[Partner Finding Post]

Characters: Anyone participating in Leashes Event
Setting: Entire Tower
Format: Party Style
Summary: A general open post for finding partners in the Leashes Event.
Warnings: As a party style post, you create your own threads. If you have questionable content in your threads, please warn in the subjects.



As the tower awoke to the leashes binding them to the others, they were of course curious. And those who weren't...well perhaps the person on the other end came to find them. Knowing who you're attached to and feeling is probably for the best.

Nothing seems to be just what it seems in this place after all.



[[ We created a mingling post due to popular demand. Of course if you've already created a post you don't have to use this one! It's just for those who haven't gotten to that point quite yet.]]

[ou] Castiel and [ou] Ienzo

[It didn't take terribly long for Ienzo to realize that sometime while he was sleeping, a leash of all things had been attached to his collar. Already with a bad feeling about this, the boy attempted to look for the other end -- only to discover that it was going directly through a wall.]

[Wot.]

[But of course, he is Not Standing For This, and so he opens the nearest door and walks slowly into the hallway. Whatever force was tethering him with this thing had to be nearby... or maybe it wasn't...]

[ The strange tube of swirling violet and yellow connected to his collar didn't go unnoticed by Castiel. Intrigued, especially since it disappeared into the walls, the angel went to investigate it, following the leash up towards the source. ]

[He wandered around for quite a while; occasionally the leash would jerk to one side and Ienzo would be forced to take a ridiculous new path to keep following it (or he'd be forced to go back the way he came). And as if by magic, Ienzo eventually turned a corner to find the collar in a straight line, with no walls in the way, staring at the thing on the other end.]

[And it appeared for all intents and purposes to be a normal human being. So the thing to do in this situation was obviously to stand in the hallway and watch.]

[ So he was leashed to a human boy. This... seems alright.

And thus Castiel will stare at the other person on the leash. ]

[For once, Ienzo bothers to take the incentive and actually speaks, since it's clear the two of them will get nothing done sitting there and looking at one another. He rather wants to get to the bottom of this.]

...do you know anything about this? [Just inches from a deadpan.]

[identity profile] thursdaywings.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
No. This is a new development.

[ And he continues to stare, trying to figure out the reasoning behind the leashes. ]

[identity profile] tempustemporum.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
nor do i. [So much for that avenue. He looks down at the leash and its mixing of the colors within; does that mean that the color inside was some kind of liquid or gel? Once again it springs the question of the purpose of these peculiar collars. In the meantime, however, Ienzo figures he ought to make the best of the awkward conversation and try to get some basic info out of his new associate.] ...what is your name, sir?

[identity profile] thursdaywings.livejournal.com 2011-09-14 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
I am Castiel.

[ No more words were said, and the angel stares down at the leash. The swirl of yellow and violet made no sense, other than it coming from their respective collars. ]

[identity profile] tempustemporum.livejournal.com 2011-09-14 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
...and i am ienzo. a pleasure to meet you, castiel. [Ienzo is being more formal than he typically is mostly due to the awkwardness of the situation. (He still sounds almost completely toneless.) However, somewhere in his mind, he's making a mental note to add Castiel's name and collar color to his little list.]

[identity profile] thursdaywings.livejournal.com 2011-09-14 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ Castiel nods, moving closer towards the boy. ] A strange way of allowing people to meet.

[identity profile] tempustemporum.livejournal.com 2011-09-14 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
...it is entirely possible they're merely trying to affect our state of mind... [Or they could be planning something horrible. He takes a few steps towards Castiel as well; at least he's been chained to someone tolerable.]

[identity profile] thursdaywings.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Mind alteration is not unheard of.

[identity profile] tempustemporum.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
...i meant in a psychological sense... but i suppose that is a possibility as well.

[identity profile] tempustemporum.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods in agreement. If he's going to be latched to someone for who knows how long, he's at least happy to know that it's not one of the numerous idiots roaming around.] ...chances are... the situation will become progressively worse. even if this seems like a minor issue now. [Like the power outage. He still tries not to think about what happened with the power outage. The flashlight, man... the flashlight...]

[identity profile] thursdaywings.livejournal.com 2011-09-17 11:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ Suddenly a flashback of the flashlight and the cat in the infirmary invaded his mind, but Castiel tries to shake it off. Why that certain memory resurfaces, he doesn't know. But... It might have a connection to this boy here. ]

Did you die in this tower?

[identity profile] tempustemporum.livejournal.com 2011-09-17 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
...yes. [For the first time in this conversation, his voice sounds slightly strangled.] ...did you?

[identity profile] thursdaywings.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[ The waver of emotion from Ienzo confirmed it, and Castiel sighs. ] Yes.

[identity profile] tempustemporum.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Okay then.] ...if you don't mind... would you... tell me what happened...? [He knows he shouldn't be digging this stuff up. But 'information plzzzzzz' is speaking up right about now, and it's very convincing.]

[identity profile] thursdaywings.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
There was a flashlight and a cat.

[ And that's all he has to say. ]

[identity profile] tempustemporum.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[...Oh.]

[Oh wow.]

[That's... very odd.]
...oh... i see...

[He doesn't think he really wants to mention the striking similarities.]

[identity profile] thursdaywings.livejournal.com 2011-09-19 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes.

[ And then, more silence. ]
