November 4th, 2012 01:36 amseclusionUm, hello! I mean, 'good morning!' I wanted to say hi...
Oh, and a couple of other things, too. Well, I went out front a little bit ago. It was pretty nice! The weather here is a bit nippy, but... [He sighs, refreshed-sounding, and there's a little tapping noise like - like he might be patting his cheeks.] It feels good on my face. I should probably find a coat, though... Oh, anyway, while I was out, I found some birds, I think four of them, hopping around on their little bird feet. [He laughs.] At least, I thought they were birds, but while I was feeding them some soda crackers, this old lady came out nearby and said, "Don't feed those! They'll never leave!" [His imitation of the woman's voice is gravelly and probably awful.] I asked her, "Do you want them to leave?" and she said, "They're rats on wings!"
Wow. I didn't even know that rats could have wings. I think rats are okay, but I guess I can see she wouldn't want them around, and they're probably good enough at finding food on their own. Still, I was really surprised, rats on wings! There wasn't anything like that at home. So it really made me think...
I decided that I wish I could know about all these worlds. All these lands and cities, and birthplaces and homes. There are so many more than I ever thought I'd wonder about. My home is on a plain, with rocks and plants and I think trees, and some flowers, and a wide, wide sky overhead. There aren't any people around for a while; it's just my house, that's all. But this is such a big city, and I realized that a lot of you probably came from those, or came from places by the sea, or in deep forests or on high mountains. I thought that was amazing. My butler's read to me about places like this, but just because I tried to sniff the salt shaker doesn't mean I know what it's like to smell the sea air. [He's laughing again, a short sound with a lot of mirth.]
And I also know that some of you came from places that are very dirty or sad... Burned down places or places without plants. I mean, I don't know that for sure, but I bet it's true. Still, even a place like that... People are born there, so they're places full of life. Um, maybe I'm just getting a lot of perspective here or something! But there are a whole lot of lives and they're all crashing into each other here and now. Isn't that so weird? But cool!
I thought I was going to make a better point than this, but I didn't end up doing it. I guess the best thing I can say is a question:
If you don't mind, would you have a little bit of time to tell me a picture of a place you like? Thanks for listening!

A New Addition to the Newcomer Memorial
This morning locals were surprised to discover a metal sculpture holding a mysterious flame in the middle of the memorial. The Memorial was put up last year in an effort headed by Sam Merlotte, a Newcomer ironically no longer among us as of very recently, as a monument to vanished Newcomers. It is often the target of vandalism and graffiti.
The flame is baffling local authorities. It has no obvious source of fuel, no kindling, coal, gas, or detectable magic to fuel it, and has resisted every attempt, magical or otherwise, to put it out. Authorities don't know what will happen to it come sirens, but at least one news source is looking for an intrepid reporter to brave the night and see if this flame can withstand even the darkness.
The sturdy tongue of fire is burning inside a metal basin on a stone dias in the middle of a wide circle of curb-high stone. Carved around the edge of the circle are the words "We shall find peace. We shall hear angels, we shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds."
Authorities believe the sudden, overnight addition to the Memorial is the work of a powerful Newcomer, possibly inspired by the Core activity of November 1st.
[So, if anybody investigates the eternal flame to see what will happen to it at night- a glass dome will rise out of the edge of the basin at sirens and cover the flame protectively. It'll keep burning all night, despite having no oxygen in the dome, and the dome will vanish smoothly in the morning. There's no sign anywhere on the metal basin that there's any kind of retracting dome or anything- for all intents and purposes, the dome comes out of nowhere.]

noshrimpHello. This is Anya again.
I hope everyone had a very satisfactory Halloween. I find it very tacky and slightly offensive, but it is also a very lucrative sales period if you stock eye of newt. Shakespeare was at least accurate in that respect, even if I found many of his writings badly researched. Many of the first performances were overacted as well, but I suppose that's not his fault.
I wanted to ask about the Darkness. Has anyone pinpointed its exact source? There are suggestions that it is demonic in nature, but I've certainly never heard of it before which is strange. I know about most demons, even Canadian demons. Does anyone else have a theory?
