Turning off the vulgarity now? Well, isn't that just amusing. I wonder, will you turn blood an especially vile color as well so that the children aren't disturbed? Let us find out; I'm terribly irritable as of late and an experiment or two should lighten the mood.

And, next time, it would be best if you didn't change my brandy into some sort of energy drink. Curse or no curse.

I forgot just how affective neurotoxins are. And with such a high dose coming from my new companion, it didn't take long for the pest to die. To watch it was somewhat of an interest and one I mentally note. The breathing slowed, the lungs expanded and deflated; it was to the ticking of the clock, it seemed. Funny how nature and industry intertwine at the most appropriate of moments.

23:45 was the time of death. Quick, painful. And the body? Far gone by now, down into the belly of the beast, as it were. An extra spice to the still-warm meal.

But, back to business. What is new?

Oh these new heels are killing me. It was a slow night last night, meine Liebchen, and I am out, and I mean completely box-empty, of cigarettes. Johns coming up and down, you'd think I'd have a good hit sometime. But no, of course not - Jeder ist jung. I can't even find a decent man around here, let me tell you.

Ugh, ugh. I have to get my nails done and find a new dress for the evening. I have important clients to meet tonight, but that doesn't mean I'd be adverse to seeing someone during the day.

[ooc; drag queen Wesker is in your mirror city, looking fabulous, darling. ]

I never did like the sun very much. A stroll in the rain should prove a good venture, I am sure.

This place hasn't changed since my departure and the flavors are becoming more and more bland. Devils and Angels; good and evil. I see it day to day and the crusades of many are becoming more of an eye sore than anything else.

Tch. I thought a second round would be of interest, but it seems time does not make change here and it never will.

Business prospects are low, but Horizon should be back on the market in the coming weeks. I pray we shall still have a use for my pharmaceutical ring.

Things haven't much changed and it looks as if Horizon was properly shut down during my month away from this extravagant cage. I must remember to give a healthy tip to the employee who kept watch over my investment during my brief outing. Though, it looks as if it hasn't been touched since then. I suppose a jump start shall not hurt. There are new faces here and I suspect I can find someone in need of a pharmaceutical station.

As frivolous as it sounds and completely off the previous topic, I purchased an old gramophone I found in the window during last evening's stroll. It needed some work, but nothing a little oil couldn't fix. Ironically, I found some old German records to use with it, many recordings you just cannot find anymore. Outlawed and all that because of their context.

If I wasn't a scientist, I would have probably been a history buff. I am thankful I took the route that I did.

And here I thought I had escaped these bars. A pity I must say that I have returned, but I suppose I would be just as bored as I was back in my time. I pray things haven't changed too much since my departure.

IF YOU STILL HAVE WESKER FRIENDED AT polychromatic, PLEASE DEFRIEND. WESKER IS GOING TO HAVE ADVENTURES AT endtheme

Danke!

[Here, have a snake in your trees with an apple twisted in it's coils.]

An apple to the quell the thirst? An apple to stop the hunger? Come now, a bite won't hurt.

[ooc; OH YES. Wesker is the snake of the Adam and Eve tale. OH HO HO. I need to get shot.]

Paychecks will be provided this week. I apologize for the delay.

( Private to The Chapel. )

[ooc; Wesker's in a good mood, so anyone working for Horizon has gotten a bonus. Why? It's coming to the four year mark where he basically squandered away with everything Umbrella had left. Happy old man is happy. ]

Another curse and there is more light shed on the idiocy that pollutes this City. Bravo, bravo; you're warranting a trip to the drug store.

And for those fireworks a few days back? I would try learning the art of espionage before testing something you've only heard about. Really, it's quite showing of your character.

Soviet Army Day; formerly, Red Army Day. Every February 23rd, I remember the news broadcasting the Soviets marching with their next top-of-the-line tanks, their missiles and whatever other junk they thought it necessary to wave at the Americans. Such a proud country of idiots, but they were smart - they showed bravado in the face of the United States and scared them into believing they were actually some type of threat.

