Aislinn Connelly (Nov 28, 2011 11:57:22 PM)
(In the dining room, the smell of a Chinese food feast awaits)

Alex Steele (Nov 28, 2011 11:57:38 PM)
(( Alex ate half of it! ))

Isabel Ross (Nov 28, 2011 11:57:46 PM)
*In the kitchen, eating pie. Iz is poking at Audrey's one vine like it was her cat*

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 28, 2011 11:58:06 PM)
He creeps out of whatever hole he'd been hiding in, probably out of the basement, and peeks through the doorway... He stares at Izzie. "You getting in on the poking game too?"

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 28, 2011 11:58:19 PM)
::Audrey's vine is poking Iz back in a familiar-looking game. There is lemon tart on the counter::

Alex Steele (Nov 28, 2011 11:58:29 PM)
*alex is playing with what's left of his tart with a fork, and holding on to Audrey's vine like emotional life support*

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 28, 2011 11:58:41 PM)
Alex... eat your pie. Please.

Isabel Ross (Nov 28, 2011 11:58:47 PM)
Um. Maybe?

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 28, 2011 11:59:27 PM)
An evil sort of laugh.. he pokes one of the vines nearby him, skitters out the door and over to the table to sit down. "Some of this is for me, right?"

Alex Steele (Nov 28, 2011 11:59:42 PM)
*Alex finishes his pie, quietly, and in a way that makes him look self conscious simmilar to having a neon sign flashing "Alex is being self conscious!"*

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:00:37 AM)
Furtive looks about, he starts snagging food.. eyes Alex sideways. Then pokes his arm, and anyone's who was on the other side of where he was sitting, before setting into food. Yes, he enjoyed the poking game.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:00:47 AM)
::Audrey snakes a vine over and pokes back, as Ais laughs:: Yes... please, eat some. ::she looks to Alex:: How is it going with the devices?

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:02:04 AM)
Slowly. I keep at it untill I fill my duffle bag with parts of the recorders, lug the parts to where Doctor Steele can get tehm, and then go back to teh sewers. It's cramped, it's smelly, and it will take me a month working straight through to get it all clear, and I don't know if I have that kind of time. BUt I'm trying.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:02:32 AM)
I will be going down with you. ::said softly::

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:03:16 AM)
Which is why I'm saying... couldn't we create a virus for the bacteria? Something to kill them off that doesn't require so much hands on time?

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:03:53 AM)
I do need to study the bacteria...

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:03:58 AM)
I know you will, and you will be able to take them out of places I ahve trouble getting into. I just... *he sighs* I feel like I have the fate of the city resting on my shoulders. *to Iz* the problem as I see it is getting the virus into the bacteria pod.

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:04:08 AM)
A strange sort of blink looking at Iz.. and after a second he crossed his eyes and went back to food. Munching a bit before saying.. "Don't look at me, I know NOTHING about that kind of thing."

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:04:34 AM)
You are not alone, Alex...

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:04:55 AM)
We will do this together. All of us. And... there are more things we'll need to look into.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:05:24 AM)
I know, but there are more than just you and I in this city. Would it kill someone like Craig to get his hands dirty? *Alex finishes his pie* More things?

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:06:18 AM)
He snorted.. "Craig? Stop showing off for five minutes to actually do -dirty- work?"

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:07:01 AM)
Well, the water filters through them... so lace it in the water? I dunno.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:07:18 AM)
::she nods:: Craig, Kay, and Lyric came across something that will be threatening the sewers and drains in a few weeks, at winter solstice.

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:07:39 AM)
Was there a grudge there? Oh hell yes. He looked grumpy for a few minutes, munching away at dinner.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:07:41 AM)
I would just like to mention I am highly nervous about putting things in the water. If what we put in the water affects people... *he shudders*

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:08:33 AM)
Well, I will be there during the winter solstice, so it's not like it's out of my way to stab the shit out of it, too. I take it they won't be assisting in the danger to the city?

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:08:34 AM)
Point.

