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.]

[She smirks a bit.]

I was mostly raised by my mom. I didn't meet my dad until I was sixteen and it was mostly to teach me magic. His familiar is a literal weasel - I think that says all you need to say about him. But he's my dad. I learned a long time ago that I can't change him.

[hacker]

Is it weird? You being a knight while your dad's ... your dad. [ She softens some, like this is personal curiosity, not professional. ] I mean, Wynn's knights stop people like that. Have you ever wondered if you'd have to stop him someday?

[bredinthebone]

Unless Wynn decides to make it his personal mission to track down every sideshow dirtbag out there? I think I'm pretty safe from having to take him down. He's a snake, but he's not evil. He helps Shadowkind more than he hurts them, and he steals from people who can afford it.

[She shrugs.]

Wynn tends to rely more on the "helping the helpless" angle. I'm more worried about getting a call from him saying he's in jail and I need to bail him out.

[hacker]

While keeping them in the dark.

[ She clarifies with a sigh. ]

I don't know, Malina. I don't know if this is me.

[bredinthebone]

Maybe it is. Maybe it isn't. That's why there's a squiring period.

[She leans forward on the counter a bit as she looks at her.]

Look, I know this isn't your usual gig. You're big on transparency and us, not so much. But you're here - might as well give it a shot, and if it's really not you, then you can walk away. No one will judge you for that.

[hacker]

[ She nods, accepting the logic of this. ]

It doesn't happen a lot, though, does it? People coming behind the curtain, then turning away.

[bredinthebone]

[She pauses before shaking her head.]

I'll be honest, what we do is a lot on anyone. But Wynn is pretty good at picking the people who can handle it, after doing it for so long. So no, it doesn't happen a lot, but it does happen. In the end, it's always your choice, and Wynn will respect that.

[hacker]

[ Something in Malina's words placates her, and Skye takes to giving her fidgeting a break. ]

Well. For better or worse, I'm in for the free trial.

[bredinthebone]

Good.

[She nods a bit, before taking another bite of her sandwich.]

I think you'll be surprised what you find.

[hacker]

Good surprised, I hope.

[ She says it with a little smile, hunching her shoulders. ]

[bredinthebone]

[She nods with a small smile in return.]

Definitely good surprised.

[hacker]

[ Nodding, she accepts. ]

I'll look around.

[bredinthebone]

Good.

[She nods as she grabs her plate and gets to her feet.]

I am going to go see if there's anything good on TV. Want to join me?

[hacker]

Love to, but I think I'm gonna take a pass and do the department tour instead. [ She holds up a finger. ] Sect. I'll get your lingo down, just wait.

[bredinthebone]

[She smiles at that before nodding.]

Sounds good. You have more questions you know where to find me.

[And with that she will head to the TV room to kick back and relax. /scene]
