[After Damon's back from his incessant whining and complaining magical adventures as a pony, Damon cracks open that journal.]

I was under the distinct impression this place was more like Saw less Little Shop of Horrors. Then again, you guys told me there weren't any fairies and look at what showed up just days later.

You guys really aren't trying very hard to build some trust here, are you?

Anyway, all I need to know - the alcohol been replenished yet?

[He could do with a stiff drink after that.]

You know, every time someone says that, something really crappy happens.

[meaning? If things go to shit after this, Sam is blaming you, Strange Person Looking for Alcohol.]

[untilmydarknessgoes]

C'mon, what's the worst that could happen?

[He's just saying this to irritate you, Sam.]

[imnot_likeyou]

[don't do that, Damon. Sam can actually give you answers.]

Well, there was that time we were overrun by a monster invasion, some of them mutated versions of our friends who got to be that way, after they sacrificed people that they cared about.

And then there was the time that the castle turned into a broken down space station with more monsters and more sacrifices.

[a beat]

Never mind the fact that a resident could go psycho on a loss at any time.

[you know. just for your information. 8D]

[untilmydarknessgoes]

At least that sounds exciting.

[Damon, your sarcasm. Stop.]

[imnot_likeyou]

Okay. How 'bout the next time people start dropping dead, you stay here to deal with it, and the rest of us will just haul ass to the Dead Zone. Let you have all the excitement for yourself.

We're generous that way.

It's a little sad where everyone's priorities are at. Not the healthiest way to cope.

Who said I was drinking to cope?

If I need to drink away the pain of being a pony, I really should just stake myself and end the embarrassment.

[luthored]

If you're going to do that, make sure it's not where some innocent kid will find you. And if you're not...my restaurant never got touched by the thieves.

[untilmydarknessgoes]

Aw, are you inviting me out on a date, Lana?

[She isn't sure what word is missing from his sentence. 'more like saw less' It doesn't seem like that's right, but she'll let it pass. Curses to being pre-Saw series.]

There's booze in the city. Castle got picked clean, but there are still bars in the city that didn't get touched.

I also have some. [Even with the amount she will give to Reno for the DM.] Perk of not living in castle crazy.

[untilmydarknessgoes]

[Faith, you live in tragic times.]

Well, if you're extending an invitation...

[msattentionspan]

[She lives in the past. Slight difference. She doesn't know what jeggings are. That's a blessing.]

Gee, I gotta do everything around here. Find the booze, invite you over... the list of good deeds is just gettin' a mile long.

[untilmydarknessgoes]

Hey, if it's too much trouble, I could always go somewhere else.

[succubitch]

That's why some of us have been smart enough to move as far away from the Castle itself as possible.

[untilmydarknessgoes]

Yeah, starting to get that impression that's not such a bad idea.

[succubitch]

It doesn't protect you from everything, but it does help prevent some.

[untilmydarknessgoes]

Thanks for the protip.

[heloise]

Are those stories?

[untilmydarknessgoes]

They're horror movies. Well, one is. The other is a horror comedy musical.

[heloise]

That sounds like too many good things at once.

[untilmydarknessgoes]

Oh ye of little faith. There's no such thing as too many good things.

[wield]

Place goes to hell and all you're worried about is alchol. How... heroic of you.

[untilmydarknessgoes]

I know. If I was any more selfless, I think the Dalai Lama would be considering retiring early.

[wield]

Only that wouldn't happen. Ever. And I think if you of all people replaced the Dalai Lama, the word 'hope' would cease to exists as we know it.

[untilmydarknessgoes]

Wow, you're coming out claws flying this time, aren't you?
