Day 372 | Closed Video to Jack | Open Action
[Video to Jack]

[She'd forgotten her umbrella when she walked out. Whatever. Martha certainly wasn't going to turn around and go get it. She should calm down before calling Jack. But she doesn't follow that line of reasoning either. The video of her is clearly one pissed off, wet Martha.]

Anything. You'd do anything to get him back. Bastard!

---

[Open Action]

After hanging up with Jack, Martha looked around. She hadn't been paying attention to where she was going, but found herself in Sector 0. Seemed she'd been walking laps. She hadn't felt this off balance in a while. She thought about going to yell at Spike too, though that honestly wouldn't make any of this better. No, perhaps she needed to go back to early in her time here when Oz had taught her meditation techniques.

The rain wasn't so helpful with this, so she made her way to the Tree Grove and found a tree with a decent overhang. It would keep her decently dry. Martha sat cross legged and closed her eyes. She forced her breathing to deepen, forced her mind to calm. The rain was had a more pleasant sound here. It added to the peace of the moment. In and out. In and out.

	[She gets a thoroughly startled Jack, just hanging his coat up from having been to see Spike at the Blood Shack. He didn't have an umbrella either, so his hair and face are wet from the rain. He gapes at the screen, open-mouthed.] Martha? Are you all right? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Re: Video notrosesshadow 2016-04-20 08:33 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah! Sure. Perfectly all right. [Hear the sarcasm dripping from her voice] Seems congratulations are in order. You, Ianto, and Spike. [She practically spits Spikes name as she says it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He blinks. He wasn't expecting this.] You don't sound all right. What's up? [Still not getting what's at the root of her upset. In fact, he finds himself wondering if she's still suffering from something hanging over from the day before last.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Martha assumes he's playing innocent, which makes her even madder.] I could forgive Ianto sleeping with Spike. Once. But a blue band arrangement? A fucking blue band arrangement between the three of you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foreverjack 2016-04-20 09:09 pm UTC (link)
	It seemed like the best way to proceed. [He's a little wary, now, because he's getting that she actually is upset, but not really why. Or why so much.] Really, what's the problem, Martha? I thought you'd be relieved we managed to find a solution! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notrosesshadow 2016-04-20 09:19 pm UTC (link)
	[She pulls aside her collar to show of the lovely scar that graced her neck thanks to Spike.] Like you said, you'd do anything to get him back. I guess my quaint 21st Century sensibilities just didn't allow me to think you might possibly get in bed with a man who tried to kill your best friend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He bites his lip and manages to stop himself pointing out that Spike killed him too - twice - and bit Ianto too. She's not as accustomed to such things as they are, or certainly he is, anyway. Even so, this still feels like an over-reaction, to him.]

It's nothing to do with your 21st century sensibilities! We re-souled him, Martha. He's not the same man who bit you.

[He's even more certain of this after having just talked, at length, to Spike about it.]

[Martha didn't know about Spike killing Jack, though if she had, she would have used it as more evidence that this was a really terrible idea.]

So that just sweeps it all under the rug! It's okay that I almost died. It was someone different that attacked me.

[She stops to take a deep breath and forces her voice to quiet.]

I get it. Ianto's important to you. Spike's important to Ianto. Thus Spike's important to you. As you said. Anything to get Ianto back.

My feelings don't even enter into the equation... so I'm taking myself out of the equation.

	Oh for goodness sake, Martha, stop being so childish! Of course it's not okay that you almost died. It was because of that, and his other attacks, that we put the soul back into him! But it's not okay to punish someone for something someone else did in their body, either. He is not the same person he was then. He wouldn't attack you now, or anyone!

	He should learn not to bug people (least of all strangers who might react who-know-how) but he can't resist, really. Which is why the teenager wanders over with a smile. "Meditating?" Although if she is, and if she is good at it, she might not even hear him, who knows. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Re: action notrosesshadow 2016-04-21 10:09 pm UTC (link)
	Meditating? Yes. Good at it? Hahahaha. Martha opened her eyes and regarded the teen smiling at her. She allows a small, though sad smile to tug at her lips. "Sort of. Though I think those who actually practice it regularly might take issue with me calling it meditation." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He could not know before seeing for himself, could he? But he did enjoy pestering people so it would not have been a problem. "With that level of skill at it, I'm sure that they would. But then people take offsense so easily." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: action notrosesshadow 2016-04-26 07:21 pm UTC (link)
	That cuts a little closer to home. Was that what she was doing here? "I suppose they do. What brings you out on a rainy day such as today?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	“A little rain has never hindered me from taking a stroll when I have felt like it.” Though he was mostly out to visit places where he could have a snack, or pet cats. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Clearly," she replies. She doesn't feel all that talkative and she's a little miffed at being interrupted for no good reason. Martha sighs before speaking up again. "You're unfamiliar to me. Did you arrive recently?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: action wisdomstar 2016-05-02 05:42 pm UTC (link)
	He never did care if he made people uncomfortable or annoyed or if he interrupted them. “Some days ago, although not with the most recent, ah, batch? So to speak.” (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Martha nods. "I suppose I've been paying less attention than I used to. I'm Martha then. Pleasure to meet you..." her voice trails off when she realizes she doesn't actually know who her interrupter is. Whether it actually is a pleasure is up for debate and possibly a little apparent in her tone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
