*wriggles fingers back at the plant* I'll come down and visit, I promise! *grinning back at Aislinn* It's a movie and I think they did a play originally. Little Shop of Horrors. I brought petit-fors

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:01:36 AM)
Oh yum! ::she grins, peeking into the box, while pouring the tea into a lovely china cup, and handing it to Cas:: I can give you some if you like it.. .made tons. ::the plant lifts a bit higher and shakes its leaves again, Ais grins to her:: Now... you're just teasing... ::winking:: Hmm. I'll have to get the movie... maybe Audrey will fit him.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:03:42 AM)
Well really.. I hope he's nothing like Audrey, but it's a fun name. And really..how many literary sentient plants are there?

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:04:04 AM)
*sniffing at the tea appreciatively and taking a sip without letting it col* Mmmmmmm

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:05:39 AM)
Not too sure... I know mine are.. ::the tea is hot, and slightly sweetened, the brew is strong, yet gives a delicate taste of jasmine:: I can get some for you to bring home. I have.. ::she opens a cupboard, FILLED with various marked glass tea jars... -full-:: plenty.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:08:14 AM)
*laughs* Yeah..you really do. Planning to throw a tea party for the city of New Orleans?

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:09:13 AM)
::she giggles:: Hey, I'm well stocked. And when you Yanks decide you need to throw another tea party... I'm ready.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:09:45 AM)
(In the kitchen, with the basement door open. Vine is just watching us from the safety of the sanctum while they visit for a few)

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:09:52 AM)
*is in the kitchen with Aislinn, an open box of petit-fors on the counter, both have jasmine tea* Oh that'd be a waste! Besides..those were Northerners. *grinning impishly* We southern belles know the value of good tea.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:11:00 AM)
::she smiles:: I'm so pleased to have met a true tea lover... ::sipping her tea:: It's soooo weird... I can put things on the top shelves.... -and- reach them again without a chair. I think I'm going to leave it....

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:11:49 AM)
*nods* That makes sense. Good lord, a gift like Audrey there.. I wouldn't risk anything cosmetic if it might hurt him or your basement.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:12:38 AM)
::she nods:: I won't risk him... Maybe Audrey is a good name. I -should- see the movie first... before asking if he likes it

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:14:07 AM)
Weeelll.. Audrey was a sort of..violent plant. At the end.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:14:42 AM)
*wrinkling her nose and making a face* Seriously it's just a good nickname. I wouldn't want to get too attatched to the source.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:15:04 AM)
I... don't think he's violent. Well... to approved visitors. ::she grins:: I make no promises if I'm not here.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:15:57 AM)
*sets her tea down to wiggle her fingers by her face like a bad halloween trick* Spoooky. I'm glad he likes me. *laughs*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:16:53 AM)
::she laughs:: Oooh, don't let him think he's bad.... he's brilliant. ::looking to the vine with an almost-loving look, and she smiles:: He does.. you're the only other human he's met.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:18:03 AM)
Aww! Does that mean I get to be Auntie Cas? I never had a sibling and always wanted to be an auntie. *grins brightly* Please please pleeeaase?

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:19:12 AM)
::she frowns a bit, setting the tea down, eyeing it, before looking to Cas, and nodding, smiling faintly:: Oh.... alright. ::she grins a bit more, though it looks a little forced:: You can be Auntie Cas... ::said with mock-exasperation... before she frowns a bit more:: Cas... do you feel alright?

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:21:24 AM)
Hrm? *blinks at Aislinn's strained expression* Yeah.. I'm fine. *divots appearing in her brow as she's concerned for her friend* You were fine when I came in..right? What's up?

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:23:09 AM)
::she nods:: I.... I think I ... know what it is. Damn. ::said softly:: I'll be right back... ::she moves to go down the basement stairs, bringing a clean glass with her, bending to pet the vine as she goes down the stairs::

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:24:20 AM)
Do you want me to stay up here?.. *calling a moment after Aislinn's out of sight.. wandering over to the basement door and looking concerned*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:25:11 AM)
::calling back up, Cas can hear water pouring and the unscrewing and rescrewing of a few jars:: You can come down if you wish, it's okay. I was a bit.. worried. But I think I know what's up.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:26:43 AM)
*collects the box, setting the teacups back on the top before carrying them downstairs* Scooch over Audrey, I don't wanna smoosh any leaves..

