[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of November and December.

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.]

Okay. One? There are very few people I hate more than that Highland fuck. [and boy does it sound like he means it too.] And two? It doesn't matter what I feel. It matters how Blade feels and Blade and Rafael aren't best buddies.

[slay]

His list of enemies is a lot longer than his list of friends. That doesn't explain jumping to one conclusion.

[nothingsodivine]

I also felt Sarandis might be feeling a little like retaliation, and we all know that his friends are Blade's backers. [he shrugs.] It made more sense than the other at the time.

[slay]

Fair enough. [ She nods. ] I wish we knew where he was. I don't like that he's still out there. It's like ... I can feel him lurking around dark corners, you know?

[nothingsodivine]

[Des's shoulders tense.] To be honest, I don't even know if he's dead or alive.

[slay]

How do you figure he could be dead? He got away, Des. With the Mind Master. As bodyguards go ...

[nothingsodivine]

[long awkward pause.]

Oh right. You meant Sarandis. As far as boogeymen go, significantly less scary than Anderson.

[they are the BEST at this game.]

[slay]

Different scary isn't less.

[ He's manipulative. Powerful in a different way. ]

[nothingsodivine]

He's a coward. And he's lost his biggest edge. All he is now is a jackass with powerful friends and a terrible mustache.

[he scowls.] Who definitely needs his face pounded into the pavement a few times as of yesterday.

[slay]

For now. But his powerful friends might just make him more powerful friends and put him in a position to become a very big pain in our butts again.

[nothingsodivine]

Oh, probably. But we'll get him. We saved an entire island. I'm thinking we're better at this than we thought.

[slay]

They'll be the judge of that. If we did our jobs that well, making Mark into a king will be their decision.

[nothingsodivine]

I doubt anyone is starting Bring Back Dimitris petitions, so I'll call that a win, anyway.

[slay]

You didn't dance with his skeezy snakeblooded supporter Slinn. [ A beat. ] ... I wonder if his parents spotted the joke there. [ So much alliteration of exactly the variety he'd pronounce funny. ]

[nothingsodivine]

Snakebloods really aren't good at taking jokes.

[HAHAHA. never forget Des's horrible snakeblood infiltration life.]

[slay]

[ Shrug. ]

You'd know better than me. [ Anyway, divergence aside. ] Have you talked to Wynn about the Grammy's? We've gotta get there. Be nice if you and I could find a way to warn Rafael beforehand: he and Burt will probably show too.

[nothingsodivine]

It ain't really my place to tell Wynn what he should or shouldn't be doing. I figured I'd leave that to you. [since buffy is very good at telling wynn his business, i guess.] I figure if Alainn falls through with getting us concert tickets, at least we have an excuse to be hovering a big awards show with the bad guys in attendance. Two birds with one stone.

[slay]

On the record? In polite circles, this is called stalking. But I'll talk to Wynn about it.

[nothingsodivine]

It's not stalking if he's still our friend. It's "protective hovering."

[yes, des.

yes....] Also he's a former assassin, so he doesn't get to judge us for it.

[slay]

I'm not sure you understand the concept behind former, but I'll let it slide on extenuating circumstances.

[ Because that totally gives him the right to judge ok if he's not doing it anymore. ]

[nothingsodivine]

[the extenuating circumstance being that he still kills people and likes it when bad things happen.....]

I'm still convinced he'll be thrilled to see you. Burt, less so, but we found his real brother... which, incidentally, might be something we can use to discredit Crombe.

[slay]

It might not be bad to bring the real Chad with us to the Grammy's, if he's up for it.

[nothingsodivine]

That's a big "if." I'm pretty sure he wants to crawl in a hole and hide./

[slay]

Pretty sure he wants to stop that guy from stealing his identity even more.

[nothingsodivine]

[i got a blank stare, baby.]

Buffy, the guy would barely leave his cell unless I dragged him. He's got all the hallmarks of a guy worried if he sticks his head out, somebody will cut it off. I think it's a great plan and Lord knows it'd probably buy us more time to stall this bullshit world domination plan, but that little bastard is not gonna go willingly.
