Chateau Grief 271

Narration(Xander): Parliament is falling apart. Every move I make to keep my personal influence out of politics results in total deadlock. Di is in way over her head and she’s losing control.

Narration(Xander): But even the Religious Nobility Community endorsed the Satanist Party rather than have me around.

Narration(Xander): That hurt. That stung. That makes me appreciate a little warmth on a frosty December morning.

Narration(Xander): She shouldn’t have been able to sneak up on me like that.

Narration(Xander): The roses are a sorry excuse for a peace offering. I couldn’t think of anything else.

Narration(Xander): That’s the curse of immortality we’ll have to make up sometime.

Narration(Xander): She hasn’t backed down. Now when I hurt her, not ever. Makes me all wobbly even now.

Narration(Xander): No, no no! I’m getting distracted. There will be no apologies to the old bat. There will be an amicable parting of ways.

Narration(Xander): I could wield a thunderbolt today and never think twice. The air is on fire with electricity.

Xander: Come out, Thanos Shane, you can’t hide from me.

Author Notes:

It's a great day. Tornado green.

271 Episode Recap : On second thought, maybe Xander with power tools is not a good idea. He’s building his garden fence back together, and this should be relatively simple right, but what with the obsessing over politics…maybe a bit of worry about his new Prime Minister…and the feeling of being rejected by everyone and everything…well he starts making that face again. Of course he’s mostly worried about Kore and starts decreeing that they’re immortal and *going to be friends*. While wielding an ax. In fact the flowers are apparently for her. So she’d better be grateful and stuff. Just she’d better not fold because Xander’s having a ball just the way things are. He’s put on the pressure, and she’s still fighting. This is exactly what happens when a cat brings a mouse inside to jump on it a bunch of times until it’s dead. Don’t want it to break too fast or it’s no fun. Or is that just my wretched cat? Anyone? Yeah and apparently Shane is somewhere going to make an entrance in this scene stage left. Right as Xander’s trending in the Jupiter direction more than the Saturn one, by Jove.