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:31:21 AM)
::Audrey ruffles its leaves and begins to slowly slither back down the steps, moving towards Ais, though a viney tendril moves up, poking Cas' hair again, and poking her cheek again, before it moves all the way down. Ais is at her work bench, pouring a mixture that looks like it holds plant food, into the water in the glass... just a little::

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:34:19 AM)
*giggles a bit at the viney-pokings, struggling to keep her balance on the steps before she's down into the basement again. She eyes Aislinn's drink* Ooo.. Seriously? You want to add that to your tea..or get some honey to flavor that up a bit?

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:39:42 AM)
(one sec, dad called)

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:42:20 AM)
(had to tell daddy the phone was alive)

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:43:10 AM)
::Ais shrugs:: I think... this is why I'm not feeling well. I think... I'm going to need some. I'm just hoping it doesn't poison me. My mixture is natural... let's test. ::she takes a hesitant sip::

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:43:30 AM)
((lol))

Tohunga (Sep 1, 2010 12:43:55 AM)
As Aislinn drinks the concoction shes made up for herself, her feet and thighs go a more full hew of green. Though the nutients hit the spot for Aislinn, giving her an immediately good feeling, which will linger... she has found her next food and coffee/tea substitute.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:44:26 AM)
Oh gee.. I love this solution.. you hope it doesn't poison you? Frickin A..could you at least drink it upstairs so I don't have to haul your Amazon butt up there if you're wrong? *only half-teasing, she's still a little worried*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:44:49 AM)
::Ais has on a calf-length loose skirt and a tank, Cas::

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:45:20 AM)
((Not sure what your outfit has to do with anything.. *lost*))

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:45:24 AM)
::she sighs out a bit, and smiles:: It's okay.. I'm feeling better. Much, in fact. I wonder... if I still need to eat food. Or... supplement my diet... ::she winks to Cas::

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:45:30 AM)
(you can see her legs go greener)

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:45:36 AM)
(green legs)

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:45:42 AM)
((Oo. that.))

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:45:49 AM)
(yeah... they go more green)

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:46:30 AM)
I think... I'll just keep some in my bag... and a spare bottle.. Just in case. ::she grins, teasingly offering Cas her glass:: Would you care for some?

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:47:13 AM)
What is it..exactly? *peering at it and sniffing curiously*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:48:10 AM)
Water, blended with nitrogen, and my blend of plant nutrients. I'll be putting it in the plants in your restaurant. ::the vine snakes over, curling around Ais' arm, and "sniffing" the concoction, before dipping a vine in::

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:48:53 AM)
Oh gee.. so appetizing. *laughs* Audrey can have my cup.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:50:57 AM)
::the vine curls a tendril up Cas' leg, like it was hugging her:: It doesn't taste... horrible. But... I feel much better. ::Ais gets a little 'cup' for the Audrey, and pours it into the pot it's in:: There... a present from Auntie Cas. ::she starts continually curling her toes against the floor, wriggling them a bit, even as she walks, inhaling lightly:: So.... I saw about the letter today..

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:53:02 AM)
What happened? ::in the corner of the basement, there's a comfy cot made up neatly, piled with blankets and pillows::

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:53:17 AM)
*grins as Aislinn calls her Auntie Cas, she jumps a bit at the unexpected contact but then realizes what it was and laughs, petting the big leaves gently* Ya snuck up on me Audrey. *turning to Aislinn* Yeah..it was strange. I've been trying to catch up on things..seems like a lot of folks are gearing to continue the war. Yanno..personally.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:54:24 AM)
Oh? What's going on with that? ::she tilts her head:: I was in a meeting with others... most I hadn't seen before... it was a few days ago. They were talking about flooding and whatnot. And Zenelli's museum had an issue with flooding and then.... this. ::gesturing to her basement:: Their experiences seemed... destructive. Mine wasn't... so bad.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:54:55 AM)
Umm Okay. So Dean texted me to meet up with him and a few others in D9, and we went to this club. Primeval..don't know if you've heard of it, but it's sort of a mage hangout. At least the VIP room is. Anyway, they're all talking about the storms and we were tossing theories around, when there's a knock at the dor.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:54:59 AM)
(door)

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:55:14 AM)
::she nods:: I've been there several times, usually with Jareth..

