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. ]

[Every note of the piano is damning Rafael in Des's eyes. He actually supported him. He told him he could get her back. Months of evading and ignoring for his own sake and now he's sitting here, after hearing everything from her perspective, and wondering how on earth he really thinks he deserves her- this desperate man clinging to an illusion.

She doesn't need to remember. He doesn't know what she needs, but he's doing a hell of a lot better at figuring it out than a guy onstage singing meaningless words right at her.

He's not heartless. When he makes his move, it's after Rafael has diverted his attention from the balcony and that's when he releases her hand and pulls her into a kiss.

It's not as chaste and awkward as the first one was.]

[ and jade melts readily into the kiss, oblivious, while it lasts, to the strains of heartache still filling the air. there's an eagerness born of her months of patience with him on the subject that drives her to such an enthusiastic response, her hand sliding up his arm to grip him tightly, gently signalling that she wants this stolen moment to linger more than it probably should, given the circumstances. the momentum of her kiss, however, is a far less subtle plea for the same, since she... sure crit failed her will save to reign things in. ]

[Des doesn't yank away from the fury of the moment, but once it occurs to him that this is neither the time nor the place for this, he pulls away gently, hands clasped around her head and remaining that way.]

I guess I do still have some tricks in me. [He's a bit breathless. Give him a tic.]

her eyes stay closed for a moment, but a smile curves up her lip slightly as she tries to catch her own breath. ]


... I hope that's not the last of them.
