[a yawn, a rustle, and then silence]

...what the-

[rustling again, and a door squeaking open suddenly]

Nik? NIKO.

[another door is kicked open]

Uh, Nik? You're supposed to be the genius, so any idea of what the hell's going on?


[ooc: ffff so the wish was for the auphe to have never turned up/them to have a normal life. and thus, here it is. and they've just arrived too. D= notes: cal's now only 18 and finishing school. niko's still an over-educated nerd and health nut. and the boys have been living in austin, texas for the past few years. sophia free (yes, she's still alive and kicking. drinking. whatever) ENJOY.

edit: BEDTIME!]

So first he turns up. Then the cat follows him in. And now they come back with fucked up memories.

It's meant to work in three's, right?

[filtered to robin || unhackable]

I guess it's time we talk.

Lux. After closing.

[note left on niko's door]

Make it pancakes this morning afternoon.

With extra bacon.

So what the fuck is all the complaining about? Sure, you ended up stuck at school again. So what? It's not like anyone died or anything.

Did make me kind of wish I had a camera though.

[private to niko || unhackable]

What the fuck was-

Did you really-

Any good?

[ooc: fff this post follows after the brothers wonderful night out, killing monsters in the underground. Also. Placeholder post? BBS. I just needed to get this up before I forgot.]

[voice post]
[a rush of air that starts and stops suddenly; a gate opening]

What the fuck?

[a growl. yes really. and another attempt at opening a gate]

Shit.

[all goes silent for a while, before there's an almost silent laugh]

Well, it looks like school's out. Always good to know. And me without anywhere to go.

[sniff sniff]

Interesting.

[ooc: ( [tl;dr below] ) Also. Assume PB is nearer his thirties? /too lazy to icon hunt]

[voice post]
…you have got to be shitting me.

What is this; some kind of cosmic fucking justice? I did what I had to do. Things are better off this way.

[rustling sounds; a hunt for his device]

Where the fuck is- There.

…

Right. Which ones of you are left? Niko. Loman. George...both of you. Holly. Rose. Arion. Consider that a role call. It's the only one you're getting from me.

Cyrano, I swear, if you're gone now, I'm finding a way to bring you here just to kick your ass.

[series]: The Cal Leandros Series
[character]: Caliban Leandros

( [character personality]: )

[point in timeline you're picking your character from]: Post-Moonshine. (Also: With some memories of his last stay, pre-Madhouse-update)

I need something to do.

So they had to go with the straw kind instead of the cash-filled corpses then. Suppose it makes sense in a place where dollars mean fuck all.

Hey, Nik. Heading out. Be back later.

[ooc: ALKDJSFA BRB. My turn to do dishes/cook dinner. u__u]

Cyrano? Heading out to practice. I'm not getting blood on the sheets again.

I'll be back tonight.

[ooc: Strike=hackable. EDIT: Sorry if I disappear. Still essaying.]

Okay, so what the fuck is it?

Yeah yeah, I get the whole daemon shit. But what is that meant to be?

...

Cyrano? If you were taking in strays again, I've got some news.


[ooc: That'd be a Quoll, if you were wondering. Warning! Last link is kinda gory.]

Fine. Traded. Done with.

Happy now, Nik?

[And into the apartment he goes]


[ooc: And thus Cal's traded his way into the mirror world. >__> 'cause obviously, that's the smart thing to do.]

[Filtered to friends//Unviewable to HTOH&Ishiah]

I need a place to sleep for a couple of hours.

...

That doesn't mind having a fully grown Labrador running around.

What the fuck is up with this city? Actually, don't answer that. I don't care anymore.

They're getting out of here, no matter what it takes.

( Private to Delilah//Hackable )


[ooc: So that's...Niko, Rose, and two others so far, yes?]

Over with? Good.

[Private//Hackable]

So apparently there's something wrong with nothing happening for a while. Is a break too much to ask for?

And with her next door too...

What now? Wait and hope they never meet? Warn her, even though she probably already knows? Avoid them both, even though they'd both be able to find me in seconds, if they felt like it?

Fuck.

[/Private]


[ooc: Hey, guess what, Ishiah? You've got a little halfbreed who'll be spending too much time at work, for now. 8D Starting early/ending late. It beats risking being caught anywhere else.]

[Private to Rose//Hackable]

I need to-

We should-

Are you off counting everything in sight today?

IT WASN'T ME!

Nik. If this is you trying to get me in trouble, I'm kicking your ass. Mom's going to flip!

...

Hey, Rob- uncle? Could you help me out with this?


[ooc: B-because I'm still not sure who is taking what role and I have to head to bed before I die, have at it guys. Family Day is a go still?]

Is it possible to have two first times? I really can't work out which was really first. Charm back home, or Rose here.

I was here for six months before I...him...we ended up having sex with Rose. The one good thing that came out of that whole curse day. There was blood, then a shower, and then she was there. I couldn't get enough of her. The sight, her scent, her taste. Shit, I remember every single bit of it.

