forward-dated to late evening;

[custodismundi]

[once dusk settled over Cair Paradisa and townspeople began finding refuge inside their homes... castle residents starting to filter back to their rooms or go about their evening routines, things began... happening, slowly but surely, throughout the evening hours

Comments

ACTION; city royale filter // alexstrasza & evangeline, vriska & adachi

[custodismundi]

[Vriska and Adachi will come to in some poor bastard's living room in town; the house's previous residents are nowhere to be found... but there is plenty of blood to suggest why. they're bound by wrist and ankles by thick chains and tossed on the floor.

and also, there's two new Methuselah occupants keeping them company...]

[darkevangel]

Looks like they're waking up. [ Evangeline is doing her best to look properly frightening.... or as frightening as a ten-year-old girl wearing a frilly pink dress can look, anyway.

Seeing as how parts of it are a much darker red, that shouldn't be too hard, though. ]

she hates you eva, diaf B((((

[nurturing]

So it would seem. It's about time.

1/2

[foolreversed]

[Adachi blinks blearily as he begins to wake up. His first instinct is to try and rub his eyes but of course that's stopped by the restraints. His heart stops; being kidnapped isn't the first thing he thinks of. Going back home is. Although he quickly realizes that's not the case: these aren't handcuffs, this isn't a jail cell and he still has all his memories of Paradisa.

He tries to sit up but only succeeding halfway. Surveying his surroundings indicates 1) a completely unfamiliar place covered in blood (blood), 2) chains around his ankles as well, 3) one familiar grey skinned girl in a similar predicament, and 4) two other women he'd never seen before.

Shit. Not good.

There's a deep frown on his face for a moment before one of his many defense mechanisms kicks in and a nervous smile spreads across his face]

ACTION; city royale filter // cross & charlie, cordelia & akira

[custodismundi]

[on the other side of town from Evangeline, Alexstrasza and the other 'terrans'... Cordelia and Akira are waking up in a similar position. they've been bound by silver chains around their wrists and feet, sprawled on the floor of some poor townsperson's house in disarray.

two studs redheads are watchin' a watch over you... wouldn't wiggle too much. some people like to play with their food.]

[letsbe_clear]

[Cordelia, in the meantime, is just glaring. And trying to work the silver chains on her wrists apart]

If they are what I think they are? We are the room service.

ACTION; base filter // ciel, carl

[custodismundi]

[THE TWO SHOUTAS... it is fate.

Carl wakes up bound like the others -- but unlike them, he is alone in a sterile, cold-looking room underground in the Methuselah base... with no Ada anywhere to be found ;(. poor kiddo... all alone...

...except for the tiny Methuselah boy eying him like meat, that is.]

[marionttepurple]

[Why...did he have to be a shota...WHY...and the lack of his sister makes him a very unhappy camper.]

...Where am I?

[demonlordling]

[He gives him the softest little smile, as if everything made sense.]

My house. Welcome.

[marionttepurple]

Your house?...What do you want with me?

[if he says 'playing'...]

Abel

[benevolentstar]

[Esther is surprisingly calmed and reigned in even if she's practically boiling over with rage. More senseless violence from him. She's sick of it. She's sick of doubting her own identity.]

I got your "message." What are you up to now?

Esther

[custodismundi]

A simple experiment, Lady-Saint. That's all.

Abel

[benevolentstar]

What experiment would that be?

Esther

[custodismundi]

I warned you, didn't I...?

I would turn my sights on the castle if you continued your games.

Abel, dictated;

[deathwarder]

[ Deathwing is half-tempted to invade Abel's brain again just to finish the job he already started, but somewhat calmer than before, he'll resort to taunting him from afar. ]

Terran or otherwise, blood spatters just the same. And no matter how you pray, even a god cannot save you now.

Deathwing; dictated;

[custodismundi]

I have no prayers for God. [believe him; he's an atheist, even when a priest later in life... ;/]

The Lady-Saint believes your sister is under the influence of a loss.

Abel, dictated;

[deathwarder]

So she may be, but that will not stay my wrath.

[ You're going down before this is all over, Abel. Rest assured. ]

Deathwing; dictated;

[custodismundi]

Her well-being is mine to keep, even if she is. And I have done a better job than you, considering your methods of... 'assisting' your kin.

[disgusted by you forever. kin is everything to him 8|]

Acting as if you have a reason to be angry when you yourself inflicted hell upon her... what right do you have to wrath? Your hatred should be aimed at yourself.

Whatever I might be, at least I would never turn fangs on my own brethren.
