Who: Rosa Martelli, Mina Barrett, Jones, and Anna Demirovna
Where: near #18
When: The night between Day 29 and 30
What: Reuniting with old friends


It takes Rosa a while to get oriented, and she gets turned around several times, but she makes it to House 18 relatively quickly. She would like to explore the town further, but right now all she can think about is reaching the relative safety of people she knows.

Even if she doesn't really like one of those people. Under the circumstances, though, she is perfectly willing to overlook many character flaws.

She knocks firmly on the door. "Mina?" she calls. "Are you there?"

Who: Wallie Smith and Anna Demirovna
When: Evening, day 16
Where: Wallie's house.
What: At last, meeting in public.


Wallie had tea on.

He suspected Shonsu would have rather died than make tea for an impending guest, but as far as Wallie figured, he was operating more in his own world than Shonsu's. So never mind what Shonsu might think.

As it was, he was feeling a bit ridiculous. Whoever the previous owner of the house had been, the man of the house had apparently been quite a bit smaller than Shonsu was, and Wallie was a bit pressed for clothing that might fit Shonsu's much larger frame. Pants were, at present, an impossible dream, so Shonsu's blue kilt would have to do for now. Sorry, Anna. At least he had managed to find a shirt that sort of fit, even if he couldn't button it up.

He really would have to ask around for clothing donations, at some point.
indiscreet: storm-chased mistress (fae ☦ I want to pour it out)
[personal profile] indiscreet
Who: Anna Demirovna/Huntress and Mina Barrett/Queen
What: Anna decides that she and Mina need to talk about their respective fae...situations
Where: deep in the trees outside of town
When: night of Day 4, an hour after sunset
Notes: It's not impossible to stumble on this scene, but it would have consequences, so check with us first. Also, Anna doesn't fully distinguish between herself and the Huntress, so pronouns will get weird here.
Warnings: The Huntress in particular is generally pretty violent and unsettling, and she's likely to show.


She can feel herself crackling under her skin — mist and lightning, a kind of nervous tension — and she hates it. Hates the uncertainty of where they are and what they're doing here. (She had been so sure that the one who'd given her to herself was going to take her back again, just before Cape Kore took her away from Chicago, and the idea of that is simultaneously two different kinds of upsetting: because of the violation inherent in taking away something that was now her, a part of her identity; and because of the fleeting notion that she'd lost her opportunity to be free of this.) When she sprints, inhumanly fast, into the trees, it is her abilities as the Huntress that she taps: she can't afford to spend the blood it would take to use the vampire version of the ability.

As the underbrush becomes denser and then impassable, she lets herself come to a stop and leans against the thick trunk of a tree. With a feeling of relief, she drops the glamour masking her appearance: lightning crackles through her hair, and the air smells of rain and the ozone before a storm.

She needs to talk to Mina, to the Queen. They're in this together now, in more ways than one...even if Mina has never seemed to be as strongly affected by her Title as she has been. Still: this is one expenditure of blood that's worthwhile. Anna concentrates — and Summons.
