[Getting sent to Westport by the weeping angels was more than a little unsettling for Miakis, not to mention highly unpleasant and exhausting. When she returns to Mayfield on Thursday, she eats a larger meal than a woman of her size and stature should be capable of consuming, takes a long nap, and... talks to her drone husband.

Dammit, Ken. It's

"You're welcome to come here... I'm Ruri. Scott and Tom have been quiet and things here... Weren't nice. I need help removing the barricade I set up."

[sting_like_a]

Hi, Ruri! I'm Miakis~

I juuuust might take you up on that offer~ Quiet actually sounds kinda nice, for once. [a beat] What kinda barricade?

[hontobakabaka]

"My bed and dresser in front of the door, a book case in front of the window, well near it, I had to get out of the room somehow. Those creepy statues were stalking me and well... I guess I over reacted."

"That being said, for some reason, I haven't much liked solitude since. Perhaps its lingering paranoia. There's also chocolate cake here."

[sting_like_a]

Well, it's not a bad way of keeping those statues out... I think. I dunno, they were pretty powerful...

I've never liked being alone, myself~... Cake, though. You're getting more and more tempting!

[sanctusdei]

So it really was Westport? Was there anyth--

Did you say Ken was droned?

[sting_like_a]

It sure was Westport~ It was... a pretty miserable place.

And yeah, hubby went and got himself droned. I... His stuff is still here, so he should snap out of it soon! He'd better.

[sanctusdei]

I was there last year. It was pretty much a wasteland.

Hnn. [There's a pause.] Damn right he better.

[sting_like_a]

But it was a lot more dangerous last year, wasn't it? It was pretty empty when we were all there! Very quiet. The worst part was the lack of food, honestly!

He'll come back, though! He knows I'll beat him up for leaving like that~

[A very tall fellow is walking through the park in rather boring 1950s outerwear. He is, of course, about 8 1/2 feet tall. He watches Miakis kick the soccer ball around with unabashed curiousity]

[sting_like_a]

[Miakis knew nothing of soccer before coming to Mayfield and meeting Ken, but she enjoys it well enough. It's serving more as a distraction more than anything else right now, though.

It takes her a little longer than normal to notice the very tall man's presence, but when she does, she catches the ball and waves to him with her free hand.]

Hello~

[lunawolves10th]

"Good day, Mamzel. What sort of game are you playing?"

[sting_like_a]

Soccer! [She tosses the ball up in the air and bounces it on her head a few times.] We don't have it where I come from, but it's fun! You gotta kick a ball into a net and keep the other team from doing so~... I'm just kinda messing around, though. Not enough people for a proper game.

[thief_of_truth]

If you want to crash here for a few nights after the sleepover, I don't mind.

[sting_like_a]

Thanks, Kay! I'll keep that in mind~

[thief_of_truth]

No problem!

[wristsniper]

You can stay with us, if needed.

[sting_like_a]

Ooh, but I'd hate to get in the way of your budding romance~

[wristsniper]

............

What is that supposed to mean?

[sting_like_a]

You're newlyweds! Still in honeymoon mode! It's okay, I understand~