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:09:31 AM)
Mutter.. mutter... mutter... in chinese of course.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:09:51 AM)
*alex hands Jareth teh Mu shu pork, guessing at his meaning*

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:10:20 AM)
He snags it, dishes some out, munch munch munch.. Hollow leg syndrome tonight or something.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:10:38 AM)
At this point... I don't know what they will be doing. But, there's 5 of us working on the sewers.. that will help.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:12:15 AM)
The four of us and Jacob Ashur, or are there more? *Alex seems hopeful, since his mind has obviously failed him tonight, and his body is failing him after several days of round the clock working*

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:13:36 AM)
Well, we know Lyric, Kay and Craig don't want anything to do with this.... so..

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:14:26 AM)
Just the four of us.. and Jacob.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:14:43 AM)
It is wrong of me to want to leave their data collection devices in place. They wouldn't last under torture, and would give the rest of us up. *he's trying to convince himself*

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:15:05 AM)
"Don't look at me.. I'm not playing recruiter again.. " Something of a bitter tone in his voice.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:15:40 AM)
I.... we can always leave them to last.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:15:45 AM)
If that makes you feel better.

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:16:24 AM)
We should probably, once the most vulnerable areas are cleared, just focus on making a random pattern of cleared. That way, if we can't get them all.... we have some red herrings.

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:16:43 AM)
We should be sure to center out from a random location. I can map it?

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:16:58 AM)
"And nobody gets left behind, even dens of jackasses don't get left behind." Grumpy tone.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:17:40 AM)
I started with the ones on this street, so I think I have let my personal passions in this mater cloud my judgement enough. Saving them to last, it would be to tempting to "forget." I am not a very... good... man.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:18:42 AM)
I was not indicating we should "forget"...

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:19:04 AM)
(sorry, I got distracted, I have a kitty in my lap)

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:19:06 AM)
"I like that Idea, Iz.. Pick somewhere random, go from there. Hopefully they'll never notice. "

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:20:32 AM)
Map it. I am going to try and get by on about six hours of sleep and if you leave the map somewhere I can find it in the morning, I will change how I am clearing firs thing.

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:23:22 AM)
*She nods* It's like reverse mapping a serial killer. Good times.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:23:36 AM)
Seven hours. ::eyeing Alex::

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:23:59 AM)
He eyed Alex too, and smiled faintly. "Seven."

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:25:56 AM)
*Alex is outnumbered* Can we assume that I talk about danger to the city, needing to be working, and you all say somethign about not wanting to live in a city I saved by working myself to death and then we agree on six and a half, knowing that Aislinn will promise me drastic measures to keep me home a little longer and knock me out for at least seven if not more?

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:27:23 AM)
A slow grin... "You know us so well."

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:28:15 AM)
::she smiles sweetly:: I will have my way, one way or the other...

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:28:29 AM)
Yes, but now we all know that I will see feminine whiles coming a mile away from Aislinn, so she has to actually deliver on some of the whiles jsut to confuse me. *he smiles weakly*

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:30:12 AM)
I'm sure that she can try. Better at least give it a go, hm?

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:31:01 AM)
I can just make you -think- that you got "wiled"...

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:31:35 AM)
He reached over and poked Alex in the shoulder again, a couple times. Singlemindedly.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:32:34 AM)
*he grins and blushes a little* It's having friends like you that make working myself to death worth while. *to Aislinn* Perception defines reality. If it's all in my head, it's still wiles. *big goofy grin, then turns to Jareth* Yeeeeeeees? *sleep dep is starting to show a tiny bit. Alex seems punch drunk*

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:33:28 AM)
*She rubs her eyes* I might need to crash, too...

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:33:34 AM)
"You can definately assume I went on about you needing a break, and not wanting to lose one of the few people in this crazy city that I actually trust." That said, he goes back to munching dinner.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:35:53 AM)
*Alex leans over and bear hugs Jareth* I love you like a brother man. Even if it makes me feel funny the way you looked at me on the DVD cover. *looking up from hugging Jareth* You wanna crash here, Izzy? It'll be like a sleep over! I have movies in my man cave!

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:36:22 AM)
::she smiles to Izzy:: You're welcome to stay here, we have an extra guest bedroom..