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 12:57:31 AM)
One of the managers brought in this envelope full of money..and I mean more cash than I'd feel safe walking around with, ten times over. Inside was that letter with it. The manager couldn't remember the chick who gave it to her, like..at all. So I scanned the gift and the bar downstairs to see if I could get a feel for this woman. Even as I was searching..I could feel the lingering resonance turn into my own. I mean secret agent crazy good skill here.. Not a trace left of the original.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 12:58:26 AM)
.... ::she frowns:: Like... Suit kind of skill?

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:00:57 AM)
I don't know.. I've really only ever come across a few suits, and I didn't stick around to play resonance games with them. But to be honest..my gut feeling says she's just..really powerful. One of us though..Tradition even..maybe.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:01:27 AM)
::she nods:: Okay... and it seems like...she wants.. help? What did you feel from it...?

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:02:24 AM)
*tilts her head* Oh.. I just scanned her magic.. I don't actually..well..have any skill..*quietly* Yanno, with thoughts and emotions.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:04:26 AM)
Ahh... okay. ::she nods a bit:: I can.. help with that. If you want.. ::waving a hand, before sitting on the work bench, leaning against a post, and curling her fingers lightly in the foliage of the vined plant:: Did the others see anything?

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:06:02 AM)
I was the only one who looked..I'd have felt it if they tried. *pets Audrey's vine on her leg absently* Alex was going to try and scry the letter.. but we think we know who it's from. It references her husband being alive..and her being grateful to well..Willworkers at Primeval.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:06:56 AM)
Justin was telling us about a guy named Caleb who was involved with the museum somehow.. anyway..he's somewhat famous and they think this mysterious woman is his wife.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:07:53 AM)
::the vine curls around and further up Cas' leg, another vine curiously and lightly poking at her hair a bit. Kaia nodS:: Okay, who.. do we think it is? Zanelli's wife?

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:08:00 AM)
(dammit, Aislinn nods)

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:08:33 AM)
Yes. That's the best guess going.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:09:31 AM)
::she nods:: Do we know her name?

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:09:51 AM)
The royal we? Maybe. I sure don't. Probably could look it up online.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:10:36 AM)
::she smiles:: Yes... I feel rather royal today. ::nodding:: Probably could.. wouldn't be too difficult. Do we know why she's grateful? Because we tried to save him?

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:11:36 AM)
Successfully, according to the note.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:11:54 AM)
::she smiles:: Glad I stayed with him...

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:12:51 AM)
Your work? *winks and gives her a thumb's up* Awesome!

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:14:00 AM)
::she smiles:: I cannot take all the credit.. another woman... Dean seems to know her... came up and assisted. Too many witnesses.. would've been way too obvious if I'd done it. But.. I helped him initially, and stayed with him.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:17:04 AM)
*she nods* So here's the other thing.. Saffron shows up later as Dean and I are heading out.. and she's got info for him about some van that tried to run him down a while back.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:18:22 AM)
I'm still not clear on when that happened or why.. but from what they were saying, I gathered that Saffron's trying to pin the death of the driver and disposal of the van on the Suits. I pointed out that was a hell of a leap of logic, but I don't know how much they cared.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:19:56 AM)
::she nods, tilting her head:: That seems messy.. for Suits. Too many questions.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:21:03 AM)
They dumped the van into a deep part of the lake. *nodding* I was more disturbed by how the two reacted to it. It's like they were just itching for an excuse to start skirmishing with the Scientists.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:24:16 AM)
::she rolls her eyes:: Have they ever -had- any experience with the Suits? I will -never- understand people's desires to run off. I... I've had that experience. It was unpleasant.. to say the least...

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:24:48 AM)
Dean saw the same one I saw last..the one that cut Alex off from his Avatar for a day with a frikkin gesture.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:25:30 AM)
::she shakes her head:: And they want to run in and demand blood..... ?!

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:25:37 AM)
Idiots. ::frowning::

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:26:19 AM)
*sighs* And all the while, Dean's trying to convince me that I should be some sort of warrior. Regardless of the collateral damage.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:28:00 AM)
They don't do their homework.. they don't research.. they just run blindly in... ::gesturing, frustrated, to the air:: Like they'll just overrun them... ::rolling her eyes. As Ais gets a little upset, the plants in the room rustle a bit, and the room feels a bit.. tense. Almost palpable:

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:30:29 AM)
*her eyes flit around the room as she picks up on the tension* Heeeyy..Aislinn?

