slovechnia ♔ hey little sister what have you done

[postergirl]

♬ White Wedding - Billy Idol

WHO || Failboat, Dimitris Sarandis, Amanda Moulet, invited wedding guests, and more [closed]
WHAT || The Knights head to Slovechnia to interrupt Dimitris' wedding to Dumage's sister
WHERE || Flight from London to Slovechnia; Slovechnia
WHEN || Sometime in February
HOW || Actionspam or prose

The morning after, the Knights board a plane at their private airfield, and begin the couple hour flight to the country of Slovechnia.  Wynn has laid out a plan for them as such, leaving Sir Gar in charge of seeing it executed:  they are to send in a few Knights to infiltrate the wedding, while others steal an ambulance from a local hospital.  Using magic to make Sarandis think he's having a heart attack during the ceremony, they will intercept the outgoing call to the paramedics, and pose as them to take him out of there and straight to a private airfield to meet with Wynn.  They're all aware, however, of just how smoothly their plans tend to go where these villains are involved - especially if the Mind Master shows up.  

Either way, it promises to be an interesting day...

[ ♬ times like these (acoustic) - foo fighters

the flight back is only a couple of hours, and there are two planes going back to the castle:

plane a) wynn, hasmed, solace, tia
plane b) fred jr., kat, jack, gar, dumage

you're free to be on either plane, but unless specified, it is assumed your character is on plane b. ]

felicity braddock | ota | plane b

[allmydreams]

[Felicity is going to be less of a social butterfly than she was on the way there, and is mostly going to find her seat and take some time to wind down. Part of her need to chat before was more nerves than anything else, and right now, she's looking to relax and shake the post mission adrenaline rush.

Sarandis is dead, Dumage's sister isn't married and they succeeded in what they came there to do. Mostly.

She's still in her paramedic's uniform and she could probably use a drink, but for right now she's going to just relax and process what's happened in the last few hours. Not that she really did much of extreme consequence, but it's good to decompress all the same.]

elena ; open to plane b

[doubletake]

[Elena drifts around the plane from time to time, but she also spends a good deal of the flight in one of the window seats, quietly watching outside for extended periods of time as the clouds roll by below them.

Otherwise, she'll also have a couple drinks at some point during the flight, so she can be caught doing that too.]

[bigbad]

[Spike is trying very hard not to take all the booze but it's hard when you've got a vampire's metabolism. So yep. Taking quite a bit of the booze.]

Well, that went about as well as ever.

[witchwoman]

[Myri finds Elena at one point while she's parked in that window seat. She slides into the seat beside her and offers a gentle smile.]

It'll be good to be home.

steve | open to plane b

[recruited]

[ Luckily Steve changed his shirt the minute he got on board. Able to put something on to cover his torn open emt uniform. That's somewhere in a crumpled heap. His shield is resting on the ground under his seat and he's resting. Trying to at least. Getting shot never has been a huge deal to Steve, but he definitely doesn't like it. Though he feels fine now.

He's not sure if you classify that mission as a success due to all the hiccups, but it was handled. He could safely say that at least. Steve isn't a huge drinker, but still he goes for one at some point. If he's not there then he's back in his seat sketching once again. Busying himself until he can get back. ]

[allaboutme]

did you kick his ass yet???

dumage ♔ (ota).

[postergirl]

[ dumage sits near the back again, and doesn't seem particularly interested in being social either. maybe because the mission offered a couple others some glimpses into her personal life, something she's kept entirely under wraps for as long as they've known her. maybe it was the way things were left with her sister.

maybe it's something else. but she'll be back here, looking out the window, in case anyone opts to bother her. ]

[bigbad]

[Spike eventually comes and takes the other seat, handing her a tiny alcohol bottle.]

So, you planning on hanging around this time?

[doubletake]

[Elena comes bearing a gift, this time with vodka martinis, though sorry they'll be in rocks glasses because it's a plane. She does what she can.

She has a seat, not bothering to ask this time, and holds one out to her.]

I thought you might need one of these as badly as I do.

[allmydreams]

[Felicity doesn't know Dumage at all, only really having gotten an impression of her through the briefings and the missions. But since she is one of the few people Felicity didn't get a chance to talk to on the way out, she thought she might try on the way back.

And there's one thing she's curious about.]

Have you heard from your sister? Is she okay?

[witchwoman]

I'm sorry. [The words come without warning. No one had asked her to get Amanda out of there, of course, but Myri didn't really like the idea of leaving the young woman behind with any of those people.]

kat and/or fred ♔ (ota).

