The day itself is bright and warm, though perhaps it seems to the mourners as if a cloud hangs around their little end of the Heart cemetery. For here is the casket that holds Itchy's body, cleansed and prepared in keeping with his beliefs by other Jewish members of the Deck. There is no long service or visitation, no flowers to be seen, but before ( Read more... )

The sun was just barely peeking over the horizon when the young Heart finds Dr. Itchy collapsed on the floor of his clinic. She was only a servant who'd been tasked with bringing him something for breakfast but when she catches sight of him, the tray drops to the floor, china shattering and food spilling everywhere. She ignores the mess and instead ( Read more... )

Buried under a pile of paperwork and realizing he wasn't even aware of working through Shabbat, the Jack of Hearts is going a little meshugge. He needs out, he needs a night off...he basically needs the Shabbat he missed.

Kalei is snuggled up warm in a snuggie watching one of her favourite movies. Join her?

Hadyn...has had a very tight schedule of late. Between studying, working for Itchy, training with his mother and Julien and jamming in a social life when he can? Sleep has somehow taken a backseat to everything.

The new Jack's willing to rework his schedule, take on the Suit's paperwork, and generally make himself available. But there is one thing you're not taking from him:

Well, he was out of Percocet. Which sucked. Therefore, it was time to deal with the problem and get it the hell over with. So, in the wee hours of the morning, he headed to Heart castle and the offices of one Itzhak Operman, serving as the doctor for the Heart Suit. No way in hell was he about to trust anyone else at his back, knife in hand; at ( Read more... )

Jake's taking a break from his stable duties and spending the afternoon closeted in his room, writing a few letters to his siblings...wherever they are. He doesn't know if they'll ever receive them, but at least he's trying.

Shall we have drinks and speak?

Ceiro needs to have a chat with Blythe. Nothing terrible, but he has a job for her. Something he thinks, might be both good for her and good for his sanity.

Anyone else can tag, and....I'm sure there is something he can help you figure out. :) He's good at that. Or at listening at least.
