Not a list. Spock is my other contract and I hadn't mentioned it.

[guylining]

oh.

out of interest, why not? you worried he wouldn't like him?

[cosmicmistake]

Honestly? I was too busy telling him about you and Methos.

That's all. There was no big conspiracy, but he thought there was, I GUESS, and then he went on this rampage and started with the threats and it got ugly.

[guylining]

so there's something of a hair trigger involved is what you're telling me
that's not worrying at all

[cosmicmistake]

First of all, everything with my dad is a hair trigger.

Second? He'd thought I'd lied or was keeping secrets. I told him that he wouldn't like it if I told him everything and then, maybe, I might have.

Kinda.

Sorta, you know. Proved my point.

[ nate might understand, maybe he wouldn't. if he asks, she'll tell him because she thinks it's funny, but she might not be as forthcoming with someone else. ]

[guylining]

oh god

[ He does laugh, because he can just picture it. It almost makes him feel sorry for Klaus, although in fairness, Klaus asked for it. ]

everything, as in. everything they've made us all do, everything you wanted to do, all of it?
good thing vampires can't get high blood pressure. jesus.

[cosmicmistake]

[ again, she thinks about how much to tell him about what she did, how much he'd judge her. it was so spur of the moment, and yet... ]

I might have sent him a photo or two that sometimes gets misfired around here.

[ or three or so. ]

And since he wanted to talk on the phone so bad, maybe I might have.

[ was it too much? her dad was pissed. ]

Called him 'daddy' but not like a daughter and kind of moaned and asked if he really wanted to know and.

It was bad. But also really funny and he didn't want to know after that.

[ :| ]

[guylining]

oh my god, hope

[ She can't see it, but he's laughing so hard. The absolute balls on this girl. ]

if i wasn't in love with you before, i swear...

you're so sexy when you freak out your parents, babe. probably it's safe to say he'll be careful what he asks for, now

[cosmicmistake]

You'd think but just wait.

[ she almost asks if he'll ever think she's not sexy, but doesn't. she's not sure there's an answer, but if there is, she doesn't want to know what it is. ]

Thankfully, you already were in love with me. And I'm already in love with you, so my dad's not going to kill you. Or maim you. Or threaten you.

[guylining]

well i'm always glad to avoid maimings and killings

he does understand how it is here, right? and also that you're like 22
he surely didn't expect for you to be a virgin

[cosmicmistake]

Remember, he last saw me when I was fifteen and he was sacrificing himself for the greater good. And that, when I got here, I WAS a virgin.

[guylining]

okay well

that's a fair point actually. maybe once he's used to it all himself he'll calm down a bit.

[cosmicmistake]

Know anyone I can shove at him to distract him?

[guylining]

now is when we decide who to set your dad up with??

well i'm down
what's his type?

[cosmicmistake]

Better than letting him obsess over who I'M with.

Did you ever meet my mom?

[guylining]

i don't think so

i haven't met a lot of parents actually, this is all new scary territory

[cosmicmistake]

This might be a little weird, but okay. Here's a photo of my mom.

[ attach.jpg. ]

But there's not really anyone in the city that looks like that that he can sleep with, so go with tall, blonde, blue eyes?

[ see, it's funny because... ]

[guylining]

wow, you look just like her. except for your eyes.

[ She got those from Klaus.

Okay let's not focus on that, it could get weird. ]

alright, well let's see. big shame harley isn't here anymore

she's not blonde, but what about vanessa? she's a vampire.

[cosmicmistake]

[ she did get those from klaus. ]

Vanessa's kind of... idk. Intense? Not in a bad way, but she def keeps to the shadows and my dad wears his daylight ring at all times. Not necessarily a "night time guy" if you know what I mean.

We can keep her in mind.

What about Elle?

[guylining]

maybe. yeah, she definitely has the blonde bombshell thing if that's his vibe

she's probably like the happiest person i know, do you think they'd get on?
i mostly ask because she's about the last person i could imagine being cool with like. maiming people.

[cosmicmistake]

Compulsion IS a thing.

[guylining]

oh, yeah

we should tell her how to avoid that, too

[cosmicmistake]

[ avoid. right. that's... totally what hope meant when she brought elle into the conversation. avoid being compelled. ]

I'll let you do it, I'll keep working on finding someone remotely appropriate for my dad.

[guylining]

hey i like elle

god i feel like i don't know enough people here, though.
have you met ororo?

[cosmicmistake]

I don't dislike Elle.

You saw the guest list at my party. I don't know a lot of women, but also I don't think my dad's all that picky.
