An Unexplored Area of the Woods, Sunday afternoon

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker was wandering through the woods, much like Maleficent or Snow White's Stepmother, gathering poison things and singing a malevolent tune to frighten the squirrels away.

Boil them up
Cut them up
Slice them up
Yum!
Stab them
Knife them
Slice them
Dice them
Burn their little ears...

Still working on that death plot for Ronan, of course.

[ooc: for one! But you can wander through and miss seeing the plottery, or use the woods for your own nefarious purposes at your leisure.]

Tony was going for his normal walk in the unexplored wooded area when he happened upon Parker. His beautiful, evil woman...

"It's been some time..."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Ooooo. Goatee. "Too long," Parker smoldered at him. "How have you been, what are you up to, and I need your help. Desperately." She molded herself against him. "And you know I'll do anything for you."

[not-ironmaiden.livejournal.com]

"What's in it for me?" Oh, blast! If only he actually remembered her name!

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker smirked, and ran her fingers along his jaw. "Whatever you want. You know I'll raise the dead for you, honey."

Damn. Tino? No, that wasn't it....

[not-ironmaiden.livejournal.com]

Cindy? No, that wasn't evil enough.

""And have," Tony replied. "What is it you want, my dark pet?"

"Aside from you, here, now, fast, hot, now?" Parker asked, reaching for the fly of his pants. "My husband dead. You're okay with that, right?"

[not-ironmaiden.livejournal.com]

"Have I ever not been good with it?" Tony asked, pushing her against a tree. It was no Mayoral desk, but it would do.

It was then the commercials came on screen and people missed out on the best parts of this.

But they did come back to the pair, covered in a convenient sheet as they smoked and looked very proud of themselves.

Charles was walking smugly through the woods. Why? Because he was Charles Stark-Bass.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

And there was John Herbert Nelson Sheppard the third, stalking him through the woods. Why? To destroy his life and take his scarf.

If only Ben had brought him the dirt on Charles before the wedding. John didn't need lots of words to show his anger at Charles destroying the wedding with his really effing hot hooker. He just needed one, "Bass!"

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Charles cringed at the voice but there was a look of smug satisfaction on his face when he turned to face John. The happy events at the wedding still made him happy.

"Sheppard," Charles said calmly. "What a surprise. I thought you'd be off crying about your lost inheritance for at least a couple more hours."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

John sniffed, it had been a lot of money, after all. "Are you aware of the years I put in to getting that damned diamond mine? The family functions? Kissing Skywalker's ass on a regular basis? Pretending to give a shit about his stupid mullet? But no, you couldn't let me just have it, could you?"

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"You've known all along what you have to do in order to for me to leave you be," Charles said, glaring. "Admit that I wore the scarf first!"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

John clutched at his scarf with one hand. "Never! My father gave me this scarf the day he left me at the orphanage just after my mother died giving birth to my stillborn brother!"

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"You lie! This scarf is a family trademark! It was given to me after my mother died shortly after I was born!" Charles argued. No, he didn't realize how similar the stories were. "Admit it! You just wear it because you wish you could be everything that I am!"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"I don't care who you are, Bass, just that you're trying to be me!" John complained, so much like an older sibling. "Admit it, that's why you sleep with every woman I go anywhere near."

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"No, I do that because I feel like I should show them what it's like to sleep with a real man," he said. Oh yeah. He went there.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

He did not just go there. John moved to get in Charles' face. "Take. That. Back."

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Oh? Did I hit touch a nerve, John?" Charles asked. "The truth hurts, doesn't it?"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"No, but I've heard my fist in your face sure does," John replied, stepping back to throw a right hook at Charles' jaw.

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Charles did not see that coming. At all. The one thing you could say about Charles getting punched was that his hair flipped beautifully as his head whipped back.

"You're going to pay for that," Charles promised, dabbing blood from his lip with his hand. Nobody makes me bleed my own blood!

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

It was an impressive sight. "I'd like to see you try to collect," John replied, crossing his arms and feeling very pleased with himself. Making Charles Bass bleed was potentially the highlight of his day.

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Charles glared again and swiftly retaliated by swinging his fist towards John's nose.

His punches were pretty weak but the poor boy did his best to make it hurt.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

John's nose made a cracking sound as Charles' fist connected and he grimaced in pain. "Not cool, Bass!"

Frowning deeply, John reached to grab for Charles' scarf.

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Oh hell no. Nobody touches his scarf. Infuriated, Charles reached out and grabbed John's scarf in turn.

Take that!

Ben was leaving town, he was! He just wanted to take a walk through the woods beforehand.

Hark, what was that? A fight happening on his island? Oh hell to the no.

"Freeze!" Ben said, charging out of the woods. "Don't move."

He didn't know why he was using the stern cop talk but oh well.
