It's hard to believe that I've been here for over a year. I can see the greeting card section now... 'Happy Luceti-versary! I wanted to shift you in a really cool gift but all I got was this stupid card.'

...Admit it, you know they would be that bad.

[A year, and what does he have to show for it? He's uncovered things here and there in pieces, compiled an extensive set of files... and yet he feels no closer to really understanding this place than before. Not only that, but his own personal quest has been delayed so much. It's... kind of depressing. Ok, moving on from that thought for now.]

Not that it's all been gloom and doom here- it's been a valuable experience so far for yours truly. Give or take an experiment or so. There's so much more I still want to know, though... about this place, about the forces in control of it, what causes some people to be drawn here, why some are sent home never to return, why others are stuck here indefinitely... everything.

I guess there's a lot of work ahead...

[Missing time. If he were home at least the explanation could be just straightforward "alien abduction". Damn it, Luceti. Most people would say it's a lost cause to bother looking into. But Mulder has to keep attempting, keep investigating. It's just... how to go about it without the resources he used to have? Sometimes he's been able to compensate, but it's always been a challenge here.]

[He'll be hanging out in the library today, all day, going through a huge pile of books. Most of the titles are about gardening, plant life, and similar botanical topics. Could he be pursuing a Filial Spirit to take his mind off things? But there may also be a few hypnosis books quietly snuck in there too, along with the weirder ones on time from other worlds that looked the most interesting...]


Skipping an entire weekend? Now I know they're deliberately trying to torture us... [Even without 'work' in the standard sense, who likes going to bed Friday to wake up Monday?!] Does anyone remember anything from the past weekend? Or notice any details out of place now for that matter, anything at all?

[Mulder glances around at the latest scenery. He knows this place, knows it all too well. Skyland Mountain. Where they took Scully. Where so many horrible things started for her- the abduction, the experiments, the cancer, the daughter who never got to really live.]

Up, up, ascending... ascending to the stars...

I wonder, if I wait long enough- Look! They're here! Exactly how it really happened.

[Mulder tilts the journal so that the lights off of a UFO can be seen in the night sky.]

I'm gonna go check this out and see what happens. Someone feed my fish if I'm not back soon...

[Except as Mulder approaches the light a very different kind of abduction takes place, as droids sweep out from the surrounding trees. There's gunfire and fighting sounds, along with Mulder cursing a bunch... and then everything is silent.]
most_unwanted: (oh shit!)
[The first day, his room had been just like his office back home. Nice and cozy, and made him miss it. But on day two, Mulder wakes to discover that his room is an Antarctic... paradise. His teeth are chattering like mad as he goes off to head out.]

It's f- -f- freezing in here. I hope I still have all my toes, I haven't bothered to count. And m- my c- closet is now an entrance to a top secret base, but I can't open the damn thing! I keep wondering if I can get into it, would I still be able to find anything? I know it's not really home, but if it's an exact replica...

...By the way, if anyone comes across a shape-shifting, dark haired man, DON'T SHOOT. This is important. I've already encountered a couple of them, there may be more. I- Shit, I've got to run-

[Following days: Until the final day of the event, Mulder will be running around town in pursuit of Alien Bounty Hunters who appear to have quite literally invaded Luceti. He's noticeably not carrying his gun although he's got it on him since he knows there's other stuff around. Instead he's wielding this pointy steel weapon.]
most_unwanted: (working on it)
[There's a quiet crunching sound before Mulder speaks up, sounding thoughtful.]

Show of metaphorical hands. Or antennae, whichever you're partial to: Who here has been kidnapped for a special one-on-one date with our captors? I'd like to arrange an off-journal meeting to speak about your personal experiences if anyone happens to have some free time. It shouldn't take long, just a few minutes. I'll be hanging around the shops in town most of the day, I've got some... supplies I've been meaning to find. [Still looking for a basketball, woe and alas.] We can always head elsewhere from there, though.

I understand that it's a sensitive topic for most people, and it's all right if you'd rather not talk about it. Or if you'd rather be anonymous, just slip a note under my door detailing anything you can remember about the experience itself. Anything at all, before, during, after. Your answers will be kept in confidence. I'm in Community Building 7, Floor 2, Room 10.

[Now he's had more time to practice filters, he's trying one out. He's sure this matter has been brought up before at some point in time anyhow, so it's not like it's too sensitive. But he has to ask, since it seems like people never discuss it. At the moment, Mulder can be seen holding a small handheld mirror and tapping it absentmindedly into the palm of his other hand. He has a thoughtful expression on his face.]

...I bet it's been tried before, but... Has anyone ever had the barcode on the back of their neck examined? Is there a doctor in the house, or anyone with a medical background who's ever tried removing it from someone? ....Or maybe just someone in possession of a state of the art grocery store scanner to check it out? [What, YOU NEVER KNOW.] For that matter, can we be entirely sure they haven't implanted anything additional in us?

Aside from that, I'm almost starting to feel a sense of routine and normality, between my ongoing quest to commune with the spirits and now working on what's essentially becoming the Lucetian X-Files. I have some faint hope that documenting the experiments will give me a better understanding of this place. Although I would kill for a computer to type them out on. Uh... not literally kill, for the record.

A flood of newcomers means I get to officially upgrade my New Feather badge to the next level... [Warning! Warning! Incoming snark mode!] Welcome to paradise, everyone. The food is free, but the TV reception is terrible, the recreational activities consist of reality-altering experiments which will make you wish you were on reality-altering drugs, and the vacation staff running the place have a mysterious fetish for wings. Overall I give this resort a half star. You really should have gone to Disneyworld instead.
