[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of the first half of the month.    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.]

It was asleep. Apparently so much so that it didn't notice we strolling right out of its mouth. It was...disgusting. But yeah, I'm fine.

[there will probably be nightmares, though.]

[uncurse]

Well, if you're interested in getting your mind off it, Lila tells me the new season of Orange is the New Black came out while we were gone. She suggested we make it a marathon in your room.

[reallywicked]

[She gives a noncommittal shrug, trying to brush off the memories of the mission.]

Sure. Do you mean later tonight, or...?

[She's not fond of the idea of being alone just yet. But that hard to verbalize.]

[uncurse]

If you're up for it. We can wait 'til tomorrow, if you'd rather get some rest. I can't imagine there was a lot of respite in the mouth of some monster.

[reallywicked]

No, it's fine! [She says too eagerly, too quickly. She doesn't want to be alone.]

I mean...

[Oh look hey solace! He takes Faye inside and removes her curses! Yay!]

See? Good as new. [...still a robot tho]

[uncurse]

If you say so. I just don't want you over-exerting yourself here. You just got back.

[ Looping an arm around Faye's shoulders, Emma leans towards her. ]

How about we grab something to eat, and then you decide if you're still up for company?

[reallywicked]

[Faye doesn't shrug off the arm and she might maybe lean into the contact.]

Anything sound good? Anywhere without a tropical theme is fine with me.

[Too much jungle island experience.]

[uncurse]

I'm thinking bad Chinese food. You game?

[reallywicked]

Definitely. I'm pretty sure I could eat my weight in eggrolls right now.

[uncurse]

Maybe work some real food in between the first dozen.

[ Patting Faye's shoulder, she tugs her along to start towards the door. ]

[reallywicked]

[She rolls her eyes, but the action doesn't carry much attitude. More of an 'oh mom' gesture.]

You better do the ordering, then.

[It's strange to be back in this rhythm, to be talking like everything is normal. Is it? Is it okay to be okay? Faye isn't sure, but it's nice to not think about the mission and all the horrific and traumatizing things that followed.]
