"You know, a couple years ago this all woudl've seemed really strange to me."

It's a hell of a lot easier to do a pupdate when you've only got one current pup. Which I've actually been thinking about lately, in terms of trying to find something for some of the others to do. Mostly what seems to be calling to me are the scifi muses, the Star Wars and the BSG. There's really not a place for them in teamarchangel, though part of me wants to fuck with captainthrace by throwing her in there. "Look, Earth. Welcome the Apocalypse."

But I'm just mean like that sometimes. Ask any of my pups.

And, not that I don't have enough homeless pups, but I'm really tempted to create a Mara Jade (SW) journal, and/or a Helena Cain (BSG). Yeah, because I have so much free time right now and all, to do this. And so much energy.

Right. I do feel like I want to have more than one active character, so I'll probably end up bringing back one of the old pups, or coming up with somebody new after finals.

So. Pupdate. purelypansy, Pansy Parkinson:

Pansy gets stood up by her sister Amaranth in London and is pretty pissed about it. Intending to console herself with a visit to her old friend and occasional lover, Lucius Malfoy, she hops a plane for Paris. Unfortunately, that plane somehow ends up in Wickenburg, Arizona instead. Pans is less than thrilled about this, and much cussing, mostly involving the words "fucking" and "Arizona", ensues.

Bemused, she learns that Sam and Dean, who once randomly crashed one of her parties by landing their Impala on her lawn, now live in this strange little burg. Sam (deathwontstopme) takes her back to his place, where she catches up with Sam and Dean (rocksaltshotgun). They've all been through a lot since that party at Parkinson Manor. Pansy is a little confused to learn that there are multiple Deans and Castiels running around. I don't think she knows about any of the other multiples yet. I threw in a random, if slightly paraphrased, Mummy Returns quote without quite realizing I'd done it till later; "A couple of years ago this would've seemed really strange tome."

She's intrigued by Gabriel (presidingangel) (Pans: Hello, hotness) and joins the gang in their trip to Alton Towers back in England, where she rides roller coasters with Hiro (powered_otaku) and muses that it's strange to be back 'home'. She snarks at Zachariah (im_in_a_meeting) along with everybody else when he shows up at the Winchester-Kane house. I'm looking forward to her reaction when she finds out he was sniffing the laundry.

There's so much to do with a new pup. So many situations to confuse her with, so many new people to meet... This is a different kind of game for me. The last one I played in, my pups knew pretty much everybody, or knew of them, already. Not that they liked all of them, especially if we're talking about Pansy, but.

I feel a little awkward jumping into stuff, like, "Hi, I'm Pansy. New girl. Random houseguest. How's that Apocalypse coming, then?"

It's getting interesting. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
