[There is no way this won't end badly. The polite smile on his face is more of a forced grimace, and he's already lamenting to be loss of stable ground. He's spread his feet shoulder width apart and linked arms with Elena, for as much balance as they can muster]

Remind me once again, why I have agreed to this idiocy?

[Elena laughs it off] Because you ( Read more... )

[Arthur hates this place. It's not particularly unusual, because there's been lots [read: every] place in Paradisa that he's been sent to that he's found something to dislike about it. Paris is a modern city, which is the biggest strike. It's also loud and busy, with flashing lights and more of those infernal cars, though he's learned enough not to ( Read more... )

This had better be wonderful, Morgana, because this is the last thing I would like to be doing.

[He's lounging on Morgana's bed, waiting for her to finish getting ready, idly picking at the loose threads on her bedspread and occasionally batting her kitten's paws with his index finger] It was the worst date of birth I'd ever had, it has beaten the ( Read more... )

[Filtered away from all villains, First Gens, or anyone affiliated or willing to share information to them;]

[There's the sound of someone drumming their fingers annoyingly against a desk, before he finally gets around to speaking]

[It's odd being here in the church, when he hasn't since Allen had been on a loss as a small child, but the thing that stuck out sharpest in his memory of that moment, was how utterly quiet it had been. It's something he's been missing a lot of lately, and if he can get some peace out of the deal? It will be worth the venture, and making somewhat ( Read more... )

[First, there's nothing but the sharp sound of metal against metal, and leaves crackling loudly under abrupt force. From the sounds of it, they've been at this quite awhile, and one of them isn't doing too well ( Read more... )

[His eyes finally meet the other man's, half lidded in both exhaustion and impatience.] Of course I know who you are. ( Read more... )

[Dictated in Anglo-Saxon Old English]

Is there any one capable of understanding this, other than Morgana?

[A pause, he's not exactly waiting for an answer] In the event, that after this latest trick of the castles, things revert to normal...I wished to thank the lot of you. Most of you did not know me, or did not know me well.

 [Koltira has waited for and wanted this moment ever since the Light-forsaken castle stole him away from Andorhal.  The battle today is not like the last attempt; this time Arthas is separated from his pack; this time his demon-woman will not come to rescue him.  This time Koltira will not relent until either he or Arthas lies defeated and broken ( Read more... )
