Tainted Springs

Who: Tony DiNozzo and open
What: Tony feels a little depressed.
When: Saturday afternoon
Where: The park?
Rating: TBD

Tony sighed as he went to sit at the bench in the park. It was almost Christmas and he had nothing to give to his wife, his kids or even his wife's younger sister. At least he hadn't gone out and bought himself a drink. The teenage version of his eldest daughter would at least be happy with that. He just didn't know what to do with himself lately. Perhaps it was a midlife crisis or something the like. Even the best men could get that, he had heard.

He had thrown himself at his work, safe for a little vacation he took Angie on around her birthday. He liked that vacation, but afterwards he still threw himself at his work. And that was difficult in a town with as little crime as theirs seemed to have. So he sighed again. Perhaps he should've taken the little ones along, but he had thought it better to leave them at the house. He didn't want to expose them to the mood he was in anymore than necessary...

Who: Cormac McLaggen and open
What: Arriving
When: Saturday
Where: Somewhere in Town
Rating: TBD

Cormac apparated to the town where he had recently decided to enroll in college. He wanted to have something to fall back on when he could no longer play Quidditch. Sure there was the Ministry of Magic where he could work for the Department of Magical Games and Sports. He was sure he could get in, but paperpushing was not something he wanted to do. Besides he was no Ludo Bagman. So he had opted for a sports management course. He could own clubs, he could coach clubs... There were always places where he could do that after all.

So here he was. He was ready for the town, but he didn't know whether the town was ready for him. He hadn't seen a single gorgeous girl yet.

Who: Alec and Faith
What: A little bit of one on one
Where: Faith's townhouse
When: Afternoon-nightish
Rating: R; language and sexual content

Alec was satisfied. Something he hadn't been in a really long time. Alec managed to pull himself to his feet and crash onto her bed, which still had no sheets. Alec mumbled something incoherent as Faith stepped into the bathroom for her shower. Alec wanted nothing more than to get up and follow her into the shower, but he was still reeling from the intense workout he had just had. He couldn't wait to do it again...he knew he would probably be sore, even transgenic muscles got sore after a workout that was that intense.

What: Shopping
Where: Food City
When: Afternoon
Rating: R; language and sexual content

Tilting her head up, nose twitching, breathing in she inhaled the first signs of fall, signs only her keen sense of smell detected. Memories assaulted the former felon as she for the moment allowed her self to be lost. The moment fleeting, she put her keys into her pocket, jingling lightly as they brushed against each other.

For one more brief moment she stood there as if she were any other girl, but she wasn't and she had things to do, and it was about time she made some decisions. Unpacking not on her top ten things to do on this day, she couldn't avoid filling the empty fridge at her place. Debating between a cart and a basket, she opted for the latter, knowing all too quickly she'd be bored with her surroundings.

Why she always chose a 'Hot Pocket,' as her comfort food, she didn't know. They always took her back to those final days in Sunny 'D' when she finally began to feel a part of things. Granted it was a small part, but it was a beginning at least for the former felon.

Long fingers opened the freezer door, keen eyes read labels; spider senses kicking in she turned on heel at the sound of the footstep.

Who: Chrys Warrington and open
Where: the park
When: Afternoon

Chrys had finished his day at the bank a little early. So he decided to take a walk through the park and just sit on a bench and read the local paper a bit before going home. He wondered whether he could take the twins to the park sometime. Feed the ducks and things. He doubted there was a giant squid in this lake. It made him think of home and his old school. And how his children would probably never go to Hogwarts...

Who: Narcissa, Edward and Lil Gray
What: interaction and spending time together
Where: At the pool behind the house
When: Evening
Why: Because Narcissa wants to be with Edward and Lil Gray

Narcissa was feeling very happy and relaxed as she sat by the pool drinking an ice cold lemonade that she had made. And it was a very nice evening to be spending it with the people she cared about most next to her family. As she looked around her she could not help but feel slightly surprised at how much she had missed Edward and Gray She figured they would have figured that out, but she was just glad that she was able to spend a warm evening with Them. And seeing them for more than a few minutes was the highlight of her day, as well as watching little Gray have fun too. She felt happy that she adored him as much as her son Draco. She placed her glass on the table and let her head fall back slightly as she closed her eyes. The warm air felt nice and she was actually debating on diving in the water since it looked so inviting. She laid her hand on her face as she watched the scene before her.

