poor Brent with his journal hijacked for plots

Namely, the plots of Deena's Bad Day and Meanwhile, In Chicago.

Deena's Bad Day, we discussed a little... in the last post, over plurk, over text, and in-person, so this is my attempt to get everyone on the same page. I'm thinking it would be consisting of the Loathsome Lunchbox invasion, getting Deena, Darnell, and Sam and possibly one or two other individuals introduced to each other, and kinda-sorta allied. It's hard to spend a couple of hours cooperating to chase down little robots without finding yourself on fairly friendly terms (probably).

The aftermath of Deena's Bad Day would/could see Darnell investigating the origin of Lunchbox 0 (a statement which makes so little sense out of context, man) and eventually concluding it came from Chicago... where he should go continue his investigation, despite the fact Sam's warned her favourite checker away from Chicago.

"When you said I should stay out of Chicago... what part?"

That would be the point at which Sam directs Darnell to the Currans, (telling him to tell them she sent him and he's on the level) before showing up herself and passing word to Deena. Like Deena, their business serves as a neutral zone/safe space for the occult underground; since she's a friend of their family, she's willing to bank on their helping... at least to the extent of providing a place to meet up/work out of, and helping Darnell stay out of trouble.


Problem #1: Who is the clockworker responsible for Lunchbox 0?
Problem #2: Anybody volunteering to play the clockworker responsible for Lunchbox 0?
Problem #3, a problem for the characters: What to do with the clockworker responsible for Lunchbox 0? If, of course, he or she is successfully located. and not actually 200 bugs in a human suit, or something

The way I understand the spell, she can swap WalMart bathrooms any time, any where. Handy for hassle free travel! XD

Or, a little more specifically, the contents of any two Wal-Mart bathrooms.

I love martomancy.

That's what it was! Nothing like travelling or shipping things via toilet.

No if you want travel via toilet you come 'round to the Sanctum clearly because Stephen's life isn't weird enough.

It could always be weirder where UA is concerned, haha!

His bathroom is like an MC Escher print. Kinda like one of his hall/stairways. The one where you aren't supposed to look into the void beyond too long or your eyeballs may melt out of your skull.

This is legitimate canon his life is weird as hell. Clearly he'll fit in just fine.
