CHAPTER FINALE ♔ darling can't you see it's now or never



Astronaut (A Short History of Nearly Nothing) - Amanda Palmer ft. Zoe Keating

WHO || Rafael Giovanni, Eterna Jade, Burt Becksworth, Isabella Alessandro, Finnick Odair, Myrilandel de Tanos, Buffy Summers, Spike, Elena Gilbert, Dawn Summers, Desmond Descant, Jeanne Gar, Kat Samcelot, Mark Sandazhard, Violet Fiore, Sterling Archer
WHAT || CHAPTER ONE FINALE: Rafael Giovanni & Finnick's televised international concert debut
WHERE || A music hall in Chicago, IL
WHEN || July 3rd, 2013 [ forward dated]
HOW || Actionspam


The hour is finally upon our heroes, to learn whether their crazy plan to invest in making Finnick and Rafael international superstars under Burt Becksworth's management will pay off, and keep control of NOVA Records out of the hands of Chad Becksworth and his sinister compatriots. Now, as the Knights finish taking their seats in the balconies directly overlooking the stage, the concert goes live, broadcasting around the world, to where even other members of the Knighthood in London can gather to watch.

The camera pans across the endless sea of gathered, curious fans, who shake their arms wildly for their two seconds of fame, and then zooms in on a blonde figure on one corner of the stage, where she stands ready with a microphone: Buffy Summers.

[ the action of this post will be continually propelled by the interspersed musical numbers performed by finnick and rafael. each musical number will be up for a short amount of ooc time, in which players are free to create mini-thread responses directly to that song comment. these can be for internal reflection, to make commentary to the neighbors seated in their rows, for backstage convos for those involved in the program, or for 'host' commentary between some songs by archer and kat. threads that result from these responses should be kept short and sweet, as each song is only 3 to 5 minutes long, which doesn't leave a lot of time for in depth conversations. ideally, by the time the next 'number' is posted (as a direct response to the last musical number comment), your response threads from the previous number should be considered over and done with, and you can continue anything going on in them as a new mini-thread under the most recently posted song. in order to keep track of when things are rolling on to the next song, I highly encourage everyone to please track this entire post. ]

[It takes Des a moment to find words again- just enough time for Rafael to switch songs, but he's not paying attention to the concert anymore. It's just hit him that he's been with this group for a long time now. Longer than he's been with anyone really, aside from incidental encounters. There's a lot to be done. He plans on sweettalking Wynn into letting him have a few minutes alone with the Talisman to see what comes of it and then... and then what?

What the hell does he do after this? He's never had a group of people he'd actually regret never seeing again before.]


Maybe I did.

[ you only live twice - coldplay

when he finally speaks up, she's looking up at him with a thoughtful, fond expression, and the smallest smile.

her hand very gently squeezes his arm, and she leans a little closer so she can say quietly and still be heard: ]


It's not a bad look on you.

[He smiles sheepishly, but doesn't duck his head. Just keeps looking at her.]

I could probably get used to it.

[ the smile drops into a slightly more serious stare as her eyes search his for a long moment. she looks as if she's trying to figure out if he's being flippant or not, and seems to register that he's actually turning all this stuff over in his mind for real... which appears to be a pleasant surprise to her. ]

... Better late than never.

Yeah, well. You know what they say about old dogs and new tricks.

Pretty sure I saw that myth busted on TV.

Case in point. [Smuggest toothy grin... as Rafael continues to sing about Jade.]

[ she gives him an answering smile as she finally looks back at the stage, having missed... most of rafael's lyrics all about her. ]

I think you've still got a few tricks left in you.
