| Who: Nic and Micah Where: The festival When: Evening While Nic was glad Micah had been the one to win him at the auction, he wasn’t sure what to make of the fact that no one else bid on him. Did that mean they all thought he was gay? Or that they assumed they were together? Or would they just assume Micah was gay? And did it even matter? He kept telling himself that it didn’t, that the person who won him was the he wanted to be with and screw the rest. He supposed he’d have to deal with whatever other people thought later. Right now, the only person who’s opinion really mattered was Micah’s. Coming down off the stage, Nic smiled at him, trying to push his nerves aside. He’d been looking forward to seeing him again since he left Micah’s house that morning. Now that he had him in front of him, he was all butterflies in the stomach again. ( Read more... ) | ||||||||

| Who: Liam and Darcy Where: The festival When: after the auction Darcy had Liam’s arm as she pulled him off the stage and towards the area to pay. Once she’d settled up, she was smiling at Liam again, tucking the movie tickets into her pocket. “So...I’m Darcy.” In case he didn’t know but she really hoped he knew. ( but unlike the others ) | ||||||||

| Who: Mannix and December Where: December's Porch When: Night After she got stitched up and a shot of antibiotics, December was sent home. She cleaned up the morgue, sweeping what was left of the vampire up and she stuck it in a jar to put in her office, then she was out the door. If anyone else died, they were going to have to wait until tomorrow. As she walked, she was surprisingly calm. That had happened. Being attacked by a vampire was a thing that actually went down. And she'd come out on top. She realized as she got closer to her house that she was going to do this. Serge was right. His whole 'purge' idea was the way to go. No, she wasn't going to take out Zania or Mannix, but if there was other shit out in the night that was going to fucking up and attack and kill people? Well they might just have to go through her. First on her list tomorrow was shopping. And testing out if crosses worked against vampires. ( Read more... ) | ||||||||

| Who: Eli and Corey Where: The festival When: Immediately after the auction Eli knew Corey was uncomfortable coming up on stage and he didn’t blame her. He didn’t like being up there either. The faster they could get off, the better, and once he was out of the spotlight he gave her a little smile. “Thanks for bidding on me,” he said, leading her over to the table where she would pay. He didn’t know what to make of the gesture, but that didn’t mean he didn’t like it. "I um. Welcome?" she suggested, not sure what to do. She was still feeling mortified, and she quietly paid her bid, then hurried out of the tent, hoping he would follow her. But god she needed air. ( but awesome ends ) | ||||||||

| Who: Skylar and Clementine Where: the festival When: after the auction Clementine grinned as she won Skylar, standing right up and heading to the stage to collect him. She smiled at him, taking his hand before she said anything and pulling him with her to settle up her debt. Then she turned to him and gave him another big smile. Cute and a dealer. Win, win, win. “Hi. I’m Clementine.” ( Read more... ) | ||||||||

| Who: Claire and Ren When: Night time Where: Home Still feeling confused and extremely out of sorts, Claire walked across Gabe’s yard back to her own. She debated going for a longer walk, but all she really wanted to do was change into her pajamas and curl up in bed with her head buried under her pillow for the rest of the night. Hopefully the mental image of Gabe and Ren kissing wouldn’t keep her up all night. Stepping inside the house, Claire was quiet as she listened for any sign that Ren was around. It suddenly made sense why Ren had made plans with someone else earlier, rather than spending the entire day with Claire and Gabe. A lot of things suddenly made sense, but that didn’t mean she liked it. ( Read more... ) | ||||||

| Who: Gabe and Claire When: Evening Where: Gabe’s house The festival had been plenty of fun, and admittedly, Claire had never seen The Wizard of Oz, so the movie was a bit of a treat as well. It felt normal to just hang around with Gabe and not worry about school, or work... or poisonous bats - if that’s what they were, anyway. At some point after the movie, Claire and Gabe headed back to Gabe’s house to hang out for awhile, like they had planned. That was when the nerves had kicked in hardcore, and Claire had to resist chewing on her fingernails as they walked back to his house. The nerves weren’t a bad thing, though. They were more like butterflies, flitting around in her stomach in anticipation of... well, something. Being alone with Gabe again, she supposed. Considering they had been friends for years, and had essentially grown up together, Claire knew there was no reason to feel awkward or out of sorts, and in a way, she didn’t. It was just a shift in their friendship, and Claire knew once a certain line was crossed, things would change. ( Read more... ) | ||||||||

| Who: December Where: the morgue When: evening Warnings: violence After the auction shit, and hanging a little around the festival, December went in to work. It was quiet again, back to almost normal. Or, it was right up until another body came through the doors. It was after dark, and it didn’t take long for her to spot that it was another vampire attack. The bite was clear, and there was, she noticed, a faint trace of lipstick there on the victim’s skin around it. It left a sick feeling in her stomach. She went into the office to grab the requisite paperwork she’d need to fill out as she went, only when she walked back into the morgue proper, there was a woman standing over the victim, rifling through their pockets and trying to wipe off the last of the lipstick on the bite wound. Both women froze for a second as they recognized each other’s presence. Then things turned to shit really fast. ( attack mode, engaged ) | ||||||||

| Who: Avery and Finn Where: The festival When: After the auction Once they were off the stage and out of the way, Avery felt she could breathe a little bit better. She had no idea where Darcy had dragged Liam off to, that poor guy, but her cousin was really the last thing on Avery's mind at the moment. "We never officially met, but I've seen you around," Avery told Finn, once they were sort of alone. At least not being watched anymore. She smiled at him and almost offered a hand, but that felt kind of weird, so she kept it at her side. "I'm Avery. My family owns the bar in town." ( because it could be ) | ||||||||

