UK Angel plot updates

Okay, guys. Two huge mega-posts in a row the last two days, and those of us coordinating the UK part of the Angel plot are only going to have a couple people finding stuff we need tonight.

That doesn't mean you can't have fun in Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley. Just no, you're not going to be in on the finding of ingredients. Someone coordinating with the Angel plot will do that. To save all our sanity.

Timeline for today, Diagon Alley. )

Angel Plot: I need a Chosen One. Or Two.

I'm in need of one Chosen One, possibly two, to be witness to some headdesking and medical geekery.

Said Chosen Ones will need to be up for showing up to the FTEC clinic tonight for whatever reason they want (visit Angel, get a band-aid, pick up some aspirin, whatever) and getting shanghaied by Janet for a quick blood draw so she can see if there's something special in a Chosen One's blood? (The answer? Yes, there's something special. No, I won't specify what it is if you don't want me to. No, it isn't necessarily the same thing as the next Chosen One, but it may well be very similar.)

To be played tonight, probably around 8:30 or so CST.

ETA: Got my two Chosen Ones; thank you to everyone. Coming shortly? Blood Drive of the Chosen Ones org post--but only after I eat lunch.

UK plot, small surprise-- shhh!

A fun and harmless idea that if you're in the UK, you can do today without it messing up the plot at all.

Angel, keep out! Surprise! (Veronica? Check this for him, to make sure there's no conflict) )

Blood Drive of the Chosen Ones

First, my disclaimer: I'm trying to draw information out of this and this planning post, plus various other assorted comments made while chatting with people. That means that if I am in error on anything, please let me know. I may not have remembered everything correctly.

Okay! Now for the real info! Find the ridiculously lengthy plotty behind the cut. )


Any questions? Comments? OMG, wait for the OCD threads before replying! Yes, I'm OCD. So? Threads are up, go post your comments now.

Vampires and the cures that love them

Just to keep everyone in the loop: the alchemy part of the cure will be done tomorrow. I believe everything else is being done on Friday.

It occured to me that if Angel keeps having total improvements with each part of the cure he'd simply fight even harder to not drink human blood. So what I'm going to do is say that, like Alfred with the antitoxin, it will take a symptom away (In Alfred's case, the broody coma) but it will not give him a wholesale improvement.

Also the symptoms that remain will continue to get worse until Friday.

I'm still deciding which symptom and may not figure that out until I see the alchemy in action, but just to give y'all the heads up that that's how it's going to go. He'll get an improvement of a sort, but there'll still be a downward spiral that makes it clear this poison will kill him if he doesn't take the cure.