But then I went home. Six months again, and then there was Charm. The best choice out of the lot of them. It was definitely better than taking a dip into the lake in Central Park. All I can remember is singing, soft skin and the smell of fresh clover.

And then there was Delilah. She's hot, she's strong, and she isn't about to get herself killed over me. She pretty much ordered it. In the middle of Columbia Presbyterian, on the hunt for Sawney's home, and she flat out demanded sex. The revenant feasting on one of the students kind of put a dampener on things though. Once we went back to her den though. Shit. She was about as opposite of Charm as you could get.

Why the fuck am I even talking about-

Shit!

[COMPUTER SMASH!]

[ooc: Sooo, if you want to bug the guy, it'll probably have to be in person. ... Though he'll be locked inside. Not.Going.Out.Again.EVER!

EDIT: TCLS CREW, QUESTION! (Un-Flocked now ^^;;)]

[Filtered to HTOH//Unhackable]

Both of you are carrying these.

[ooc: D= Shh, ignore that this is kind of late. I forgot. Strikes=deleted]

[Voice/Action post]

One, two, three...ten...fifteen.

[You didn't have to be 'supernatural' to be able to sense the fear there. Staring up to the rooftops of a nearby building, the tension is clear. Fight or flight. Or something else completely.]

Oh, shit.

[Turning on his heel, he looks toward the roof of the building opposite. Nothing.]

What the fuck are they-

...

Where am I?

[Gone? Hiding? Or was this another trick?]


[ooc: Li fails. Epically. Aaand I couldn't wait another day, apparently. 8D Cal's back and updated to the end of Madhouse as I may've told some of you already. ( Spoiler ) If people are trying to avoid spoilers, maaay be best to avoid this one. That is all! ^^V

EDIT: The counting? It's thinking, not out loud.]

...shit.

( Private//Unhackable )


Nik, I'm going out. I don't want company.

I hate this fucking City.


[ooc: Strikes=Hackable. And thus it all sinks in =/ Cal will have left the apartment preeetty soon after midnight too. Yes, I tried sleep...and failed. D= ...if I disappear suddenly, it may be because sleep finally does hit me. 6-bloody-am and I'm not tired still.]

So, Arion? You're not moping about Sunday, are you? They'll all be back by now anyway. Except maybe the few who're still in pieces.

Hey, Nik. Thanks for helping clean up the mess.

Rose? Just blame the curse.

[ooc: Ohoh yes, VERY much cursed. Though I couldn't go as far as sparkles and things XD;; Considering emo!boy spent the Sunday doing two things he'd never go near otherwise, I really had to affect him with this one before the aftermath kicks in. 8D]

Let me guess. Another fucking curse day, right?

[Viewable to TCLS-crew]

... Nik?

Are you- Did something-

My room stinks of blood.

...why does the apartment smell?


[ooc: And strikes=viewable by Niko only~]

Well well well. Look at what we have here. An entire world and not a single one of them around.

And here I was, worried I might get bored.

Do as you're told and keep the merchandise safe. I wonder if this was part of their plans. No? Oh well~ I guess they'll just have to deal with it.

Sorry, big brother. I'd love to stay and shoot the breeze, but I've got places to go, worlds to destroy. Busy, busy, busy~


[ooc: Aaand Cal's back to being darkling!Cal again. 8D Still going to have some NPC slaughtering later between him and his future BFF, yes? Shh, I didn't rip off the last line from the book. NEVER!

EDIT: I may be a little slow for the next hour or so. Time to do the dishes. T__T Done]

These fucking things burn well.

Even if they keep turning back up again.

[ooc: Links are viewable, I guess? Placeholder again, per Alec's post]

Done? Good.

Cyrano, it's good to- it was about time- you disappear like that again and I'll have a bullet with your name on it. You're okay though, right? Nothing big happened back home?

George. Sorry for shooting- You okay?

Kurama, better? Killed Loman yet? If you haven't, why the hell not?

...

Holly. Arion. ... Sorry about before.


[ooc: Laaate. D= My bad. Um, all strikes=unhackable. Smalltextstrike=viewable to Niko only. I'm...assuming the tranq thing went ahead?

EDIT: Again, sorry for the late. I've been ill.]

[Filtered from Niko, Robin, Kurama, and House]

So Cyrano's back, injured, and acting like an idiot.

That doctor guy is a complete ass.

And Loman is selling his friends.

Thanks a lot, City. This is just what we needed.

Anyone else want to add to the list?

[Accidental Voice Post]

[There's indistinguishable muttering as Cal scans the lists, looking for a familiar name]

Come on. I said I'd go back in-

[He stops abruptly, and all goes silent for a few moments. A wry laugh]

Lucky bastard's gone home.

[The slap of a hand against concrete as he pushes away from the wall, followed by the sounds of footsteps.]

Guess the City's safer without Loman aroun- [Again, an abrupt stop as he spots a familiar surname.]

Leandros? [Make that a full name] You've got to be shitting me. There's no way- Niko?