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:37:06 AM)
"Guh!" He blinks.. and smiles wanly.. Since his arms were pinned he just uses his skull to bonk him one. "Don't worry, I'll keep my hands to myself, brother.. "

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:39:01 AM)
*letting Jareth go* I never thought you would act on it, but it made me realize just how... revealing that costume was. In retrospect, if I had known what it looked like, I don't think I would have come out of the dressing room.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:39:26 AM)
(( note to self, buy seperate dot of fame for Alex's speedo bulge. ))

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:39:39 AM)
(*snerks*)

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:39:41 AM)
I... sure. *She fidgets* It should be fine.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:40:27 AM)
*looking to Izzy* It'll be better than fine. I'll make waffles in teh mornign before I go!

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:40:57 AM)
A grin.. then he eyes Izzie sideways.. "Come on.. hang out with us.. It's nice here."

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:43:13 AM)
Okay. I'll go look at the room, then...

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:43:34 AM)
(speedo bulge! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmrLzT2BHng )

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:45:02 AM)
(omg! *cracks up*)

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:45:53 AM)
(WIGGLEWIGGLEWIGGLEWIGGLEWIGGLE..YEAH!)

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:47:09 AM)
My room with the movies is down the hall on the left. *The room is a nice home office that was set up for him. His action figures and remainign comics have been unpacked and displayed tastefully. There is a comfortable couch, a nice recliner, and a big screen TV for him as well as his computer. Hanging on the wall is framed art, original inks and colors of Hal Jordan as Green Lantern and Carol Ferris as the Star Saphire.*

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:47:57 AM)
(( I need to make a cardboard box helmet like that. ))

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:48:00 AM)
::and two large homemade quilts on the couch::

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:48:29 AM)
And the spare? The windows lock, yes?

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:50:25 AM)
*Yes, large homemade Quilts.* Yes, the windows lock. The door, too, though I've not tested it. You'll be comfy in there, and can watch TV or movies, or read my comics. *Alex nods, winding down like one of those monkies with the cymbals*

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:51:05 AM)
(heh) Jareth had pretty much finished his food.. he'd inhaled it, honestly. He gets up and stretches a bit. Before bouncing over to the sink to get a drink.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:52:53 AM)
::Audrey takes Jareth's distraction at the sink to make a full-out attack, reaching to tickle him with 4 different tendrils::

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:53:07 AM)
We have an alarm system as well, Izzy.

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:53:36 AM)
*A nod* Ok... good night guys.

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:53:39 AM)
"Gah!!" He jumped a foot or two, ducks into defensive mode and launches a counter poking attack. "Crazy plant!"

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 12:55:27 AM)
Good night, Izzy! ::Audrey then continues to poke-attack, enjoying himself immensely::

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 12:55:40 AM)
G'Night Izzy! Sleep well! and don't worry, you are safe here. *he smiles sleepily*

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 12:56:15 AM)
He runs about the kitchen, playing a minor poke war for a couple minutes.. Before hiding behind Ais...

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 12:57:11 AM)
*Iz heads off - though she does make a point of packing away anything too easily flammable and triple-checking the locks*

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:00:47 AM)
::Audrey was gleefully (for a plant) poking back, but stops when Jareth hides behind Ais, tendrils in the air, but... not wanting to poke his dearest one:: Jareth... you know that you encouraged him..

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 1:02:12 AM)
*Alex laughs as Jareht hides behind Aislinn.* Audrey, would you like me to get her out of the way so you can molest Jareth some more?

Isabel Ross (Nov 29, 2011 1:03:03 AM)
(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 24.3.205.232)

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:03:08 AM)
A grin. "Meeee?"

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:03:43 AM)
*completely shameless*

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:06:23 AM)
::she laughs, and shakes her head:: Yes you... ::Audrey's vines rose in a "menacing" gesture, as though he was biding his time until Aislinn was free from his path::

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:07:38 AM)
The grin did not leave.. He eyed the stairs, considering making a dash for his room.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 1:07:50 AM)
*Alex moves with a clumsy grace from exhaustion, takign three quik long steps towards Aislinn, then leaping in the air to grab her in a tackle to teh couch, clearing the way for the tentacles* GET HIM!

