-Retail, Hotel and Food Service Workers at Underground Mall Threaten Strike
Complaints of low wages, bad management and extended overnight shifts threaten to shutdown the island’s most popular after-dark shopping center and midnight playground. Rumors have been flying about if or when a strike may take place, but petitions have been made to over 75% of the independant businesses, some with the backing of AGI or SERO affiliated labor organizers

. Underground Mall Clubs Association Astrid Keelson tells press she is in talks with worker representatives, who have not unionized formally, but threaten to sit-out work during the mall’s busiest season.

- ”Black Cat Friday” @ Caregood Pound
If you’re thinking about adopting a cat for the holidays, our animal shelter is having a “Black Friday” sale this week, where you can adopt any adult black cat for only $20. Black cats have the least chance for adoption, and a lot of them end up dying in shelter or being put down. They also have a high rate for being mutilated and/or killed by abusers. Keep this in mind if you’re looking to adopt this year!

[You see Willow at work, in the store and she's quietly looking over a book, marking pages with brightly coloured sticky notes. What she hasn't realised though, that there's one stuck to her cheek, one stuck to her left arm and if you're lucky enough to be here in person? She sat on one and now it's happily stuck to her butt. The NV is propped up against her, there's a stack of books next to her and some festive giftwrap just in view.]

Is anyone good with giftwrap? I am so not good at giftwrap. It's awkward and annoying and it tears easily and why could Anya do it when I can't?

[She looks tired, and there is a big mug of coffee sat next to her. She yawns, before her eyes close for a moment and she looks at the camera.]

If someone could give me lessons before the big holiday rush? I'd appreciate it. I've been researching things and time... [Another yawn.] Time is getting away from me.

Life is balance.

From the deepest darkness, a world of light was brought forth -- sometimes with words, at other times with song -- and since that moment, the forces of both Light and Darkness have clashed in various times and places.

In the midst of such trials, there are times we lose sight of that which is most precious.

I would encourage you all to cleave to that which you hold dear and remember the purpose for which you stand.

[ Disturbed as he rarely is, Aslan wanders the decaying streets, clearing particularly infested areas of the creatures that roam the Darkness. His inner light repels the city's miasma, a golden beacon that illuminates the night.

Any who dare to venture out into the Darkness are welcome to join him at any time. ]
