017 - Numb

[bacchusprincess]

[There is a bed.

It's a big one even. With fine, soft sheets, though it's a bit untidy. The red baldachins that are supposed to be around it, are all torn down, lying on the ground next to the bed.

There is something else next to the bed on the ground, half under the curtains. Or rather someone. Why yes, it's Juliet! Breathing heavily even.]

Nnh... [

[Hei is lurking nearby with his arms folded.]

Well, well. What happened to you?

[bacchusprincess]

[Tilts his head to look at him, still in the middle of trying to sit up.]

... long day. [Have a trembling BEAM, Hei! Hell, he will tell what happened. :|]

[contract_star]

[Slight headtilt.] You've been drugged.

[bacchusprincess]

... [Annoyed sigh.] I'm terribly sorry for not applauding for that now, Li-kun.

[anjelsword]

[Pokes Juliet in the head with her toe. Her arm is in a sling and she looks mildly beat up.

But hey. She can move, at least.]

Isn't this interesting.

[bacchusprincess]

[Trying to move away, glaring a little.]

I can say the same to you, pretty one. [Too busy to grab the side of the bed to smile.]

[anjelsword]

[Wry smile] I don't suppose it feels very nice, does it? Having someone who would do you harm standing by while you're helpless.

[bacchusprincess]

A-ara, what are you saying 'helpless'~ [g-giggle giggle~] But I'm afraid it's true, you make me slightly tired, would you mind and step away~?

[fry_face]

{Laughs} Looks like you got into a bit of trouble.

[bacchusprincess]

Nothing that a lady can't handle...~ [Grimaces, and ah! He got a hold of the side of the bed--- just to let it go again.]

[fry_face]

{Simply, as she starts to light up a cigar} A lady, huh? Looks more like a situation that a drugged up whore would get themselves into.

[bacchusprincess]

[Now that earns a very nasty glare.] And your world must be very narrow, miss.

[ghostlighter]

[... Whoa. This is Chris coming up and kneeling down next to Juliet in concern.]

Hey. You okay?

[bacchusprincess]

[Juliet just blinks for a minute. Surprised actually, someone just asked if he is okay. SUSPICIOUS.]

I'm very well, thank you for you concern, honey~ [and another failure to sit up]

[ghostlighter]

[A bland look.] I'm not your 'honey'. [Buuut... he watches and starts to untangle Juliet from the blankets and help him sit up.]

What happened?

[bacchusprincess]

Ara, someone is shy about nicknames, and I thought it suits you. [Sighs and rest his back at the bed for a minute.]

Mm, a lady should never complain~ [smiles smiles] Accident. Now let's hear something about you, newcomer~

[damnfinecoffee]

[Ianto drops, returning a few moments later with a standard Torchwood resealable plastic bag filled with some sort of alien powder and a glass of water. He might be a little too amused by this, but he's not a complete ass. Well, not always.] A bit stuck there, are we?

[bacchusprincess]

[groans] Just what I needed, your mighty presence, King Lear~

[damnfinecoffee]

I think you'll find my presence is exactly what you need. [Have a not quite trust-worthy smile.] How much do you trust me, Juliet?

[bacchusprincess]

[Paces himself on his elbows, trembling, to look at him.] That must be a very tricky question, my friend~ I never thought you're this playful~
