Last night, Jane descends the stairs to find out what woke her up. She finds...a dog, barking at the bar. How odd. In keeping with the natural order of things, Jane soon ends up covered in lemonade and dog drool. Later, Jane meets Peter as Peter gives the dog a whole lot of envy- and hunger-inducing chocolate. Jane then is covered in chocolate ice cream and some more dog drool.

Good timing being what it is, Will Stanton chooses this time to mildly greet Jane. Jane glomps Will. Will and Jane catch up on old times and talk about how things have been going. Trouble-causing words such as "remember" and "coincidence" are furtively dropped into conversation by both muns. Kibeth and Will have a conversation composed entirely of meaningful looks. Jane wonders how come she's stuck at the bar and Will comes and goes easily. As Will tries to assure her in the humanest way possible that she most likely will return to the moment she left, someone catches Jane's eye.

*cues dramatic music. One delicate, rippling, bell-like phrase sounds from nowhere.*

An unassuming Oxford professor is just quietly enjoying a drink at the bar when his mind is invaded by an urgent thought from Will, actually causing the mild-mannered professor to curse. It only gets worse from there, folks.

Jane and Will talk behind the professor's back, Jane wondering who the professor is, and Will trying not to seem like he knows too much. Jane decides to go ask the professor if he knows her, because she can't remember where she knows him from or who he might be. (It's not the Dark that fills Old Ones with dread, it's times like these)

Jane approaches the strange professor in search of the truth. Merriman thinks of how much Jane has grown since he last saw her and then has to pretend not to know her, making Jane's mun wibble. Jane asks if the professor knows her, because it's really bothering her that she seems to only half-remember him. Merriman has a hard time answering. Jane, feeling oddly wrong, and Merriman, pretending not to know Jane, introduce themselves to each other. They shake hands, causing the part of Jane that remembers Merriman to break into itty-bitty pieces. Will tries to be comforting. Merriman asks what's wrong, even though he knows all too well what's wrong, the beaky bastard. He offers her the knowledge of why she remembers him, she wants it, but he doesn't give it to her anyway. Fine time for an Old One to start thinking of an individual's happiness.

Will takes Jane to her room and leaves her there. She is not allowed to remember most of what happened. Old Ones and necessity really suck.

Hours it took:3
Muns it broke: At least 4.


Why did I ever say I'd summarize such an emotional monster? Why oh why?

Ares and Tonks arrive. Ares and Crowley muse on holidays, as do Tonks and Crowley. The topic eventually shifts to Peter, and it transpires that Tonks is a little troubled by the recent changes she has witnessed in his character. Crowley isn't.

'Skandra arrives, and she and Crowley break each other into a hundred thousand tiny pieces.

Both muns end up in tears.

The End

If you're wondering what this is, it's as near an approximation as I can make it of the first fourteen lines of 'Into the West'.

I always seem to sleep on the worst days for it.

I wish I'd been here to wish 'em a proper goodbye. To hold Sophie's hand. To cry in company. I wasn't.

*lifts glass*

To Sam and Selkie, Sirius and Skandra. You made me happy. I'll miss you.

Freaky freaky freaky.

The 2004 Star Wars Trilogy DVD edition?

Yeah, Anakin's ghost in Jedi, not played by Sebastian Shaw anymore.

*points* Bottom of page.

Freaky.

To Sam and Selkie:

I never got to have any of my characters here (four and counting, for the record) interact with Sirius and Kassandra, for one reason or another, but I always enjoyed reading your threads, so very much.

You and they will be missed.

A question for... well, Bernard-mun, I guess, now, unless it's Sophie and Nny who decide these things.

In several of Angelo's conversations, the idea has come up of him earning his keep by playing his new guitar and/or singing in the bar. Would it be possible for this to be an official arrangement, a la Holden working as a waiter, or should it be a kind of busking thing?

Also, if possible, I wouldn't mind him joining the waitstaff. He's getting a little bored, I think, especially now he's refusing to sleep. ;)

I won't be around for a while.

I don't know how long.

I'm sorry.

Moiraine!mun, Liz!mun, Desire!mun, and Fleur!mun have why.

Just wanted to point out the heartfelt singing going on in this thread.
