[Log] 2/9, A wild, wicked slip of a girl

[st_oneswidow]

Curnen had a bit of a meltdown in the wake of check-in day. A bit of a week-long meltdown running with coyotes. Coby manages to get her to come back inside.

( It hurts. Hurts like dying. So she runs. What is it? She can't remember. She doesn't want to remember. She can't remember. )

[log] Percy & Vex: another Later Talk, but why has the Courage gone?

[st_ubby]

Vex gives Percy the good news about Zahra and Kash and baby makes three. Talking about hope is hard, especially when the Courage is long gone.

( Did they elope? )

[Linkdrop] Penance - Kash x Zahra

[st_ingofthehundred]

Date: February 9, 2018

After his encounter with Curnen goes badly, Kash goes to Zahra to 'confess' kissing Curnen and maybe hurting her so badly that she can't forgive him. After that, Zahra takes him back to their room, and he gives her a little TLC while they talk about her day. Only sexy toward the end.

[Log] Bonesville: The Case of the Phantom Racer - Buffy, Carlos, Sam, Butters

[st_accato]

The Scoobies can't resist a mystery in Bonesville

( And I would have succeeded, too if it hadn’t been for those nosy people. Rogers jerked his chin in Buffy, Carlos, Sam and Butters direction. )

[Log] Date/Not Date - Buffy, Carlos, Kitty, Wyatt

[st_accato]

Takes place after this. Kitty helps Buffy figure out if it was a fluke with Carlos or something more.

( This was a great idea. If it turned out that there wasn't anything there on Carlos' part or that it was Valentine's stuff just messing with her head it would be a nice beginning of a running club. )

It's Pronounced "Tiefling" - OTA

Zahra needed to get a lay of the land now that she had arrived and things seemed to have calmed down a little. She was sure leaving the room would worry Kash, but she had only ventured out a few times briefly and now it felt right. She had filled him in on everything that she knew happened back home, spent many days enjoying the marvel of hot baths on demand, and discovered what a 'TV' was and tried to get some idea of what this plane was like. Now it was time to experience it for herself.

Zahra did not hide what she was. The red-skinned Tiefling wore a grey dress with a hole cut and sewn to allow her tail freedom of movement behind her. She decided to leave her staff behind, but she had done so after a lot of thought. The humans here didn't need to see her walking around with a weapon, but she felt naked and vulnerable. Kash said they were safe and so she would lean on those words as she navigated the inn weaponless.

She found the pool, crouching down by the water and feeling the cool water against her fingers. She could smell something from the water that told her the water wasn't entirely pure. It took her some time to figure out it was a place to bathe or swim, like a lake in the middle of the forest. She did take note of the heated part of the pool.

Her next step was through the lobby to the bar. Taverns looked similar no matter what plane of existence you were on, it seemed. She felt her stomach growl and after a moment found her way to the restaurant. She ordered the chicken because it reminded her of Scanlan.


After her meal she found her way to the library. There were not as many books as there was in Whitestone or even the Slayer's Take, but there were many. She started to peruse.

Her last stop was to Vex's room. She knocked and waited patiently.

(ooc: Find her anywhere. She has white eyes with no pupil or iris and horns on her head.)

The Succubus Cometh - Tag to Dyson

[st_unaligned]

Things had been bothering Bo for a little while and all of Dyson's excuses lately to talk had finally balled up into enough tension that she couldn't ignore it any more. When Sam had suggested something more might be going on, Bo decided she was going to track him down and not let him talk his way out of a conversation again, even if she had to forcefully keep him there.

Dressed in her usual leathers, she marched with purpose through the hallways until she came to Dyson's room. She knocked on the door, waited a second, the said loudly. "Dyson, if you're in there, open up. Don't make me break the door down."

[EP] Ashes, ashes, we all fall down - OTA

[st_oneswidow]

Curnen hated “The Queen of Argyll” with every fiber of her being. It was insipid for one thing, and for another it was the song she had a habit of falling back on whenever Bliss outshone her. Okay, rather, when Bliss outshone her and it pissed her off.

Curnen was pushing herself too hard and she knew it, but if she didn't spend the entire day with her guitar, she wasn't going to have any chance of re-rooting herself at all. She stayed close to the inn, crossed legged in the grass with her instrument in her lap to keep her from bolting. Apparently she'd spent about a week with the coyotes after the fun surprise that was the last arrival day. She couldn't remember most of it. She barely remembered running away.

She was fine.

This was fine.

The fact that she'd forgotten to comb her hair today didn't mean anything, nor did the way her fingers felt too thick and she played rather like she had months ago, too slow and clumsy to keep up with her voice.

She was singing at any rate. Never mind talking got hard all over again. She was singing.

Edward, Edward. The Fisherman’s Song. A Maid in Bedlam. She Moved Through the Fair. Wake Up, Little Maggie. Black is The Color. Wind and Rain. And round and round and piercing through swanned the fucking Queen of Argyll. Round and round so many times that the words began to lose all shape and she knew she was just saying meaningless syllables but they still sounded like words and still the feeling wouldn’t go away or get any better and and and--

And if you could have seen her there
Boys, if you had just been there
The swan was in her movement
And the morning in her smile
All the roses in the garden
They bow and ask her pardon
For not one could match the beauty of
The Queen of all Argyll
