On the notion of apping him. Possibly to Paradisa

[rippering]

You'd do well not to test my patience, girl.

These games of your are none of my concern. What's one place but a moment in time before I find myself elsewhere? Yes, yes, you continue to say that I won't be able to escape the confines of this... castle. [There's a low chuckle.] I think you underestimate me.

Truly, the only thing making this entire situation even remotely worthy of my time is your mention of Helen. Oh, it has been too long...

((OOC: Consider John pre-canon! So much crazy times))

A fine deduction. Though I think it's more and more likely with the way this girl finds entertainment in our meeting.

[unnaturalpause]

Well then, I will have to consider how to, inform others of your, past, indiscretions then. In a manner, befitting you, now won't I?

[rippering]

Now where's the fun in that? Let them learn in their own time. Once more for old time's sake?

[unnaturalpause]

And if I allowed that to occur, sir, we would find ourselves back when you first started this madness, and I would truly not wish to repeat that.

[rippering]

Yes, yes - you know you begin to sound like a broken record after so many years?

[unnaturalpause]

As do you John, and your motives have hardly changed as well.

[rippering]

A flaw in both of our designs, then?

[unnaturalpause]

Perhaps, yes. Though do be aware, things are, different, in the castle. You will lose something upon arriving John, and I look forward to discovering what that is.
