fourteenth labyrinth

[friends of Ashura]

My name is Felix. We may or may not have spoken previously, but I wondered if I might ask you a few questions.

[A pause while he thinks this over, then he hastily adds...]

[Cupid]

I've heard you are a god of love. Might I...ask you for advice on a related matter? My name is Felix...for the filter.

....

So what, pray tell, is the next godforsaken holiday on the castle's calender. I feel I should be keeping on my toes...

[Which he is, in this case literally, as he reaches up for some tea on a high shelf in the kitchen. Making tea is a harder than normal process when injured. He places the tea on the counter and runs a hand through his slightly curly red hair, which is loose and wild about his shoulders, since tying it back requires more than one hand. Now, where was that tea kettle?]

((Open as open can be. Come ambush the wizard in the kitchen))

[Sup Felix, have a Crowley lounging in a nearby chair]

Valentines day. And the keeping on your toes thing is a good battle plan.

[Sup Crowley. Way to assist the handicapped ;)

Felix gives the faucet a considering stare, then the kettle. Hmmm. He turns it on then fumbles with the pot a second before getting it under the stream. He looks briefly triumphant.]

I hate that there always has to be a battle plan. [sigh, but he's partially amused anyway] So when is it and what should I expect?

[That's what angels are for. He'll watch with a hint of amusement]

Well, it becomes a necessity when you're never sure if something will try to murder you tomorrow. [He taps the table] February the fourteenth. It's a day all about love. Last year people had magical arrows that made whoever they shot fall in love with them.

[Eff you, Faye :/]

[lord-wizard.livejournal.com]

Arrows? How alarming... [He raises an eyebrow but he's rather intrigued about the idea of a holiday about love, in light of his recent query]

I can't imagine that ended well.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

It didn't end well at all.

[He's still very annoyed at Faye for what she did :/]

[lord-wizard.livejournal.com]

[Felix looks vaguely amused]

I thought you were all in favor of that sort of thing, Crowley.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Not when I was seeing someone at the time, I wasn't.

[lord-wizard.livejournal.com]

[Oh right. Castiel. At least he figures.]

I see. But you certainly couldn't be blamed for it if you weren't acting of your own volition.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

NO I couldn't, and I wasn't. But the person firing the arrow knew better.

[He scoffs a little] Or she should have.

[lord-wizard.livejournal.com]

[Felix is the king of bad decisions, so, he could maybe sympathize]

Did you ask her why?

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Of course I did. She was being selfish, apparently. It's what she does.

[He gives an offhand wave of his hand] It hardly matters now, anyway.

[lord-wizard.livejournal.com]

If it hardly mattered, you would not have brought it up at all. [And with than particular look on your face]

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

I brought it up because you asked what holiday we were expecting next.

[Yup, denial is good]

[lord-wizard.livejournal.com]

Of course. [Knowing grin. Whatever you say, Crowley...]

So what will you be doing this year? I imagine some good locks and a nice selection of booze is in your future.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

I don't know, I might have a wander, see what's happening. I can always plan an escape clause if it gets too ridiculous.

[lord-wizard.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you're better at that than most. [Reality-bending magic and all...]

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Being me does have it's advantages once in a while, Felix.

[Felix merely chuckles lightly and goes back to making his tea]
