ღ voicemail

[halfthelady]

[Jessamine's voice is pleasant and lovely as a lady's voice should be. This reveals nothing of the countless hours she tried before hand to record the message. You wouldn't have guessed that she was ready to chuck the phone into the lake mere moments before.]

You've reached Miss Jessamine Lovelace. I'm terribly sorry to have missed your phone call,

Hey! I just noticed in Jesse's Jem post that Jessamine says she's staying with Magnus and the others.

*headdesk*

I didn't know this when we started doing that thread in Alec's voice post. Do you want to factor it into the thread? I mean, Alec can be kind of oblivious sometimes, and it's possible that they might have missed one another if they were going about the mansion at different times... I guess? Let me know!

<3

Haha, I kind of forgot to tell the other residants in the house that I was doing that xD; My bad! But sure, we can do that. I mentioned that Jessamine hadn't met other people too, so we could always do that.

Re: ooc.

[bottleblueyes]

Oh, no problem! I haven't read the book yet (it's on my list), but I had remembered Jesse saying that the Shadowhunters in CA didn't like Downworlders, so I wasn't sure if that meant you were staying in the mansion with the rest of us or getting your own place.

Why don't I have Alec notice at some point during the conversation that the surroundings of where you are look very familiar... and then he'll make a comment or something. Sound good?

[halfthelady]

Haha she doesn't at all XD But she can't stay by herself because ya know, that's not ladylike at all :|b

Sounds like a plan! ♥

[halfthelady]

[magicalderp]

Well Arthur is dumb and will probably be vanishing soon. and Merlin gets all BAAAAW without his abusive BFF so maybe they could do something then? :D COME COMFORT HIM HE IS A SAD WARLOCK.

ooc.

[halfthelady]

This sounds like a fantastic idea. Jessamine is all about comforting the cute boys.

I'll keep an eye out for the post!

Hey.

[There's a small pause. Desmond can't really remember the last time he called a girl. This is a bit awkward for him.]

Well, seeing that this world has an obsession with food, I'm just making sure you're all right. And if you still wanted some company for your walks.

[His Italian ancestor makes this look so easy...]

[halfthelady]

[Jessamine pauses, kind of staring at the message a minute before calling him back with a bit of a laugh in her voice.]

You have immpeccable timing, I was just about to go for a walk.

[ IC ] [ Voice ]

[failssassin]

[There's a brief look of relief that passes over his face, one that none can see. Though Jessamine can probably hear his small smile in his voice]

Aren't you afraid to be attacked by a gingerbread man?

ic + voice

[halfthelady]

[She hears the smile and decides to humor him.]

Positively. And here I thought that I was going to have to face them alone.

IC [Action (sort of)]

[failssassin]

[This Christmas morning, if and when Jessamine looks under the tree in her mansion, she'll find a small gift wrapped in blue paper that wasn't there the night before. In it, she'll find a delicate silver flower pendant on a silver chain. There's a card with only few words on it]

Merry Christmas Jessamine,
DM.

[How the gift got under the tree during the night is a mystery...]

IC

[halfthelady]

[Jessamine is cleaning up the remains of the presents when she notices the present. She's a bit confused at first to be honest when she sees the necklace, but upon seeing the card it's enough to bring a chuckle to her lips and slight blush to her face.

She's quick to put the necklace away though when she hears Max coming up behind her to ask what she's laughing at. She makes a mental note to thank Desmond for his gift later.]

[failssassin]

[Desmond looks rather uncomfortable and unsure when he calls her, but after learning of Isabelle's murder, his first thoughts were of Jessamine. So he calls her to make sure she's all right. Because no matter how much the two girls don't get along, he's pretty sure she still cares about the other Shadowhunter.]

Hey.....I.....I just wanted to check and ask if you are....all right....

ic + voice

[halfthelady]

[Excuse Jessamine if she's only going to use the voice portion of the call. She doesn't exactly want to see anyone at the moment. She's been doing her best to cope and that usually means trying to go about doing things like nothing is wrong. It's difficult though and her usual activites had been done with a lackluster effort. When she gets the call, she almost considers not answering simply because she doesn't want to speak to anyone.

She knows she can't do that though and finally she picks up.]

Desmond. Of course, why wouldn't I be?

[ IC || Video ]

[failssassin]

[Desmond is not entirely surprise to hear the blond denying any emotions she might feel about the whole ordeal. And that's why he's going to tilt his head, giving her a slightly stern look. He knows she can see him and he really wants to let her know that it's all right for her to talk about this. At least to him.]

I know about what happened to Isabelle. How are you holding up?...Do you need anything?

ic + voice

[halfthelady]

Oh. That. [She knows that he can't see her but she still looks away from the Dreamberry, busying herself with combing her hair. When she speaks next though, her voice wavers only slightly.]

I'm fine. Living at the Institute you get quite used to being around death. A lovely environment for a young lady like myself, correct?
