PARABOLICAL GRAFFITI

I guess there are worse places to be trapped on Holidays. Like Christmas in quarantine. Actually?...I almost miss that.


If I'm going to be stuck here a while, I think I'm going to need a better weapon. Just a gun doesn't cut it.

I'm getting Faith back. Tonight.

No, Sam. You're not coming. If I'm not alone, they'll kill her.

[Nathan, ABClaire, Sarah, Kennedy, and Fred]
Be ready, just after sunset. I'm going to meet them, and teleport Faith back as soon as I get close enough to touch her. I don't expect her to be in very good condition, so Claire, please have a syringe ready.

Fred, from what I heard, it seems like they managed to take her Slayer powers away. Can you see what we have to do to fix that?

Kennedy. You are not, I repeat, you are not to go after them. Or, for that matter, out patrolling on your own. I need you. You're the only Slayer I can count on right now.

...The last time I checked dead bodies weren't supposed to move. I'm starting to get the feeling this isn't going to be the Sunset Strip vacation that I asked for.

[ooc: Oh, nostalgia, how I love you. Also, Keaton!Batman FTW.]

This is all one giant death trap.

So who else is really happy they didn't dress up tonight?

I'm sure it's everywhere, but is the ground on fire where you are? Scads of nurses with insufficient amounts of clothing and facial features? Snow?

Redeeming point to this place. When your favorite hobby becomes a paycheck.

It's not often that I am incapable of coming up with a reason for a certain contextual situation but I am not an egotistical maniac and I can admit that this time, I am completely at a non-plus for answers. If anyone can explain what is going on with hard evidence then I am willing to be appreciative. Thank you.

Anyone else feel like keeling over?

There's something wrong with the water so cease and desist from...anything involving it.

And if anyone escaped gastrointenstinal wrath, Tums and a bottle of water? I'll owe a big favor. Main floor bathroom.

So, Jesus, what are your feelings on the Palsy?


[Filtered to Seeley Booth]
Are you alright?

It's come to my attention that King and Whistler have roommates. Yes, that's right, I know about the two of you. However, I'm interested not in the male. He's of little consequence. I've come to realize that possibly, this doctor living at their fire house would make a much better vampire than Whistler. She interests me.

Oh and King. I've come to realize, Danica didn't quite understand the potential in you. Then again why would she, doesn't exactly use her head for much more than somewhere to place those ridiculous hairstyles of hers. That's neither here nor there. However, I see the potential in you, to be great, powerful, lead armies. I might even let you keep Whistler as a pet. We'll be in touch.

Ah and Selene, don't think I've forgotten about you my sweet. Your dog amuses me. Does he really believe he can stop me? He's merely a mongrel that needs to be put to sleep. I'll be seeing you soon. The taste of you is rather.. addicting.

I think it's time for a little confession.

Don't you?

Does anyone else think that Bangkok Dangerous should be the name of a porn not a Nick Cage movie?

Vampires have a sick sense of humor

Not funny.

Ughhh.

As much I loathe dismissing the topic of the “villain of the week” in this forum, I must post about another subject because my curiosity has taken the best of me.

What was your occupation before your residence in Los Angeles? You can answer truthfully or outrageously lie about it. Certainly, none of us shall ever know the difference between facts and fiction.

Drake's attacked someone, I won't explain to you how she survived, it's too complicated. Problem is, I only have a limited amount of weapons on me and I don't feel comfortable leaving where I am without back up.

I'm at St. Vibianas. Someone come get me, we'll get back to the house and start planning. I'm safe where I am, I'm assure you. But we can't waste anymore time.

Since the FBI seem to have lost a few brain cells.

Guess I'm looking for work. Name's Grace Hart, formerly of the FBI, credentials are extensive.

I am not happy about this

Couldn't sleep last night. Kept dreaming about Ronald McDonald. I hate clowns.

If anyone needs me, I'm not gonna be around much today. I've got a hot tip on Lilith and I'm following it up. I feel good about this. Early start, seemingly reliable source...

We'll see.

Thanks again for the help with the...stuff.

I've been practicing. I can float small stuff for a couple seconds without losing grip. Pencils, pennies, socks. Stuff like that.

In short, it's a work in progress. I guess being pissed off all the time has it's advantages after all.

Room for one more?

My partner just showed up here via the same time warp I did.

I'm going to start wearing a name tag, dorkiness be damned.

This has been a very slow day for some reason. I suggest a game, as they usually go over so well. Name the movie the following quotes are from - bonus points if you can name who said them!

( the quotes )

No cheating by looking on the internet for them. Or using superpowers. And feel free to throw in some of your own movie quotes to be guessed!

