day 225 | xiii ❧ potluck mingle!

[ this is her first time doing one of these without gran, and something she thought was going to be difficult for those very reasons is actually rather therapeutic, heartwarming -- a glance back at her roots, back when she was just adele stackhouse's weird granddaughter and not that fae who mingles with vampires. sookie contributes a few dishes from her gran's old recipes, along with something lafayette taught her to make. she's got all the tables in this part of trois park covered with checkered table clothes of varying colors, lots of plastic silverware, paper plates, cups, and napkins at the ready, and a stack of picnic blankets folded up on one of the benches for those who wish to sit on the grass instead of at a table. sookie even brought a long a mesh bag full of sports equipment -- or rather, a couple frisbees, a football, soccer ball, basketball, and even some hacky sacks. (she's not the sports type, but jason would always be off playing something with the other guys.)

hopefully she didn't leave anything out. hopefully this will help cheer everyone up some, both the new arrivals and those still dealing with the days they spent in that other prison. ]

[Zatanna's lost count of the time she's spent in prison. Certainly more than a month. Probably close to two by now, if not more. And the one consistent thing in all the coming and going and insanity was that Robin had been there with her, from the very start. The day she arrived, fresh off the loss of her father. He'd been there.]

[Now he wasn't. And it sucked.]

Yeah. Tell me about it.

	Look, uh... I know you don't know me or nothin', but if you need to talk..? Sometimes it's easier spillin' your guts to a stranger. We're all in th' same boat here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You lose a boyfriend to inter-dimensional shenanigans recently too? [Despite the bitterness she felt inside, the question came out surprisingly casual. Almost humorous, like her usual sarcastic quips. She even smiled. Faintly.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-03 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	Not yet... but I guess it could happen any day. [ He meets that faint smile with one of his own. Lopsided. Pained. ] I think most of us that've been here for more than a week lost someone dear to 'em by now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How long've you been here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-04 07:54 pm UTC (link)
	It's been about... jeeze, almost three months now. [ 78 days, which is close enough really. ] How 'bout you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've lost count by now. Probably a little over two months, give or take. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Guess that makes us veterans, huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-07-05 06:41 pm UTC (link)
	That makes it sound like we've been through a war or something. [Then again...] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-06 03:11 pm UTC (link)
	Well, uh... [ Shifting. ] It's not quite that bad. Not that bad at all, actually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-07-06 08:41 pm UTC (link)
	Except from the possessions. And the ghosts. And the giant tentacles. And the wardens. And the kissing bots... [She paused. Thinking back. A grin appeared.] ...actually, no, I take it back. The kissing bots were pretty cool. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-07 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	You, uh... you really think so? [ Unsure... unless. ] Did somethin' good happen? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-07-08 11:25 am UTC (link)
	[Not that good. But pretty good.] Well, I got to kiss my boyfriend for the second time. After we reenacting a chase scene from some over-the-top action movie. Granted, I also had to kiss, like, half my team, plus one of my best friends under the dome...but, all in all, could've been worse. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-08 07:15 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, it uh... this time 'round it wasn't so bad. I guess it can be pretty awkward, dependin' on who you get stuck with. [ And who finds out. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-07-23 07:26 pm UTC (link)
	...personal experience, I'm guessing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-23 11:09 pm UTC (link)
	Somethin' like that. I mean, I don't mind kissin' but it's hard when uh... when you're already with someone. And they get jealous over nothin'. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-07-24 12:47 pm UTC (link)
	[That would...definitely kind of suck. A lot. Especially if it literally wasn't your fault. Those bots could be pushy.] If they had been real kisses, I'm sure Robin might've gotten a little more upset than he did. But he knows none of us really had a choice in the matter. Besides, he was probably more put out that I got to kiss more girls than he did. [/joking] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He makes an amused noise. ] Helix got madder at me for kissin' a boy... ain't like it meant somethin', but just because we're forced to it that don't mean it has to be horrible. Friendly kisses are okay, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-07-25 01:28 am UTC (link)
	I've never had any problem with it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-25 10:49 am UTC (link)
	Lucky. [ Lopsided smile. ] Sorry 'bout your boyfriend... who knows? Maybe he'll come back? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-07-25 01:28 pm UTC (link)
	Is it bad that I sort of really wish that would happen sometimes? [This was prison, after all.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-26 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	[ Shakes his head. ] I don't think so. I mean... some of us are even better off here than we would be at home. It ain't a bad place to be, 's only natural to want our loved ones here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-07-27 12:53 am UTC (link)
	[She shifts a little awkwardly at the "L" word. Being all of fourteen years old, and in her first real relationship...not quite the sentiment she had been going for. A little too committed for her just yet.] Yeah. Right. Though I...uh...would probably prefer the both of us being back at home, too. That would be even better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-07-27 12:33 pm UTC (link)
	[ "Loved ones" for him encompasses a lot of people. Family, friends, boyfriends or girlfriends, acquaintances... give it a week and a few more conversations and she'd be lumped in there too. ] All th' more reason to make sure you can get back then, huh? You got family back home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[A flash of pain shoots through her eyes, and she averts them in hopes Aiden won't see.] Not anymore. It was me and my dad for a while...but he's gone now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
