Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap

Looking at the girl Zona smirked some, "Yes I'm done." She said as she turned slightly to the cat on her shoulder "You comin' or ya stayin'?" And with that the cat jumped down from her shoulder and landed on the table next to them, "Meow." "Of course." Zona said with an unimpressed look on her face. Walking over to the door, she held it open as she gestured for the girl to go out it. "So, where are we headed?" Zona asked with a raised eyebrow.

Tilly was staying. Ok that's fine. Elaine almost skipped out the door. "Ok come on! I can't exactly tell you where we're going or why because it is a surprise and I'm determined to keep it that way." The girl said matter-of-factly. She grabbed Zona's left hand and pulled her gently trying to get her to go faster. "Besides were already gonna be late with you and your shopping!" She said. "I hope you like surprises." She teased. "You better like this one! I worked too hard on my end of the bargain for you not to enjoy it." The girl let go of her hand and started chatting like it wasn't anybody's business. "So how you been?" Elaine stretched her arms up over her head as she walked. "Mums asking." She added grinning.
Clancy was jogging down the streets of the theater district, checking his watch as he ran. He was late and that was not a good thing. Zona's birthday party was going on today! He couldn't be late for that. His only excuse was that he slept in late and that was not a reasonable excuse to begin with. To be honest, he needed to bring something or someone to make up for his lateness. Jogging past Keefe's shop he skidded to a halt then turned to look in. Keefe was a nice guy! He didn't think Zona had met him yet. They should meet, he had this feeling that they would like each other. Banging Keefe's door open, he called out loudly, pure excitment radiating off his heaving body "KEEFE, I'M KIDNAPPIN' YA. YER COMMIN' WITH ME! RIGHT NOW!"

Keefe had just put the bucket in the back and the rag away, as he then walked up to the front of his store where he began to rearrange the paintings. Just then he looked up and noticed a familiar pink haired man race past his shop. "Oh my... He's in a hurry." Keefe said as he took two paintings down and began to walk into the back, but not before having the same pink haired fellow nearly brake down his door. "KEEFE, I'M KIDNAPPIN' YA. YER COMMIN' WITH ME! RIGHT NOW!" Keefe stared at the man slightly confused him as he held the paintings rather awkwardly in his hands, "...But Paintings?"

Zona couldn't get a word out as the girl babbled and talked. Whatever was happening and where ever Elaine was taking Zona, she knew the girl was absolutely ecstatic about it. As she was pulled along all Zona could do was smile and listen to the girl, "Oh the joys of bein' able to talk like that." Zona thought as she walked next to the girl. "Really your mom want to know?" Zona asked, having a hard time believing someone wanted to know about how she was doing. "Well I can say I've been better, it still hurts like hell here and there, but it's doin' fine. Though I'm havin' a hard time not usin' it." Zona said as she rolled her right shoulder some, letting the pain grow slightly before having it dull back down.

"Of course my Mum's asking! She really wants you to drop back by sometime." Elaine leaned over and put a hand up as if trying to hide what she was saying. "She really likes you, I rarely bring friends home." She whispered loudly. Then she straightened back up. "I swear she's adopted you." The girl grinned. "Glad its doing better though." Elaine watched her roll her shoulder experimentally. She hoped she never got shot. Although with her line of work nothing could be guaranteed. "Ok, so we are taking this venture off the beaten path." Elaine turned sharply to the left headed towards the outskirts of town. "You should come back over an hang out sometime. Maybe get a book." She suggested.

As Zona listened to what Elaine was saying a small smile broke out from her face. No one ever really liked her, besides Elaine Zona knew people but none of them really cared for her let alone liked her. But Elaine's mother... Whether it was an expression or reality Elaine did say that her mother would adopt her if she could. "Does... Does she really mean that?" Zona said as she looked up at the girl with a rather hopeful expression on her face.

The girl turned glanced at her friend. Her smile getting bigger. "If Victoria Anncroft says it, it is true." Elaine poked Zona's arm. "She likes your personality. And your hair." The girl added recalling the conversation with her mother. "Dad says if your ever bored you can come help out at the shop." Elaine looked around. "But don't do it. He's been trying to lure people in to help for years. I, alas, being one of those unfortunate souls.." She paused for dramatic effect. "Have managed to escape and warn others!" She jumped at Zona laughing. Seriously though her parents loved Zona. If Elaine was close to someone they loved that person as their own. "By the way we are sisters if anyone asks." Elaine winked and looked forward to make sure she didn't trip over anything.

Zona quietly listened as she stared at the street, watching each foot step she took. "Wow..." Zona mumbled under her breath as the smile grew slightly large. A feeling washed over Zona that she never felt before, it was something that she couldn't explain and even if she tried it would never make sense. But one thing was for sure, it was a good, and happy feeling. Zona then snapped back to reality when Elaine added something about the two of them being sisters. "Hey just to warn you, I may suck as a sister. I've never had a sibling so I have no idea with what all happens in a family like that." Zona joked some with a smile. She enjoyed being around this girl, she could be fun.

"Don't worry you'll get used to it." Elaine chuckled. "So anyways how was shopping?" She asked about Zona's day genuinely interested. She had a feeling Z didn't get very many questions about herself. Elaine was actually trying to make herself laid back. But the excitement building in her was making that very hard. She was happy to spend time with her friends. Honestly she had never had as many as she did now. She usually kept to herself. But between Keefe, Lasair, Zona, and not to mention several others she had a wide range of people to talk to. It made her very content.

"Ehh... It was just shopping. Gettin' what needs to be got." Zona said as she shrugged her shoulders. She couldn't believe everything that was happening and being said here, first with her mother then with the questions. Zona defiantly wasn't used to all this. "But hey it defiantly wasn't as fun or excitin' as the time we went." Zona added with a smile as she shoved her hands in her pocket.

"Well that is usually what shopping is." Elaine said looking left to right before waking across a busy street. "Ha, I bet not. It isn't everyday we get into trouble like that." She said brushing off her shoulder after a man walked by with a bag of grains. It had a hole in it and with the man obviously being taller than her it trickled out of the bag and onto her. She glared at the back of his head before steeping to the side closer to Zona. "Well, get ready to be surprised." She said stepping into grass at the edges of town.

"Ahhh.... Ok...." Keefe said with wide eyes as he was dragged to the door. Keefe fumbled some as he tried to gently put the paintings he had in his other hand down. He just managed to do so before they got out the door. "Now hold on!" Keefe said as the two got out of the door. Slipping his hand away from the pink haired man, Keefe Walked back to the door some. Shutting it, he grabbed he keys from his pocket and locked the door, "You can't just leave your house with the door unlocked." Keefe said as he pulled the keys out and put them back in his pocket.
Clancy obliged and let go of his friends hand but he bounced up and down, checking his clock every two seconds. "Why not? Ah leave mine unlocked all tha time. Nobody's taken anythin' from me yet. This city's so nice. Anywho, we're going to my best friend's birthday party! You'll love 'er! She's really nice an' cool. Oh! But she may be ah bit stand-offish at time but she's ah real sweetheart," he babbled on, gushing about his dear friend eagerly. "Now come on! We're late!" Once the door was locked he grabbed Keefe's wrist and started to run again, beyond eager to get going.
