[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of these few months. Because not everyone is into parties, ok.

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

Does anyone actually answer the phone here normally?

[Des is coming back from... wherever the hell he goes when he's not here JUST IN TIME TO CATCH THAT. He also doesn't speak Japanese, but he assumes that was not a Japanese person on the other end of the line.]

[oh it's this fuck.] I think it's part of the job description not to, actually. Did you need something?

[He flashes his vistor's pass.] Just making sure no one tackles me on the way back in. With the way I'm coming and going, you can never be too sure.

I wasn't aware people who aren't knights or squires got to come and go as they please. Seems like it'd be a security hazard.

Other people don't. I'm special.

[That and he's been hovering this castle for a LONG-ASS TIME.]

Maybe your visitor's pass should be star-shaped, then.

In a perfect world, I wouldn't need one. [Maybe you could just join the knights, Des. Oh wait. Apparently, that suggestion triggers you or something...]

Because you'd get to be a knight, or because you're that eager to get away?

Kinda the latter. We're in a recession. Apparently, getting my own hotel is contributing to poverty. [He doesn't know. He just did it to make Vi happy, because she doesn't feel feelings anymore.]

That doesn't even make any sense.

You can tell that to Violet, but do you really wanna make her cry?

[j/k like Vi would really cry over that, even if she wasn't living pivotal lines from Zydrate Anatomy. DROW VOODOO COMES IN A SKETCHY-SKETCH NECKLACE.

(A SKETCHY SKETCHY NECKLACE???)]

Oh! I know Violet. She's sweet.

I think everyone knows her. She's like a hummingbird.

[shrug.] She busted me out of desk duty to chauffeur her. That gets an A in my book.

Sounds like Violet.

[A beat] Was she... feeling okay?

[That sounded so awkward. Having feelings is itchy.]

Are you part of her suicide watch?

Well, if you wanna put it bluntly.

I'm a blunt person, I always want to put it bluntly. [s h r u g.] She seemed okay.

Good. [AWKWARCHANS.] It's coming down to the wire on getting her better. It'd be just our luck if she did something insane.

What do you mean, down to the wire on getting her better? You are aware that's really ... not how mental illness works, aren't you? [he has experience. he could tell you a thing.]

She's not depressed, genius.

[Well... She is. He makes a face.] It's complicated.

[eyebrow quirk.] Is it? [gather info 29. YOU WANT TO TELL HIM THE THING.]

It's got something to do with the mission we've been on. It got into her head and now she's... slipping. [APPARENTLY HE DOES. GDI Alex. Apparently, he's just stressed out about this to want to ~reach out~] Well, that and the whole... Aasimar winter doldrums crap she's got going on.

[between this and hearing about how she went on mr. toad's wild ride, now he just thinks she has ... ptsd instead of depression. so that's a thing.] I've never heard of an Aasimar having winter doldrums. Not that I spend a lot of time hanging out with Aasimar, but still.

I do. [He sticks his tongue in his cheek.] I think it's specific to her, though. She came out of the Veil. Things're backwards over there.
