[ 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.

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.]

You don't trust me? [ she lets go of his hand once their in the hall. ]

[ambitionist]

It's not that I don't trust you. I'm just skeptical.

[bittersweeter]

Hmm. There was this place on 2nd, Shanghai Pavillion? They had the best winter melon soup. Until I got here. And had better.

[ambitionist]

I don't think I've ever been. [i.e. his knowledge local check was too low :'( ] But I don't need to tell you that 2nd isn't Chinatown.

[bittersweeter]

No shit, but it was only a few blocks away from my house so I could walk there.

[ambitionist]

You promised me best Chinese food outside of Chinatown, not outside of the place near your house.

[bittersweeter]

Uh-huh, and I said this place has better winter melon soup, the two statements weren't the same comparison.

[ambitionist]

Whatever, just don't set me up for disappointment. [WOW THEY'RE AT THE DESK. such a walk. amaze.]

[theshameofcain]

[Bambi has the sign out sheet and a sheet of paper and is currently practicing copying every signature on it... and fucking killing it (forgery 25). She's very absorbed in her work.]

God, this fucker has the loopiest handwriting I've ever seen.

[bittersweeter]

[ lila glances down at the sheet, elbows on the desk (spot 18). ] Thanks. We need a car. [ IS IT EVEN HERS??? we just don't know. it's not. hers is loopy, but far from the loopiest. (bluff 43) ]

[ambitionist]

[well it sure as fuck isn't alex's; his handwriting is sharp and angular. he'll just stand there and be imposing while bambi attends to their needs.]

[theshameofcain]

Uh. Whatever you say. [She picks up the paper and squints at it.] Faith.. O- is that even a 'k'?

[Yeah, whatever. You're Faith now, apparently, Lila. Good job. She hands the paper over and grabs some keys.] You want James Bond, the demon from Good Omens, or I'm Too Pimp For a Pop Culture Reference?

[bittersweeter]

Uh, how about the black Mercedes. It's the Yankees key chain. [ not that lila has claimed it or anything... ]

[theshameofcain]

Oh yeeeah. I keep thinking some disgruntled Red Sox fan is gonna crash that thing into the river out of spite. [She pulls them off the hook and hands them over.] You crazy kids have fun. Make sure to hose off the upholstery after.

[bittersweeter]

I already put ammonia in the trunk for cleaning up the blood. [ she passes the keys back to alex before making a gimme motion for the sign out sheet. ]

[ambitionist]

[WHAT EVEN GURL. no ... no, he's not surprised. he'll just ... take the keys.]

[theshameofcain]

You can also use it to make IEDs if you get in a bind. [Look at her- not even deterred as she hands over the sheet.] Basic knowledge of guerrilla warfare is really useful in the field. Magic's hokey.

[bittersweeter]

I prefer orange bombs, but. [ shrug. whatever floats your boat, boo. she signs her delicate -- and loopy -- signature. and drops the pen. ] Watch out. One of those pens is covered in blood. You might catch something. [ added bonus to wearing gloves, yo. ]

[ambitionist]

Did you stab someone with a pen and then ... not throw it out? [wis 13. that's the offensive part to him. not throwing it out. the stabbing itself??? w/e who cares. BUT HYGIENE.]

[bittersweeter]

I wasn't the one working the desk, that's his job.

[theshameofcain]

Oh my God. Who got stabbed? [Yeah, she's fascinated... and also deeply concerned. She eyes the cup of pens suspiciously. what if she was chewing on the blood pen. oh god.]

[bittersweeter]

I don't know, I didn't bother to ask his name.

[ambitionist]

Did you stab him for a reason, or ...?

[bittersweeter]

[ watch her actually think about it. ] I think he implied I wouldn't. [ and then she did. THAT'S ALL IT TAKES. ]

[theshameofcain]

So you just stab people because you can?

[She starts rifling through the pen cup, frowning.] I'd do it, but I wanna be in the Hoard some day and I don't think anyone in the Hoard has ever stabbed a man with a pen.
