October Catch-all [Multiple prompts]
AROUND THE WORLD (Open)
[Even though he's got so much on his plate, Soma does still manage to get out and about a little. You might catch a glimpse of him in any of the cities - perhaps less so Attleton, but the others he's certainly going to be around. This will of course be after the dolls go away, unless you want to encounter him in Everglade. But there's already a prompt for that, so... \o/]
BIRTHDAY BARBEQUE BASH (Vampire family, Open)
[It's been almost two months since his actual birthday went by, and Soma's only just now managed to get enough breathing room to finish setting this up. He's sent out invitations and apologies, citing the facts that he had both a shop and a castle dropped in his lap entirely without so much as a by-your-leave, plus the recent unpleasantness with the dolls. Still! It's October, and the nights are getting longer. It's the perfect time for a late-evening-into-night barbeque with family and friends. Sakuya is working the grill, having kicked Soma off of it after pronouncing his efforts entirely unsatsifactory. There's tables, chairs, coolers full of drinks, and a buffet set up - and for some reason, a low section of wall that has several roast chickens sitting on top of it. Maybe there's some kind of joke here? Also, what's with the candles floating in the air? They certainly give the place atmosphere, but how are they just floating there?]
BITING BOOKS (Mavis, Zeref, Fairy Tail)
[It's been a few days since Soma and Mavis spoke, but he certainly hasn't forgotten his promise to bring one of the castle's monstrous books over. Having been shown the way before, he manages to find the guild hall this time all on his own, without needing Mavis or someone else to come out and guide him over. Slung over his shoulder - he was not putting that thing in his pocket - was one of the aforementioned books, bound as suggested with a sturdy leather belt. He knocks at the door, ever polite even in the extremely odd circumstances.] Hello? Anyone home?
BOUNTEOUS BIRDS (Myrrh)
[It's been some time since Soma last claimed a bounty from the board. He's been quite busy, between one thing and another, but his recent demonstration for Dante has gotten him back into the mindset. Plus, the paper boy kind of bonked him on the head with this month's edition. Who can refuse such a direct invitation?]
[The forest of Fayren is lovely, dark and deep, or at least it is when the birds aren't trying to peck you to death. It doesn't take long for the flock to find him - he's not exactly trying to be stealthy, after all. He's standing in the middle of a great big grassy clearing, arms folded, looking for all the world like a man trying to figure out where he left his tent. Which he might well be doing - he came out here expecting to have to spend multiple days searching, after all. So when he hears the rustling, he's genuinely surprised when he turns to see who - or what - is there.]
CASTLE CRASHING (Castlevania crew)
[It's been a few days since Dracula went missing, leaving the castle only one person it could rely on to maintain its hold on this world - the usurper. And you better believe it isn't happy about that - it acted up something awful the first couple days, outright attacking both Soma and Sakuya, though it did at least leave Remilia and Flandre alone. They were the right sort of people to be here, after all. Not like these human interlopers.]
[Of course, Soma couldn't let this go on. So he's called a 'family meeting', and forced the castle to pick a representative. One of the Gravekeepers - ironically the same one Dracula used as his messenger, back during the mayor fiasco - sits at one end of the table, with Soma having taken the other. Seats are prepared for the others, including Sakuya. After all, she has a stake in this too.]
CLOAK AND DAGGER (Open)
[Being the new owner of a magic shop has its pros and cons. More of the latter, to be honest, when you're currently the only employee. Would anyone like to come by, maybe offer him a hand, maybe buy something? Dhampir has wares, if you have coin!]
DOLL HELL (Anastasia, Semi-Open)
[It's been an hour or two since Soma literally carried Anya away from his own personal stalker doll. They've set up shop in a relatively public place, a cafe that caters to all sorts in the newer side of Everglade. There's a bit of a subdued, edgy atmosphere in the room right now, because news of the dolls has begun to spread. Several of the people present keep looking over their shoulders, as if expecting to see something there at any given time.]
[Or you might encounter him a little later, by himself, after finding a place for Ana to stay after discovering she can't escape the city. Odds are good he's hunting around the city's other magic shops and suchlike, looking for spells and lore that might be useful.]
