her magical power before they can knock her out. It'll be a while before this redhead's returned. ]

[ First thing after she wakes up from her nap is to actually pull her hair up and go make something to eat. By this point, Willow has not figured out that she looks like someone else (mostly because her hair is out of her face so she can't see what color it is). Residents of House 7 (and anyone else who might be inside), there is now an unknown (nor maybe all-too-well-known) girl in your kitchen, cooking as well as your normal redhead does. WHAT DO YOU DO?

A few hours later, once Willow has figured out that she is SOMEONE ELSE, she will return to her room and open up her journal. ]

Um... i-is anyone else finding that they're... someone else today? Or am I the only one who got that privilege?

[ Buffy cast? That is most definitely NOT Willow's voice. That is most definitely Tara's. Freak out as needed. Replies will be coming from

enchantedmysoul . Ignore the name, though. /lazy ]

[ Something probably smells good in House 7 right now. Willow's been cooking for a while and now she's got a basket of cookies, brownies, and some healthy stuff. Yes, Bones, it's all hers. There was no stealing anything from anyone else's supplies. She's just enjoying being in the kitchen. It gives her something to do. She's been playing on her laptop since the Malnosso gave it to her, but it's kinda useless for anything aside from basic things. She half-wonders if she's actually going to be able to use it to hack into anything and figures probably not unless someone has a flash drive lying around.

Even so, it's a... nice way to keep records.

So, for everyone in House 7, yes everyone, she's handing out baked yummy things. And for her friends elsewhere (or for people who just run into her), she's still handing out baked goodies.

...What, she felt like being nice. Giles' disappearance and Christmas and all that have made her realize she needs to keep up with the friends she has here, no matter who they are.

after a while, she sits down at the fountain and opens up her journal. ]

Hey, I was thinking... if you know people are gonna go poof on you at some point, o-or that they might because that's what it seems like this place likes to do to us, what would you do? Would you try to spend more time with them or-

[ "Or would it be worth it" but she doesn't add that in. Right now, she's thinking of Tara and her heart's a little heavy. Anyone's welcome to run into her anywhere, though, and housemates can interrupt her food preparations or wait til she goes a knocking on their doors. ]

Uhh... What's going on out here? I-I thought people were supposed to have wings.

This is so weird...

Buffy? Do you know what's going on? I swear I didn't do it!

[ She's just going to be... hanging out around House 7 watching. Because seriously? wtf ]

[ Well, after nearly a month in the care of the lab coats that definitely remind Willow of the Initiative (not that she remembers anything after the whole knocked out kidnapping phase), guess who's back in the center of town? Yep. You guessed it. Journal-less Willow.

...And she seems to be wearing something that may or may not be familiar. If she was seen on Halloween, it definitely looks familiar. Unfortunately for Luceti, she's been AU'ed... and not in a very pleasant way.

Meet the vampire version of Willow. She's pretty, and doesn't mind showing it off. She probably won't mess with anyone too much, but feel free to stick a cross to her face to get her to back off. If she gets bored, she'll wander off. Not too much on the crazy side. Luckily for Luceti.

Currently, she is wandering around the center of the village, trying to get her bearings again. Later, she might be found somewhere else... like the forest or near her house... ]

Huh... I-I guess it's not too bad.

Uh, Giles, Buffy? That thing I was working on? It's going-

AH!

[She's out in the woods when they come for her, cutting her words off.]

What are you, you creepy - Leave me alone! No, hey!

[There's the distinct sound of a struggle, possibly magic being used in the background, the thump of the book getting thrown (at one of the droids, actually) and then landing on the ground open, and then... nothing.

Should anyone venture out to where she was, they'll find scuff marks and a large area of leaves and general forest-y stuff that looks like it was blasted by some strong wind. The journal's totally still there, but Willow is nowhere to be seen.]

Halloween's coming up soon, right? ...Why do I get the feeling something really bad's gonna happen soon?

U-uh, so... how are everyone's costumes? Did anyone else get one chosen for them? Instead of, y'know, choosing your own? Or a-am I the only one lucky enough to not be able to keep one on... Uh! I-I mean, not keep the original one... uh, there's no good way to say that, is there?

...I think I'll stop now... Maybe it's time for more leaf-cleaning efforts.

[ She's wandering around town today, looking at the various costumes and trying to find a way to get out of hers. It's not really the worst, but... well, it brings back some memories. So, if anyone's out and about, feel free to comment on her rather leathery look. When not in town, she's hanging around the house, probably testing out her new leaf blowing wind magic. She can be encountered pretty much anywhere. ]

((ooc: still on hiatus ~~hoping to end it soon~~, so tags will be very slow in coming, but I had to get this up. For realistic efforts, she'll "gain" qualities of a normal Buffy vamp. Oh, hey are those real fangs, and oh, hey, did her face just change? Go nuts :D ))

Current Mood: confused

[locked to Giles, and Buffy]

[ She fiddles with her journal pages for a moment.]

