Winchester/Fairfield Expedition - End!

[not_mafia]

[It's a long walk for sure, but after two full days of traveling (plus a hop back with the TARDIS), you just manage to get back to Paradisa as night falls, and the brilliant stars and gases of the galaxy light up the sky. You might not have been able to get there in time to save everyone, but you managed to help a town that was desperately in need of it and get them back on their feet. And, having left a small group of residents behind, they've definitely got quite a bit more power behind them in case another attack comes.

And now, it is time to get back and eat some fresh, filling and delicious food in your stomach, take a nice hot shower, and crawl into your soft, welcoming beds.]

LOBBY | OUTSIDE | KITCHEN

((This post marks the end of the Winchester/Fairfield expedition! It was a little bumpy, but I hope you guys still enjoyed it.))

LOBBY

[not_mafia]

[Maybe you're coming in after having gotten your stuff, or maybe you're waiting for someone to return. Either way, you're finally "home". Or, at least, back in the magical, sadistic, soul-sucking castle. Hooray!]

OUTSIDE

[not_mafia]

[Here's where you can stable your exhausted mounts, or unload whatever supplies you hadn't used on the trip. Hopefully you don't have too much to unload. Well, better safe than sorry! Let's just hope you're not too exhausted to take care of it. Maybe someone will help you if you ask them?]

KITCHEN

[not_mafia]

[Oh, sweet, delicious, fresh and uncanned food, get in my belly.]

[shortishandbossy]

[The Lorax is sitting on a stool and nibbling on a pancake, looking a little distracted.]

[acesarewild]

[and in walks Ace, completely not caring that his clothes are in shreds, his hair is a mess, and he looks like he got mauled by a wild animal.

mostly because he did.

he heads straight for the fridge and grabs a beer]

Hey, Cheeto, long time no see.

Re: OUTSIDE

[acesarewild]

[Ace is here to help you take care of your mounts, if you'd rather not deal with bringing them to the stables. his clothes are in tatters, there are little butterfly bandages all over his arms and face, and he's kind of a mess. but that's what happens when you wrestle with invisible cougars out in the grasslands for fun.]

Good trip. Let's do it again sometime, yeah, gang? Maybe next time we can bust out the guitar, do a little Kumbaya? Whhhhheeeeeeeeeeewwww.

[shortishandbossy]

[Hope you don't mind almost a full minute of silence as he looks over you deeply concerned, Ace]

...You don't look so good, kid.

Dictated

[Meg stepped into the lobby and smiled. This place was actually starting to feel like home - something she hadn't felt in a very, very long time. Hey there, Castle Wonderfuck. Miss me?]

[She began walking towards the elevators and took her journal out. Now that she was out of the dead zone she felt recharged. It hadn't been as unpleasant as she expected, but it was still draining, and a bit lonely. There were certainly a few faces around that she wouldn't mind seeing right away.]

I'm baaaaaack! Who wants to get a drink?

[unvarnished]

[he totally was not waiting for you, Meg. Nope. He just happened to be here]

I heard someone say "drink". Not surprised it was you, Meg.

[putuporshutup]

[She turned around and grinned. She definitely wasn't hoping he would be around to greet her. Not one little bit.]

Guilty as charged.

[unvarnished]

I bet I can help you find that drink. And you can tell me how the trip went.

[putuporshutup]

You do seem to be good at that. Why don't we stop by my room so I can drop this stuff off and freshen up a little?

[unvarnished]

Sounds good to me. [yeah but will they come out of her room? That's the better question]

[putuporshutup]

I'll bet it does. [lolnope Perhaps... the elevator dings before opening and she beckons him to follow her with a little wink.]

[unvarnished]

This elevator music is really catchy. I wish I knew the song.

[it's been forever and nobody probably remembers, but the elevator still plays the muzak version of a certain song]

[putuporshutup]

You're adorable.

[Pffft. This place is too much.]

[unvarnished]

[he wrinkles his nose at her] You never saw me in my awkward childhood years.

[putuporshutup]

[She wrinkles hers back.] Well thank heaven for small miracles, you never saw me in my awkward evil years.

[unvarnished]

At least you got out of yours. Some people never do.

[putuporshutup]

Mmm did I though?

[She lightly pushes him against the wall of the elevator and snakes her arms up around his neck, pressing into him completely unabashedly.]

I think you of all people know I can still be pretty wicked when I want to be.

[unvarnished]

[he casually loops his arms around her waist]

And I think you know I don't mind a little wicked now and then.

[putuporshutup]

Well, one time is hardly enough to gauge one's overall preferences. I wouldn't want to assume.

[unvarnished]

You make a very good point. I guess the only way to know for sure is testing it again.

[putuporshutup]

I like the way you think. [She stood on her tiptoes and pressed her lips to his, significantly more steady on her feet than she had been the last time... for now, at least.]

[unvarnished]

[yeah he knows he's tall, but he's nice enough to bend down so she won't have to reach so far just to kiss him]

I really hope your floor's not for a while.
