Icon Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I'll be ending my mad little trek across the USA in Los Angeles, as I have plans there that may take awhile. I'd dearly love if I can find people willing to help me out. If you recognize the name, then yes, I'm that Icon. At the age of 18, I've decided to stretch my legs and make some room for myself. It would be nice to see some familiar people. If, on the other hand, I am familiar to you only as a source of unpleasant rumors and undeserved irate scorn, then please do not bother to show up. I am adamant about that. There is no need for us to fight amongst ourselves, when there are so many outside our ranks willing to fight us for whatever deluded reasons. To those willing to extend some generosity, your assistance would be most appreciated. Let us live longer than our enemies, with more joy than we deserve.

z-Infinity Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 WTF? Kid, a 'hey, I'll be in LA, can I couch surf?' works better than that flowery shit.Welcome to LA, regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 I'm afraid "flowery shit" is what I'm wired to do. If I may be so bold, is this an informal invitation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Hey! I'm kind of the municiple defender of LA. That is to say, I'm in with the LAPD and LAFD. I keep my home my own, but if you want to meet in the city when you are around, that would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Hero, that is a wonderful idea, and I would both be honored and intrigued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icon Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 I do quite appreciate the "almost." Would it be alright to visit? The OpNet seems impersonal to me, and I'd like an actual presence to put with the posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Icon, are you a man or a woman?Infinity, what do you mean by "too pretty"? We are in LA after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 [little kid's voice] I'm a boy nova! [/little kid's voice]I have to admit, usually it takes a bit longer before someone has to ask me that. May I asked why you asked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Because I treat boys diffrent than girls ...I live in LA and I wear a skin tight outfit. I may not be "nova" pretty, but I've been called handsome plenty of times. I even have a bit of a fan club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 Ah. I don't hold to that theory, but my upbringing was perhaps unusual compared to others. And there are many praiseworthy things about wearing a skintight outfit and gaining fans because of it. Although I imagine the municipal defender avocation helps in that regard also.

The only way to avoid getting shit on is to not hang out where they want to use the toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastion Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Hang out where I do. It's quiet, simple, and people don't give a shit what you are or how pretty you might think you are.Pretty novas don't really do much for me but gimme wood and a strong desire to knock their asses out.

Hero Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Oh! I'm not a terat either. I'll withdraw from this conversation. I apologize. No deciet was intended. I didn't know you were like that. Bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, it's supposed to be Terat only.I do what I want, say what I want, go where I want, and I post where I want.I'm a nova. Fuck you and your rules. No one tells me what to do.I'm no Terat, and if you have a problem with me posting here, stop by L.A. and do something about it.Bring an army.

Icon Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 He is admirably direct and to the point. Elspeth, I don't know if you recall me. I have some brief memories of the time I was in Sierra Leone with the Pandaimonion, and we met briefly. You were very busy at the time with some unpleasantness or another, and I certainly hope you and yours are doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elspeth Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 You are hard to forget even if the meeting was brief. Things at home are going, but it is difficult. PU is flexing their muscles and influencing the corporations to treat us unfairly. They don't want to accept fair trade agreements, they have us in a bad position so they are using that to try and make us accept bad deals. In the mean time many people are getting hungry here.It should be over soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 You're very kind.I hope to establish myself here in Los Angeles fairly quickly. I would be honored, once so established, if you could take time and visit. My first glimpses of the city...well, despite what they say about the expansion of Mumbai's Bollywood, this city still has quite many things to do and many ways to draw one in. My impromptu entourage has been very helpful. It's so frustrating unpacking even the limited supplies I brought with me. I so much just want to sightsee! There are some impressive spots to watch the people and enjoy the scenery. I've certainly found the natives quite friendly, despite the stereotypes to the contrary. Be careful, though: traffic around here is dangerous! I can't begin to tell you the number of car accidents that I've seen up close and personal these past few days.

Ptesan-Wi Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Well, I am a Terat. Hau, Icon. I am not in Los Angeles - it is not my element - but I welcome you to the message board.Oh, and Bastion? I'm still waiting for that visit. Inyan Kara. Black Hills, first mountain on the left. Can't miss it.- Ptehehincalasanwin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 Ptesan-Wi, greetings! Your reputation precedes you. Well, if anyone knows alternate means of contacting people in the LA area, I'm looking for a place to crash until I can get a base of operations set up. Elspeth, when I get set up, we should discuss my getting a fundraiser/awareness concert set up for you. Publicity is something that PU shies away from like vampires hate sunlight. The Directive also.
