[Ezio Auditore]

So, I was thinking... This may sound ridiculous.

[ Shut up she isn't flustered ahem ahem. ]

We got to know each other so well in Paris, but I didn't really get you anything for Christmas, and I feel like I should have, considering nobody would have gotten their presents if not for you.

So why don't I make you some lunch sometime? Any day is fine, since I work evenings. If you like, we can go horseback riding and have a picnic. There's a large tree not too far out that's...surprisingly warm.

[Lilah Morgan]

How's the house hunt going?

[ If all's been according to plan, then terribly. But Lana can't be controlling everything so she has to check and see. It's a casual enough question, right? Especially when the person asking was supposed to be the one 'recommending' you... ]

[/Lilah Morgan]

[Tess Mercer]

I'd like to meet, and talk. Something I wish I had done more the last time you were here. What day are you free?

[ No she isn't asking if Tess wants to talk. That isn't even an option, honey. ]

[/Tess Mercer]

[Ray Stantz & Jet]

I wanted to thank the both of you properly for helping me back at Libet. I know I wasn't really aware of what was going on when I eventually woke up, so...

Thank you. And if there's anything I can do to pay you back, let me know.

[/Ray Stantz & Jet]

[Wesley Wyndam-Pryce]

I got a new toy.

I'll be honest and say that Friday really lived up to its reputation, didn't it? I heard a lot of people got creeped out, but I didn't hear about anything serious happening. At least I hope that's right.

It would help if people checked in and let me know they're okay.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

...I'd let you know if I needed the help.

You'd better.

You don't have to always handle things alone, Lana. Admittedly, it's a lesson that I'm still trying to teach myself.

I know that. I...trust you.

[ And she feels she can trust Oliver and Crowley in a similar fashion, though not as deeply. Still, she doesn't trust any of them enough. She doesn't trust anyone enough. ]

So please trust me. This is an...emotional thing, not something that requires violence or more pain. Ignore him if you can. He just can't control himself, so don't fuel the flame.

I'm glad. I know it's hard sometimes to put one's trust in others.

I can promise you I will do my best to avoid trouble. But there's only so much that I can ignore. If he harms you, or anyone else that I care about, or begins to go back to his old ways...

He won't.

[Wes doesn't have the same conviction that she does, but he knows that Lana wants to believe that she can stop Damon and be a good influence on him. Needs to believe it. So, he doesn't contradict her, despite his own doubts. Hope and determination can be very powerful tools. He just can't help but wonder, however, how far out on a limb she's willing to go to ensure that Damon toes the line.]

Just...be careful. I know that you always are, but it still needs to be said.

I will be. Thanks.

[ ... ]

Actually, Fred and I are meeting up tomorrow after work. Maybe afterward I can swing by your place.

Oh? Well, that sounds nice. Yes, drop by afterwards.

[There's a definite softening of tone, perhaps even the hint of a smile.]