[shootfirst]

[ kat might have been pretty solemn during dimitris' actual death, but something seems to shift a bit during the flight back, and she cracks open a beer with fred, who actually gets her smiling by the time they're partway out.

it's almost like watching a weight lift off of her. ]

kat. fred can stay. whatevs.

[recruited]

[ Look you got shot a lot, Kat, so maybe Steve's a little bit worried. Even though he's pretty sure Vi did some mojo to get you going again. He's still going to check and maybe commend you for all that crazy ass magic stuff. Maybe you showed Steve that not every magic user is Loki. ]

You okay?

kat and fred wheee

[nothingsodivine]

[all the old people for the happy couple. des is just gonna slide behind their seat.]

So apparently, "reverse mugging" is not gonna catch on as an excuse to beat people up without retaliation. Who woulda thought?

Rose ][ OTA on Plane B

[littledhampir]

[Once Rose manages to get on the plane and find her seat, it doesn't look like there'll be a whole lot of moving around in her future. An exhaustion that's far more mental and emotional hanging over her as she settles in by a window.

She could use a drink or three and could definitely use a shower and a change of clothes but as all of those things require more effort than she can really manage. Or at least, being somewhere other than on a plane so, short of somebody shoving a drink or a change of clothes in her face? She'll be nesting over here. Looking out the window at the blue expanse of sky and occasionally playing on her phone.]

[recruited]

[ When Steve comes over he does have drinks because he wouldn't be a good friend if he didn't bring the liquor. He takes a seat near her and holds out the drink to wiggle it before her. ] I've seen that look before. [ He pauses. ] Not on you, but on my men when I was in the war.

[bigbad]

[Spike drops a package of shitty airplane donuts in front of her. And also a few tiny airplane booze bottles. It's probably not enough booze. It really never is.]

I hear murder can take it out of a girl.

[nothingsodivine]

[And lo and behind, Des just plops down next to her with a few tiny bottles of plane booze in his hands. His boots don't have shoelaces, but never mind that. It's towards the end of the flight and he's lost the amount of fucks required to actually try and lace them back up after his cat's cradle misadventures earlier.]

That was a fine display of stabbing, lady. [he raises one of his bottles in a mock toast.]

gar and/or jack ♔ (ota).

[rationalizes]

[ so, while the mission goals might have been met, and sarandis finally laid to rest, it wasn't the most gracefully executed of missions, to say the very least. and it's clear that gar, as mission leader, isn't inclined to forget it. she also doesn't look eager to go into too many details about it to jack quite yet, so she spends most of the flight resting her head against his shoulder, looking distant and staying quiet. he doesn't push, just takes her hand and brushes his thumb reassuringly across the back of her own. ]

Des | plane b | OTA

[nothingsodivine]

[des seems to have a lot more restless energy than he had on the flight to their destination, and seems to be dealing with it by playing an elaborate game of cat's cradle with his shoestrings. Go figure. He's weird. But surprisingly good at it (dex 23)

Sometimes he'll wander to go and chat with a couple people but for the most part he's just over here in his aisle seat. Being a cat.

vi | plane a

[graveflowers]

[ watching everyone drift to one plane, vi hesitates before stepping on to the second. she'd like to talk to hasmed and solace, but not right now and that isn't the reason she steps onto the second plane. the team doesn't need to plan anything right now, she doesn't need to be there, she can meet up with them later. she wants time to decompress.

curled up in a window seat, with an ice pack against her shoulder where the bullets burned into her, she keeps to herself. though she does at least reach out for tia once as she passes. ]

buffy ( plane A ) / ota

[slay]

[ Buffy sticks with Vi when they board the plane, though she doesn't spend every moment of the two-hour flight joined to her hip, instead taking up a book for the majority of it and tucking herself against a window to pull herself out of her own mind for a while. She's spent enough time there.

She does, though, at one point, head up a few rows to rest a hand on the seat back where Wynn sits, quiet until she's sure she isn't interrupting anything between him and the present section heads. ] Got a sec?

astrid | ota | plane b

[pathology]

[sooo this didn't exactly go as planned, but astrid feels like her part went perfectly and dimitris is dead now so??? whatever??? and there's that hottie who looks like jason statham. everything's coming up astrid, tbh. that is why she's content to just curl up in a seat and dick around on her phone.

that bone saw is still sticking out of her bag lmfao.]

spike | ota | plane b

[bigbad]

[Spike pretty quickly settles into a darkened corner with a few handfuls of tiny plane liquor thingies. He really thought this would feel better, seeing his enemy down. But Dumage is right. It's far from over, and honestly he's pretty sure the other bad guys are going to prove to be even worse than Sarandis. After all, Mark took him down. How tough could he have been?

He really wishes he had enough alcohol to actually get drunk.]
