Anyone know of a place I could stay for the next ... week or so? I really, really, really don't want to be here right now.

[and then Gale was tromping his way out to the woods, backpack over his shoulder, to wait until he got a decent reply. guess who doesn't want to deal with the fact that Katniss has a kid, right now? or, you know. ever. because everyone in this cast knows how to deal with their feelings in the best ways]

If you don't mind the couch and a couple of noisy kids, then sure.

Ino, to end

[fanstheflame]

Kids --?!

Wait, you, too?

[pardon him while he sounds confused as hell. he thought you were single]

[ino]

Yeah. Remember, I've been here forever? This is a yearly thing.

[LMFAO GALE don't worry her baby daddy is long gone HAHAHAHA]

[fanstheflame]

... Wow. It sounds really ...

[why is thinking about Ino with kids easier? oh right. because they're not KIDS WITH PEETA] .... kind of weird.

Is it?

[ino]

[a little laugh] Well, it was weird as hell when I was seventeen and it first started happening. I guess you just kind of get used to it after awhile, though.

[a pause]

It helps that the idiot I was paired with has left, too.

[fanstheflame]

No love lost over him, I'm guessing. [he sounds mildly amused] Can I get some directions?

[ino]

You're kidding me, right? One time he actually dressed up like me, with a wig and everything, and went around making cow noises at everyone.

It's right near the fountain, actually ... [insert some more specific directions here]. You can't miss it.

[fanstheflame]

... Sounds like you had a real winner, there. How did you two even end up with a kid?

[ino]

Eh? [he doesn't even know how the kids showed up ... well, no wonder he's probably pissed about katniss and peeta]

All of the kids just kind of ... appear out of thin air, so I've always just kind of guessed it's a part of the castle's magic, or something. I wouldn't touch that guy with a ten foot pole, after all. [huffs LMAO] And it's not possible to get pregnant here anyways.

I would offer room in the TARDIS, but you'd have to ask one of the Doctors.

to end!

[fanstheflame]

... What's a TARDIS?

[signedlefthanded]

A space ship.

[fanstheflame]

... I don't want to say "now I've heard everything", because I'll get proven wrong. But I'm getting closer to it.

Is it ... out in space, now?

[signedlefthanded]

No. It doesn't work here. It's also a time machine.

(it is so weird to be on the other end of this conversation)

[fanstheflame]

... I guess I've heard weirder. But wouldn't it be a little small for company?

hahaha

[signedlefthanded]

No. It's bigger on the inside.

[fanstheflame]

So ... [he frowns, but just because he's still very uncomfortable with those kind of concepts doesn't mean he can't try to understand them] ... it works like the castle itself does?

[sixguns]

I can check with th' boys, but yer welcome t'stay in the church with us. It's certainly a quiet place, and safe as houses.

[fanstheflame]

[pardon him while he sounds vaguely confused.] Church?

[sixguns]

Aye. If yer uncomfortable, I'm not offended. I'm no priest.

[There's mild humor in his voice.]

Seems there's a good number of people wantin' t'get out of the castle.

[fanstheflame]

Sorry, I should've been clearer: I don't know what a church is... or a priest, for that matter.

[sixguns]

Ah. A sacred place. I and my family live there.

[fanstheflame]

Oh. [what a funny name for just a house. because, well, he can understand the concept of home being sacred, but he fails to make the connection]

I wouldn't want to inconvenience your family, sir.

[sixguns]

Nonsense. 'tis what churches are made for, t'be places of comfort and safety.

[He's not sure if they've room, though. His boys might give him hell about it, but Noah's willing to give up his bed for a few nights in case others need it, since he made the offer.]

[fanstheflame]

Oh. ... Well ... a friend's offered me a place, but I don't want to spend too long there. Maybe I'll come by, even just to see it.
