Fortune Panda now has a new menu of light summer items as well as an outdoor grill area. There are also some seats outside since the weather is getting better.

[This wasn't his original reason to make a post, but he wanted to add something to the post other than his own personal, uh, punishment of sorts for actions these past months. Which is an announcement.]

And starting from... now. You may start addressing me as Emiya instead of Archer. That's my real name. Just that. I will still continue to answer to Archer as well but I won't have any preferences.

[That's it. That's the announcement. He definitely didn't need to post about it in public, but he's doing it because he's been an idiot.]

[ Outside the cottage that Gareth shares with Kadoc, the young knight is working up a sweat, dressed down to a tank top with a towel draped over her shoulders. It's hard to ignore just how much lean muscle the seemingly petite woman has in a situation like this.

She pulls a swig from her water bottle, sighing. ]

It's hard to believe I'm spending another summer in this Avalon. It really leads one to think, you know?

About time... about what it even means in a place like this. About what's going to become of all of us when this is over...

It sort of makes one think they should use their time here more urgently, right?

[ One big swig. A long pause, and... ]

... I really need to get out more.

Does anyone have any vegan or just any non-meat recipes to share? (っ˘ڡ˘ς)

My friend doesn’t eat meat so I’d like try making some stuff for him. You know, just something new to try.

Preferably meals, please. Thank you.

Okay, so this is the coolest place I've seen.

( hello, Avalon. welcome to the life and times of an excitable, gushing teenager. she swings her phone camera around with the ease of any good teenager and shows off... well, typical Camelot architecture. houses built into trees, rain puddling down in chunks as it rolls off the leaves shielding her from the worst of the April weather. )

You guys, like, really live like this? How do you heat a house when it's attached to a tree? Isn't that, like, a fire hazard?

( look, they didn't teach her much about nature back in Dewell but they did teach her that trees = wood = burn-y. )

Oh, so, um, funny story! I was, like, scrolling while I was on my way here and ended up with a job selling bags! ( ah. there's the reason this video's happening. Rosa moves the camera back to her to reveal a handbag in, well, her hand. )

I've got a buncha 'em still for sale so, like, tell me which you want! Otherwise they're gonna get — ( her words are cut off by a shrill yelp as a giant blob of water drops down her neck. ugh, cold. so cold. ) — soaked! Like me, okay, byeeeeeeee!

( yeah, a girl's gotta turn this off and find a place to hide from all this rain. )

In the spirit of Spring, name someone you have a crush on~. Don't be shy now, I'm sure there's at least one or two people here that makes your heartbeat fast. ;3

[She's in a fantastic mood, please let her gush over how cute you guys are. Feel free to tag each other too~]

stonebird

(A large grey direwolf is howling not far from her, her fluffy tail wrapped around her great paws. Sansa listens to the song, happy to share it with any listeners. There are words that are too old for language and they deserve to be heard.

After the performance is concluded and the wolf launches herself into the dark, unafraid, Sansa finally speaks:)

What do they know? Why do they bind themselves to us?

(She understands why a direwolf was drawn to her. The bird has shed her feathers and grown fur, fangs and claws instead.)

What do wolves represent in your world?

beaumains

[ She's really not fond of making posts where it's obvious she's been dealing with injuries. She's kind of sick of the feeling of burdens that come with it. But this is something she has to do, regardless, sighing as she sets up the camera, itching a bit near the bandage over her head. ]

Hello. Sir Gareth of Orkney here, again... [ Not much energy in that greeting, huh? ]

So... The truth of the matter is, much as I've tried, I don't actually... remember anything from after Rubion cursed me, but...

I know... I lost control... and while I know not what I did in that rage, I know it was all I felt. The sort of anger that feels like Inferno in your chest.

[ She takes a moment, sucking in a breath, before making eye contact with the camera, and then... bowing. ]

To anyone I might have hurt... I apologize, from the bottom of my heart. I can hardly still call myself a knight, knowing what I have done, but... I can't let that shame keep me from making amends, either.

[ She rights herself, nodding. ]

If you've any request of me, I shall see it done. Just say the word.

beaumains

It's almost Imbolc time, isn't it?!

[ It's pretty sudden, the way the feed cuts on and there's Gareth's sunny expression. All frustrations from earlier about her brush with wolfy-ness had been worked past, at least until next full moon, and she realizes she has something she really needs to focus on! ]

I've got to gather some fresh herbs for butter cakes, certainly. But I'm sure there's other work to be done heading into Saint Brigid's Day, too.

If anyone's curious about the holiday, feel free to ask! Or, if you want to help me gather herbs, I'd appreciate the help. It's tougher than it sounds, given there's still plenty of snow and cold about.

