So. It's December! For all of you newbies, that means it's about the time of year where the castle starts playing matchmaker yet again. Every year so far there's been some kind of enchanted decoration around the castle that forces people to kiss each other. Good luck trying to avoid it, that stuff is everywhere. Literally.

With that in mind, things can get a little complicated in your love life during this trying time. Maybe you'll accidentally kiss someone your best friend likes in front of them! Maybe you'll kiss someone and realize you actually had feelings for them after all. Or maybe you'll kiss your worst enemy and realize it wasn't actually that bad.

So, I'll be putting a little box at my door -- that's room 405, for anyone who didn't know -- for anyone who needs some anonymous advice about what to do about their newfound feelings, the awkwardness that ensues, or whatever. Trust me, I'm sure at least one couple will hook up before Christmas rolls around. It's a little bit sad that it takes enchanted ornaments to get the love flowing, really, but what can you do?

Have fun~ ♥

Really? He seems like a pretty cool guy to me.

Until, someone offers him enough money. Freelancers are mercenaries, they work for whoever pays the best.

I'm sure he seems like a great guy... but he's not on the clock.

[Church actually kind of likes him too, not that he's going to admit to it.]

Well, money doesn't really mean much here, if you haven't noticed. And there's not a whole lot of work, either.

You're kind of missing the point of.. "will slit your throat in your sleep if it's convenient".

Where I'm from that sort of thing makes you not very trustworthy.

He couldn't slit my throat. That suit is way too clunky and loud, I'd get him long before he got me. [ahhh, ninjas]

Missing... the ... point...

Besides, he's been here almost as long as me and he's never done anything like that.

God dammit! Not the fuckin' point!

The tigers in the zoo are really well behaved and cute too... but open the cage door and then see what happens.

Give a Freelancer a good enough reason and they stop being your friend. I don't care how nice and well behaved they are otherwise, they are still a Freelancer.

They all took the job for a reason, they are fine about killing anyone and not asking too many questions about why.

That's not going to just change after a few years of "good behavior".

Okay, let's say he really was like that and somehow got a good reason to kill someone.

Even if he did, people who get killed here come back after two weeks, and they'd tell everyone what happened. Then everyone would know what he was up to, and depending on who he killed, he'd get his ass kicked.

Pretty sure there's not enough money or incentive in any world to doom yourself to being in super-powered jail and getting killed repeatedly.

Jesus Chr-I-give up!
Fine you know what, you win... York is really a super terrific guy and I should go and be best friends with him right now.

Hey, maybe we can all go catch a buddy movie and share popcorn!

Of course I win. I know what I'm talking about. [sounds so smug LMFAO]

I don't know about a movie, but I bet he'd go get a drink with you if you asked him.

[sheesh, sarcasm escapes her]

Yeah, that's not going to happen.

[mostly because he can't drink]

Why not? You sound like you could use one.

I.. don't drink.

How old are you?

Old enough. Is there something wrong with not drinking?

It's just kind of surprising, is all.

What can I say... I'm just full of surprises.

Sounds like it.

I'm Ino, by the way.

Church

Church? Like a building?

Though I guess the guy in the clinic is "House" ...

[sighs]
Yeah... like the building.

[a little laugh]

Do you get that a lot?

Just a bit. Mostly here, actually.

Well, there's a lot of different types of names here, so that's no surprise. I mean, I was kind of shocked that "Dick" is a real name too.