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:31:14 AM)
::she looks to Cas:: Hm? ::quirking her eyebrow::

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:31:32 AM)
*petting Audrey reassuringly* Your greenery is nervous.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:33:44 AM)
Hm? Oh. -Oh-. ::she smiles, and caresses the vine a bit, breathing out:: Sorry.... it's okay... it's okay everyone. It's fine... just frustrated. ::as she calms... the room starts to relax a bit, 'calming' down:: Sorry, Cas. I've just... I've seen people go after them. Stupidly. For the wrong reasons... it never ends well.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:36:01 AM)
And to be fair, Anat said she was going to look into it further, just held it as a working theory for the time being. *shaking her head* Yeah.. last chantry I spent any time in was levelled because they made enemies of the suits.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:37:04 AM)
::she nods, frowning:: Mine.... it was a Nephandus. ::she sighs softly:: But I've had experience with the Suits.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:37:49 AM)
Never met those..only heard of them. *shuddering*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:38:37 AM)
::she nods:: I don't want to again. So many... corrupted. Destroyed... dead. ::she shakes her head, frowning as she sighs out:: Suits, aren't really that much better.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:40:20 AM)
They're reasonable..for the most part. That's the scary thing. Be polite and keep your head down, and they'll overlook the little stuff. *tugging her hairband out to let her hair lift free and float in Ais' sanctum*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:41:29 AM)
::the vine that was poking her hair, immediately began to poke and play with the floating hair, and Ais grinned, then nodded:: Don't poke the bear... if you don't want to be shot with an elephant gun.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:41:57 AM)
*nods a bit* I don't think that's going to satisfy Dean and Anat..Alex either for that matter.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:42:28 AM)
::she shakes her head:: Well... if they want to be stupid... we can't fix stupid. Well... not in a conventional way.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:45:28 AM)
*mock-tempted expression at that* Maybe I could.. Naaaah. *impish smile*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:45:56 AM)
::she grins:: I like the idea... and I'm rather tempted. But.. they make their own choices. I just hope they don't bring the -rest- of us down...

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:46:37 AM)
We need a third, you know. Still. *idly thoughtful*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:47:33 AM)
::she nods:: I know. I was hoping to convince Josh or Jareth... but I think they are both happy with their current cabal...

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:50:20 AM)
I like Josh. *laughing a bit.* Oh well. We'll find someone with common sense eventually. It'll be easier as Darwin kills off the chaff. *wincing and putting her head down*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:51:30 AM)
::she laughs, shaking her head:: The Circle is always moving... ::leans back:: I don't want them dead... smarter.. maybe.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:51:56 AM)
I don't want them dead either.. *mumbled from her table-smooshed face*

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:54:22 AM)
We'll have to see. ::she leans over, ruffling Cas' hair a bit, and leaning back:: We'll find someone. I haven't been looking much, to be truthful.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:55:24 AM)
*her shoulders fall* Me neither.. was sorta hoping for Josh. *still mumbled* Gonna have ta start looking again. Dangit.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:57:12 AM)
::she nods:: If we wanted Josh... we'd need his wife-to-be, Tarra

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:57:58 AM)
*rolls her head to the side to peer at Aislinn, her cheek still on the table* Tarra's cool I guess. *wrinkling her nose* Silly people. Messing with our ebil plans.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 1:58:42 AM)
I get the impression she's very busy. ::she shrugs:: I'll see what I can do... Josh seems interested.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 1:59:35 AM)
S'alright. I'm okay being patient. Even if it is weird not to have cabals or chantry here.. Probably get less attention from the Suits without it.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 2:00:10 AM)
::she nods:: I agree... and I'd rather make the right decision, than a rushed one.

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 2:01:57 AM)
(your phone is ringing)

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 2:01:58 AM)
*nods a bit without picking her head up from the table* You wanna eat the lil cakes now?

Aislinn Connelly (Sep 1, 2010 2:02:11 AM)
::she nods:: Definitely.

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 2:02:38 AM)
Okay! *pops up and gets the box, opening it up*

Cas Brimley (Sep 1, 2010 2:04:08 AM)
