re: looking for a game

[learnyourplace]

I do know what you mean by "ridiculously minor." I'm rather hoping you'll give up on this futile search for a game. As far as I'm concerned, these "games" are anything but. Let me go, mundane. That's all I ask.

well hi there

[paterelohim]

[oh, baby girl. Long time, never see.]

Haven't you ever seen Lord of the Rings? Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.

hello yourself.

[learnyourplace]

[Man, if she only knew... As it is, hello prophet.]

I am not insignificant. [Just a minor character. There's a difference.] I do not wish to change anything. She should let me go and concentrate on other plots and characters. [Lies. Changing things is all she wants to do.]

just bringing a dad nbd

[paterelohim]

Yeah, you're right there. You definitely don't want her focusing on you.

[learnyourplace]

I've seen what she can do to her other "muses."

[paterelohim]

They find your weakness and just pick at it like vultures.

[integrity]

What, so you can run around stabbing people?

Please, sweetheart, stay in your own corner, attached to your little puppet strings. We'll all be much better off.

[learnyourplace]

[Her chin lifts.] There is always reason behind my actions. [You, she'd stab. No questions.]

[integrity]

Yes, you and the rest of Team Feathers.

[With only the slightest amount of disdain.]

It's a shame you didn't get to see the grand finale of our so-called master scheme that you hated so much.

It was a doozy.

[learnyourplace]

Your "master scheme" would do worse than the Apocalypse. [Reminding her about her death? That's a low blow even for you. Her expression is tight, angry. (A touch of hurt, layered beneath it all.)] How did you fare afterward?

[integrity]

I fared well enough.

[No, he didn't. Not really. But he's not having a feelings jam with an angel that he doesn't like.]

[arealgem]

Ha. Good luck getting these bitches to do anything you want them to.

[learnyourplace]

[Dryly, if only because she can agree with the sentiment but she certainly doesn't like the tone.] She will, of course, go against my wishes. It's inevitable.

[arealgem]

Well unfortunately mine is forcing me to tell you to come to the place I'm headed.

[Watch Ruby looking thrilled.]

[learnyourplace]

[... Wonderful. Dryly:] I'd love to spend time with your kind.

[arealgem]

My sentiment exactly. Who knew we'd be agreeing, hmm?

[freckleswasmean]

They won't do that. These... things seem to delight more in torture than Alastair himself. You're much better off shutting up and going for the ride. [Lilith is being helpful. Sue her.]

[learnyourplace]

[She's less than pleased by her mun doing this, but the last thing she'll do is take any advice from Lilith.] I'll do what I deem is best.

[freckleswasmean]

[W/E She could give no fucks. She tried and that's all that matters.]

You do that. I'm sure you'll find it doesn't get you anywhere.

[learnyourplace]

That's what I'm hoping for. [Going nowhere would be best.]

[freckleswasmean]

The problem sweetheart, is that the less you want them to do, the more they want to.

[ofthursday]

[Well, this is... Awkward.]

Hello, Rachel.

[learnyourplace]

[Oh, awkward is one way of putting it. Her expression is tight, her demeanor defensive.] Castiel. [She doesn't sound particularly pleased to see him.]

[ofthursday]

[He's not surprised, but after everything, he doesn't have much desire to fight, or much fear of what she might do. And after staring at his sister for a few moments, only one thing comes to mind to say.]

You were right.

[learnyourplace]

[She looks down. She believed in you, Castiel. It seemed like he had been the answer to her prayers.]

I rather wish you'd figured that out before you stabbed me.

[ofthursday]

I was doing what I thought had to be done. And I was acting in self defense.

[She may have been right, ultimately, but she still betrayed him. Even now that's how it feels to him; she had stabbed him first, when he'd been unarmed. They're even in that regard, as far as he's concerned.]