I've been working with the Filial magic for a few weeks, ever since the teleportation event when I was stuck up on the roof. [ Which Giles would know but Buffy might not. ] A-and I think it's going pretty well.

[ More fiddling. ] But, uh, Dr. McCoy and I were talking about ways to keep intruders out last week a-and I mentioned early-warning spells and he seemed to think I could make one work. [ She pauses yet again. Can you guys tell how nervous she is? ] I think I'd, y'know, like to try it. Do you guys think the spell stuff would be easy to find? And, uh... if we can find it a-and I get around to trying it... could you.. do you think you guys could stay with me while I do it? Just to be sure I don't go overboard again?

[/locked]

[ Willow can be found in the forest by the northern lake, waaaay up at the north end, too. She's sitting cross-legged on the ground, levitating a stick on the ground. Anyone's welcome to interrupt, but she's very focused on what she's doing and if you really startle her, there's a good chance that stick is going to end up exploding or flying out of control. ]

[ Apparently, something weird has been going on for the last day or so. Willow hadn't really noticed it at first, but then she'd started hearing and seeing strange things. People popping up and disappearing out of nowhere. So, she'd done the only sensible thing: she'd gone looking for Giles. Unfortunately, he was as clueless as she was as to what was causing all this.

So, the two of them headed for the library, which is where they can be found currently. At least for now. Occupying both ends of a table, they're both poring over a pile of books, lost in thoughts.

It's just so unfortunate that as Willow moves to grab another book, her arm brushes Giles' hand - which would be awkward under normal circumstances anyway. This simple touch seems to set off the Teleportation and quite suddenly-

-they aren't where they last were. One of the Community Housing buildings gets a rather loud THUD as the two of them land square on the roof. Willow's first reaction isn't particularly soft, either. ]

I didn't do it, I swear!

[ Giles grumbles a bit as he glances around. Wow, aren't they up high? ]

I should hope not. No, I think we've just been called to join in the fun.

[ He goes to the edge of the roof and looks down, swallowing as he sees just how high they are. ] Oh, dear...

((OOC: The first thread is just Willow and Giles. The threads under it will be timed after their talk alone. And every thread will get tagged by both of us. Character -> Willow -> Giles

Questions, concerns, whatever, feel free to ask!))

Current Mood: uncomfortable

[ For most of the day, Willow's killing time before the big meeting. For the beginning and middle parts of the day, Willow is cooking. Yes, House 7 smells of food today. Early in the morning, she gets up to cook breakfast, pancakes - and she's totally taking orders from anyone who's actually up with her - and omelets if you guys are lucky. Any shape, any flavor. She might be looking pensive while she cooks, too. She misses Tara.

Later in the day, she's making a homemade soup. Little on the spicy side, but not terribly so. And she's still doing it all by hand. No magic at all. Not even to get the water hot. Feel free to run into her at either time or both. She's examining her journal while the soup's cooking, sitting at the kitchen table, so totally open to being disturbed.

Between cooking times, she'll make a pit stop in the library just to look around. Needs to kill time between cooking and the meeting. She's nervous about what Giles might have to tell her regarding the magic and her addiction at home. Everything's different here and she's very preoccupied. Chances are she might run into someone or walk right by them without noticing. ]

((ooc: party style for the morning if you guys want to? House 7 breakfast party. Otherwise, I'll just assume people came and went while she was cooking and eating.))

[It's early morning when Willow finally wakes up, blinking the sleep from her eyes. It takes her a few minutes to realize she's not in bed at Buffy's house, like she was last night when she fell asleep. Had she actually fallen asleep or had she dozed off for a little? The pile of clothes next to her says she merely dozed off before bed, but she can't imagine why she'd be wearing such a... weird hospital-type gown if she'd merely "dozed off." Then again, she has no idea why she wouldn't be in bed, either.

She sits up and looks around. The fountain is at her back - and it's a pretty one, too - but she's more than certain she's never seen it before in her life. What on earth is going on around here?

Something flips nervously in her stomach. Did someone use magic and transport her inter-dimensionally somehow? Or did she do it? Fantastic. Maybe it's just a dream. She's hoping so about now.

Sighing, she sits there for a few minutes to gather her thoughts before getting up to look around for a place to get changed. This gown is doing nothing at all for her. It's about then that she notices the open journal by her feet. She picks it up and looks at it, not noticing - yet - that it's on and recording.]

Hello? What is this thing...?