| Who: Audrey and Finn Where: school playground When: late afternoon Audrey left the crowd behind. People were picnicing in central park there, and as she passed someone's unattended basket, she quietly and totally unobtrusively lifted a beer from it. She walked away from the proceedings entirely. She kept walking until she found herself at the playground at the school, and she sat down on the merry go round, cracking the beer to sip it. She was a massive lightweight. She knew that. And she didn't know if this was enough to get her buzzed or not but she'd take the chance. ( Audrey learns she doesn't wanna be left alone ) | ||||||||

| Who: Mal and Serge Where: West Road When: 4 PM onward He imagined people were having fun. It certainly sounded that way from the noise carrying over from the dome's center. Even here, verging out towards the western farming plots, Serge could hear the din of life teeming in a collected spot like the babble of running water. And he supposed it was good to hear; heartening even, because if people could come together despite the state of things? They weren't giving up, and that meant there was still something worthwhile here for his granddaughter... ( run russian run ) | ||||||||

| Who: Ren and Skylar What: Meeting Up Where: Festival Ren was sitting on the curb, playing with her braid as she waited. She had done it after she had fixed Claire’s for her, pulling hers over her shoulder to cover the side of her face, making it harder to see the purple bruise covering most of her left cheek. Instead of wearing her standard variation of shorts, she was wearing one of her two pairs of barely worn jeans and a nicer tank top. But she was still wearing her near ratty converse, not being able to budge from those. Even for a town festival. Or a sort-of-not-really date with Skylar. ( Read more... ) | ||||||

| Who: Mickey and Kenzie Where: The festival When: After the auction Mickey followed Kenzie off the stage then towards where she had to pay up for her bid, watching her closely. Sure she’d said things about how it was nice to expect the unexpected, but Mickey had issues with that. He wasn’t good at that. So he just followed after her, curious and full of questions that he wasn’t voicing yet. ( because i'm definitely not sure ) | ||||||||

| Who: Avery and Darcy When: Afternoon Where: Home With the festival probably in full swing by now, Avery was dressed and ready to head down to the park to check it out, more specifically the auction. She walked downstairs to find her shoes, wondering if she might run into Ren somewhere. Avery didn’t mind doing things alone, but it was always more fun if people she actually liked were around to goof off with her. Sitting on the nearby chair, Avery shoved her feet into her shoes, thankful that her headache that morning had gone away after a shower and breakfast. She hadn’t even had that much to drink with Gabe, but seeing as how it had been awhile since she had alcohol, it had definitely taken it’s toll. ( Read more... ) | ||||||||

| Who: Open to Everyone! Where: The Movie Festival, Central Park When: 4 p.m. When the clock struck 4, Chiri bounded up onto the stage, grinning and waving at everyone. She'd been given a microphone earlier, which might have been a bad idea, considering it was now covered in stickers. Rainbows and happy faces type stickers. "Good afternoon, Domers! Welcome to happy good fun festival day, with lots of stuff going on! There should be something everyone can enjoy, and we've got an event here to help out our treasured citizens--the children! All proceeds go to the orphanage, which I will assure my very self! If anyone tries to pull a fast one, they're getting bitten! And no one knows if I have rabies or not!" she said brightly to the crowd. "Anywho! Today, we are gathered here to honor a time tested tradition! To totally sell people off for good times for a good cause! So get out your wallets, and feast your eyes on this Dome's bravest bachelors!" Chiri winked at the crowd. "And by the way, they are all way easy on the eyes, so let's cough up some decent pricetags!" she teased. "Here's how this goes! Opening bids start out at twenty bucks! They'll go up five at a time!" she explained. "To make a bid, wave your number around, and someone'll spot it. Probably me. Then there'll be raising bids, and all that til someone comes out on top! Winners will get an evening with their shiny bought man, along with tickets to a movie at the theater! I should tell you it's got to be done within thirty days, but who the heck would wait it out that long when these men are just waiting for you?" Chiri bounced up and down on her feet. "And on that note--let the bidding begin!!" | ||||||||

| Who: Maggie and Jack Where: Central Park When: Noon-ish It was only a few hours before the festival was set to start and Maggie still had some finishing touches to put on the popcorn booth. Mickey had helped her finish the construction, but the painting and decorations? That was all her. She’d painted the whole thing red the day before and now was finishing up the lettering, incredibly pleased with the final product. With all that had been happening, the festival was something fun to look forward to, even if it was going to be a long day for her. She’d been in at work at nine, then immediately went to work on the booth. At some point, she needed to grab lunch, but not until the booth was done. The paint needed time to dry and then she could eat. If nothing else, she’d stuff her face with popcorn later that night. Jack wasn't quite sure if he was going to be attending the festival. It wasn't really his scene, so much. But at the same time, he didn't want boredom to set in. Him and being bored weren't a good mixture. He shouldn't be left to his own devices when that happened. It was probably his biggest concern about being in the dome. Thankfully, just as he was thinking about driving the boredom demon back, he spotted a nice, shiny distraction. He ghosted up behind Maggie, coming to a stop to stand quietly behind her and just to the left, eyes up on the lettering she was doing. "Look at you, all arts and crafts." ( a little give and take ) | ||||||||
