Halloween doings

[beastisbeauty]

[Early in the evening on Halloween, Bruce emerges from his room...decked out in the full military dress uniform of the United States Army! He donned the costume reluctantly, but well...it was Halloween and he doesn't feel like fighting the castle on such a small issue. He heads for the ballroom, intending to force himself to socialize and mingle. Besides, if anything goes wrong, he wants to be where he can help.]

[ Guess who is taking advantage of the fact that the majority of you will be off celebrating at the Halloween ball to make another personal statement?

That's right...this guy.

Whilst everybody is at the Halloween Ball Silva is using this time to sneak up to M's room to pay her a visit and offer his condolences in a totally sincere way. With a little rose in his hand he approachs the door only to find the nameplate gone....]

No!

[He lets out a frustrated snarl...what was the point of that little excercise of his if she wasn't there to see the result?

Sighing, he re-adjusts his suit and leaves the rose at her door anyway. So that was it then...another chance at vengence was gone. He was stuck here until Paradisa had the good graces to send him back. Not really much point in spending the rest of his time dodging what was waiting for him.

He makes his way to his room, pours himself a malt whiskey before sticking on "La Mer" by Charles Trenet on his Ipod. ]

So it seems the one you all call "Emma" has gone home....how very sad.

Matrix 08 ~ [Dictated]

[It's early in the morning when the journals burst out with the following.]

Please state the nature of the medi-- [A pause.] Oh, really?! This is getting to be very tiresome!

[A sigh, before this is directed to the journals.]

This is the Emergency Medical Hologram speaking. If someone would be so kind to tell me how long my program was offline this time, I would be grateful.

[ So that was it... M was gone.

The one person that made him feel like he had a connection to back home. The one person who helped him battle his own personal demons was no longer here. He felt like shit and he felt like such a liar. It's digging into his head that she was one of his closest friends and yet he was never truely honest with her...about what he did for a living. But how could he? She helped take down terrorists in the name of keeping the world in balance...he ritually killed teenagers in the name of keeping the world in balance.

He couldn't have been honest with her. She'd have been so horrified at what he did. But he wanted to tell her...he really did.

He feels empty... so he's now falling back on some old habits. Namely alcohol.

He's been in the Deathmatch for a few hours now. Needless to say Dr Lin's small frame was not helping his usual alcohol tolerance .]

Red... redemption... that's aload of crap isn't..it?

You... you go through life telling yourself god has hasa plan for you. That you've done some shitty things in... in your life, in the name of the greater good but its ok....it's ok.

Cause you will be rewarded... [He burps.] for your faith. He will give you peace and love... and then take it all away because he's a massive fucking douchebag.

[ He's now yelling at the ceiling]

You hear me... I did everything you fucking asked for! Haven't I been punished enough already?

[ There then follows a thud...as Gary/Lin falls off his bar stool and is now staring up at the ceiling.]

Say you know what this place needs? mood lighting. It'll look great up there.

Quest 5: Reflecting on recent turns of events -Written-

[fuckelves]

[Thorin's not sure what to think over M leaving...true, they were not particularly close, but he did appreciate the strong woman's opinion and had a great respect for her after the business with the Gentlemen.]

...the bar won't be the same without her running the show...
