You can't handle you

I take one step then I take one backwards I'm kinda curious oh,no you got me already

[thecuriousmindofawriter-blog]

Hmm? Oh, yes, yes I’m fine. Just. This drink is just a bit strong, I guess.

[skyebennand]

Usually people don't drink something that strong unless somethings up, but sure that's a great excuse. Do you mind if I have some?

[drainingtouch-deactivated201402]

Guess who returned from the dead.

[drainingtouch-deactivated201402]

You’re no fun.

[skyebennand]

Okay now I'm just offended. I am a ton of fun. You can't say much Miss. Undead. When's the last time you went out and couldn't remember the events?

[lunarcursed]

Well, you certainly aren’t wrong there.

I suppose the lack of hustle and bustle is what’s getting at me. In comparison, it seems so.. quiet.

[skyebennand]

It does. I sort of liked the peace but now... I don't know it feels like something is missing.

[thecuriousmindofawriter-blog]

I think I’ve been stood up.

[skyebennand]

You okay there?

[lunarcursed]

"A few months back. I had some personal things to deal with."

[skyebennand]

We've all got personal things to deal with - this is Starlasia. We might as well have a neon sign stating 'if you want misery with a side order of murder this is the place for you'.

Not much has changed in a few months to be perfectly honest. There's been a few who have upped and left but that's about it.

[drainingtouch-deactivated201402]

Guess who returned from the dead.

…Bad joke? Ah, fuck it.

[skyebennand]

I don't get it.

[lunarcursed]

"What a ghost town. Has it really been so long?"

[skyebennand]

I guess it has, depends on when you left?

[iamawomanking]

I leave on a simple business trip and the entire district seems to have died.

[iamawomanking]

But not you, hmm? You haven’t been “scared off” by any of these unfortunate occurrences?

[skyebennand]

No, not me. Law is my life, I'm sure as hell gonna pass the bar here. Besides what kind of strong woman doesn't love a challenge?

[iamawomanking]

I leave on a simple business trip and the entire district seems to have died.

It makes one wonder what would happen if I had left altogether.

[skyebennand]

I heard they all moved. Got too scared off by the weird stuff that was happening. Star's basically a ghost town these days.

[drainingtouch-deactivated201402]

I may or may not have gone into hiding for a bit.

But all of my SUE work is finally finished and put aside, and I’m more than ready to socialize and make my presence known again.

So, who missed me?

[skyebennand]

Me. You know you suck at your job. Kay has not stopped doing all that crazy extra reading. In fact, he seems to be doing more. End of term assignments are due in soon and I cannot have that idiot beat me one more time, so thank god you are back. I think I'm going crazy here.

[ameliathelight]

Shit- sorry.

[skyebennand]

God look where you're go - oh hey! Look it's my drinking buddy, where have you been in my time of alcoholic need?

[iamawomanking]

Hmm...

[iamawomanking]

It’s a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Bennand.

Oh, please, you give me too much credit, dear. I’m really no different than you or anyone else.

[skyebennand]

The pleasure is all mine Miss Hauser.

You're being modest, you practically own this town. I would kill to be in the position that you are.

[iamawomanking]

Hmm...

[iamawomanking]

…Indeed.

I don’t believe I’ve had the pleasure. My name is Athena, and what might yours be, dear?

[skyebennand]

Skye. Skye Bennand.

I know who you are Athena Hauser. You're sorta famous around here you know?

[kaygalvan]

Is it strange that I sort of like the silence?

[skyebennand]

Normally I'd say no, but about now... it's just creepy. It's like the whole district has disappeared without a word.

[iamawomanking]

Hmm...

How odd.

[skyebennand]

If you're talking about Starlasia and its missing occupants then yeah... its pretty god damn odd.

[drainingtouch-deactivated201402]

Sunday night alone.

[drainingtouch-deactivated201402]

Wait a minute, are you telling me that you’ve known all along that Kay is immortal?

Why not watch both? Making comparisons are actually quite fun. Well, in my opinion they are, anyways. The original we watch first, though. That must be it, people are always quick to judge others. Just because you come off as the ‘no nonsense’ type for the majority of the time doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun, either, but you know, I suppose it’ll only be a matter of time before they finally come to realize that.

[skyebennand]

He's immortal? I thought it was something to do with the same sorta shit that brought you back to life, I didn't realize he was immortal. I know some people have powers and whatever, I didn't realize that some of us weren't actually human.

Sounds good to me. Well only if I let them, some people just aren't worth getting to know. Believe me, I've met this girl and I swear to God if she got to know me she'd probably just find a way to use it to torment me.

[mockingjalie]

The odds had been entirely in her favor. But it hadn’t mattered.
