-2 Woolongs~ Dictated

[3nterprising]

[For the moment, Faye is sitting in her room in the castle, curled up on the window nook. Her journal is in front of her, her fingernails tapping lightly on the cover as she stares blankly out the window. With a sigh, she flips open the journal, looking at a blank page before speaking.]

If anyone out there knows how the other me got home, don't hesitate to fill me in.
I know I was originally destined for riches and all, but I just need to get out of this castle.

Where do people live in this place if they don't live in the castle?

[Which got her to thinking.]



Where are you?

[3nterprising]

Well, how do you know it's people? Could be the castle ghosts, you know.

[gottaknockhard]

Yeah, it could. But this time, I caught him in the act.

[3nterprising]

Oh? Who was it, then?

[gottaknockhard]

[This would be the perfect time to mention that Gren is working with Vicious, but... saying who broke in will only lead to more questions than he has the energy for at the moment.

He'll say that's the reason, anyway.]

Some guy.

[3nterprising]

Hm. What good will just visiting the room do? Some guy could just come back the moment you leave. Unless you plan on leaving a booby trap or something.

[She'd forgotten just how hush-hush he was about certain things, and in this short period, she quickly re-learned that she wouldn't get an actual answer from him.]

[gottaknockhard]

[So far, he's been more open with her than he ever would have been before. Little steps.]

That's an idea. [She brings up why he's been considering moving back in. It's not like he's avoided that much with his time away -- although he'll probably change his mind again before long.]

[3nterprising]

[If only she knew!]

What, a booby trap? It'd be easier if you just took everything with you.

[If he moved back in, he'd probably never see the end of her.]

[gottaknockhard]

[He'd have to keep it on the down low. This is a risky proposition.]

Until I'm locked in the castle again. It's harder to avoid than you'd think.

[3nterprising]

Locked in the castle?

This place just gets better and better.

[gottaknockhard]

Usually the way it goes.

[3nterprising]

I guess you'd know about that.

So, are you going after this guy, or what?

[gottaknockhard]

[In the shape he's in... well, it's not to say he hasn't considered it. There's only one thing stopping him.]

So you can watch?

Sorry, another con!

[3nterprising]

Well, it would give me something to do.

no problem!

[gottaknockhard]

That bored already, huh?

[3nterprising]

Hm. You'd think there'd be more to do in a castle.

[gottaknockhard]

[Usually right when you start complaining about it.. Spike restrains himself from saying as much.]

Yeah, you would.

[3nterprising]

[She lets a brief pause go by as she leans back into the couch cushions.]

Are you planning on camping here all night?

[gottaknockhard]

[He shrugs.]

I am pretty fond of this couch.

[3nterprising]

That's no surprise. Did you even have a bed on the Bebop? If so, you never used it much.

[gottaknockhard]

[For the record, he'd much rather talk about his old couch habits than Vicious or his break in problems. If Faye is just giving him a break, he'll take it..]

My room didn't have a fan. [As if that explains everything.]

kghbbusvnl I fail.

[3nterprising]

That's your excuse?

No worries! Holiday times are busy busy

[gottaknockhard]

Who said I needed an excuse?

/nod nod

[3nterprising]

You don't need one. You just have one.

[gottaknockhard]

You asked.

[3nterprising]

[She laces her fingers together and stretches her arms above her head.]

I guess I'm just not used to getting answers from you.