Who:Jenny and Giles
What:Breakfast
When:Morning
Where:Giles’ apartment

The ebony haired gypsy stretched lazily in the bed; laying there she had to force herself to get up. The smell of fresh bacon and coffee wafted into the guest room. Everyday she’d made him breakfast as a way to thank him. Since her return Jenny suffered from the occasional migraine has she had the night before. Worried, Giles called a physician friend who met them at the hospital. A shot of Demerol lulling Jenny to sleep, waking a few hours later; unfortunately still a bit high from the shot.

Defenses down, she was a bit more demonstrative with her actions. As they talked her hand would brush against his, relaxed her inhibitions were down. Aware enough to not cross a line, she found herself flirting, for her; it hadn’t been long at all since she’d told him she loved him. For him, it had been a lifetime; additionally Jenny had not aged, where Giles had. Still ruggedly handsome, Jenny resembled a trophy wife, the looks of admiration were lost on Jenny, if Giles noticed; he remained silent.

She’d fallen asleep against his shoulder, she smiled a little that he put her in the bed. Immediately she wondered how heavy she was.

Oh the smells from the kitchen called her downstairs.

Padding across the floor on bare feet, Jenny called to Giles. “England something smells delicious,” she complimented him as she entered the kitchen. “I don’t think you’ve ever cooked for me before,” and it was true, they’d never really dated like a normal couple. But then normal didn’t describe them, not that it ever did.

“About last night,” she began ....

Who: Angel and Faith
What: Getting reacquainted
When: Late Night
Where: Town
Status: Incomplete

So far, it hadn't done much good. Going out. Trying to help people. Whatever was going on in this town wasn't making it easy. But Angel wasn't going to stop trying to do what he needed to do. It was a distraction as much as anything, kept his mind off the past. Sure, they'd brought down Wolfram and Hart, but at what cost? He'd lost so many people.

Angel stood still, listening. He could hear the sounds of traffic in the distance. Closer, he heard people: laughing, talking, making toasts and ordering another round. It reminded him of a life centuries ago. It only made him feel more cut off.

At the last second he heard footsteps close by. Human. Feminine, but strong. Slayer strong. He recognized them and turned to see a familiar face. "Faith." A shadow of a smile came onto his face.

Who: Sookie, Eric and anyone else
What: Her first visit to Fangtasia
When: Sunset
Where: Fangtasia
Rating: NC-17, R, or X - it's Eric!
Status: incomplete, open

For most creatures, the vampire Eric Northman was walking sex. From the moment the eye gazed upon him, the viewer was lost in those ice-blue eyes. Sad thing was this was before he’d compel anyone. As she walked toward Fantasia, the last rays of the sun cloud like fingers breaking through to lovingly touch the sweet dirt, little fingers looking as if they were scratching the sidewalk’s back.
The moments before Eric awoke were precious to her. The blond fairy had always been drawn to sunrise and moon rise, but never understood why. During this time, prickles of anticipation raced over her skin as each moment passed. Rarely did she want alone time from him, but it did happen she would want her space; she just never let him know.

Today, Sookie would see Fangtasia. Purposefully she’d kept away. Sookie Stackhouse was and opinionated Southern woman. Only with Eric did she keep some of her opinions to herself. In this Eric was a paradox. He lived in the best places, demanded the best and yet when it came to decorating a bar – well she never quite got the joke about fantasia.

Unaware how fetching she looked, she’d dressed in a short black cocktail dress, she wanted to look her best particularly she was known as “Eric’s” she wanted to make a good impression. He might chastise her for looking and smelling like dinner, but secretly he’d be proud.

The front door was unlocked, it groaned as she opened it. “Eric,” Sookie called knowing he was just now waking. She smiled at the muscular men restocking the bar. “I’m lookin’ for Eric,” the sweet drawl oozed from her lips.

Who: Jack and Kate
Where: Romantic Site
What: Can't You Guess
When: Mid-evening
Rating: TBD

Jack dropped by her desk, asking her to go out to dinner, also instructing her to take some time so they could have a ‘proper’ night out, as he put it. A frown crossed her pretty face, but she didn’t question it. She usually stayed and read when he was late with a surgery. There was something about their being together.

Once home she went up to their bedroom only to find a rose, an incredible dress, and a set of instructions.

Kate took her time getting ready, took the rose, and then walked out the door.

A shiny black limo was waiting; Kate climbed in thinking how romantic and uncharacteristic this was. It was long until they arrived at their destination. It was beautiful, like a fairytale. Kate hadn’t been working that hard, she made a mental note never to complain again.

There he was standing, arms crossed in front of him, the makings of a candlelit dinner behind him.candlelit dinner behind him.

