Detention (10-15-05)

[crazyvampchick]

Drusilla waits in the room for this week's students with detention. Eyeless porcelain dolls in various states of disrepair are scattered throughout the room. On the cracked blackboard is written the names of the students with detention this weekend. A slide projector sits in the room and off to the side a screen has been set up.

Anders
Carrie Bradshaw
Londo Mollari
Jayne Cobb
Buffy Summers
Roy Mustang
Beka Valentine
Rory Gilmore
Logan Echolls
Jake Gavin
Lilly Kane

Drusilla paces at the front of the classroom, waiting for everyone to arrive.

ETA: OOC: Dru isn't letting anyone out until everyone who isn't skipping out on detention says what they've done wrong. This means, Jayne and Buffy, that you guys should at least reply once. Come on, everyone else is playing along. Your characters are stuck here; let's try and make it fun for the players, at least.

Also ETA: OOC: If Buffy hasn't responded by midnight, Dru lets everyone go. Presume your entire Saturday is completely shot.

OOC: I'm willing to roleplay my way through detention if you are... However, it has to be slowly, as RL leaves me with an infant to deal with all day.

Beka's hands tensed, but she forced herself to let go of pointless frustration. "Not getting caught is a survival skill, not a justification." With a nod to Logan and Jake and thoughts of absent Rory, Krycek and Lily, she continued, "Being at a party, playing Truth or Dare, would've given Logan context, and choices."

Drusilla shook her head sadly. "Shame, shame," she said. "Trying to excuse away not wanting to be caught. Trying to make everything better by telling them you didn't mean to hurt them, when really you're just mad you got caught."

"Really," purred Drusilla, leaning forward, her eyes glinting hard in the light. "So it's all right to try to hurt someone if you make it into a game? You don't sound very sorry at all."

(OOC: OK to have this be when the curtain gets closed?)

OOC: Check with Jerusalem, as he's the one who closed the curtain. Dru had no say over it at all.

OOC: *nod* I'm just going to respond as though she didn't see them, and ignore the question all together. It doesn't matter a lot, I just wanted clear continuity.

OOC: The viewing area was open, and another student saw them, but that student was expecting them. Check with Bel and Angelus then; I don't want to make a call for their characters without their consent.

Beka studied Drusilla, trying to figure out where this was going. Doesn't matter, Valentine. You're the mouse. She's the cat. Best you can do is provide good sport.

Beka spread her hands. "Rumor has it you read minds. If so, then you know what I'm thinking. Maybe better than I do. You say I'm mad for getting caught. I probably am."

Then she smiled a little and her voice dropped. "As for the other, that depends on the game. And the players."

Drusilla pointed at a desk. "Go and sit," she said. "We needn't play dress-up any more."

Beka sits and does nothing she is not specifically told to do.


(OOC: I'm gone for the night. If the detention thing happens, assume Beka accepts glumly but silently and will take the matter up with the Dean.)
