Luceti Valley - The First Log

[lucetimods]

Who: Everyone
What: The start of a new experiment... or is it?
When: August 2nd - August 6th
Where: Luceti itself
Summary: Luceti has become an idyllic and peaceful 50s-esque village. The first few days are just business as usual, right?
Rating: Varies with thread. Please move explicit stuff to appointments post with appropriate warnings.

August 1st had seemed like an ordinary day in Luceti. But late in the evening, for those night owls who had not turned in yet, they were witness to strange fluctuations in the barrier. Beautiful, really, almost like Luceti had received its own 'Northern Lights', even though it seemed to come from the far east, across the ocean. This ominous light show lasted for all of fifteen minutes before it ceased all together. Skimming the ocean waters, a horde of cultists entered Luceti, cloaked by darkness. Upon reaching the entrance to the tunnels, their leader stepped inside and was followed one by one by his fellow cultists. When the last had entered, the tunnel entrance closed. Across the mountains, the entrance to the tunnels in the village did the same.

Midnight passed without incident, but by three in the morning, the change suddenly came. Minds were altered, forms were changed, and buildings sprang from nowhere.

Much later, on August 2nd, morning settled on a changed village, the new mayor made his way to his mansion with his pair of adorable dobermans at either side of him. The sun shined bright. It was a good day to be a Lucetian.

Note: There will be a stand alone log for the homecoming dance. There will be another log for the second stage of the event.

[Seriously, sometimes? This whole high society life thing can be utterly overrated. So she never exactly committed the same sort of scandals as her older sister. But she has her own secrets that would more than easily tarnish the family name. Thankfully, Theodore's been her trusted confidant pretty much since they were in diapers. He won't tell anyone.

But that was a couple of years ago. And right now, she's a little more preoccupied with her mother's latest lecture on dating appropriate men. Not some sort of lower class veteran twice her age. Whatever. She's eighteen. Despite what her parents think, she's too young to get married. All she wants is to have fun.

Grumpy and frustrated, she stormed into Natasha's room and slumped into the nearest chair.]

How do you deal with them so easily?

[widows_kiss]

Years upon years upon years of practice. I should be nominated to sainthood for patience, I think.

[Natasha's voice is wry and for a moment, she doesn't even look up as she finishes the line she'd been writing before glancing over at her sister with a fond look.]

What have they done this time?

[tryit]

[She gives an exaggerated roll of the eyes, completely with an over dramatic sigh.

It's deserving for the situation. Really, it is.]

Lectured me about dating Clint. Again.

[widows_kiss]

Of course they did. [She gives her sister a knowing look and leaned back in her chair, giving her her full attention.] I hope you don't anticipate that stopping anytime soon. They don't approve of him, Katie. And I can't really see that changing anytime soon. They don't take well to having their plans thwarted. [Her lips quirk faintly at that.] I should know.