Who: Queen Gorgo and King Leonidas
What: Reunion
Where: Home
When: Evening
Why: Because she misses him and I need to Post?

Over time, Gorgo learned to deal with the trappings of the world where she now lived. She did miss her mediation. Leonidas, ever in-tune to his wife, set aside a room in their house for Gorgo to practice the old ways, parts of her heritage she could never deny. This gift from the King of Sparta to his wife meant the world to her. Scheduling everything so they didn’t run into each other for two weeks; Gorgo spent time in prayer in cleansing and solitude.

Purposefully, she’d extended her mediation for another day so she could prepare herself for her King and husband. Spending the morning in a spa, so her skin glowed, pampering herself like the Queen she was she looked striking.

Secretly, she’d been taking cooking classes. She fried chicken that had been brined in salt water and then buttermilk. The chicken was so moist, you couldn’t resist it. “In here,” she called as she heard him opening the door.

Who: Willow and Mal
When: Afternoon
What: Just after shopping
Where: The house
Rating: TBD

Willow had never been to the store with someone that had to have just about everything before and she found that it was a bit tiring. The young woman was finding that she now understood why parents always looked so stressed when they had to grocery shop with kids in tow, it was because the kids would pull everything in to the cart in some sort of mix of excitement and just general desire. This understanding of a parents shopping nightmare had come from one shopping trip with Mal, though the first five minutes was quite amusing she was just happy that he seemed happy so that made up for all the insanity of the trip.

Willow found herself now in the kitchen for what was going to be some creative storage as she wasn't sure there was enough room for everything they had bought, but at least they had enough food to last a near lifetime.

Who: Claire, and Isaac with their children
What: Family time
Where: Painted Visions
When: Evening
Why: Because they can
Open: Just to those mentioned

Being in Isaac's art gallery always made Claire feel at home. Not that her curent home was not home to her, but this place felt close to her heart. Apart from the many paintings that Claire could stare at for hours on end, being with Anabella and their son Michael made Claire feel more happy than she had in her entire life. And that was where she was, in the back room with Anabella and Micahel. There was a smile on her face as she watched her children play and it seemed surreal at certian points that these children were indeed hers. And the fact that she was the one who Isaac chose, that surprised her sometimes, but it was obvious by the look in her face that she loved the life she chose despite the things that happened in the past. She tried not to think about that as she leaned back in her chair and looked up at the ceiling briefly before reverting her attention to her children. She knew Isaac would make his appearence before long.

Rating:pg
Status: incomplete

Caroline, sat in the park gazing at the moon. This was the longest she'd gong with a brain shift. At times she could call on a specific personality, Echo was strong, and determined to be the dominant one. Now she was trying to call on them at will. That skill could be very handy around Franklin Springs.

Caroline was restless, living in the tardis, they'd helped her with the debilitating headaches. She was restless, during those times she walked, particularly in the dark cool night.

Most women collected shoes, thanks to the Rossum Corp, she collected personalities.

Taking her feet out of her shoes, she wiggled her toes. Looking up in the sky, she followed a falling star, closing her lids, she made a wish.

The breeze was warm, the air, refreshing.

She smiled looking into the night sky.

Who: Katherine and Damon
What: Meeting
Where: In the town garden
Rating: TBD
Status: Closed

She'd been following the little breather for quite a while now. Why Stefan saved her was beyond her, until she too saw her. There had to be a reason for the look alike, that intrigued Katherine more than anything, the why.

Being uncharacteristically Katherine, she waited patiently; patiently until Elena left for that small southern town. That's when her patience ran out.

She began to haunt the girl in owl form first, and then she'd randomly appear on campus and in the grocery store.

The only thing missing was Damon.

Who: Echo and
What: Aftermath of running into Faith

Rating:PG-13
Status: Open

Her stomach was still churning at the thought of another ‘her.’ Echo had to know, to figure what Rossum was up to with this twin thing. At times her brain might scramble the personalities inside, but one thing she was sure, she didn’t have a twin.

Compared to a slayer, Echo wasn’t stealthy; it only took a minute for ‘her’ twin to be in her face, wanting to know why Echo followed her. It took even less time for Echo to realize one of them was an anomaly and that didn’t make her feel better either.

She sought out the nearest bar, went to the bathroom and lost her lunch. Seeing and talking to oneself was a bit upsetting. Taking the fresh strip out-of-her purse, she brushed her teeth, then blew in her hand and smelled. None of the previous stench was there.

A bit pale and confused, she sat at the bar and ordered a stiff one.
