So. Finally got this thing working again, just in time to hear all bloody hell breaking loose up there. Sad to have missed it.

Unfortunately, I've been spending my time chained to a wall in someone's basement. Now I ask you- is that a way to treat an old mate

You really think Angel's going to let that happen?

[lessritual]

'Let'? Maybe, maybe not. Wasn't asking his permission, was I?

[1inageneration]

Get used to it. Hey, if you're especially good, I'll even bring you a pillow.

[lessritual]

Ooooh, what incentives. Careful, don't want to be spoilin' me.

Say, heard about your little sis being pulled out of the City. That's gotta hurt, that little bit of family gettin' ripped away.

[toobad_sosad]

You are vampire that people do not trust too?

[lessritual]

That's me. What's your name, love? People not giving you a chance? It's profiling, that's what it is. Totally unfair.

[toobad_sosad]

Marishka. I was sent to a prison when the people came to play with me. Such cheats.

[lessritual]

Aww, at least you got a real prison, I guess. I just got dumped in the basement. They didn't like it when people came to play, eh?

Name's Spike, by the way.

[ladyofwinter]

Punished for not doing anything. How sad.

[lessritual]

Isn't it? It's completely uncalled for.

[ladyofwinter]

Very, very uncalled for. Not a fair deal at all.

[lessritual]

Not at all. I'm hoping someone will find it within the kindness of their heart to straighten this whole mess out.

[atoner]

Don't get too heartbroken over it, Spike.

voice;

[lessritual]

Well, I'm sure I'll get to see some of the excitement soon. Doesn't everyone talk about these curses coming back 'round?

Hey- maybe one would even get rid of you for a day! Or give you a horribly uncomfortable disease. I'd be happy either way, really.

voice;

[atoner]

It's not like I sit down there and make small talk with you. I leave you alone to sit there and occasionally give you blood so you don't whine as much. Otherwise? I'd rather not spend too much time in your company.

voice;

[lessritual]

Feelin's mutual, peaches. And let me tell you how grateful I am that you don't come down for any heart-to-hearts.

But obviously, I'm not rid of you, seein' as how I've been stuck in your soddin' cellar for weeks, nothing to do but twiddle my thumbs. Men can go mad in this much isolation, you know.

[hiscountess]

Hm. They chained you without provocation?

[lessritual]

None whatsoever. I was just mindin' my business, and they jumped me soon as I came out of the Raven.

[hiscountess]

One girl claimed you were dangerous, but this is pathetic and cowardly. Contact the police, won't you?

[lessritual]

Somehow I get the impression they wouldn't be too willing to assist me.
