open ♔ fall/winter socialization log

[wynn]

  

WHO || Everyone! [ota]
WHAT || Shenanigans.  Sorry that it's covering like half a year.  Forgive me.  Let us never speak of it again.    
WHERE || Anywhere in the castle, surrounding environs, London, Andres, etc!
WHEN || Any time in Fall/Winter 2016
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 rescuing Gar in New York City, but before the planned Keijen Blade concert at the beginning of 2017.

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.]

[And Rose just. Stares.

And then.] No.

[See, this is fine, she's perfectly calm right now.

That might have been a Nat 20 Will Save, though.]

[bigbad]

[He shrugs his shoulders, looking away from her.]

Sorry, love. I already said I'd do it.

[littledhampir]

[More blinking, as Rose starts to shake her head.]

I don't care. Take it back.

[Because she still honestly believes at this point, she can alter reality, despite knowing full well, life never works that way.]

[bigbad]

Rose. [He turns towards her again, clasping her arm.] I have to do this.

[littledhampir]

[It starts to sink in now, that sickening realization that she could be talking to a brick wall for all it matters. He's not here, asking her permission or wanting her opinion. He's telling her.

But Rose has never been one to accept things the way they are.]

No, you don't. You don't have to do, anything! [Her voice going up a half octave as emotion starts to mingle through her words.]

[bigbad]

You'd do it if it was Dean.

[His voice is quiet but steady. He's not at all sure about this being a good idea. But it's the only idea he has, and if he doesn't do it, he'll always regret it. Even if it doesn't work. Even if it kills him.]

[littledhampir]

[For a moment, she's so stunned she can't even find the words, but when they do start coming out of her mouth...]

Are you really going to sit there and try and compare Dumage, to Dean?! Dean, has never - would never, go running off with the likes of Keijen for the - how many times is it now?!

[Leaning in, she lowers her voice, trying to will him to understand how completely insane this all is.]

I'd do it for you too, but you and Dean... you're not her.

[bigbad]

Do you think I don't bloody know that?

[He exhales loudly, leaning back against the seat.]

I know better than anyone else how much she's jerked me around, and for better or worse, this is the last time. But... she deserves to really bloody choose, rather than simply going along with what's easiest at any given time.

[Maybe she doesn't want that choice. But Spike's going to give it to her anyway. He has to know.]
