CHAPTER THREE ♔ what's done in the dark will be brought to the light



♬ god's gonna cut you down - johnny cash

WHO || The Knights
WHAT || The aftermath of Chapter 2

WHERE || London, England and variou
WHEN || Evening of June 7th --> onwards
HOW || Actionspam. Single thread.


In less than twenty-four hours, everything has turned on its head.

A Knight and her allies were kidnapped by Iscariot agents for execution in Rome, barely escaping with their lives.

A mission meant to free one Knight from the influence of a dark god succeeded - at the price of another's life.

A simple recon mission at a Keijen Blade concert nearly led to two Knights committing mind-controlled suicide in front of an eager crowd.

Several Knights went to see Draken Crombe, leader of the Church of the Lord's Humanity, speak in person, and learned just how sinister his religion's dogma is.

A call from Sir Hathaway alerted Wynn to the escape of the doppelganger from the Knight's dungeons, an escape perhaps aided by Elena Gilbert.

A demigod interrupted what might have been a simple smash and grab retrieval of an artifact.

And most horrific of all, in the middle of the night, hundreds of Shadowkind in New York City awoke, and walked in a mindless trance down to the Hudson River to drown themselves. Only the quick thinking and combined efforts of the Knights present and their allies prevented all of them from succeeding.

Beset on all sides, a dark time awaits for the Knighthood - who were already suffering from the capture of Dragon's Claw Sir Thomas Bancroft at the hands of their long time enemy Dimitris Sarandis of Andres Isle.

In times such as these, the light can be difficult to find. Hope itself seems somewhere just out of reach.

[ #nailedit. The embarrassment sure to come only makes it more important to bask in the moment, and Kate just grins right back. ] Yeah, I do. [ She punctuates this bit of half-teasing ego with another kiss and a particularly well-calculated slide of her palm. Her hands are rough for a girl who's so comfortable with private planes and there are a couple slender blade scars across her arms, ribs, and belly not quite hidden against pale skin if one's looking. When he goes for her jeans she lifts up from the counter on a hand to help wriggle them off. ]

[ that earns a warm chuckle, but then pants are coming off and he's in the freaking zone, so this train is apparently not stopping.

Guess what, he got a 20 fort save too, so I guess all the rumors are true about dean's prowess. Though his low wisdom checks combined with that earlier strength score mean he's probably not as subtle about the loud banging noises back in this room as he should be. WHATEVER. Ride of your life, official mile high club get. Also vomit free. :') ]

[ Technically Kate was already a member of the 200+ mile high club but vomit free!! Always a plus.

And good thing too; she hasn't known him long enough to hear rumors but there are clearly going to be some after this. And now all the vampires can vouch for him! In the back of her mind the sound registers as a thing that is bad but her fort save was 11, so ride of her life distraction quickly puts concerns out of her mind and prevents any attempt to put a stop to it beyond burying her face in his shoulder to avoid adding to the noise. Way to go Dean. ]

[ yowza. After all is said and done, as he's yanking up his pants, still shirtless, he shoots her an appreciative smirk because damn if it wasn't good for both of em. ] You know, I might get the hang of this flying thing yet.

[ Seriously. Kate collects her clothes from around him and slips back into them, casting a smirky grin of a look up his torso as she twists from fastening her bra and shakes her hair out with a hand, finger-combing through before putting it back up. ] Yeah? Well maybe you should let me know next time you're planning on doing some.
likedillinger: (| aw shucks)

[personal profile] likedillinger 2014-07-01 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Gonna start racking up those frequent flier miles. [ hurr hurr hurr. he ... finds his shirt and yanks that on, sigh bye bye tattoo ]

Ha ha ha. [ Kate is rolling her eyes but it's all still inevitably good-natured. She tugs jeans up and leans against the wall as she turns her shirt right-side out. ] You get to go back out there first by the way.
likedillinger: (| uh -huh-)

[personal profile] likedillinger 2014-07-01 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
Works for me. I'll just get all the applause.

There's a joke about encores here somewhere, so just pretend I was together enough to make it.
likedillinger: (give me some sugar.)

[personal profile] likedillinger 2014-07-01 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ dean grins at that and slides closer to tug her closer by the waist a second. ] Oh yeah? Something got you unraveled at the moment? [ check out that suggestive tone (cha 19). hey gurl hey. ]

[personal profile] alsohawkeye 2014-07-01 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
I can't imagine what. [ Kate's very easily hauled in, hands settling on his shoulders as she grins. ] Don't even tell me you're not a tiny bit fuckstruck right now. Or was that just Tuesday for you?
likedillinger: (| looks like elle | tastes like sylar)

[personal profile] likedillinger 2014-07-01 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. Kinda always had bad luck with Tuesdays, actually. [ yeah, he's gonna go in for one last smooch aw yis ]

[ (ok seriously how many different kissing icons do you have and are they all different women??)

kate'd be pretty content to stand there and make out for a minute or ten, but always leave 'em wanting more, or something like that. whatever. she draws back after a lingering beat and gives his shoulder a token shove. ]
Haven't you got a crowd to greet?
likedillinger: (| aw shucks)

[personal profile] likedillinger 2014-07-01 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ dean leads an exciting life, aight. ] I'd hate to keep my audience waiting. [ he backs up towards the door, spreading his palms as he shoots her a wink, and then he thumps the door frame once and heads out into the plane. ]
bigbad: injuries (I aim to break)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-07-01 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yep, Spike's staring. He slowly raises an eyebrow as Dean comes out.] Making yourself comfortable?
likedillinger: (| hrmmmmmmmm nope)

[personal profile] likedillinger 2014-07-01 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Seemed like the in-flight movie wasn't going to start for awhile.
bigbad: injuries (oh please destroy me)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-07-02 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
So you provided your own entertainment. Thoughtful.
likedillinger: (| kiss me-- i -could- be irish.)

You've gotta make your own fun.

[ Kate was going to wait longer in hopes people would fail to notice her exit but Spike has thwarted that plan so she is just going to quietly slip out and slide around Dean to her row while he takes the heat. Nothing to see here. Totally uninvolved. ]
