[Sveta's back, friends! She's on the deck, dressed as if going to a ceremony. A long white dress whispers around her ankles and her hair falls loose around her face. She looks as if she had been crying once, but has since brushed it off, revealing only a few faint splotches of red around her eyes. She sets the camera down and takes a deep breath.]

Destiny. We're all supposed to have one, yes? We're all supposed to follow it. But I never knew you could change it.

[She holds up her hands to show them. They're covered in a faint white dust which she brushes off quickly, creating a small cloud.]

Chalkdust. [She gives the camera a very serious look.] It might as well be bloodstains. [She reaches into a small purse and pulls out a cigarette, lighting it quickly. Yeah. Sveta smokes. Enjoy that.]

Fuck them. I'm not going back.

[Private to Ardent]

I can erase Destiny. They asked me to erase the Destiny of a young boy.

[Private to Howie]

I'm back. [A soft laugh.] Obviously. He didn't stop me.

[Filtered to Friends]

Give me tonight. Then tomorrow, get me drunk. Or something.

[[OOC: So. Apologies for the Sveta spam again. BUT...Sveta's had a canon update, yay! The details of that will come later! For now, she's just a little freaked out. Also, feel free to spam if you want. She'll be up on deck for a while.]

...playing God? [She frowns, but pulls the small box out of her bag to show him. Inside was the chalk, but she didn't dare open it.]

It's here.

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

Writing fate. Like Tak did.

[He looks very wary of it.]

Is that box remotely secure?

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I'm not playing god. [Pout.]

And what do you mean by secure?

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

You would have been.

Who can get in it? Could I get in it if I just happened to pick it up?

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

No.

You could. But it would be useless to you. I'm the only person it works for.

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

That doesn't change what it is.

I... have an unbreakable box.

Well, nearly.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Why do you have an unbreakable box?

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

For the Cube.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I'm going to keep the Chalk, Ardent.

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

Then you can have the box to keep it in.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

What about the Cube?

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

I can keep it on me. I'm the only person I can trust with it.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

No. It's alright. Keep your box, Ardent. And I'll keep this with me.

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

The chalk is more dangerous than the cube. It should never be used.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I'm the only one who can, Ardent. But it doesn't work here. I know that it doesn't.

It's not dangerous. It's just chalk.

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

It's the principle of it.

I'm the only one who can destroy the Cube. I'd like to protect it from even myself.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

No.

I'll try and spell the box myself.

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

Do you want some octiron?

I have a little left.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Alright. I don't know if that will help. I don't have my powers at home.

But...maybe it will help.

Re: private

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

I have no use for it, so you might as well try to.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Thank you.
