WHO || Everyone! [ota]
WHAT || Shenanigans. THIS IS MOSTLY AN OVERFLOW POST for the last social log whoops
WHERE || Anywhere in the castle, surrounding environs, London, Andres, etc!
WHEN || Any time in May/June
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 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.]

[he quirks an eyebrow like wtf] Well. That's not one I've heard before. Anyway, welcome. I'm Alex. You hurt or something or are you gunning for Light?

The latter. I'm a nurse.

[Which he happens to be very good at.]

You need help with something?

I need a prescription filled. [but he says it as an afterthought bc he's busy thinking about] Y'know, that's ... do you know someone named Amy?

[He doesn't know if he should be filling prescriptions, so he's grateful for the subject change.]

Amy Pond?

[he was not actually expecting that to work. huh.] Think so. Red hair?

[He nods in agreement.]

Yep. That's my ....

[He cuts himself off before he says the wrong word and course corrects.]

... best friend.

Uh-huh. She told me some about you.

She did?

[And given that he's seen Amy at this point he can't help but ask whether it was actual information or misinformation that was spread here.]

What did she tell you, exactly?

[blandly] Not much, just that you're her gay nurse friend.

[S I G H.]

Yeah ... unfortunately the Veil didn't let her get that quite right.

Which part?

Mostly the gay part. And the part where she's engaged to Jeff.

[he is the face of disappointment.] Aw man, I was hoping it was — wait, who's Jeff?

[i'm pretty sure she told him about jeff he just willfully forgot.]

A friend. The guy she thinks she's engaged to.

[He shrugs.]

Sorry to disappoint?

Weird. I guess the Veil really fucks shit up sometimes.

[He shrugs.]

It's not like it's the first time she's thought that. It just took away her finding out otherwise, I suppose.

How do you get confused over who you're engaged to?

[He gives a small shrug.]

The Veil? I'm not really sure how it all works.

Yeah, man, me either. They've got people who like study that shit professionally, like scientists and shit, and still nobody really knows how it works.

[He makes a face.]

Well, there's a lot I remember that she doesn't.

Yeah? Like what?

[Rory pauses for a moment, because he isn't sure Alex is ready for how heavy that answer is, but he rubs the back of his neck.]

Our wedding for one. About ... nine years of marriage after that, give or take.

You tried talking to her about it?

A bit. Didn't want to overwhelm her though. The fact that my sexual orientation was radically changing seemed to be shock enough.

Makes sense. She seemed pretty set on the whole gay thing.
