So, we have somewhat resumed regular internet-ing -- it should be completely up and running by Sunday the latest. Which means till Sunday I may or may not be on a slowatus. Or at least making with the ninja tagging and things.

Also, if anyone needs anything from me or either of my kids do please let me know. :)

ETA: Nico now has a new PB. James, while lovely, is ridiculously scarce icon-wise so, Jeremy Renner everybody. *hides away from Ana*

/glomps, hugs, all those fun things

The wand-hunt was all I had, and you and Marie leapt into action on that one. :) I'm glad the internet is nearly fixed up, we've missed you.

...And Urania is pregnant and getting married, which is probably relevant to Nico's interests.

*squeaks, falls over, is smothered with all the love ever*

I will have him pop up like the particularly mad pixie that he is later. He will try to behave like someone resembling an adult human being since he's been using all this time to mull things over. Like the fact that he has this coffee date thing that will involve all kinds of conversations he's pretty sure he's never had to have with someone before - much less someone like Sandy so there has been some very manly not-flailing going on in the headspace but, shush, you did not hear so from me.

I am eager to see how goes with the wand hunt. I'm also tempted to have Tegan pop out from some outrageous place just because.

He should talk to Urania about the coffee date. Because Sandy spoke to Urania about it (and she ranked Nico a 2.5, where 1 is "oh, honey, no" and 10 is "for the love of god, run") and we would both be amused if she had this conversation with both of them. It's okay, Nico, Spades and romance. They no comprehend. Urania is in a state of "Married? No, seriously, MARRIED?" right now.

Oh, she should, I think. Elisha is staying out of it other than poking Chris to take Eileen to look.

He should, actually. They can not-flail at each other about their respective situations? Because right now he is going: "Wait. WAIT. Have I just been tricked into a relationship and if so why am I not phenomenally pissed by this realization?" There is much bewilderment.

I shall discuss with Marie if I catch her. Otherwise, expect a Tegan shortly. A Tegan who is hiding away, smoking a ciggie and trying to remember if she has any off-Deck contacts that can source C4 just because, you know. That might come in useful or something.

There can be Spade Utterly Calm What Do You Mean reactions at each other. It'll be awesome.

Oh, well, you know who is posting today? Why, a "court artist"/spymaster Ten of Clubs who does indeed have the contacts for C4.

This is why she loves you, Elisha -- well, one of the reasons.

I also see we have new Arcana Cards!

Yes, yes we do. Zoe does not like them very much so far, but then as Song put it...somehow she inspires the weird quirks in the Arcana. Apparently with these two it's the Threatening Tones.

Poor Zoe.

She should come over for tea and they can talk about things. ~~Things like the Arcana.~~ And bond. And stuff.

She would be happy to come over and talk about things. ~~Even the Arcana, though she has to have the Fun Conversations with Julien or David first.~~ All the bonding. She can test out the strawberry and cream biscuits (http://smittenkitchen.com/2012/06/strawberries-and-cream-biscuits/) on Tegan before inflicting them on Christophe.

Excellent. There will be a time when they don't have things like the Arcana or ...well, the Arcana to talk about.

Baking experiments, yum! No, seriously, she will be happy to play guinea pig because everyone needs to start somewhere and baking seems to be a key component in the whole being a success thing.

One can hope. Although Zoe likes having someone she can talk to about it, because, well, Julien gets reports and Victor would much rather she never speak to them, so that really leaves Sophie and Tegan for conversations - even with Sieben, I think it would fall more into a report.

Zoe is doing all the baking I don't have time to do, and more guinea pigs are welcome. Apparently she also got the Come Bring Baked Goods, No One Will Suspect! lessons that Avery and Tegan each picked up somewhere.

Julien is Julien is Julien.

~~...also, I need to talk myself out of switching Nico's PB to Jeremy Renner.~~

She has the eyes! Those amazing big eyes and probably fantastic lashes that she can just bat at everyone ever and they forget whatever the hell they're saying.

He most certainly is. XD

~~Oh Jeremy Renner. Mmmmmmm. He was almost Elisha. Elisha might like him more. :|~~

She also has the face, which works on most people in a pinch.

~~James is so pretty. So pretty and so damned rare. I suspect Jeremy will make him slightly less of an unrepentant asshole. Maybe.~~

One day, Zoe. One day you'll run this place.

He is. I actually looked for icons. And no, there are none. Less of an unrepentant asshole, even marginally, will probably help. Also talking about business so Elisha doesn't have time to focus on The Sieben.

Jack of Spades. It will happen someday in the distant future.

~~He has issues. He has...more issues than I initially realized when I apped him but it's fascinating. Also, Renner has eyeliner icons.~~

She will be amazing.

Nico, husband dear, my sister is getting married and having kids. :| Clearly I shall need birthday comforting and shenanigans. :|

Darling, I've heard. I'll be over with something vaguely celebratory later.

Good. I'll be needing it.
