2-4-2... idek

[huge_egomd]

House wandered around the kitchen, utterly unconcerned about his current state of nudity. He poked his nose into the fridge, the pantry, every damn cupboard but he just couldn't find what he wanted. Of course, it would help if he knew what he wanted but he didn't. He just kept hoping he'd recognize it when he saw it.

[diana_abel]

I'm pretty sure that anything without reproductive organs doesn't qualify.

[hung_garian]

Don't see why. I doubt Lucifer uses his for anything worthwhile.

Jack O'Neill | Stargate SG-1

[thors_fav]

[So very, very out of practice with Jack :( Also, I only play him thru the end of S5 so he knows nothing of Atlantis or SGU.]

[diana_abel]

[She wrinkles her nose.]

I don't like him. He ripped my arm off and beat me with it.

Huh. I'm normally kinda angry about that but...I don't know what's going on today. I'm just so inexplicably happy.

Must be you!

[hung_garian]

Doesn't sound typical of him. What did you do, steal his Barbies?

[He looks at her a little more carefully, at that - at her face, that is, rather than the rest of her, though the temptation is definitely there. Is it 'his' Lucifer she's referring to? And if so, how could she have pissed him off that badly? Even he'd only got himself stabbed.]

That or you forgot to take your meds. Either way.

[diana_abel]

I'm pretty sure meds are supposed to make you happy.

[A beat. And she has the attention span of gnat, it seems.]

Hey, have you ever met John Lennon?

[hung_garian]

Not this happy.

[It's a sudden subject change, but not an unwelcome one.]

Once or twice. Back before he was famous, of course. Wouldn't wanna be seen hanging around with someone as low-key as -- well, as Loki. Kind of an asshole, TBH, but a decent guy at heart.

[Spoiler: it's about 50-50 odds that he's lying. As usual.]

:D

[dickwithfangs]

[Damon was taking the time to look around, see what there was to see of this place he'd been dumped into. So far, he wasn't entirely impressed. He was even less so when he saw Matt come wandering in. All he needed was the judgy witch here to round out how utterly crap this whole thing was.]

I thought maybe he had decent taste, but if you're here, I have to seriously wonder at the level of his intelligence.

2-2-5 i couldn't resist

[mojitos]

[Guess who has two thumbs and has been chasing kittens all throughout the candidate house only to find them holed up in the kitchen. He needs a beer.

He's going to take the time to do just that, reaching into the fridge while the kittens mewl at him in the background.]

Alright, alright already. Just give me a second to catch my breath.

[diana_abel]

That was always my biggest regret. Never getting to meet him.

[Apparently, she's taking it at his word anyway.]

[healthinsurance]

[ Don't mind Matt as he peeks into the box and the head of an adorable kitten pokes its head out. ]

Did you bring a box of cats?

[ Because, clearly, that's what matters. ]

There are like, forty of us. I don't think this is about his level of taste. The way I heard it, the Grasp got us all. Doesn't mean we're actually eligible. Or, want to be.

[dickwithfangs]

[The look he gives Matt is pure condescension.]

No, I did not bring a box of kittens. Stefan's the one that would consider them snack packs, remember?

[Geez, Matt. Try to remember what kind of vampire Damon is.]

Clearly. I didn't sign up to be on some universe's version of 'The Bachelor'.

oh lord XD

[moeromoero]

[Celena had gone to the festival because she was curious, but when the noise and the crowd got to be too much, and she wasn't even certain how to get back to the dorms, she ducked in to the empty tavern and hid behind the bar.

The sound of rapid footsteps makes her tense up, and she looks up when the bottle is snatched up -- by a woman. Oh. Celena recognizes her. She's friendly.

But all that thought accomplishes is to make her relax a little. After all, she doesn't want to be a bother.]

[madmaninabox]

No; decidedly not. Very not -- beach-ish. And for once I was certain about the parameters.

SAM!

[likesyogurt]

[There are a lot of things that being a spy prepares you for. Being grabbed to serve as an eligible bachelor for a prince is not one of those things. Neither is seeing the guy who used to inform on you to the FBI in the kitchen. With a box of kittens.]

Sam...? Not that I’m not glad to see you... but what are you doing here?

[Of course, if anyone would make a fine suitor for the prince, it would be Sam.]

And what's with the kittens?

[departurewithdignity]

You needn't look at me like that Q. I haven't a clue either.

[M sighs and rubs her forhead.]

What are the chances of this being real and not just a drug induced delusion of some sort?

[departurewithdignity]

And when M walks in she just sighs tiredly.

"Put that away." She firmly orders. "Nobody needs to see it other than your mother or your wife, young man." Young man with glowing thing in the middle of his chest.

so apparently there's just been some kind of mass combat?

[madmaninabox]

The Doctor would likewise live, though he was decidedly less scuffed up than Spike was. Certainly not enough to be bleeding all over anything.

He walked into the communal bedroom with his usual springy step, though he didn't look at all pleased, and threw himself down on a cushion.

"Well, that was an absolute mess."

[hung_garian]

Sure it wasn't taking all those drugs or getting that head injury?

[diana_abel]

Dude. I'm not insane. Just...otherwise sane.

1 - 6 - 5

[cordelisse]

This is what she got for trying alcohol the pink colour of bubble gum with bubbles that spark green as you drink it. She shouldn’t be surprised, though. They have everything ELSE in Thurisaz. Why not booze that makes you horny? Yes, it’s been a while since she's gotten laid, but this is fucking ridiculous and she refuses to give into the desire to take someone home (for certain quantities of home, of course) with her.

She will, however, be going out to the park later and venting every bit of this frustration through sword practice and gymnastics. She’d run herself ragged if she had to. Eventually the effect had to pass.

For now, though, she’s going to contemplate the box of kittens sitting on a corner of the bar and attempt to figure out who in their right fucking mind would bring a box of kittens to a bar. It’s as good a distraction as any.

[hung_garian]

Honey, you're in my kitchen, naked. You think we've met, you just kissed my face, and you're happy about having had your arm ripped off by Lucifer. You're batshit crazy.

[diana_abel]

But that doesn't mean I'm not a good time.

[hung_garian]

Naturally after figuring out what was going on and getting a bit of a feel for the place, Gabriel's first move would be to go to the pub. Alcohol rarely has much effect on him, but it's usually worth a shot - besides, it's a good way to meet people. Or, in this case, kittens. He can't say he has even the faintest clue why they're there, either. He's always had a giant soft spot for animals, though - probably why he'd been the archangel to fall the most for the humans - so for once in his life he gravitates towards them instead of towards the drunks. Plus there's a girl standing by them, which doubles their appeal.

"Cute, huh?" He gestures to the box of kittens. "I'm more of a dog person really, but at the risk of losing macho points, kittens always get me."
