august mingle;




This is the general mingle log for August. Feel free to post open top levels for: new arrivals, job duties, general hanging out in common spaces, bonding with your block, and anything else you can think of.

There will not be a catch all for the event, so you can put event starters here or in their own separate log!

[ The Countess feels no guilt, no remorse. She had enjoyed her previous life, and she had done what she needed to in order to stay young. She would sacrifice anything necessary for it. ]

I'm The Countess.

[ SUPER NORMAL AND NOT WEIRD. ]

The Countess?
[Dinah looks sceptical before she starts to laugh.]

Yeah, and I’m the Queen of Gotham City.

[ Yeah, she's not laughing. She looks very serious. ]

Do you take issue with my name? Because I've been The Countess for a very long time.

[Dinah’s still sniggering. She tries to straighten her face, but the smirk’s still there.]

No. Not at all, your Highness.

[she rolls her eyes.]

I’m just messing. It’s just a joke, right?

[ DOES THIS LOOK LIKE A JOKING FACE, DINAH? ]

If you think my name is so funny, I'd be happy to meet you later and show you why it's not.

[ Danger danger, Will Robinson. Do not get into fights with cannibals! ]

Hey...
[She’s realised her misstep and is trying to back off.]

I’m not looking for trouble.

Then choose your book and hurry along. There are others waiting, you know.

[ Sorry she's a heartless horrible bitch, Flagg will no doubt cajole her into making amends for the sake of adding to the cult. She's just used to a century of no one questioning her. ]

I'll need your name for checkout. No more than five books in your cell at a time, checkout is two weeks with one extension. Questions?
killersong: (looks down)

[personal profile] killersong 2020-08-10 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh... no?

[Dinah hurriedly takes the book in her hand and another one that she pulls randomly from the shelf and plonks them both in front of the Countess.]

I'm Dinah. Lance? Dinah Lance.

[It doesn't feel right to be giving her real name to the Countess, not now she's insulted her. Not that a fake name would be much use here. She tries to look as inconspicuous as possible as the Countess checks out the books.]

[ Well, giving a false name for library checkout is also something that can get her a shot, so good choice, there Dinah.

The Countess fills out the checkout slips with practiced ease, filing her copies in a small box and sticking the others into the pocket inside the cover. She holds the books out for the other woman to take. ]


Here you go, Dinah Lance. I'm sure I'll be seeing you sooner rather than later.