[ Gareth lets out a light laugh, rubbing the back of her head, and lets that sit a moment, worrying her lower lip before, hesitantly, saying the next thing. ]

It's... strange, isn't it? Maybe it's because spring is the season so strongly associated with companionship, but winter can be really lonely, right?

[ Her cheeks burn slightly, the words having finally gotten out, but she just as quickly shakes her head, waving her free hand before the camera. ]

F-forget I said that! No sense in spreading that kind of gloom, right? Anyways, I hope you all enjoy herb-butter cake! I'm going to be baking up plenty, even if you don't celebrate the holiday!

Those who know what "beta testing" means... don't do it. It's not worth it.

I'm going to be sleeping at the inn for a while. Don't come looking for me.

This is mostly for people that I know but... Is there anyone here able to do a bit of housesitting later this month? I'll probably be gone for most of the month, and my familiar won't be able to take care of the place while I'm away.

If anyone's interested, I can offer a bit of compensation for your time and efforts. It won't be all that hard either, just water some plants and occasionally clean the place up.

You know I never thought I’d get this back while I was here. It never did fit quite right, but it is a male’s uniform.

[She was currently finishing up some adjustments to her traditional uniform. The bear skin hat sitting off to the side nearby, while officer’s saber was strapped secure to her side. Short hair tied up in a tight bun and a number of honors pinned to her chest. She probably looks near the part of a nutcracker if the uniform itself didn’t look so very crisp and official.

In hindsight it was probably a bit silly to ask for such a thing. But to feel it on her and see herself in it again made her feel… well a bit more comfortable with herself. She smiles and giggles before saying, in a low mock of a male’s voice.]

“België, as the Battlefield of Europe, you and your brothers must at least project the look of strength. And that, starts with proper clothes and armor.”

[Another giggle followed by a sigh and shake of her head. Placing the hat on her head as the final touch.]

If you say so, Mr. Charlemagne… Anyway! How do I look? Do you all think it’s a bit much? I mean we are potentially meeting with a queen after all!

[She does a little turn, still smiling away!]

Oh, and maybe I should do a blue beret sometime in the future too, considerin' that I'm also technically a UN representative... and really the only one here.

[One thing at time though! She certainly seems excited about it at the very least!]

I'm afraid I must be brief.

Feral Hawk is no longer in Avalon.

To his friends, his employee Master Gokudera, I am truly sorry.

Thank you for your time.

facebite

[ When the camera first turns on, it's a pretty blinding white as the light levels adjust to all the snow and sunlight about. It takes a moment, but eventually the picture becomes clear and the lens turns to Gareth, who gives a bright smile and wave before setting the camera up on a nearby post to point at what she'd been doing. ]

Let's see... Hello all! Sir Gareth of Orkney here, and, well, I hope the weather's not being too much of a bother. Usually it snows much later in winter, where I'm from, so this all came as a surprise for me, too...

[ Now that the work of plowing down the snow to more reasonable levels outside of the home she shared with Kadoc was done, Gareth had set about something else, standing aside to gesture at two snowy sculptures of vaguely familiar figures. ]

Ah, it probably needs some work, right?

[ Snow sculpting, even with Elemental magic, was harder than it looked. ]

Well, all snow aside, I'm also trying out some new scone recipes, and nothing warms the blood like good scones, a beer, and a fire to sit beside! I've got all three, here, if you want a chance to put up your feet for a bit!

[For anyone tuning into the network and are interested the screen flashes to show a picture and Belgium's voice.]

( cut for picture )

Hello to all of you brewers and alcohol enthusiasts out there~! I'm here to announce a festival for all of us enthusiasts and the general public to get together to enjoy some delightful spirits on Christmas! Or a form of Christmas I suppose, whether or not you know what that is, doesn't matter though. The purpose of the festival is to help promote local breweries from around Camelot. While other business and local restaurants are, of course, free and welcomed to pitch in. The main point is that of alcohol and building up networks, discovering new tastes and generally having fun during the mid-winter month.

We already have a permit for space downtown (She'll insert a link to a location for it) and will have plenty of space for everyone. Though if you wish for your business to participate I would still recommend that you sign up for it early on to reserve some of the better spots~! There will be a small fee to help cover the costs of reservations and anyone who signs up to help as part of the staff. Though, based on projected sales, that really should be negligible.

Hm, what else...? Oh! If you have any suggestions, or wish to help out then let me or one of the other attendants know and we can get you set up! We'll probably need security, a wait staff, and people to help with set up and break down. Of course you shall be compensated for your time and effort as well~!

As an aside, I was sick with the... flu earlier and ended up sneezing up a bunch of poppies. I was going to plant a few in my café and give the rest away. For anyone who wants to help just let me know. You'll be treated to some snacks and cocoa as well as be given however many flowers you'd like.

