001 || [Open to All]

It was very difficult to get things done when your best friend (or boyfriend or mate or whatever the appropriate title actually was) was living in your head. Goliath did his best to allow Elisa to remain in control of her own body, but it wasn’t easy. For either of them.

After all, as well as sharing a body, they shared thoughts and feelings. For Elisa, who was far from forthcoming when it came to her emotions, it was proving to be a constant battle. In many ways, it would have been easier to share with a stranger. They’d reached a comfortable balance in their relationship since she’d woken up from the pods and she didn’t want to disturb that. Not when things were going so well.

If the way that Goliath kept trying to focus on his favourite plays and novels was any indication, the gargoyle was finding it just as hard to keep things that he wouldn’t ordinarily share concealed. And spending a long time as a human was definitely something it would take him a long time to get used it. Elisa sincerely hoped that he wouldn’t have to get used to it. They knew who was responsible for the chaos now. (The goddess, if that was what she really was, hadn’t been particularly secretive.) What they didn’t know was how to persuade her to change them back.

They’d find out.

OOC: Open to anyone who would like to bother Goliath and / or Elisa while they're stuck together during the soulcatcher plot.

Trying to Get to Sleep || [Closed]

[newyorkbynight.livejournal.com]

Elisa was used to running on little or no sleep, but she was only human, even if a gargoyle was currently sharing her body. She needed to rest, but, as exhausted as she was, that was proving to be easier said that done.

It wasn’t Goliath’s fault. He was used to the stone sleep, which was swift and immediate and very different to the way that things worked for a human. The process of falling asleep was utterly unfamiliar to him.

She tried to reminded herself of that as he unintentionally pulled her back form the edge of slumber yet again, opening her eyes to gaze up at the ceiling of her bedroom in the castle with a tired sigh.

Dream Sharing || [Closed]

[newyorkbynight.livejournal.com]

They’d managed to drift off to sleep eventually, but dreams were just as unfamiliar to gargoyles as the concept of falling asleep. It was still going to be a long night.

Elisa woke up in her old bedroom in her parent’s house, knowing without explanation and without needing to think about it that she was late for work. Except, suddenly, it wasn’t work that she was late for, it was school. Her mother was calling her from downstairs and she knew she had to hurry if she wanted to make breakfast before Derek ate everything worth eating.

She jumped out of bed and grabbed her familiar red leather jacket from the back of her chair as she hurried to open the door, but when she left her bedroom it was to step out into the clock tower. Her family – sitting around a table in front of the clock face – didn’t appear to have noticed the sleeping gargoyles, though it look like her mother had cooked extra in case they were hungry when they woke up after sunset.

uh I hope I am doing this right

Atom stopped off at Castle Wyvern on a whim -- Goliath had said he could visit, right? As long as he was at home. Maybe he'd let Atom read some of his books!

The castle seemed pretty quiet today, though. Atom wondered if anyone was around. Well... there had to be a door knocker or a bell or something, right? If not, he could just yell.

At some point, Peter had moved the Spider-Mobile Mark 2 over to the castle, and at the moment was working on the underside

Rolling out on the dolly to grab a tool, he saw Elisa.

"Hey. Still stuck together?"