Of course, when the Soviet Union finally collapsed in 1991, we rejoiced. I have to thank Reagan for that. While I was never 100% skewed towards his believes, I am quite content knowing that the Soviets will never rise again thanks to the tenacity of the United States. Bravo, I must say. Capitalism does reign supreme.

Mn. Seems I have rambled on quite enough.

[Employee Filter; Visible to Investors]

Please do not approach him at this time. He is a former associate of mind and I would like to see examine his mental state before I release him as security. His name is Jack Krauser; he's an American soldier, if it must be known.

Level 3 will now be open to individuals with Level 1 or Level 2 security passes. Levels 4 and 5 are still off limits.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
A. Wesker

Miss Megumi, you have been chosen for LABORATORY ASSISTANT Level 1. Your card will be given to your shortly.

Mn. I still need an advertising agent.

[EMPLOYEE FILTER;]

Everyone should have been mailed an ID card. These ID cards have your access code on them, so please, do not lose them. If lost, we will have to extract a fine from you paycheck and we will have to scramble the computers codes. So, please, do not be so careless.

Also, Levels 3, 4 and 5 are off limits. Do not try to get down there, for you will be shot on sight. I do not jest, so do not test me.

Your paychecks will be handed out next Friday.

Thank you.
[/End Filter.]

Horizon is still accepting applications at this time. Please, should you be interested, refer back to here for the download.

For all investors - there will be a tour of Horizon's business locale all day on February 19th. Please feel free to take a time slot from the list below.

( List. )

And the hired list has been updated. The following have been chosen:

Mr. Shouichi
LABORATORY ASSISTANT LEVEL 1

( Private//Hackable with Skills. )

Ugh. Wonderful. How base this is to be interested in one of my investors.

Damned tabloids.

Hn. This is foolish.

Mr. Kaiba: May I have a word?

[ooc; SORRY FOR A DOUBLE POST, but I totally forgot it was Days of Our Lives curse day. So, yeah. Cursed Wesker is cursed. Or is he fully? Ho ho. Zing! Yes, yes he is fully cursed.]

Horizon's grand opening will be the 20th of this month. We specialize in pharmaceuticals, medical products and, of course, health care for the people. Our business is life, as it were. We hope to have a direct connection with the hospital here and we hope to bring about some new improvements to the city.

As of now, I have a special supplement I am currently synthesizing to help regenerative properties of the body. However, it is not complete yet, but consider it one of many projects to come from Horizon.

And I have looked over all applications to date. We will continue to leave applications open, but here is the list of individuals who have been hired.

( The List. )

( Private//Unhackable. )

I am looking for employees, as I have begun renovations on an old factory on the outskirts of the City. I require the following:

Laboratory assistants
Biochemists
Advertising Agents
Management Agents
Security
Investors

Pay will differ depending on the sector you shall be working for, but I am not a cheap individual. I will pay for the work that is done and, considering the very nature Horizon is built on, the pay will be enough to satisfy a high middle-class home. I have opened up a place on the business network for applicants, should you desire to fill out an application via the web.

With a shower of rain; we stopped in the colonnade,
And went on in sunlight, into the Hofgarten,
And drank coffee, and talked for an hour.
- T.S Elliot The Wasteland Part I. Burial of the Dead

Nothing today. Instead, I will play a bit of jazz for the rest of the day and philosophize the evening away. I have old notes to ponder over anyhow, while the rest of you bask in this glorious holiday mapped out by consumerism and capitalist pride. A pretty penny for a heart breaker, a drained account for the unrequited lover. Your stories all belong on the shelves of the trashy romance novel section.

[ooc; Yep, Wesker'll be in his apartment all day, playing jazz on a piano he purchased a few days ago. Magic piano. I don't know where it came from, but it's there now. He'll also be going over all notes, though yeah. He can be bothered because, as I said before, Wesker needs to get out of his shell. ]
