boston week: part one!

[thewonderkitten.livejournal.com]

Welcome to Boston, Massachusetts! We hope you've found your accommodations to your liking. It's Christmas week, so the streets are bustling along nicely, the trees are up, and decorations line Faneuil Hall. No snow just yet, but we hope you like the 30°F weather! (Might want to bundle up.)

Even around this time of year, there's much to be done in the city -- take a gander at some of the potential attractions on your brochure and get out there to go enjoy the sights!

((Host note: I'm starting the week off easy with a general RP, but come Wednesday, expect a new post with -- gasp -- tasks! Unfortunately, I just won't be a stable enough presence to maintain what I have planned until then. So for now, get settled in and have fun!

Feel free to go all around the city -- I've outlined/summarized some key areas to hit up in the list up there. If you're stumped on somewhere to go, hit up the mod thread and I'll make sure to point you in the right direction!))

*makes her way into a bar to look for work, while she's displaced, it's no reason to not try*

*she grins a little, liking that she's not gonna have to dance on the tables to work here, though she wonders if the money is the same*

*shrugs a little, speaking to herself under her breath*

Better than getting stared at by dirty, greasy slimeballs.

*runs through the trails in the park at a brisk pace, wanting to let loose, but knowing that she can't while someone might be watching, and it frustrates her, she lets out a small growl*

*is enjoying shopping at the boutiques in the North End, though all the traveling her family does is suddenly also worrying her*

At least it isn't Mystic Falls.

*wanders around, taking in all the artwork, and sees him drawing intently*

*she thinks for a moment that she shouldn't interrupt him, but she kind of wants to talk to him anyway*

You know...you can buy prints of the paintings in the gift shop.

Oh, having the painting isn't really the point.

*puts a vase full of white and pink roses on the bedside table*

*moves around the room adjusting little things, so it will be perfect when Lydia arrives*

*finally decides that everything is good enough and settles down in a chair with a book, to wait*

-Kurt

[ondragonflywing.livejournal.com]

*she's running a little behind and she's sure Kurt's already there. She's sure he's already been there for a little while, because he would have checked in and gotten things set up*

*Prada scampers next to her, seemingly excited to be somewhere new, encountering new smells and new people*

*she gets a key for the room from the front desk*

Come on Prada. *she coos to the puppy* Let's go get settled in and say hi to Kurt.

*they ride the elevator up and she picks Prada up, carrying her to the room, having left her things downstairs for the bellhop, quite a few bags, and all of Prada's accouterments*

*she uses the key to open the door*

Knock, knock.

*said as she pushes it open, taking in the room, and the flowers that she knows are meant for her from him*

*she grins widely*

It's beautiful. They're beautiful.

*already a little out of sorts with all this Tau'ri domesticity and watching a happier family than hers ever was, the question makes her wince a little and she shares a look with John before turning back to Samantha with a bright smile for the little girl's benefit*

Thank you, I like you too, sweetheart.
