[ 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.]

I can wait. I'm patient.

[bittersweeter]

Okay. [ and here is the tea! and her soup. chinese kelly bailey says the rest is on the way. ] Want some? [ she means the tea, indicated by the fact that's she's pouring herself a cup. ]

[ambitionist]

Sure. I love tea. [waiting for her to serve him tbh. she shouldn't have asked while holding the teapot or w/e if that's not what she intended.]

[bittersweeter]

Really? You don't strike me as a tea person. [ lila... sylar said the exact same thing to you. don't judge. she pours him a cup as well, because yeah, that is why she asked. ]

[ambitionist]

Well, I am. [he doesn't feel like explaining "lived in japan and had a british not-girlfriend" to her, ok.] One of my favorite things is mint chai.

[bittersweeter]

Spicy and sweet. [ she makes a considering face. it sounded interesting. ] How did you get into tea? [ not gonna let it go. ]

[ambitionist]

I'm Russian? I lived in Japan? Pick one. It's tea, not crystal meth.

[bittersweeter]

Ah! Russian was the excuse I used too, Sylar didn't buy it.

[ambitionist]

Why not? It's a good fucking reason.

[bittersweeter]

I guess Russia doesn't have the same cultural significance with tea as, as England. Or Boston.

[ambitionist]

[hold on, he's getting out his phone. to prove a point. he's being that guy.] Still. "Russian tea culture" has its own Wiki page. It's a thing.

[bittersweeter]

Yeah, sweetie, I'm aware. My boyfriend, however, is not Russian. He wasn't born with this knowledge.

[ambitionist]

That sounds like his problem.

[bittersweeter]

Well, he could be Russian. He's got that dark look. But he doesn't know. I told him he could be an honorary Russian, you know, since I'm only Russian American and I know I'm not first generation. My family's been around for a while.

[ambitionist]

[he thinks back on sylar and his appearance, then shrugs.] Yeah, I guess he could be. Honorary Russian, does that mean he's going to take your name when you get married?

[bittersweeter]

[ snort. ] His last name is easier to spell.

[ambitionist]

What is it?

[bittersweeter]

Gray. But I am fond of Zacharov. [ she... hasn't said they won't be getting married because lol lila is eighteen and that's stupid, she's just going along with the flow of the conversation.

IT'LL PROBABLY HAPPEN IF SHE'S STILL ALIVE IN A COUPLE YEARS. ]

[ambitionist]

[HE'S JUST TEASING HER GOSH. he doesn't have sisters anymore, he has to adopt new ones.] Sounds like a get out of jail free card to me. But, then, I've heard way too many mispronunciations of Karamazov over the years.

[bittersweeter]

Well, you can marry him, if you'd like. [ /shares.

wait............ what sister would that make lila? 'cause if abigail is sonja, then lila would be nat or tori and it's probably not nat. OH. OH NO. ]

[ambitionist]

[yeah pretty much. WHATEVER ALEX WAS REALLY CLOSE TO TORI WHEN THEY WERE GROWING UP. SHE WASN'T THAT BAD. not ... all the time.] No thanks. I bet that five o'clock shadow is a nightmare when you're making out. Like sandpaper.

[bittersweeter]

[ she would totally be tori. ]

It's like exfoliating. I like the feel of it under my nails.

[ambitionist]

[he snorts, then takes a sip of his tea.] Hey, whatever floats your boat.

[bittersweeter]

Plus it tickles. [ om nom she's gonna start on her soup. chinese kelly bailey lied tbh. ]

[ambitionist]

[rude. w/e, he doesn't blame her.] I hate how that shit feels. But maybe I just have sensitive skin. [you do, alexander. and it's precious.]
