♥ don't tie me up

[Sirkka looks like she just took a bath! In the bathhouse, no less. There may be creepy-crawlies around, but that doesn't mean she can skip out on hygiene. She draws a comb through her long hair methodically as she perches barefoot on the bar, wearing a purple silk yukata.]

It's rather quiet for a zombie apocalypse. Now I'm starting to worry.

[ooc: IMPORTANT NOTE IN THREADS. Your character will only be able to tell the truth when talking to Sirkka! Have fun guys.]

Your yukata is almost as striking as you, Princess.

Do you have experience with zombie apocalypses?

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's just a bathrobe, but thank you. [He's cute. Way too young for her, but cute. She offers him a can of soda.]

I used to sneak into horror movies with my friends when I was younger. Does that count?

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

[he's distracted from wooing by Tales of Commoners Adventures!]

It does, it does! What a wonderful tradition of the commoners! Increasing the horror of an already terrifying movie experience by sneaking into the theater and constantly having to contend with the fear of being caught as well, all while saving precious money, too. A true display of commoner's wisdom at work!

[HAHA WUT. She blinks a few times.] ... I never thought about it like that. We just didn't want to pay our entire month's allowance for a bad movie.

Are you some kind of prince? Referring to people as 'commoners' is sort of...

[Damon looks rather embarrassed by her just-showered appearance, and shakes his head] I'm not sure I'd call it particularly quiet around here.

[It's not like he can see anything. It's just... legs. Hi.]

Zombie movies usually have everyone holing up in a building. There's screaming, looting, that sort of thing.

It feels more like the eye of the storm. We don't see how bad it is 'cause we're in the middle of it, but when it moves...

[doctorsfanboy.livejournal.com]

[Legs are plenty cause for embarrassment. Stuffy Time Lord, remember? :D] I suppose you have a point, though I know nothing about "zombie movies." Are you certain it's wise to be so off-guard? Your outfit doesn't look particularly functional, though it is lovely. Of course, I'm hardly one to talk.

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

[This is true. Damon barely shows his ankles. She ought to flip his skirt up sometime just to see what he does.]

Why, thank you. My clothes are only drying. As soon as they're done, I'll go back to wearing them. [Also she doesn't need normal clothes to defend herself. She adds with a flirty little smile:] If that's okay with you.

[Looks like Box always meets Sirkka when he is about to clean something. Right now he is dying for a shower, or just to wash his hands, his gloves are on him since a few hours now those need cleaning too, or burning. He is slightly bit frustrated.]

There are still zombies, zombies! Or whatever things these are-- And we can't go home, what is this madness, this is just not right, this should be a movie, or some game and not-- I'm not even sure this is all real!

[Box huffs as he is evades Sirkka in a big circle to get to the tubs. Zombies or not, women are still scarier, even if he knows them, especially now that he is not wearing gloves, and has no cleaning products.]

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

[Her smile fades as Box has a freakout. Indeed, he seems to be a mess. She slips off the bar counter, concerned.] Wait, Box. You shouldn't go alone to the bathhouse.

[boxtheotaku.livejournal.com]

[Suddenly stops, and stares at Sirkka in disbelief.] There are zombies there too--!? Don't tell me, don't tell me there are, why would they need to clean too?! Wha- wait you would come with me even if that is the case...?

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

Between here and the bathhouse, yeah. Well, some. Maybe. They're probably gone now, but I would be a horrible person if I just let you go by yourself.

[She lets him keep his personal space.]

Of course I'd come with you. We're all in this together, aren't we?

[collector]

[well done on hygiene!] Very nice yukata. I think I should take advantage of being deprived of my usual wardrobe to dress up.

[Braxiatel has, of course, been taking advantage of the ballroom's restocking to make sure he gets suits he likes. He has been stuck with the same cufflinks for days now, though, and that is terrible.]

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

Why thank you, Mr. Braxiatel. ... Though, you seem dressed up to me all the time. Your suits are very classy, of course, but it makes me wonder if dressing up would make you ridiculous. [She smiles at him as she brushes her hair.]

[collector]

In my Chancellery robes, certainly. Not that I'm Chancellor any longer, courtesy of Narvin, but we suffer the slings and arrows of Time Lords if only out of pity for their small-minded perspectives.

[Braxiatel immediately recognizes the effect, and something changes in his smile. He has, after all, already learned how to outwit it.]

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

[... Oh, that was rather sharp for Braxiatel. She blinks a few times.]

Is something...?

[bodilesswarrior.livejournal.com]

[with a wry smile as she wheels herself into the bar, Escrima sticks and throwing stars at the ready on her lap] Silence is always more unnerving.

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

[Sirkka doesn't mind the wheelchair.] It really is. The last few days have been a little... rough. I'm considering mixing some hard iced tea for those who are old enough to drink...

[bodilesswarrior.livejournal.com]

[the utter lack of reaction is refreshing] I'm sure they'd appreciate it. I'd keep a few stone-cold sober people around, though.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[the Doctor is still in his Skonnan attire, though it's had a good washing, so the helmet is nice and shiny though its feather is drooping a bit; the robes and gloves look stiff and heavy, the boots hard and firm, but then they're meant to

it's no wonder he wants a drink, really]

I prefer this to the tortured screeching, honestly.

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

[Sirkka actually does a doubletake. This is prooobably the first Doctor she's met that she actually recognizes, though his clothes seem to be... uh, different. She shakes her head as if to clear it, and fwoosh barriers. Barriers are awesome.]

I just like seeing what we're up against. This has the terrible flavor of turning us on each other, just like before, and I dislike it very much.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[smiles wryly at her reaction] I got caught in the middle of an undercover venture. Not my typical taste, I assure you.

[and then he nods] That might well be the intent, yes. Hopefully the majority are too sensible for it.

[oliverplus]

Quiet? Have you missed the monsters so far, Sirkka?

[ooc: I can't resist responding here! The truth effect just has too much potential...]

[newworldlover.livejournal.com]

Not at all, but I'd expect to have to hole up in a building with everyone else like in the movies. They won't even go near the kitchen. I wonder why. [She combs through her hair some more.] I am thankful for a break now and then, but it makes me wonder just how bad it's going to get.

[oliverplus]

Yeah, I guess I was expecting something like that, too. But I'm glad we don't have to. You're sure they don't go into the kitchen? That's something, anyway!

Much worse. After those death matches, there has to be something worse coming. [despite the gravity of his tone, he looks shocked at himself for saying that] B-but we'll stick together, whatever it is.
