Doors Logs

Who: Sam and James
What: Consolation and sleep and reunions
Where: James' place
When: The night Sam met Micah
Warnings/Rating: Language, but that's it

( The girl had always been reckless, even when he had first met her. Yet there was something about the wild thing that spoke directly to James's otherwise absent protective instincts, and he had insisted on taking her in, begging her to take food, shelter, and whatever else she had needed or wanted. )

Who: Sam and Neil
What: Almost-sex? And panicking.
Where: Cathouse
When: Just before the Memories Plot
Warnings/Rating: Drugs, language

( Tonight he looked the part, like old money rather than new, but cash was cash all the same and he turned a few greedy heads as he made his entrance. )

Who: Sam / Christine Daae
What: Memories Plot
Where: Construction site
Things to avoid: Seriously? It's Sam. Everything's good.

She'd been back to work for two days, on a site that was far away from the strip, helping to build an add-on to a retirement home. Yeah, whatever, old men weren't scary, and the place employed mostly women, and it was a paying gig, so yeah. She still had no idea where home was these days, but it was starting to matter less and less as time passed. Other things mattered more, like the completely fucked up lives of her siblings. But, bright side, things through the Door had been a complete snooze job, which was a nice contrast to the fact that every single male she seemed to meet lately had a kink for roughing up chicks. Yeah, so, yeah. And she wasn't even going to think about her possible meet-up with Kitchen Guy. She was sitting on an I-Beam when the first hint of something wrong washed over her, and it was only quick thinking that got her back against the support before the shit started in earnest. She fucking loved Las Vegas.

Who: Liam and Sam
What: A private reading of 50 Shades of Gray.
Where: The Ranch
When: Recently!
Warnings/Rating: Some language, bad literature.

( Sam was in the kitchen of the crowded whorehouse. That time of night, the place was filled with men and women waiting on appointments, and it was impossible to mistake the sounds coming from behind closed doors as anything other than what they were. )

Who: Sam and Tess
What: Sister reuniontimes!
Where: Avenue 8
When: Recently. Duh.
Warnings/Rating: Language.

( Tess slipped a joint into Sam's palm before sitting on the floor, knees up and back to the wall as she flipped through the journal her sister handed her. )

Who: Liam and Sam
What: Lunch
Where: Blueberry Hill
When: Saturday Afternoon
Warnings/Rating: None!

( It was over a hundred degrees of disgustingly dry Vegas heat, and she walked in wearing a wifebeater and denim shorts, flip flops and a messy pigtail finishing off the decidedly un-designer ensemble. )

Who: Jack and Sam
What: A chance meeting at a junkyard.
Where: A nearby junkyard
When: ~Recently

Where: Montmartre, Paris.

Who: Sam and Daniel
What: Part I: Chess - Really, seriously, chess. It isn't even a euphemism.
Where: Mandalay Bay
When: Immediately after leaving Simon's party
Warnings/Rating: Language

( By now, he'd figured out that anything she did that would make his mother faint at the dinner table was a defensive gesture, something she did to try to shock him and make herself more comfortable. )

( 'You’re in love with Christine, and I’m not Christine,' she added, with more strength. 'Or is it a game?' she asked. 'Between you and Erik, and it doesn’t matter who you’re fighting over?' )

Who: Sam (And the Phantom door)
What: Narrative: Freaking out → Welding
Where: Passages
When: Todayish
Warnings/Rating: Language. It's Sam.

( The Phantom door was, effectively, gone - the only thing left behind was a smooth, sleek, thick slab of metal, one that blocked the door entirely. )
