slovechnia ♔ hey little sister what have you done

♬ 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...

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.

[doubletake]

[Elena doesn't seem to mind. She's just trying to take the edge off.]

We've had worse, we've had better. [There's a graceful shrug of one of her shoulders.] We're all going home in one piece and they're not. Amanda is safe from Sarandis. To the plan has never seemed to be our style. There's always a turning point somewhere.

[bigbad]

Everyone's safe from Sarandis. That's a pretty big bloody victory as far as I'm concerned. [No matter how poorly it had gone in places.]

[doubletake]

It's enough for today, I'll agree.

[But it wasn't going to stop the potential upcoming apocalypse.

Still, she manages to smirk at him, attempting some dry humor.]

Maybe even enough for a whole week.

[bigbad]

He didn't cut into your head. Let me have this one.

[There are worse villains out there, sure, but none of them had hurt Spike quite as personally.]

[doubletake]

[Her expression warms at that and she nods.]

You're right. I'm sorry.

[She leans in to kiss him on the cheek.]

We should have a drink to celebrate then, don't you think? Or several.

[bigbad]

Already started. [He smirks a little holding up a tiny bottle.] I have to start bringing my own flasks. These are enormously unsatisfying.

[doubletake]

I feel like Archer's been doing that for years now. Otherwise, no one on these planes would ever get a buzz.

[Because he'd drink it all first, probably.]

[bigbad]

Speaking of tall, dark, and brainless, since when can he bloody firebend? And when did you learn to fly?

[doubletake]

I don't know. He showed it to me after the castle was attacked, but I don't know when he learned it. Why don't you ask him?

[bigbad]

Cause that would involve willingly engaging him in conversation, and honestly I'd rather experience his fire powers first hand. [A beat.] Which would probably happen anyway. You do remember he wants to kill me, right?

[doubletake]

You've probably talked to him more in the last two months than I have, Spike. You at least lived under the same roof. For all I knew you two kissed and made up.

[She doesn't...actually sound like she believes that, though.]

[bigbad]

It's a big bloody roof. I prefer keeping some distance between us. [He raises his eyebrow.] And you didn't answer my other question.

[doubletake]

[She raises one right back.]

What do you think I've been doing while I've been gone? Knitting?

[bigbad]

Flying wasn't really what I had my money on.

[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.

[doubletake]

[Elena blinks a time or two, as if she had mentally checked out or been lost in her thoughts, though she returns Myri's smile.

Still, there's a hesitance and a slight tension to her at the other woman's words.]

I'm relieved to see everyone making it back in one piece.

[witchwoman]

[Myri nods, but she's quiet, studying Elena.]

I know you're still planning on leaving. If that's what's bothering you, that is. Our victory here doesn't change the training that you know you need.

[doubletake]

You saw right thought me, did you?

[Her look is sheepish as she looks over.]

You're right, though. I will be nice to be there, if only for a little while. [Her eyebrows lift slightly.] Can I see Shayla before I leave?

[witchwoman]

Of course you can. You can spend as much time as you'd like with her. [It makes her a little sad still, but there's a bit of pride lingering there, too.]

I couldn't have asked for a better squire, you know. You're a remarkable woman, Elena.

[doubletake]

I'm sure I'll be surprised by how much she's grown in the time I've been gone.

[Elena's lips break into a smile even as she looks down at the ground briefly before her eyes lift back to the other woman's.]

I could not have asked for a better mentor and friend when I first arrived here. You made sure I had a home and hope when I might not have had any. You deserve so much more than what life has given you. [She reaches out and takes her hand.] No matter what happens, or where I am, I am thinking of you.

[witchwoman]

[Myri's hand shifts to grip Elena's a little tighter, taking a deep breath and letting it slowly.]

You'll be in my thoughts every moment until you return to us.

[doubletake]

I know. I just wish I could keep you from worrying about me.

[witchwoman]

I'm afraid that's just not likely. [She manages a little smile.] It's just my way.
