OOC: LOG Peony and Jade
Who: Peony and Jade
What: Talking about the murder of Nephry's Husband
When: Feb 15th
Where: Jade's room
Why: Cause we can.
Warnings: none?
Jade: [just standing outside the balcony of his room] [Looking out and being all ~*WISTFUL*~]
Peony: [knocks at the door]
Jade: It's open. [Knows that only Peony dares enter his lair]
Peony: [walks in and stands next to Jade] How'd it go?
Jade: Well enough.
Peony: Right.
Jade: She's in the first guest room now.
Peony: I'll go see her in a minute... unless that's you kicking me out. [Eyes Jade because he seems a bit... off]
Jade: Ah. I thought that's what you came here for. [doesn't look over at him]
Peony: I could have found her on my own, Jade. [puts a hand on his shoulder]
Jade: Right right. I forgot you were a dog.
Peony: If you mean loyal, man's best friend and having a nose for picking out when something's wrong... I might have to agree for once. [gives Jade a look that says 'talk']
Jade: [doesn't want to BU] [leans against him instead]
Peony: [pulls him into a hug]
Jade: [leans his forehead into Peony's shoulder]
Peony: Whatever you're thinking, stop.
Jade: [muffled] That implies I was thinking something, Your Majesty.
Peony: You're always thinking something.
Jade: I hate you sometimes.
Peony: Why is that?
Jade: You know me too well. I may have to kill you next.
Peony: Stop it. [hugs tighter]
Jade: [finally wraps his arms around Peony]
Peony: It's not your fault. [Isn't sure if he's saying it to himself or to Jade]
Jade: Of course it is.
Peony: No.
Jade: Yes.
Peony: You couldn't have known.
Jade: I should have at least tightened security.
Peony: What good would that have done?
Jade: There would have been some sort of warning at the very least.
Peony: So we could've caught him after he was done? I've seen his fonic arte, Jade. Even with warning, it wouldn't have stopped it.
Jade: It would have been possible.
Peony: He meant well. I don't agree with what he did, but he meant well.
Jade: *looks up* ...You're not honestly trying to defend him, are you?
Peony: No... I didn't explain well enough to him why he shouldn't.
Jade: Van has turned him into a machine for killing. There's no slapping his wrist and telling him not to do it again. There's only what just happened yesterday.
Peony: He just wanted me to be happy...
Jade: [rolls his eyes]
Peony: What?
Nothing. [pulls away]
Peony: [frowns]
Jade: Stop defending him.
Peony: I'm not defending him.
Jade: What do you call what you said, then?
Peony: A statement of why it happened.
Jade: It happened because we were careless.
Peony: We can't change what happened.
Jade: [snap] I know that.
Peony: [takes a step back] Jade...
Jade: [adjusts his glasses] Sorry.
Peony: It's fine. What all did you tell her?
Jade: She'll see the autopsy report either way. I told her he was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and an assassin, who'd come to take advantage of the festivities, murdered him.
Peony: [nods]
Jade: [goes back to staring over the water]
Peony: Does anyone else know it was Sync?
Jade: Not yet.
Peony: And will they?
I'm under direct order from you, Your Majesty.
Peony: I want whatever keeps this whole incident as low key as possible.
Jade: Fine.
Peony: Thank you.
Jade: Think nothing of it, Your Majesty. I'm only doing my job.
Peony: I'm leaving you in charge of Sync's punishement. Whatever you feel suits the crime. And doesn't draw the attention of the public eye.
Jade: Yes, sir.
Peony: Stop that.
Jade: Stop what?
Peony: Being so formal.
Jade: As you wish. [unfortunately being Jade's best friend means seeing this side of him too 8U]
Peony: I'm not Princess Buttercup.
Jade: That's not half bad a name for you. Perhaps afterwards, we can rename Malkuth to Candyland, and Grand Chokmah to Bubblegum Town.
Peony: Only if I get to rename you Vizzini.
Jade: No.
Peony: Then I guess there won't be any renamings.
Jade: [makes a 'come here' motion]
Peony: [shuffles over]
Jade: [leans against him again] I apologize.
Peony: [hugs him tight] Apology accepted.
Jade: Idiot.
Peony: Why do all of your apologies end with an insult?
Jade: It's how I save face. You should know this by now.
Peony: [hugs him tighter]
Jade: [reaches up to take one of his hands]
Peony: [raises an eyebrow, but says nothing]
Jade: [lifts up Peony's ring finger, then arches an eyebrow]
Peony: What?
Jade: Nothing.
Peony: Just say it.
Jade: You have a chance now.
Peony: [tries not to smile] I know.
Jade: Something good has to come of this.
Peony: Of course. Speaking of... [eyes the door] I should probably go check on her.
Jade: No comfort sex for me then? I'm hurt.
Peony: I'll be back later after I'm all worked up and can't do anything about it. [winks]
Jade: I'll find the good lingerie
Peony: Oh you. <3
Jade: [smile]
