"Stay with me, Mrs. Harmon... Look into my eyes, hold onto my gaze...Live for me... Live for your children..."The last thing Vivien remembers are the concerned faces about her, the kind souls who assisted at the birth of her twins, Doctor Muraki looking her in the eye and ordering her in a voice that she felt compelled to obey, to live for her ( Read more... )

Eames's leg has finally healed: the stiffness and soreness that went with the injuries and afterward had kept him largely out of sight. But he's up and about now and currently, he's sitting in the main room, dealing himself a hand of solitaire, using a deck which the Plothole was kind enough to give him, though he's also found a deck of tarot cards ( Read more... )

Purposefully going North when all Intel said he'd head South wasn't a new thing and Bruce was well aware that SHIELD was likely still keeping an eye on him.

If he were still at home, going to school, he'd be doing his first year of HSC, maybe even thinking about what unis offered the best fashion courses. He's always wanted to study in London or Milan, ( Read more... )

Effy's been quiet lately, mostly being bored. There are no drugs or parties here, and thus the girl who was born backwards feels like the Mansion is the dullest place on Earth.

So she's sitting in the kitchen, brewing some tea (oh, British habits die hard, or something like that), and looking tired.

Anyone is free to interrupt her tedium. ( Read more... )

Yet another loss, yet someone else snatched from him. This sense of emptiness has haunted Muraki too many times than he cares to recall. His nights, sleeping tangled in his sheets, have been sleepless. At least the days have been busy, running chemical analyses on the samples which that dark gent from the land of the Nile collected, or visiting ( Read more... )

It's been a long time coming - many hurdles have delayed the event, but it has finally happened. Posters have been put up in various places throughout the Mansion throughout the past few weeks, from the moment that the date was set.
