Who: Torshael and Open
When: Afternoon
Where: Scarlet Oak Community Park

Torshael didn't have anything planned for the afternoon, so after picking up the house a bit he'd wandered down to the park, journal in hand, hoping to get some ideas for next Sunday's sermon. Along with his journal, he'd brought a book he got from the library on analyzing the many perspectives people had of Jesus. He picked out a bench under a shade tree, close to the playground so he could smile at the children's antics there. Torshael cracked open the journal and pulled out a ball point pen, staring off into the sky as he thought.

Who: Gabe and Madock
When: Late
Where: Gabe's house

Brain. Hurt. Ouch.

Three words that Madock had been focusing on for the last few hours. It was about all he could really focus on. That and telling the doctors he didn't want any blood tests. They couldn't do much about that because it was his right to refuse treatment. The stitches barely phased him, but that was mostly because the pain in his head was far too distracted for him to pay much attention to anything else. By the time he finally got to Gabe's house, he wasn't feeling much better. His head was still swirling, but at least he could make it up to the front door with Jessalyn's help.

He watched from the doorway until her car pulled out of view with promises of her calling him when she got home. Once she was gone, he made it up to Gabe's room, though his balance wasn't the greatest. He knew that Gabe would flip out, but he wanted to know if what he was feeling was normal and what better way to find out than to ask someone who'd been through it before?

Stumbling towards the door, he braced himself against the wall and reached up to knock. He hadn't bothered to change, so he was still shirtless and slightly damp, his wet hoodie clutched at his side. His left arm bandaged from the bite. He could have tried to hide it, but Madock honestly didn't think that he had enough coordination to change clothes, so he just stood there and awaited the inevitable.

Who: Krist, solo
Where: Felicity's house
When: Early morning - about 3am
What: Trashing Felicity's place Rooting around curiously.

( Wasting time with time to kill, those days... )

Who: Ben and Lyle
Where: Sarah's Place.
When: Mid-Evening - Saturday

Lyle was slightly miserable, that was for sure. He'd just gotten back from the grocery store, with what little food he had, after a spill and an awkward conversation with a man he had gone to high school with about doctor visits and dead parents and dating. All he wanted was a stiff drink and some food! Was that too much to ask for!? Quickly changing into a pair of baggy jeans and pulling on his old mechanic's shirt, he got in his car and went to find some place to eat. He wasn't really in the mood to fix dinner for himself, he could tomorrow, but right now he just needed something to eat that wasn't in a box or a plastic bag. Pulling his car up to the diner, he felt even more out of place. His 65' Mustang between a 91' Mitsubishi and a 01' cavalier. His pretty beauty queen car was sitting in the short bus section of the parking lot. God help who ever dented or scratched it, even touch it. Lyle would have them on the ground. One of the few things that he is protective of that aren't living is his car.

Building her from the ground up, he took his time getting the parts and sweetly taking care of her, nursing her back to her full potential. Now if only he could do something with that potential other than sit it in a parking lot where families in minivans and station wagons came to stay.

( Will was Will and Will loved food. )

Who: Hayden and Christian
When: Late afternoon
Where: Phonelines and Christian's house
Warning: Slightly NSFW

( Perfection )

Who: Dante, Seth & Tanya
Where: Dante's house/A club
When: Late evening
NSFW

Tommy had been bouncing off the walls for most of the day, thanks to the anticipation of spending the night with his dad. She'd packed his things - a change of clothes, his Spongebob blanket and a couple toys - and then dropped him off at Scott's around seven. She'd managed to avoid having to talk to Scott much, since Tommy was there and she knew there would be no time for serious discussion with their son around. Not to mention the fact that she knew if she argued with Scott, she wouldn't feel much up for going dancing, and damn if she'd let him ruin her evening.

Who: Madock and Jessalyn
When: Evening
Where: The river

Unlike her brother, Jessalyn didn't mind going out in the rain. She loved it, actually, and if she hadn't had Madock on the brain, she probably would have shifted earlier and gone running about the pack lands in the mud. But as it was, Madock was on her mind - as usual - and she hurried out of the house as the sky darkened and got into her car to drive over and see him. She texted him quickly on her way to make sure he would be up for company. want to see you :) are you up for company? we can go somewhere if you want. - <3 j

Madock was always up for company, especially when it was Jessalyn. Since asking a little time off from work, he'd been spending all his time sitting and thinking and that definitely wasn't a good thing to be doing at a time like this. Hearing his phone notify him of a text, he sent one back.

I wanna see u too. I can be downstairs in a few if u wanna go for a drive or something.

( then bite me. maybe we'll get lucky )

Who: Dorian and Aiden
Where: Nevermore
When: Evening

He'd found it. He'd found a spell that could locate Rhys. At least, in theory. There were lots of things that should work, but hadn't. His mother had tried every form of scrying she was capable of, but couldn't get a hold on him. She knew he was alive, but everything else came out fuzzy and unclear, giving Dorian absolutely nothing to work with. She was frustrated that her abilities had failed her, but what it told Dorian was that they were dealing with a professional. Some two-bit piece of trash blood hunter wouldn't have the forethought to put up that kind of barrier. With that in mind, he knew just about anything could be blocked, but it was still worth trying.

Pulling out his phone, Dorian called the one person he knew he could trust to help him in this situation. Aiden said he'd do whatever he could to help. Well, now Dorian had a plan, and he needed help. "Come on, pick up," Dorian muttered as the phone rang. He wanted to get started on this now. Time was just ticking by the longer they waited.

