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...

[She nods in agreement.]

Unfortunately, he wasn't exactly wrong about people stealing his work. Which ... God only knows why they did in the first place. It was incredibly creepy.

[nothingsodivine]

Creepy sells. Look at Dimitris. He ran a country with that fucking mustache.

i think this is right, i can edit if not

[allmydreams]

[She laughs.]

Good point. Hitler too. Never underestimate the power of bad facial hair.

[A beat.]

Or bad ... any hair, if the GOP race keeps going like it's going.

[nothingsodivine]

[Des works out a tangle in his shoelace.] Oh yeah? I haven't really been following.

[allmydreams]

Two words: Donald Trump.

[She shakes her head.]

So glad I moved to England.

[nothingsodivine]

No shit? [he seems utterly surprised by that.] I must've missed that somehow, and I don't live here. Probably just protecting myself from the folly of man, I guess.

[allmydreams]

[She laughs.]

Well, everyone thought it was a joke for a while, but now he's starting to look like an actual candidate which is more than a little mildly terrifying.

[nothingsodivine]

The world's falling to pieces. [he scoffs, trying to make light of it, but it's... honestly true.]

[allmydreams]

[She gives a small shrug.]

The world is what it is. People make their choices and have to deal with the consequences.

[nothingsodivine]

Also there's a nightmare god literally trying to bring down his very special version of the apocalypse. That's not really helping anything.

[Donald Trump may or may not be Malaka'a. Or at least a devoted follower. The real point is, for once, Des is not the one invoking ancient wisdom today.]

[allmydreams]

[Felicity nods in agreement, before tipping her head to the side.]

Personally, I feel like we stand a better chance of stopping the nightmare god. You really can't punch a person's ignorance in the face.

[There's a beat as she moves into the next position.]

Well, you could punch them in the face, but that wouldn't really help.

[nothingsodivine]

[Des disentangles his fingers from the string, a thoughtful, literal tongue-in-cheek expression on his face.] That you can't. Sometimes I wonder if it'd shake something loose, but really it just makes you the bad guy.

Probably feels good for about ten seconds, though.

[allmydreams]

Oh, I think so. And then it would hurt because me trying to throw a punch is a hilarious endeavor.

[nothingsodivine]

Everybody's got their talents and their shortcomings. The hard part is admitting them. Some of us here on this team have a harder time than most.

[allmydreams]

[Yeeeeeeeah, she's noticed. But she's not going to state that out loud.]

Maybe. But confidence isn't a bad thing in the field either. I'd take overconfident over constantly second guessing yourself.

[nothingsodivine]

Not always. But from experience? Overconfidence gets a hell of a lot more people hurt. That was a lesson I learned the hard way... and why nobody sees me deciding to go off book on Marian's orders anymore.

[allmydreams]

[She nods slowly.]

I guess some habits are hard to break. Not that I'm one to not follow orders, but I also know what it's like to be mainly working alone and looking out for yourself. Having a purpose helps sort through it, though. At least for me.

[nothingsodivine]

[Des chuckles dryly and finally frees his hands from the shoelace.] Not just for you.

[he glances up, noticing Rose, and sucks in a breath.] Just remembered I got someone I need to talk to.

[allmydreams]

[Felicity nods in agreement.]

Right, of course. I'll get out of your way. Thanks for helping me unrust, though.

[And with that, she shifts to her feet and heads back to her original seat. /scene]
