Chateau Grief 263

Kore: Rhelan, you don’t mind dropping me off in town on your way?

Kore: I think I should make some sort of public announcement to reassure my constituents.

Grant: They’re not your constituents until you’re elected.

Grant: Right now they’re just your groupies.

Kore: And for how much longer if word gets out what happened? I left the Prime Minister in Mr. Shane’s room.

Grant: Shane, huh? Another seizure? Glad it wasn’t you and him.

Kore: Di was giving me this look, like I’d done something unforgivable. Is this what his telepathy feels like?

Kore: No matter what I do, it tears my world apart? Destroys everyone I love? I thought I saved them.

Kore: And this is my thanks? Gosh he’s really getting to me, isn’t he?

Grant: Your hair is getting longer.

Kore: Yeah well, hair does that.

Grant: You people create your own problems. I have no sympathy.

Narration(Kore): But he laughs.

Author Notes:

A wild hallway appears! Xander has probably been redecorating while no one was looking.

 characters: Kore and Grant

Episode Recap:  

So Kore goes chasing after Grant and starts trying to bum a ride downtown or something. For political reasons. Teleportation is not mentioned. However, Grant seems to warm up to her, all is forgiven for whatever made him storm off apparently. Kore worries that her and Di’s political plan to oust Xander might hit a snag if everyone discovers that the forces of Di-arkness were unable to prevent this little disaster. Which Shane caused. This is the first Grant has heard of the cause, he’d been assuming this was a Kore/Xander squabble and he’s relieved. Kore asks Grant for advice on navigating the new ‘Xander rules’ style world she’s been thrust into. All power, no credit. Grant is confused and leery if not downright terrified. I wonder what he’s thinking tbh. Anyways everyone kisses and makes up and Grant will give Kore the ride into town that she doesn’t actually need. Real Kore, the one who is schizo frantic shaky angry and trapped is gone. Like a light switch.