So, are there any other paranormal monster hunters out there? I'm thinking I need to make some new friends.

[filtered to Booth]Um yeah, remember how I was saying that I was beginning to think that wasn't King. Guess what.

If this is LA, I'm going back to Jersey.

By show of hands, who here is a geek. Don't be shy, step up to the plate.

You know, Battleship has got to be the lamest board game ever invented. Ever. Candyland totally puts it to shame.

I am so over you.

And that dress that you wore the other night? It totally didn't make you look slutty at all.

[Filtered to Logan]
If you hurt her, I'll rip off your sideburns.

Which will also be painful for me. Because I kind of worship you.

[Filtered to Rogue]
Thanks.

Is there a Demonology for Dummies? Not an actual book but something for a newbie to this supernatural to catch up on? Probably a stupid question but since I can't help talking back to creatures three times my age, better safe then sorry.

Who is Drake?

[/filter]

So... I see there's quite a few hunters around. I'm only looking for one though. Goes by the name of Whistler, anyone seen her?

Uh, has anyone seen Kathy?

For those of you who don't know who that is: little girl, Irish, named Katherine McAvera.

So, has anyone seen her?

I couldn't possibly have found a city darker than Gotham. No way.

Ah, the beauty of irony. Interestingly, while I've been positively dying to have my voice back, now I have nothing to say.

Except, maybe, what the hell?

You never fully appreciate sarcasm until you can't use it anymore to express extreme annoyance with a situation.

What the hell was up with the flappy things in straight jackets?

*insert maniacal laughter*

Oh..this just gets better and better!! It's been blissfully peaceful and I'm loving it!!! Stupid mortals!

I am not a fictional character.

I am not a fictional character.

Someone please tell me that I'm not a stupid fictional character.

And if so. What the fuck kind of obsession is WINCEST?

I don't have much by way of dramatic confessions.

I was kicked out of boarding school for putting a teacher's car on the roof with my boyfriend's father's crane, because he accused me of cheating on a test. It was there for two months before it was found.

The thought of being a giant mutant turtle and wearing a ninja mask confuses me. Clearly you are a massive talking turtle. Wearing an orange eye bandana is not going to leave people wondering who you are.

It is in fact possible to bounce a quarter off of Nathan's ass.

I think Greg has lovely eyes, but every time I think too hard on the subject, I see my mother-in-law gazing adoringly into them and feel mildly ill. Also, when I think of Spike, I see him gazingly lovingly into my mother-in-law's eyes, and think they both probably deserve it.

My two sons just asked someone out in the hall what happens 'When a man loves a woman' for the fifth time today, and I am ready to muzzle them both.

I want Seeley Booth's oreos.

This being unable to lie, only tell the truth thing is a lot better than getting stoned as a side effect of some antibiotic concoction. At least I'm not skipping around making an ass out of myself.

LA definitely was not this interesting the last time I was here.

I hate it here. I liked it better when there were fewer people in the Hyperion, because I feel so bloody useless compared to everyone else now. I used to be able to help with stuff, but now there are all these people with abilities who do it. I hate not being able to do anything, and as nice as it is I hate the fact I'm the only one in the hotel who has someone assigned to look after them. I really want to leave. I don't think anyone would really care if I did. They'd just say they care because they're the "good guys" and they're supposed to say that kind of thing. Which really makes them bad, because they are liars right?

And I kind of want a boyfriend, even though I'm afraid he'll turn out to be a user and a "baby doesn't fit into my plans so I'm leaving you completely and utterly screwed" like Aaron's father. Honestly, what type of a asshole do you have to be to do that?! Are all men like that? My dad left when he realized a love child wouldn't work out with his career anymore, and my ex-boyfriend left when he realized that a baby would ruin his career too. Is that all you men care about!?

I didn't even want to have a baby. I wanted to have an abortion. And from what I did to my mum I didn't think I was suited for the job. But he convinced me that the baby would be good for us, and then he up and leaves me! So I was going to give up Aaron for adoption. But the family never turned up. I kind of hope my ex dies a painful lonely death.

I'm so frustrated with everything! I'd rather be stuck at home serving greasy fish and chips, and being hit on by toothy creeps for the rest of my miserable existence, then be here anymore.

I'm lonely too. Really lonely. The people I cared about are either gone or don't remember me. Everyone has someone but me and I hate it.

I also think I used to have a crush on Angel.



Why am I saying these things?! Oh God!

I will kill, with my bare hands, every man who has propositioned or hit on or looked at or offered anything to my wife.

EDITED: Except for the cripple. I'm just gonna drop him for real this time. From as high up as I can get in the air.

Okay. Who out there can't stop telling the truth?
