Room in Arms Hotel - Sunday Night
With everything else going on this weekend, Rose had been able to convince herself that she didn't need to tell Dimitri about her plans until the last minute. Now...wasn't the last minute but she was starting to wonder if she maybe should let him in on the whole 'let's go to Russia' plan ( Read more... ) -
Moroi Court, Pennsylvania | Sunday Afternoon
Rose hadn’t gone to mass this morning. She knew she should, but she’d quite possibly - okay, definitely - overexerted herself training yesterday, and moving, even walking down to the church, seemed like way too much effort ( Read more... ) -
Moroi Court, Pennsylvania | Tuesday Evening
The last thing Rose remembered was Dimitri and Lissa's faces above her as she sunk into blackness. She remembered trying to force her lips to form the words telling them both how much she loved them and how Dimitri needed to protect Lissa now. She remembered being utterly pissed off that after everything, after fighting Strigoi and being arrested ( Read more... ) -
Outside A Cheesy Motel in Sturgis, MI | Friday Morning
It didn’t matter how often they happened, spirit dreams were always weird. Weird but - usually helpful. They were a little like Fandom that way. The spirit dream Rose was pulled into this morning was from Sonya Karp with generally bad news. She hadn’t been able to get to Jill - Victor and Robert had stolen her away from her mom’s house. Victor ( Read more... ) -
I-75 from Paris, KY to Ann Arbor, MI | Thursday
Lissa’s half-sister lived in Michigan. Michigan. It wasn’t even that far of a drive from Paris, Kentucky, and thanks to St. Vlad’s late Easter break, she’d actually be at home right now. Yeah, St. Vlad’s Easter break - Lissa (and Rose of course) had gone to school with Jill Mastrano for half their lives without knowing that Jill and Lissa shared ( Read more... ) -
A Little Blue House, Paris, Kentucky | Tuesday Night
Rose sat on the porch of a little blue house in Paris, Kentucky and tried to tally up where to go next. In the house there was one wanted criminal - two if one counted her, two who’d been turned back from Strigoi, a nearly insane old Spirit user, and Kyle. Who really seemed to be forced to deal with her world at its most crazy ( Read more... ) -
Somewhere in Lexington, KY - Early Early Monday Morning
Admittedly, Rose kind of felt shitty about stealing Kyle away from Fandom right after he graduated - and right after the island decided to wander through time and space. But - she needed a human who could go up against a Strigoi and not instantly die, and Kyle was one of the few who fit the bill ( Read more... ) -
I-65 North | Wednesday Night
If Rose was a Strigoi (which was so never happening, but let's just say 'if'), she would live somewhere way, way better than freaking Lexington, Kentucky. Ms. Karp, however, apparently disagreed ( Read more... ) -
Cafe du Monde, New Orleans | Sunday Night
It wasn’t until they’d finally made it to New Orleans that Rose finally realized they were going there during Lent. Of course they were. When else would Rose Hathaway get to go to New Orleans? She couldn’t help rolling her eyes a lot ( Read more... ) -
Middle of Nowhere, Lumberton, Mississippi | Thursday Afternoon
There wasn’t anything in Lumberton, Mississippi. Fine, there was a mechanic who said he could fix their car maybe by tomorrow evening. Apparently they only kept parts for trucks in stock - and the Honda Civic that Dimitri had decided was appropriate was definitely not a truck. It also got such a side eye from the mechanic, that Rose wondered if ( Read more... )
