Light of May ::: an original roleplay

Who: Lex & Salvatrix
Where: Ad Gustum
When: Night

( 'There's a vamper in your office.' )

WHO: Maddie & Lex
WHAT: Uh. Oh.
WHERE: Heme
WHEN: Night

There were bad ideas and Bad Ideas. Going to Heme alone was a bad idea, but going alone without telling anyone where she was going escalated that into Bad Idea. Fully knowing that Santiago would have had a loud and angry lecture prepared for her if she told him she was going to Heme again, Maddie had decided to simply...avoid the telling bit entirely. And ever since her brief stint as an earth elemental, they'd actually been learning to get along better. She hated to ruin it all again with something the llama would say that would piss her off and have her saying things that would cause another fight between her and Santiago. After work, instead of going home and/or checking in, she instead dabbed on a fresh coat of lipstick and headed over to Heme.

( These wounds won't seem to heal. )

Who: Angeline and Lex
Where: Ad Gustum, Angeline's office
When: Early evening

It had been quite a while - an eternity to her standards - since Angeline had had a pet to play with and torture. Ever since the goat boy had died she'd been too busy to pressure her sister and Lex into finding her someone else, especially with Alistair in the mix. But Alistair wasn't as much fun, seeing as he could heal, and Angeline wanted to get to know races she had little practical knowledge of, she'd decided. It might be more fun, and it might also help her progress where magic was concerned. She had told her sister to send Lex her way, and she was sure Domina had gotten right on it. Now all Angeline had to do was wait.

In the meantime she was sitting at her desk reading up on some black magic, pretending that her boyfriend's lack of attention wasn't bothering her immensely, and making plans for Homecoming in her head. She'd be damned if she wasn't going to look her very best that night. Whether she won or not - the latter being absolutely insane of course - she would look great so that everyone though she'd deserved it either way. Of course those who didn't already were either insane or mentally deficient, but it didn't hurt to remind people every once in a while.

For Katsuo and Lex

Who: Lex and Salvatrix
Where: Ad Gustum
When: Early morning

( Crash crash burn. )

Who: Lex and a couple unnamed NPCs
Where: Children’s Hospital of Michigan, then an unknown location
When: Ridiculously early in the morning and then throughout the day
Warning: Not safe for life. I’m really serious. I squicked myself out. I thoroughly apologize to anyone this may offend. This is just fiction.

( Enjoy the ride. )

Who: Lex and Domina
When: Late afternoon
Where: Ad Gustum, Domina’s office

Despite all this angelic bullshit in the news, Domina was in one hell of a good mood. Both her parents had been stunned nearly stupid with her announcement of Ad Gustum’s latest employee, and best of all? She was pretty sure she had detected a bit of jealousy in her mother at having met the demon first. Something had ruffled the woman’s feathers, and that meant Domina was having an awesome day. She was in such a good mood that she was actually feeling generous. When she had a free moment, she sent for Lex. She had the most wonderful idea.

( Dis gun be good. )

Who: Lex and several NPCs
Where: London, England
When: Fall of 1925
Warning: It’s Lex


( You know you’ve got it coming. )

Who: Lex, Val, and an unlucky NPC
Where: Streets of Ann Arbor
When: Late evening
Warning: Violence and gore

( I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme. )

Who: Jasper, Kitty, and Lex
Where: Streets of Scarlet Oak
When: Evening
Warning: Violence

( You think I love you but it ain't true. )

For Kieron and.....this

Who: Domina, Lex, and Tanith
When: Early afternoon
Where: Ad Gustum
NOTE: This was supposed to go up on the July 26th gameday, but our placeholder seems to be... lost. -_-

When Ancilla had delivered the news, Domina had calmly told her to summon Lex and Tanith. When she was alone, it took every ounce of control not to throw a temper tantrum of epic proportions.

Amazingly enough, it never crossed her mind to be afraid. A Moriarty needn't fear anything or anyone. At the very least, everyone from that dungeon would have a spell on them to make them incapable of finding this place again. But she was still angry. This slight was unacceptable.

Remain calm, Mistress, Hades urged. Do what needs to be done, and take your anger out on something worthy later.

Oh, yes. That went without saying. Something was going to die tonight. A precious few of the slaves had already been rounded up. And they would all have to be made examples of. It was what any proper Roman enthusiast would do.

And she would enjoy it.

( This shit is not okay. )

Who: Garrick and Lex
Where: London, England
When: Evening on December 29th, 1940


( 8+ months in the making, people. Amie, I owe you a cake. )

Who: Garrick and Lex
Where: The Old English Armory
When: Evening

( The sound of a fight. Father has spoken. )

Who: Val and Lex
Where: Ad Gustum
When: Late Night

( But I let you in just to break this heart. )

Who: Lex and a couple NPCs
Where: Ad Gustum
When: Midday, something like that. He doesn't know, he lost track
Warning: Lex is not himself... at all

( Grab some popcorn and soda, because this shit is about to get real. )

Who: Hedda and Lex
When: 11:30pm-ish
Where: Ad Gustum or there abouts

( Nothing. )

Who: Cleo and Lex
Where: Out and about in town
When: Midnight-ish

( The moon in the blade shimmered like a jewel. )

WHO: Lex and Via
WHERE: On the streets of Scarlet Oak
WHEN: 10:30 pm


Sylvia Cohen was born in 1915, which meant that when WWII began, she was 24 years old. Having grown up in the Bronx, New York, Via spent her twenties in Paris, France. This meant that poor old American Jew Sylvia Cohen was in the wrong place at the wrong time. After she escaped she relocated to London, England where a team of people were fighting to bring down Adolf Hitler. This was where Via met Lexington Bostwick. He was possibly the most vile man she’d ever met in her entire existence, but since she was a new vampire, Via was not very confident in herself and she looked up to Lex who had been older and wiser than her in more ways than one. She soon understood that there was nothing that she would ever want to look up to that man for as he was the most arrogant and misogynistic man she’d ever had the misfortune to know.

( You said I've been fighting for your honor but you wouldn't understand )

Who: Jezebelle and Lex
Where: Ad Gustom
When: Late Afternoon

Jezebelle was not one to forgive and forget, but she was willing to push differences aside when it suited her. When it came to blood, there were only so many reliable sources, and she'd been neglecting one in particular due to a rather violent last run-in. If Kieron had come through with several bottles of product, she might not have been knocking on Ad Gustom's door, but as it was she needed more than the human blood hunter could provide. All it took was swallowing her pride and hoping that Lex wouldn't attack her on site. True, it was against the rules of their house, but when did the Shades follow their own rules?

( what would you do? )
