open ♔ socialization log (april through july)

[wynn]

WHO || Everyone! [ota]
WHAT || Shenanigans.
WHERE || Anywhere in the castle, surrounding environs, London, Andres, etc!
WHEN || Any time in April/May/June/July
HOW || Actionspam

[ 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.   Characters participating in the following missions are asked to wait until their missions have concluded before tagging into things that take place chronologically after said missions:  Dead of Winter, Curse of the Homo Magi, Ravenloft, Shadow Bermuda, and City of Blood  If you aren't certain if that applies to you, please ask!  Characters who are not currently squired in may also post, as their characters are living in the castle awaiting their ceremonies.

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.]

[keptbiting]

Well, last time I walked into the men's loo it was on purpose, so yeah. It gets easier.

[keptbiting]

[ her nose wrinkles reflexively. ] Lowlands. [ she probably doesn't even speak gaelic, just that rubbish scots. CAN YOU TELL WHERE AMY'S FROM??? it ain't the lowlands.

she'll get to the other bits, but she's too busy being prejudice. ]

[keptbiting]

[ humorously indignant: ] It was crap! Handed to 'em on a platter! And they just wasted it.

[keptbiting]

She shrugs, either unconcerned with her choices or just confused. "I dunno, just always wanted to go to Rio for some reason. Rio and Mount Vesuvius. Now when you say fire, do you mean... properly set on fire?"

[icouldbe_bess]

Oh, there's cats here too. This many wizards and mages and whatever. Predictably, cats happened.

[withasouvenir]

Thea Queen. [ lmao her strength was 20 total so she's just like LA DE DA SECRETLY A BAD ASS. ]

[druidisms]

It sucked, but she's infinitely better now. [ you know, being dead. ]

[druidisms]

"You're the best." Truth, tbh. Malina is definitely the best. The best best friend for Gus specifically.

[graveflowers]

Oh, yeah, of course, I just don't want to bother anyone. They're all busy and stuff.

[graveflowers]

Not foolish, no hope is foolish. Evil's always going to be out there, irritatingly, but we just have to keep fighting. Which isn't fair, but... it is what it is.

[recruited]

So this place is a lot like my last job then huh?

[ Steve's been shot a lot. More times than he cares to think about. ]

Anywhere good?

[ War wounds are badge of honor. Or something. ]

[sakurasmile]

Ah right, you dirty highlander. None of that now. [she sticks her tongue out, clearly more amused than anything.] We're both hangin' around the English dogs, after all.

[monticora]

"That sucks. It'll heal. They always do."

His reactions are probably not what she expected. Alec isn't one to give sympathy. Certainly for not getting shot. He gets shot all the time. Though usually he demands some sort of attention from Max. Which kind of makes him a hypocrite. Whatever. He never said he was perfect. That's Max's gig.

"Who says I'll get called up? Maybe I'm just here to make this place look better. Class it up."

[beatupgrass]

[well if her goal was to hit him in the pride- because regardless of whether anyone is friends with quitters, he definitely isn't one and takes offense to the idea that he might be acting like one, so that alone makes him straighten up.

...And then cant his head at her, because at least her ridiculous question distracts him from his self-hate.] Ain't that one of the planets in this system that ain't got nothin' on it?

[beatupgrass]

I won't have to remind you. You'll figure it out if you ever see me in a real fight. [SO COCKY. The only thing worse than a raccoon who is a crack shot is a cocky raccoon who is a crack shot.] Name's Rocket.

[nothingsodivine]

Magician's assistant and thief. This is why people used to tell me not fitting the criteria for knight was no excuse for not joining this dog and pony show.

[icouldbe_bess]

Not actually a thief, I return the things I take with no harm done.

[nothingsodivine]

[eyebrow.] So what's the point of taking them?

[icouldbe_bess]

To point out flaws in security features, mostly. And because I can. Have you ever held "The Scream"? I have. I've touched a van Gogh, three of them.

[nothingsodivine]

[DOES HE LOOK CULTURED, ALICE???]

Van Gogh's the one with the star painting, right?

[you are the worst ex-immortal ever, Descant.]

[icouldbe_bess]

[ s t a r e s. ]

Seriously?

[nothingsodivine]

I'm not an art guy.

[yes. seriously.]

[icouldbe_bess]

It's va-- [ she holds up a hand, looking away like no you disgust me, you're a horrible human being, get out. DEEP BREATHS, ALICE. ] Criminals know more art than you.

[doubletake]

Yeah, me too.

[She reaches out, gives her shoulder a gentle squeeze.]

Just remember that it's a good thing, alright? It'll work itself out.

[doubletake]

[She chuckles.]

I try to avoid fights in general, but I'll make sure to remember that.
