House of Cards RP

When life gives you lemons, you...

SWS and SSWS

Grace has kept largely to herself the last few weeks, not wanting a repeat of her run-in with Julien, or to bring anymore notice to herself from the King of Spades. With Ethan off doing errands and the few friends she'd made being otherwise busy, it was easy for her to get lost in her chores and find a pattern of work and sleep. Until today. Today, she needed a break, which is why you can find her taking advantage of the weather and reading in the gardens.

Dafydd is retired from spying, circulate the rumors. He's happy to let that rumor spread while at the same time spending the evening at home, tweaking the system he's using to keep passing information to Elisha. Rebeckah in Inventory is quick and sharp and came up with a brilliant system of filling out inventory forms in code, and passive intelligence-gathering is more retired than he'd been in the past, after all.

Making an experimental batch of saffron-rose choux à la crème just means he's multitasking. Come by to talk to him (in his rooms or the Club kitchen) and end up as one of his test subjects.

When the jeans arrived over the weekend, it struck her this idea was insane. It struck her twice over when the tweed came and so did the leopard prints. However, she was going to do this. She would make it happen. About 10am on Wednesday morning, Sandy shot a text at Zoe that the Hearts were about to slip in. Hadyn and Jeannie were invited but they could chose if they wanted to come or not. She noted if they wanted to help with packing things up, they should go through the tunnels, if they wanted to help distract, just saunter on in.

Still, the directions were the same.

Go to each room starting with Sieben's. Absolutely under no circumstances should they damage anything. Not one thing. Fold, slip into the suitcase and get the next expensive pair of pants. Get all of them, move quickly. They had a lovely distraction with Zoe and her report. Once she provided distraction with Nicholas, Sandy would slip back up to the upper tier wing and help the girls finish getting the Doctor's things together. If things looked like Joon needed to talk to Nicholas, she'd text the other Six. Once that was done, Sandy would then text Meghana to go talk to Vincent. Fortunately Meghana was willing to talk to her ex if it would pull a fabulous prank on Nicholas (who apparently Meghana liked as a brother, too, what the HELL) and Sieben (who she didn't like). Sandy's cousin Edgar would be helping out, too.

It would all go to plan or she'd make it work.

[OOC: There will be 3 threads. Two of which are closed. The last one will be open. It shall be noted in each thread who is in and which is open.]

Jetlag sucked. But since sleep was more or less impossible, Ethan decided to "head to the office" and get a jump start on the day, since he had things to do after the proverbial whistle at five. Such as pack and move. He still had the usual trinkets to deliver; little gifts for those Cards with whom he was close, but there was the matter of "getting things settled" in the new assignment first.

It's that time again; inventory time. Rylan's going through the Club armory, checking that things are where they should be and no one's slacking off on taking care of the equipment. And if there is shoddy work going on, then you can say bye-bye to Mr. Nice-Ry.


(ooc - I wasn't aware that fallenpips was previously in charge of the armory and had it kept up to par. For anyone follow/playing, please ignore the ruinous state of the armory. Consider it retconned. All's sunshine and daisies.)
