day 223 | i » video → open.
When I said I wanted to get out of Mystic Falls for a while, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind. Ruins of some ancient prison in Italy or China, maybe, but not underwater and in some alien dimension, or however the hell that's supposed to work. [ if he's getting the gist of this right. he's going by video game logic here. ]

And what happened to a trial by a jury of your peers? Is that not a thing on Planet X? Too human a concept for you? Is throwing eighteen-year-olds in prison for skipping a couple of classes back in high school [ and eradicating an entire vampire bloodline via staking finn mikaelson, but shhhh ] just something you do for fun around here?

[ just when things had calmed down and the world was returning to normal (or as normal as the world was capable of getting after everything that happened back home), this happens. it's just his luck, too. nothing ever stayed good for matt donovan. his life sucked, and it looks like graduating from high school meant it was only going to get suckier from here on out. ]

So much for the world tour.

	Well, not like a mega witch but I can do some spells. [Honestly, she's wondering if her affinity to magic has something to do with her mystical key-ness. Because not just everyone can perform spells.] Mostly I'm just a younger sister and sidekick... and sometimes not even that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I— [ know a witch. i did a spell once, because the ghost of my dead sister tricked me into doing it... ] That's kinda cool. Sidekick. I can relate to that. Even more to the not even that. [ matt donovan: only useful when they need someone to dagger an original or have their neck snapped. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think so. [A cute boy just said she was cool. She's going to smile now.] Anyway, I'm Dawn Summers. What's your name? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ oh, a smile! he can return a smile. ] It's Matt. Matt Donovan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt. I'd say welcome to the asylum but that implies insanity. And welcome to the prison implies we're all criminals. So! Just welcome? It's not as bad as it could be really. I mean... there's yummy food and a cool library. Always something to do. No prison cells. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Insanity would at least explain a few things. [ how ambiguous of you, matt. ] Food, I'm down for. Library, not so much. I was glad to leave that place behind when I got my diploma. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I know, lots to take in. Weird pocket dimension in the form of an underwater prison. Exploding brains and stuff -- exploding with information, I mean. Not literally exploding, not that I've seen so far anyway.

[Way to not make things better, Dawn. She mutters a quiet, awkward apology. She's gonna try and say something that actually helps now, okay?] There's a bowling alley, an ice skating rink and an arcade.

	Yow bowl? [ because that's a normal conversation topic. he doesn't want to talk about all that stuff that's flying right on over his head anymore. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	♦ video the_dawnster 2013-06-10 06:09 pm UTC (link)
	Not very well. My sister's really good at it though. She has excellent aim even with bowling balls. [Her sister is good at everything, actually.] I always live in the gutters. But... you? Do you bowl? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	♦ video stuck 2013-06-10 06:23 pm UTC (link)
	Oh yeah. I'm good at that sort of stuff. Sport stuff. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	♦ video the_dawnster 2013-06-10 06:33 pm UTC (link)
	Well the bowling alley is in sector two and there's also a baseball team or... teams, I mean since you're into sports. I spectate the sports. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	♦ video stuck 2013-06-10 11:17 pm UTC (link)
	Baseball? I am so down for baseball. [ matt, focus. you are in prison. join teams later, deal with the reality of your situation first. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	♦ video the_dawnster 2013-06-15 02:24 pm UTC (link)
	Lots of people are, it seems. I've never been very good at sports. I generally trip over my own feet and all sports equipment leads to my face... which doesn't make for fun times. I can support with the best of them though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maybe all you need is a few lessons. I'd be willing to help you work on your pitch and swing, if you wanted some pointers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	♦ video the_dawnster 2013-06-20 03:21 pm UTC (link)
	Okay but I'm warning you there's clumsiness and a lack of athletic ability on my part. I tried to learn to skateboard recently and it was epic fail. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's only failure when you're not having fun. As long as you can enjoy yourself, then it won't be a waste. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	♦ video the_dawnster 2013-06-21 01:53 pm UTC (link)
	You sound like a fortune cookie... or a self-help video of some kind. Luckily, I'm a fan of both. Okay, so once you get all settled in, there can be pitching and swinging... only in a more sporty butch kind of way than how I just said it. (Reply to this) (Parent)