Who: Connie and Kitty
Where: The theater!
When: Midday or so

Apparently by going home early the day before-- well, "early"; he'd left a little after noon!-- Connie had missed one very important thing: Kitty was there. Also auditioning-- apparently for the witch, if what she sang when she went up the next day for her call-back was any indication.

A siren playing a witch in a musical. God, the irony.

All of that meant, of course, he needed to talk to her. After she went up to sing, he waited backstage in the hopes that she'd consent to talking with him. He bounced on his heels hopefully, tail twitching this way and that.

Who: Ransom and Jessalyn
Where: Their house
When: Afternoon

Though he wasn't especially close to any of those that were missing, Ransom couldn't help but feel like he should be actively searching, like he should be doing something rather than sitting around. He didn't know why some had been taken while other's hadn't, especially after the evidence of blood hunters had been reported on the news. It wasn't like they didn't want weres: they had taken Katie. Maybe werewolves were too obviously dangerous. He didn't know why the choices had been made, since Claire's powers weren't all that obvious and he didn't even know some of the others. It just didn't seem right-- probably because it wasn't-- and he couldn't sit still. The rain wasn't helping. Ransom had skipped out of work because of it.

Ransom knocked on Jessalyn's door, waiting outside. He was worried about Claire, about how Madock was handling all this, and therefore how Jessalyn was holding up. He also wanted a bit of company, but was unwilling to leave the house to go see Charlotte with the rain coming down outside. "Hey Jess, it's me," he called from outside. She'd know his voice.

Who: Justin and Squid
Where: Pond near Justin's house.
When Early afternoon


Justin rubbed his eyes as he sat, listening to his dogs playing nearby, wrestling over a brand new toy. it never mattered that when he bought treats for his pets he got each something. A lot like children, they all wanted what the others had, and more often then not just fought over each one at a time until everything was destroyed.

justin didn't care, though, he had his dog whistle and was working on a sketch of his sweet Alex. She'd up and vanished with barely a word, which was hard since she was going to originally help him talk to the gray witch about getting a fix, and now Justin had to hand deliver a letter to get his message across. It was a terrifying prospect for the shy man; going to a complete stranger for help when he couldn't even ask with his own voice. just stand there like an idiot and hope the police weren't called on him.

But for now, it was just the mental image of his Alex, laying down on the bed, her hair splayed and lips curled in a smile. It was easy for him to remember that bewitching smile, so he was already inking the work as the sun warmed him and he tried to let the peaceful feeling of being outdoors ease the discomfort of being without the girl he'd barely known a week.

Who: Seth & Dante
Where: Dog-Ink - Dante's Place
When: Shortly after the rain begins and long, long after.
Warning: NSFW

( Fast friends. Male sluts. Whatever. )

Who: Tayne and Brian
When: Early evening
Where: Back to the scene of the kidnapping crime

For the second night in a row, Tayne drove his truck a couple hours outside town to where the teenagers had been ambushed and kidnapped, joining the rest of the group of volunteers and police in "night-shift" search parties. Tonight he was glad to have gotten away, even if it was raining; he was feeling very uncertain about Johan at the moment, and being slept on and pouted at and told to lose his number for the rest of the night did not appeal.

He parked the big truck, rolled down his window-- so he didn't have to get out in the goddamn rain-- got his assignment from the local cop-- taking said big truck out along a dirt road a few miles down the road-- who was organizing the search pattern and was assigned a partner. Everyone was doing the buddy system, at night, just in case.

"Hey, Brian! Here's your ride!" the cop called, waving somebody over to join them.

( Geez, how many of you ARE there?? )

Who: Day and Christian
Where: The house
When: Morning

In the battle between shower and brother in Day's mind, brother finally won out, and he knocked on Christian's door before getting himself clean for the day. He needed to make sure Christian knew about all this, and, he thought vaguely, he might invite him along if there was a spell cast today or tomorrow.

But for that, Christian needed to be awake.

( Of course I did. )

Who: Jovie and Becky
When: Evening
Where: A cocktail bar in Ann Arbor

It had been such a busy morning at Kalos, that Jovie had nearly forgotten she had plans with the mall girl - Becky - that night. She might have canceled, but dressing up and going out to some place that wasn't that dingy bar Alex worked at was too tempting to pass up. So she called Becky that afternoon to finalize plans, thankful that the girl didn't back out as Jovie assumed she might. Since she had every intention of going to a nice cocktail bar, Jovie dressed in a knee length red dress, wore her hair down over her shoulders and didn't go overboard on the make up. She wasn't looking to get hit on, or pick up any men, but you never knew, right?

Driving her SUV to Becky's home that evening, Jovie got out of the car, not wanting to be rude and honk for the girl. She knocked a few moments later, praying that she wouldn't have to send Becky back in to change into something acceptable.

( It'd be her good deed for a year )

Who: Kikuya and open
Where: Kikuya's condo @ Cherryblossom Place
When: Afternoon

The rain bashed against the window, showing no sign of dying out. Kikuya watched it intently as she sat on the floor, surfing the web on her brand new laptop. Her coffee table and couches were still packed away in immense boxes, tucked away in a corner for the time being, which explained her current spot on the floor. Slumped over, she heavily rested her cheek in her palm while trying to decipher a majority of the websites she came across. She had came across a local, online newspaper, but it didn't help that her broken English couldn't comprehend the complex titles.

( Words are serious business. )

Who: Yulia and Open
What: looking for free furniture
When: Saturday June 13, afternoon

( Just rolling along )
