031 Spells Cast

[kungfuwitch]

[To anyone she talked to while on her loss]

[Phoebe sounds far more demure as she speaks. Her voice carrying the weight of the sadness and exhaustion she's finally feeling.]

I, uh, want to apologize. I was acting strangely this past week because the castle has a weird sense of timing when it comes to losses. My sister was sent home. And instead of letting me deal with the grief my own way it decided to take it all away from me. I'm sorry if I worried anyone

[There's a short pause, almost like she's thinking about saying something else... but she just closes the filter]

[Galadriel]

Thank you for trying to reach through to me. Even if it didn't work I do appreciate it.

[/Galadriel]

[Hinata]

[There's a long pause. What does she even say? She sighs softly, running a hand through her hair]

Hinata... I owe you an apology more than anyone else. I'm so sorry. Sorry that Piper's gone, sorry that I couldn't be there for you the past week. Sorry this castle enjoys toying with people's emotions to see what'll happen... None of that's fair at all. But I suppose very little about this place is...

[/Hinata]

[Felix]

Are you free? I... could really use a friend right now.

Dat filter

[whichwayyoulean]

I wouldn't say I was worried. More... creepily disturbed.

[She chuckles slightly]

At least I was telling the truth about the pancakes not being drugged?

[whichwayyoulean]

Still glad I didn't actually eat them.

Phoebe

[lord_wizard]

[Oh damn...]

I'm at the outpost right now.

Felix

[kungfuwitch]

Which one? A change of scenery might not be a bad idea, actually...

[kungfuwitch]

I'm not that bad a cook. Though Piper was always the chef of the family.

Phoebe

[lord_wizard]

The one in the Dead Zone. I...signed up for guard duty.

[whichwayyoulean]

I still didn't want to risk the happy drugs.

... Non-existent though they were.

Phoebe

[inafadingcrown]

[And that may be a slight sigh of relief]

I was concerned. [And then more gentle] And how are you now, my friend?

Pheeeeeebs

[antichauffeur]

You were acting weird?

Room Filter

[ectobabble]

[he doesn't even bother filtering back or dictating anything. he'll just be knocking on her door with a carton of ice cream and a cheesy horror movie in hand.]

Hey.

[kungfuwitch]

I can understand that. This castle always does the strangest things.

Felix

[kungfuwitch]

For Legato? Maybe I'll join you. I volunteered to help out, too.

Galadriel

[kungfuwitch]

I'm... healing...

Hesaaaaaaaaam

[kungfuwitch]

Oooooh yeah. You didn't notice that I was a bit more... chipper... than usual?

Phoebe

[inafadingcrown]

It will take time, I know. But if you should wish to speak of it or even simply desire company, I am more than willing.

Phoebe

[lord_wizard]

I don't imagine Rin would object to a few extra eyes.

Room filter forever

[kungfuwitch]

[Wait, company? She opens the door a crack, smiling a little and opening it wider when she sees who it is]

Ray, hi.

[whichwayyoulean]

That's an understatement.

[antichauffeur]

You made me pancakes and made me feel better.

[completely unconcerned here - HOW IS HAPPINESS A BAD THING PHEEBS?]

First filter

[youhavebeenflynned]

I thought you acted a bit weird. So it was a loss then? Glad it's over. Mine isn't.

[ectobabble]

Hey. [he shifts the carton so he can give her a hug once he steps inside]. I brought tin roof sundae and The Cat From Outer Space...?

[kungfuwitch]

With all the things that have happened to me in the last year or so? I'm inclined to agree.

Felix

[kungfuwitch]

I wouldn't think so, no. I'll be by later today. Is there anything you'd like me to bring?

Re: Phoebe

[kungfuwitch]

Thank you. I could certainly use some company. How about tea?
