[ 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 who are not currently squired in may also post, as their characters are living in the castle awaiting their ceremonies.  This takes place after the Knights have returned from Dimitris' wedding. 

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.]

[lichslap]

Planning to be an observing sort of knight?

[But he offers her a grim smile all the same, a show of solidarity.]

I don't remember much of anything, either-- from before.

[shadowmind]

Better than the kind that runs in and gets mauled.

[ seriously, though, she just wants to minimize the chances of getting laughed at. ]

I think a lot of people seem to lose things, but I've never met anyone who's lost as much as I have.

[lichslap]

Fair enough. I know I've never regretted erring on the side of caution.

[A lack of caution, maybe, but he could certainly stand to exercise more of it.]

That's quite a claim. Perhaps it would be easier to ask you what you haven't lost.

[shadowmind]

[ ugh. she wrinkles her nose. ]

My name. A tent. A couple of vague people. No names or faces. Giant ants. [ she still swears they were giant ants but who knows. ] Nothing else.

[ yep. nothing else. nothing at all (bluff 13). ]

[lichslap]

Giant ants.

[From the list she offers, that definitely stands out. He squints for a moment, curious (Sense Motive 14), but follows up with a shrug.]

Sounds rough. I don't remember much in the way of names or faces, either. Just my own, and a whole lot of magic.

[shadowmind]

[ she gives him a look. don't start that with her. ]

You got pulled through a Veil like I did, but you're stuck on giant ants?

[ don't laugh okay. just don't. ]

That's all? Hmm maybe you and I aren't that far apart.

[ QUIETLY not mentioning magic or psionics nooope. ]

[lichslap]

Just trying to imagine them, that's all. I certainly don't doubt they're out there.

[He remembers a few monstrosities of his own, but what a thing to remember.]

But yes-- that's all. Anything else turns up rather vague.

[shadowmind]

[ yeah okay that's... that's fair. ]

Vague feelings for memories, but no actual faces, names, or anything that really matters? [ huh. ] Congratulations. I think you might be even with me.

[ they should form a club. the failing to remember club. ]

We could make up everything and no one would know.

[lichslap]

[It wouldn't change the fact that they don't know the truth of things either, but:]

It could be fun, couldn't it? Making it up as we go? Inventing the sort of lives we might like to have-- or very tragic backstories if we're looking for sympathy.

[shadowmind]

[ she snorts. ]

Or the kind that tells everyone not to mess with us and just leave us alone. Yeah. I like all of these options.

[ not that's too likely to get elaborate rather than just evade the questions, but hey. it's the thought, right? ]

[lichslap]

Well, yes, we could do that, too.

[A little too solitary-sounding for him, but to each their own.]

You're really not all that interested in getting to know your fellow Knights, are you?

[shadowmind]

[ she shrugs. he may as well have hit it perfectly, but she's not going to say that. ]

I'm talking to them, aren't I? I'm just taking my time.

[ (bluff 15) he's actually completely right. ]

[lichslap]

[Nope. He's not buying it (Sense Motive 17).]

I'm not sure it counts if it wasn't your idea. I practically had to corner you.

[shadowmind]

[ fine. she scowls. ]

I don't have good people memories. You try getting dropped into Italy. Doesn't mean I don't want to help.

[lichslap]

Can't be much worse than getting dropped into London. That wasn't a picnic, either.

[He's just saying.]

[shadowmind]

Pretty sure the people in London don't want you dead just for existing.

[ she should... probably be letting this one go. but italy helped suck the life out of her. ]

[lichslap]

Well, hard to say, isn't it? Bit of a sweeping generalization.
