FAMILY MEETING 2.0

[succiduous]

Who: Everyone. All Y'all. You Cannot Escape.
What: Info share because I know y'all got the plot
When: Late August, post Flower-Murdering
Where: The Inn
Warnings: triggers should be tagged appropriately in post headers! please and thank you!!


[Gnosis has government assigned himself "guy who bothers everyone about the plot" this time around. He craves information. You have information. You will give the information up during what he's calling a Town Hall, but was previously called a Family Meeting.

People who do not show up for the "what the fuck just happened this month" meeting will not be forcibly dragged into it, but will receive the most Disdainful, Judgemental look. Can you truly stand to be judged so harshly by a 35 year old man... no. You cannot. (You probably can actually he's not that intimidating.)

There are no snacks (currently) but there is freshly-brewed tea by Gnosis himself, and there's a framed corkboard he's brought downstairs (presumably out of his room) with notes on it, as well as some of those mysterious photographs that have been taken of everyone that he's asked to have. You know, so he can piece this puzzle together. Once everyone's gathered...]

Let's get started. Some of you have been here longer than others, so I hope you can volunteer information so we can figure out where we are and why, and anything else we later arrivals might have missed from the collective puzzle. Please try to stay on task.


[[ooc: hi hello this is your share-the-plot-ICly log, with the goal of a) catching up new arrivals and b) making sure information circulates ICly to avoid metagaming. which like that hasn't been a problem but you know, just in case. if you've never done one of these before they function a bit like this where everyone shares important info they've discovered with the class.]]

[ She laughs at him, laughs for him - ]

Wow, [ She coughs a bit, the seriousness of her composure breaks from the laughter falling from her lips. How can she take it seriously, when this man took everything TOO seriously. He was the sort of existence that BB liked to break but insufferable in a way, that made him a long game rather then a quickie. ] you got it all wrong. Whatever fuck made you think like that - that living for yourself is wrong.

Really brain washed you. I hope you don't shove those opinions at others, and make them feel anything that you do [ No, she hopes you do. She's just manipulating the scenario to fit her wants. ] - unless you want them to end up acting empty and devoid of any feeling.

People need to be selfish to be alive. [ That's why she hates humanity. ] And if they don't, then how else can they over come their own sense of mortality? [ And that is why she loves humanity. ]

[g...gagtag? but also not really]

( lookin over here like

[Add is still dissociating in Elsword's winghold over here but he spares a blank smile in Fel's direction like

( sips tea like mmmmmmhm )

[simplicitas]

I don't think living for yourself is wrong. Again, this is just about how you treat people.

[You know. Saying you'd make the guy with the cursed voice powers beg for help, with his cursed voice, as if that isn't stupidly dangerous and bad for everyone involved (in Elsword's not-so-humble opinion).]

Maybe I'm not "alive" to you in the way that I live for others. That's fine with me. I've never regretted that choice.

[devilishkouhai]

This is about how YOU think you are allowed to treat people - deciding for them that you will talk on their behalf. What a typical 'hero' type, [ She gets mimicry about the tone of her voice - mocking him. ] think they know better then everyone else.

[ No you don't get it Elsword, she needs to know what he is capable of for RESEARCH!! PURPOSES!!!!! She doesn't say that outloud, she never does. Never says her full truth. ]

You look plenty regretful in your face right now - honestly if I didn't get snippy with you and blatantly act full of myself. I bet if I asked you to do something - you'd go ahead and do it without question.

A little push over, a weeble wooble but they dont fall down~ ~ ~ !!

[simplicitas]

[Regret? On his face? That doesn't sound right to Elsword; then again, he's never cognizant of his facial expressions. He's aware he tries to make them, but the whole emotionless-tool-of-god thing hampers his efforts. He barely smiles; the light never reaches his eyes quite right. He's a walking simulacrum of a real person.

"Regret" is a funny look for him. Maybe it's because of the long list of things he cannot, could not fix. Maybe it's because Add is here, barely hanging on; maybe it's because of Audrey or Yuno or anyone else he's fit into the collapsing archives of his memory that he failed.

He takes a breath.]

If you had been nice, yes, I would have. Even though you're mean, I might still do something for you some time. I wouldn't call that being a pushover.

