second spell ☠ video & action

[fantachetic]

Who: Dorian Pavus & You
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Malum
When: post-shuffle

[ It's been quite a while since Dorian made a public broadcast, but all things considered, someone should do it, and why not him? He's nice to look at, has a way with words, and in a thoroughly bad mood. Still, no one would be able to tell with that public mask he has.

The feed opens up on a booth at Malum, A close-up of Dorian and his glass of wine. ]

For those of you who have somehow not noticed, a great number of our own have left this cold, dismal place that has yet to reward us for their invasive and cruel treatment of us. [ An elegant eyebrow raises and his mouth draws into a line. ]

The most appalling is their lack of proper spirits, however, this will have to do. The very least we deserve is a decent meal and a proper, stiff drink- perhaps twenty. It is an insignificantly small mercy that the ones who are no longer with us don't have to suffer the Atroma and their churlish silent treatment.

Comments

[fantachetic]

As much sense as it did before, naturally.

[passingthrough]

Oh, well, that much sense isn't a lot of sense. At least I never thought so. Or I haven't for a long time anyway.

[fantachetic]

Hence the drinking.

[passingthrough]

Hence indeed. [She grabs a glass to pour something for herself, but it's just lemonade or what passes for it.]

Was it someone specific? [She did hear part of what he was saying after all.]

[fantachetic]

Isn't it always?

[passingthrough]

I suppose it is. [Not that the general build up of disappearances can't get to a person. They can. They have. But the ones that really hit hard are usually someone meaningful to you.]

I'm sorry.

[fantachetic]

I am certain I will get over my own self-pity.

[passingthrough]

Well, I never have, and I think it just makes me more charming.

[fantachetic]

As charming as you are, I'm afraid it wouldn't hold the same flair for me.

[passingthrough]

It can be an acquired taste. Still, people make an impact and that doesn't go away just because you're gone. Give yourself a break for not being over it.

[fantachetic]

Silly to be this upset over a revolving door of faces, isn't it? It's not as if we were together. [ Because as much as he loves Leilani, sorry no. ]

[passingthrough]

Silly maybe. But I'd say it's human except I'm not human and I have no idea if you are. Language is limited that way. It's understandable.
