Hm. Not the existence I was expecting... but perhaps an improvement, nonetheless.

Good morning, afternoon, and evening!
We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)
I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.
Ta for now!

[[Did something he doesn't approve of. I might be a bit rusty with him... It's been years.]]
Did you really think I'd just idle by and let you have my brother fight those goddamn freaks by himself?
You're not planning on letting the "heroic madman" out as you call him, so I'm going to have to go out there--maybe start looking for that old tome myself, and help him out.
Oh, and just so we're perfectly clear; I don't sing.
[There's a slightly awkward pause as he admits-] Not in public. So don't you start thinking up something really out there, like sing-offs, or rap battles--whatever.
[He knows you well enough. You would ponder over crazy, WEIRD crap like that, Player.]
I don't really give a shit over the bitch and her creatures being musically talented. I only just became aware of that. But hey, they might easier for us to find and get rid of, in a way... [He pauses, as he's recalling to himself a moment on which of that insanity eldritch goddess's creatures are actually not-so-easy to eliminate.] Well, most of them.

[Dark music plays in the background as the immensely large Xel'lotath's Black Guardian sways side to side to the mid-tempo rhythm, as she sings the bridge part to her latest original song... She waits for some who may want to collaborate with her, for scenes and inspiration for more song ideas.]
We will dance in the chaos,
Unlocking forbidden inspiration.
We shouldn't let anything prevent this...
Shaking up Little Ones with determination.
We will dance in the chaos,
Unlocking forbidden inspiration.
We shouldn't let anything prevent this...
Shaking up Little Ones with determinationnnnnn!
[Breathy inhale-exhale-inhale-exhale-inhale-exhale. From here, she proceeds to sing the final round of the chorus.]
Chooooose me, you creative little thing~
Chooooose me [inhale-exhale, inhale-exhale]
Chooooose me. My best performance I'll bring~
Chooooose me. Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-choose me!

[[A monstrous trap/pop horrorcore singer (AU-sh twist)! canon - Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem]]
[Any wandering soul may notice a giant monster that's headless. Instead of a head is a slightly hovering, glowing rune in its place--and yet, the Black Guardian can still speak! Her amused voice would come from nowhere and everywhere all at once... (About half of Xel'lotath's creations, including this one, seem to lack heads, but that doesn't at all stop them from moving around and sensing the presences of others.)]
"Old stomping grounds"... Yes, I wouldn't put it any other way.
You'd like to gain more inspiration for writing new lyrics and song concepts with me, correct? Why not revisit someplace familiar?
[The Black Guardian's snickering reverberates all around as she hovers and floats some feet above the ground.] I also might gain some collaborators, and receive enough flesh in the process...
[Uhhh, sure. Just please don't try making a snack out of any humans who may come and go, alright? Not here. ^^; And let's also give opportunities for the other members of Team Insanity around DW RP while we're at it!]

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.
Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.
Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.