Just... the only thing I ask is that after you're done planting, take a few seconds of silence. It's important. Please.

[ooc: As a note, while she says sign up, everyone interested doesn't need to officially sign up for anything if they want their character and their business to participate in the future~! *edits are due to me not making up my mind also found a picture of Santa holding a glass of Trappist beer and couldn't resist.]

[ Rider smiles as the video starts. He’s less formally dressed than normal, lacking his jacket and hat and two buttons on his dark blue shirt are undone – casual mode! ]

As I’m sure we’re all aware, we’ve got a bit of a humanitarian crisis on our hands. There are a lot of people that can use help. The best way to help is money. People are more likely to give money when there’s an incentive to donate, as I’m sure most of you know – a gift or something to accompany their donation.

[ He motions to a wall calendar behind him. What’s on the calendar isn’t clear at first, but that’s not important right now. He keeps talking for now. ]

Calendars are a popular gift this time of year, perfect for the coming new year, but you need interesting subject matter – cute animals, nature photos, things like that.

[ Now he takes the calendar off the wall to reveal its subject matter. The cover shows your stereotypical wizard posed suggestively with a staff and a strategically torn robe to highlight his muscle with the title of WIZARDS GONE WILD. ]

I’m suggesting something, well, a little more suggestive. Some of you are keen on showing off your bodies publicly [ He’s not naming names, but y’all know who you are. ] so why don’t we capitalize on that?

[ He flips through the pages of the calendar, showing wizards of all genders in any number of suggestive poses and states of undress before hanging it back up. ]

Why don’t we do a cheeky little pinup calendar? Anyone of age is more than welcome to volunteer to pose for photos…and we’re probably going to need capable photographers. Given the nature of the project, there’s no pay, but I’m not going to be making any money off of this, either. All profit over the printing costs of the calendar will be given directly to refugee-organized charities.

Thank you in advance to any and all volunteers who want to have a little fun for a good cause.

[ Rider then chuckles as he puts on a charming smile. ]

And if it helps put everyone’s mind at ease, I’ll be posing for this, too.

It's funny to me how we have pumpkins running rampant and other sort of spooky stuff when this place has never heard of Halloween. Though sure, pumpkins are a part of autumn anyway.

That being said, advice to anyone who might need it: don't go trick or treating unless you want to get arrested by knights. This isn't America, going to knock people's doors asking for candy and threatening them with a prank isn't going to go well.

Good Afternoon, Avalon. For those I haven't met yet, I go by 'Caster' here.

[Despite her gloating in the aftermath of the Celliwig 'event', Caster was in an unusually somber mood...

Still, she gave a subdued smile as gestured with her staff to the vineyard around her, and the cute-yet-ominous little shop attached to it. Despite her insistence that she wasn't a witch, it very much looked like a witch's potion shop!]

I had hoped to wait for a better time to make this announcement but, well, I think there's plenty of people who could use a decent drink at the moment. So- I've finally been able to open up my Potion Shop and Winery here. I call it 'Pick Your Poison'.

[She gives the address.]

I'll be selling potions that I've managed to brew during my time here, which I hope will prove useful- there's some that can be used for helping keep a house clean or improve your sleep better, others that improve your vision in darkness or help you resist fire. I will be adding to my stock periodically, so do keep your eyes open.

The wines I'm selling are those that I have brewed in-house, trying to get as close to traditional Colchian wine as I can. There will be free samples available to anyone who wants to try before buying, so do come and see what you think.

...And if the name of my Homeland means anything to you, I don't object to answering questions, so long as its kept private.

[After all, admitting she was a Sorceress hailing from Colchis narrowed her identity down quite a bit...perhaps that was the closest she'd get to being public with her True Name, at least for now.]

On a...different note. I want to do something for those who've disappeared from this realm. Many people have come and left, and I can't be aware of all of them.

I've left a large book in the entranceway of the shop, so, feel free to write the names of those you miss here who have returned home, if you wish. I don't know exactly what to do with it just yet, but it seems callous to simply forget them.

Ah. And I can't say I'm usually the sort for public announcements like this, but-... but Homura's disappeared, to those it may concern.

[Caster went quiet for a brief moment, before recovering her focus.]

If you have lost someone close recently and feel comfortable enough to tell me, the first bottle of wine is on me.

For those that knew of and were friend to Sir Gawain of Orkney, Son of Lot, Holy Sword of the Round Table

He is gone from this world, his room empty, as is his stable.

Had you any unfulfilled business or affairs, I shall take responsibility for them as his closest kin within this world.

Thank you, kindly, and I wish you well.

- Sir Gareth of Orkney.
