[palaverous]

Oh.

Alright.

Uh, thank you.

[HE AIN'T GOT NO SPINE. Slowly, he spoons the food into his mouth. It's... alright. Better than an empty stomach at least.]

So. Do you... live here?

omg damon ur a jerkface

[gazeback]

Well I don't care about your twenty.

[ it's an annoyed huff that lacks patience entirely, she looks around herself in what seems to be growing anger and despair. since seriously? think of home had landed her here? ]

I care about the idiot that knocked me and nearly had my heart ripped out by some old hag of a witch -

[ yeah. yvaine, how was even his fault? ]

where am I?

[ eyeing him. ]

and who are you?

[premier]

[She hears that giggle. She knows that giggle. Ughhhhhhh

Accusingly:] That was red, a moment ago. [GIRL WHAT ARE YOU DOING.]

[snipers]

[ ... oh huh. he actually did it. she's used to dumb boys fighting her whenever she tries to look out for them. this is a nice change!

still, she scoffs at the question. ]

Tch, yeah right, like I'd be caught dead here. No, I was brought here, just like you.

[candyrocks]

Yeah, I don't really like gravy, either.

[Still pouring it on.]

but he's an adorable jerkface. admit it. u luv him

[withbite]

Heart-ripping idiots? Well, that narrows it down to about five or six. But I'm sure there's more of those here. As for where 'here' is, didn't the little buggers tell you when they dragged you here? Caer Scima. Home of the Unseelies.

Congratulations, gorgeous. You're conscripted into a fairy war.

[He reached for her hand, lifting it up to kiss the back while smiling over it at her.]

Damon Salvatore. And you?

[candyrocks]

I think I'm near there! Or there! At least, I'm pretty sure. I only just got here.

[sangilak]

[ beat.


beat...




well. ]

Actually, you're in the wrong universe.

[sangilak]

Big gold castle, surrounded by mountains?

[baseborne]

He is called Ghost. [For what it's worth, he's made no overtly aggressive gestures, though he hasn't taken his own big, red eyes off her either.] He will not attack save at my behest. [That's not strictly true, of course: he'll also attack when he knows something Jon doesn't (which is not uncommon.)]

[contrasting]

[She's a bit surprised at that sudden push. She and Yukari had shared a lot together, been through enough that hugs like this had actually become a bit more commonplace. But the push is nothing compared to what Yukari actually says, an unbelievable comment that Minako actually snorts a bit.]

Oh, come on, my hair might be kinda frizzed a bit from the trip over here but I doubt I look that different. [Oh, if only she knew.

Then she has a thought that makes her pout a bit.] This isn't payback for laughing at Junpei's joke, is it? You know he's just kidding when he says that stuff.

[ikols]

There's spit. In the mayonnaise. Was that gratuitously unclear? My bad.

[ Stuffing hands in the pockets of his green duster, he starts to amble away. He helped! What more can be asked for. ]

Princess Peach doesn't hold that much allure, let's be honest.

[snipers]

[ now yukari feels something akin to fear twist in her gut, and on instinct that immediately makes her defensive and a little mean. ]

I don't know what kind of a joke you're pulling— [ and she sneers just a little, crossing her arms ] — but it's not funny. Just because you're a student at Gekkoukan doesn't make us best friends.

[ AND SHE HAD SUCH HIGH HOPES... ]

[anarchos]

[He'd sit too, if he wasn't so concerned about needing to get to his feet quickly. The whole place is too goddamn shady - as if he's anyone to talk about shady behaviors, so it's probable they don't even stand out like he imagines.]

Your guess is as good as mine, considering I was literally dropped here the same way, and not that long ago either. [He takes another glance around them.] Haven't seen anyone else yet.

>:| 4 ever

[gazeback]

I don't care about fairies. or war.

[ but that's not true at all, is it? a moment later she frowns. ]

fairies are not known to embark on many wars, that seems to be a human thing. Why are they fighting like this?

[ and then he gets a look. the star, perhaps, thinks him a little bit mad. ]

-- Yvaine.

[magestache]

[ Madame de Fer has always made for riveting conversation, that much is true. And her understanding and maneuvering of the Game is about as close to Minrathous as he can get. Of course, Dorian's sure she would freeze him in place if she knew he likened her to any in the Magisterium, but they're not all bad. On the outside, anyway. And isn't that how it always goes?

He's almost not surprised to hear Vivienne make herself known. Any ball with this much power involved should practically summon her. Her trained imp, now that is a surprise. Reminds him of the way Vivienne got Bull to say his please and thank yous. On second thought, maybe that isn't such a surprise. ]

Ah, but of course. [ He smiles, as warmly as one can when surrounded by strangers. ] Start the meal right with an appetizer before you're dead by dessert. I've had Orlesian dessert before, it's fitting. There are certainly worse ways to die.

<3

[withbite]

Join the club. None of us that are brought here really seem to give a crap, yet... here we are.

[He gave her another shrug, looking around.]

Can't say I'm familiar with fairies beyond what I've seen here, so you're one up on me in those terms. As for why? Does it really matter?

[Hah. He smiled wider. He'd gotten a name. Point for Damon.]

Locket | Bawhahahaha

[getinthechariot]

Why, I believe you know the answer to that already!

[Being careful was for lesser men]

How have you been, King of Heroes?

[belligerents]

[Well isn't he luck with his two functioning legs. It's not like she wasn't shot making sure Murphy didn't kill him. Though she doesn't say anything more on that. She is aware of just how much she's sticking out, just chilling on the floor while others are meandering to the hall. This is not what she wants at all.

But Raven doesn't ask.]

Well are you going to help me up so we can go look for them? [Or is he going to leave her there at eye level with his crotch? She blinks slowly to look up at him, not offering her arms like some child, but if he leans over her, maybe she can pull herself up to hobble on him. Raven needs to do something about this situation, and she isn't going to let him leave her. They aren't back home where she's too important as a mechanic. She is not getting left behind.]

[oldest]

What sort of fucking idiot spits in a bowl of mayonnaise? that stuff is freaking expensive.

[ she pushes the bowl away. now what? who the hell makes a sub without mayonnaise? ]

thanks.

[ begrudgingly. ]

more of a pointy-ear girl then?

[ this smile because look. you people are dressed like action figures. ]

[ikols]

[ Loitering when she makes him smile, he shrugs. ]

I'm not overly fussed, but Peach treated Bowser pretty unfairly in the grand scheme of things. I could never bring myself to care about saving her, in the end.

[ He did but it wasn't as fun as the actual levels. ]

[palaverous]

Your entire plate is gravy.

[God.]

[contrasting]

Yu-Yukari ...? Come on, that's ... that's not funny anymore. [She keeps laughing nervously, despite how angry her friend looks. Though she barely looks like a friend now with how serious she's playing this part.

And then she wonders. Did they kill Ryoji? When the fairies had taken her, did her friends step up and make the decision themselves? Did they choose to simply wipe away their memories in the end ... ?

Despite everything, Minako doesn't frown. Even if her smile has vanished, she continues to look Yukari straight in the eye.]

Do you ... really not remember me?

[palaverous]

...So we're all part of some... fairy kidnapping ring or something?

[If you want a weak willed boy to do your bidding, Wirt is your man!]

[easternseaqueen]

[Huh, it's not usually quite this busy. How odd. Still, she makes her way over to the empty seat, throwing a long look at her neighbor.]

You new here, too?