[devilishkouhai]

[ She walks right up to him, stepping with a sense of fluidity to her movements. She doesn't care who or what watches her - doesn't seem to care if he tries to stop her either. BB will walk until their faces are close to each other and she is only but an inch or so away. In the event he keeps his distance by walking back, she will follow. If he stops her with a hand - she will stop, but come close she does. ]

gagtag again sorry i won't stop ever-

[simplicitas]

real tag.

[simplicitas]

[Doesn't move. Just stares at her.]

1/?

[devilishkouhai]

[ Leans forward to kiss him. ]

2/2 jk tw: non consensual kissing

[devilishkouhai]

[ If he doesnt do anything, she will drop her arms around his neck and make the kiss deeper. She goes to lick his teeth - she wants those fluids. Hell, just a taste of it she realizes - this guy is the real deal. He's a mana machine - so then she goes to eat him more.

This is a force sloppy make out session. The kind where someone is trying to literally drink your face more then kiss you outright. ]

YOINK

[amethystic]

( and bb will feel a fist in her hair...


immediately yanking her back, by several steps. hey. hi. it's the local witch and she looks downright disgusted. )

What the fuck do you think you're doing...? Actually, no. I don't want to know, and I don't care about your excuses.

( her next word is a command and a curse all at once: )

Don't.

[devilishkouhai]

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo [ She gets scruffed like a bad dog, and pulled away. her body dragging on the groung. ] stopppppp!!! if I drink his face I can make this place go in luluhawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

[amethystic]

What if we don't want to go? Also, you didn't ask. I don't care what point you were trying to make, or what you want- you don't fucking do that.

[devilishkouhai]

Ehhh, but fel-chan. The guy couldn't even ask even if he wanted to.

[ Her arms are crossed, and shes just being dragged away still?? maybe. ]

cw: threats of teeth trauma

[amethystic]

Don't call me that, we're not friends.

( JUST... BLUNTLY... )

That's also incredibly untrue, you're just pushy and presumptuous. And even if it was? One: That doesn't make it up to you to decide, and two: it's still fucking wrong.

( felicity pulls back harshly, to make bb look back up at her. )

If you try anything like this again, I will curse you. It will be even more unpleasant than right now. And I will not remove it.


Also I'll break your teeth, but that's a separate matter.

[harmacy]

[add: im staying out of this
bb: kisses his notbf
add:

anyway while Fel is getting up to yoink Add is already sending a swarm of drones to her location, which is to say Elsword gets a shield of several sharp needles arranged between himself and BB.]

Let's try and keep this on topic, please.

replying here for continuity, crying

[simplicitas]

[For all his emotionlessness, apparently Elsword can blush, so that's a good sign (source needed). He doesn't look like he's having an internal crisis but he sure fuckin' is man, and most of it is just "wait I thought we were arguing what is happening".

Also goes without saying this man has never made out with someone before and this is really awkward—

Fel yoinking and Add's drones intercepting gives him a moment of reprieve, luckily, so he can process ?? what just happened to him ?? everything happens so much he is just a guy.]

Um— [putting his hand over his mouth,] I thought you were going to hit me or something, not that.

(not here)

[amethystic]

( she's busy right now buT SHE WILL FUSS MOMENTARILY SHE PROMISES )

[devilishkouhai]

[ Kissy face as she is pulled away. ]

Heh. Pathetic.

[harmacy]

Is there still a problem? If you're unable to control yourself I'd be more than happy to do so for you.

[he WILL bring out the sedatives so help him Elria

when did he sneak an arm around Elsword's waist, now they're both holding eachother like overprotective freaks...]

[devilishkouhai]

Kawaii.... [ She is busy talking to Fel. ]

[simplicitas]

[

Yet again Elsword having the moment of "why do your hands feel Right like this" sorry he has the gay.]

Add, it's okay. I'm fine.

[thinkin bout... them holding each other like freaks tho]

[simplicitas]

[Elsword internally: Yeah of course it was pathetic I was not prepared to kiss anybody today?!

Also Elsword internally: Does BB have feelings for me? I thought we were fighting? Why would you kiss someone you don't like?

He is completely unfamiliar with the concept of hatefucking. SOS.]

...watch out. I think people are mad at you. Maybe don't do that again.

[he's watching Dynamo and Fel very carefully like :0]