[A fumbling sound and the click of keys as he starts working on his network device]

Where the-

[/Transmission cuts]


NIKO, YOU'D BETTER ANSWER THIS THING NOW. WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?


[ooc: I-I know I posted the last pretty recently, but now there goes another one. D= Expect mucho!pissy Cal until Sunday, yes?

EDIT: O-okay, I really want to apologise for how much of an ass Cal is being in comments too. D=]

Lyra? Here you go.

...

That fucking candy- Anyone seen Goodfellow recently?

[Accidental Voice Post]

[The sound of a television blearing away; gunfire, explosions and the like]

Isn't this the bit where they bury him alive?

[Tires screeching to a halt, and the mumble of voices from the screen]

No, no. This is where he gives up his friends to get away safely. Yeah, and then they kill the others, so he kills himself.

[A cat mews, followed by the sound of another joining it. There's a shift as he tries to push the cats off of him]

Will you two just get lost. It's getting to the bit where she wakes up.

[The two cats pounce away; knowing better than to stick around right then]

[Transmission Cuts]


[ooc: Cal's currently oblivious to the curse; sitting at home, munching on sweets and watching a film. Thanks to the sweets, the film is being scewered a little in his head 8D

Current secrets used are [Henry-Claustrophobia] [Robin-Fake] [Arion-Mortality] [Rose-Sleep])

Jesus Cyrano, what the fuck was that about?




[ooc: Niko switched with Naruto. ^^;;]

You three done now? Good.

And how hard is it to tell the difference between the Puck and the Vampire guy? For one thing, Loman is a fuck load more annoying, and you don't need to meet him to know that.

I'm not in the fucking mood for this.

( Youtube video below cut~ )

...at least I've got legs.

[ooc: Baaack~ And thanks to a certain gift that was brought back out in my house, Cal's now been turned into a 'Tickle Me Elmo' Yes, poke his belly, foot or chin and he'll start the routine. >D I was going to go with Tickle Me Emo, but...yeah.]

About fucking time. Some people here will believe anything.

For the first time, I've got to congratulate some people for getting the right idea about it. Others were complete idiots the whole time.

( Apartment folks~ )


[ooc: Deity gift, get! Cal's going to be niiice and snug in what's left off his purple jumper again for a few days. ...not that anyone who hasn't read the books will realise what it means. And I'ma keep on pimping the meme for a while too. >__>;;]

That's fucking great. Just what we needed.

... Kurama? Why the hell did your gift try to take a chunk out of me when I brought it in?


[ooc: Strike=Viewable to HTOH~]

[Voice Post]

Shit.

Nik? It's...she's here. She...she shouldn't be-

I'm not staying in this fucking apartment.

...

You should've stayed dead. Just leave me the fuck alone!

[ooc: 8D There's nothing like mindfucking your characters before breakfast~! Cal is seeing his mama, so handle with care? for your own safety

Edit: Now for a 5 hour drive home. Back later. Possibly? Home!]

It isn't because I don't feel anything for her. Actually, it's the complete opposite. And that's why I have to keep my distance, no matter what. At least until we know things are for certain. It's safer this way.

[ooc: Probably makes no sense if you've not read the books. =/ Why yes, he'll be off hiding after this for a looong time. >__>;;]

Over with? Forgotten? Good.

It was a curse. That's all.

Fuck.

Someone show me how to lock things on a computer.


[ooc: Strikes=deleted]

Hey, Cyrano? Thanks for not giving up on me yet.

Robin. Thanks for sticking around, even after all the shit we put you through.

And thanks for not running, George.

Holly, thanks for always trying to help.

And Kurama, thanks for the proof.

...

And thanks a lot, city, for making me sound like a fucking idiot.

I'm going back to bed.

... Fine. For a while then.

IT'S CALIBAN.

Use the right fucking name!

[ooc: Because when the Puck calls you Cal, you know something is going on~ Link is there for ooc player reference.

EDIT: 8am D= You know that place called bed? I'm going to it! Back tonight~]

...

Niko, I'll be back later.


[ooc: Because it's fun to make big brother worry? D=]

I-

Shit. George? I didn't-

...Nik?

Grey. Say they're grey. Please.

Say that was just a nightmare.

[ooc: Little brother says he wants out so he can ruuun!]

Jack and Jill went under a bridge, trying to find some answers.

Jack was killed... [he dumps the mud-covered body of a certain Puck in the middle of the square, smirking down at his lifeless face.]

Blood was spilled... [he looks down at his own clothes, disgusted at the sight of them]

...and Jill was abandoned there after.


[ooc: Sooo, this is a double-whammy. What happens if 'Robin was killed after he was used as a distraction against Abbagor' and if 'Cal wasn't able to come back from being darkling!Cal'. Be warned, he's a bastard. >=D Enjoy~]

Finally.

...Niko?

[ooc: Ignore the uber-short post >__>;;]

That's it.

I HATE ORANGES!

The place reeks of them and the fucking cat still wont leave me alone.

[ooc: Let's all blame Goodfellow. ...again~]