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:09:22 AM)
::Aislinn yelps as he grabs her and she lands on the couch, at the same time, Audrey's tendrils go at full speed for Jareth, playfully, ever so careful not to hurt him. It's almost frightening how quickly those tendrils can move when they aren't snaking around the ground or walls::

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:09:46 AM)
"Ack! Scamper!" Too slow, he got poked many times on his way towards the hall.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 1:11:38 AM)
*Alex laughs and pulls Aislinn ontop of him with a sleepy smile* Have I told you recently you are beautiful, Banphrionsa? Like... super model beautiful? *his eyes sparkle, ignoring the chaos down the hall* Cause I think you are gorgeous. Waaaaaaay outa my league. *he nods, his southern accent thickening the more tired he becomes*

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:15:08 AM)
::she laughs and settles down on him:: You, Laoch, are -insanely- biased... ::she grins:: Out of your league.... what league am I in then? ::she leans against him, smiling as she nestles down against him:: Audrey... continues to chase Jareth down the hall... did his vines have no end?!?::

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:15:48 AM)
He's headin for his room. Safe haven? Maybe, maybe not.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 1:18:54 AM)
Naw, ah'm nawt biased. Yur wuna them gals that should be with a doctor, or a rock star, or someone beaut'ful and 'mportant. A S'lebrity, ya know? Someone ... someone more'n me. But Ah'm glad yur here with me jus' the same. *he hugs her tightly* Think the boost ya gave me is wearin' off.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:22:36 AM)
::Audrey is still pursuing Jareth with single-minded plant stubbornness, pokepokepokepoke all over, even as he reaches, and -just- as Jareth was making it to his room, Audrey's tendril wraps quickly around his ankle and before Jareth can nose-dive to the wooden floors, he's wrapped up safe as a babe in a collection of vines and cuddled carefully. Aislinn... is trying to weed her way through Alex's ever-thickening accent, and she grins, hugging him close:: I think it is too... right on time. It's the glut of carbohydrates and it wearing off... let's get you to bed, Laoch.

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:24:12 AM)
"Gaaaaaaah!" Flail... and then he starts laughing... "Crazy plant!" More laughing.. because.. lets face it, that was fun.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:25:08 AM)
::and even as Jareth flails... Audrey's tendrils start to retract, bringing Jareth with him::

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 1:25:24 AM)
I wus promised wiles... *he smiles, forcing himself to his feet unsteadily and offering Aislinn a hand up* But really, I think more'n anythin' else, I'd just about kill fer a back rub.

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:26:08 AM)
Yup, still laughing.. he's having a ball.

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:27:18 AM)
I think a backrub counts as wiles... ::she smiles, gently nudging Alex to head for the bedroom, pausing as she looks down the hallway, seeing Jareth be hauled away by her plant... smirking, as Jareth is moved past, Audrey... starts to tickle again, now having Jareth in his "clutches"::

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:28:27 AM)
"Halp, I'm being kidnapped by a crazy plant!" He didn't sound too distressed, honestly. I think it's safe to leave him.

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 1:28:44 AM)
Audrey... you play nice with Jareth. *he grins* Don' do nuthin' to unnatural to him. *He slips an arm around her shoulder to support himself more steadily and lets her help him odwn the hall to the bedroom*

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:31:14 AM)
::Aislinn gets Alex to the bedroom: Go get undressed.. I'll get the oil. Audrey... don't hurt him... you know he's all bony and squishy. ::she winks to Jareth, even as Jareth is drug to the kitchen, and plunked down in front of the sink, where he'd been when this first started::

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:31:43 AM)
(*amused*)

Aislinn Connelly (Nov 29, 2011 1:32:10 AM)
(lol, love that plant)

Alex Steele (Nov 29, 2011 1:32:34 AM)
Ah like the sound of oil... *HE ambles into the bed room, undressing as he goes, not really careing, everyone here is family after all. He mercifully keeps his shorts on untill he is in the bedroom, and has crawled into bed*

Alan 'Jareth' Lee (Nov 29, 2011 1:33:02 AM)
(*watches an epi or two of happy tree friends*)
