009 [In Search of Fun and Games]

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

[Drusilla isn't sure if she likes the hot springs. Water doesn't speak to her as readily as the other elements do. The splashing and bubbling drowns out everything that might be of use.

However, she does like her beautiful yellow ring - even if it should be gold, as befitting a princess - and is turning it round and round on her finger as she meanders through the sixth floor. She is barefoot, but, as swimming costumes are a concept that passed Drusilla by, she is still wearing a long white dress. The hem is becoming increasing more damp as she wanders down the corridor towards the outdoor baths, in search of ... ooh, anything at all. It's so nice to get out of the crypt for a while.]

Does anyone want to play with me?

[Have a Juni smelling faintly of ash coming towards you, Drusilla!] ...I suppose a break would be nice; waht do you want to play?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

[And Drusilla sniffs accordingly.] Have you been making fires?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Airily] Explosions actually... Well; trying to- so far it hasn't been amazingly successful but it hasn't been absolutely terrible.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

Why are you doing that? Don't you like the water?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[She just stares for a few moments and then nods slightly] It's nice enough; but I have a revolution to organise- I can't spend all day around here when I'm organising such things; haven't you got anything to get back to?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

[Drusilla shrugs.] Only Miss Edith. And my Spike.

[With the Slayer creeping closer to him, she needs to stay at his side. But he's becoming less and less inclined to let her sit there.]

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Miss Edith wasn't brought here? That's very mean of them; we should punish them.

[She pauses and for a second a look that clearly says "oh good lord did I just start caring about a doll" flits over her face but is soon replaced with a faint smile]

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

Oh, I will. When I catch them. [Drusilla's eyes glitter at the idea.]

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Can I help? It was very mean of them taking me here when I've got a universe to change; they should've asked first.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

Mmmm. Yes. We'll make lovely messes.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

We can make them scream.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

They did give us presents. Do you have a pretty little ring?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

I suppose [She holds up her hand] ...They're the same colour; that's quite interesting; did you arrive here with it on too?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

[Dru nods.] I can't take it off. I'm not allowed.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Jun frowns] Do the pixies tell you that?

[elegantthestars.livejournal.com]

What sort of game are you playing?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

I haven't decided yet.

[elegantthestars.livejournal.com]

Well, how about an idea of what you like? Maybe we can figure out something together.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

Why don't you pick?

Do you like snakes and ladders?

[elegantthestars.livejournal.com]

Snakes and ladders? I don't think I've ever played.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

It isn't the same without real snakes.

[elegantthestars.livejournal.com]

Yes, well. I'm not sure I'd agree.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

Because they'd chew at your pretty little fingers and try to munch on your bones?

[elegantthestars.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't say that, exactly, but yes. I don't think snakes eat humans, but I'd rather not find out.
