ZG end times: II
"Dead as dead can be, my doctor tells me
But I just can't believe him, never the optimistic one
I'm sure of your ability to become my perfect enemy
Wake up and face me, don't play dead cause maybe
Someday I will walk away and say, 'You disappoint me,'
Maybe you're better off this way..."
Sunday was... mostly only made bearable by Dave T plying me with alcohol.
The hit on Marcus Rolling Thunder went okay all things considered. He didn't manage to think up a good excuse for why he was being summoned ("I left the gas on?" FFS - seriously not cricket, boy) so the entire Sept turned up hot on his heels. I killed him and managed to get away despite Tolly piking my essence and commanding me to stay and Michael dazzling me. 20 luck and 24 willpower is barely enough. Bleh. Marcus was brought back as an umbra ghost by Jude - fine by me. I'm not sure who knows (if anyone) that it was Ash since she was looking like Rkleish at the time.
The particularly bad point of the whole thing was the fact that the Fang broke - which is what happens if you kill members of the Silver Pack apparently. Sigh. (Since Mahrie sold her soul to get Jamie back I'm hoping he can fix it... if he doesn't want to kill Ash that is.)
Hitting Pints and Fink at the Cam court would have gone fine if it hadn't turned out that one can Aegis being Flux-touched. That call still seems really wrong to me, but there we are. The rest of the room joined in trying to kill Ash despite all that she was doing was prodding one vampire. Tsk. Also I think Tolly was there and he piked her essence again and tried to Labyrinth her. Still, she evac'd back to Mile Deep okay thanks to Jack.
What's next? She will Flux Jack and then they will dance the Spiral together. My plan is that in doing so she'll either save the world or get Rkleish back. I'm not sure she really cares which any more. (I'm mostly working on the premise that with Michael and Petra Spiral-ways, Sally won't say 'Mwaha, you Fell, stupid you' much as she may wish to - because Neil would kill her and Michael is the 'heart of the venue' so that isn't how his story ends.)
Blergh.
"Leaning over you here, cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection of what you could and might have been
It's your right and your ability
To become my perfect enemy
Wake up and face me, don't play dead cause maybe
Someday I'll walk away and say, 'You fucking disappoint me!'..."
