"It's further than it was. I've got the exposition in the first movement pretty much ironed out and I'm starting to develop the themes. I still need to orchestrate more carefully in the exposition, the harmonics are a little bit off. The development is moving along pretty well, although it's becoming quite contrapuntal and will take a short eternity to write, but at least I have something on paper."

I think I'll stick to the easy stuff...like cooking.

I think I'll stick to the easy stuff...like cooking.

"If cooking's so easy how come everything I make comes out looking like something from a bad horror film?"

You only need to learn a few basic techniques. After that, your personal tastes can lead you on.

Besides...if I can do it, anyone can do it.

Sleep well, Traja...

*Walks up to the club, exhausted but happy*

*Looks inside club, seems very quite.*

*Talks to hotel attendant, gets his key and climbs up to his room*

*stumbles in looking very ruffled and sleepy*
Hello?

*halfwalks, half crawls up the stairs to his room where he crashes on his bed*

*staggers in and crashes on the couch*

*skips downstairs humming to herself happily* hello?

Hello, boss.

Hey! *smiles* how's things?

Wonderful.

You seem very happy...

that's because i am happy!

We can never have too many happy people.

*groans, rubs his eyes and sits up*
Hey Vex, Tinks... hows life?

We can never have too many happy people.
that's very true!

I'll bet it is;)

How about a Dr. Pepper?

I visited her twice in the hospital. Poor thing is always sick, it seems.

*comes down sleepy*
Hello

Hey, LP...

*glares at Vex*
Hey Vex. Been saving any lives lately?

I apologize for my behavior the other day, LP. It was inexcusable.

You're damn right you are. What the HELL were you thinking?

I wasn't thinking...

That's a load of crap Vex and you know it. Don't give me any bullshit.

what's up LP?

I have things I need to tend to in the kitchen. Enjoy the rest of your day...

*exits*

Hey Tink. I'm really tired right now.

*just watches Vex leave, but doesn't say a word to him*

*appears at the bar quietly*

*In the distant echo of a breaking dawn, you could hear the unmistakable rumble of a large bore big block firing away. A thin layer of fog hung silvery and low over the roadway, disguising the lines and contours that decorated the asphalt like a mysterious veil. The thunderous roar grew rougher, and louder as it drew nearer to its destination – beating a low toned symphony of power into the morning quiet. By the time the sound was upon the club, the headlights of the mysterious suede black ‘54 had pierced through the thick fog like two glowing knives cutting through silk.

The convertible slowed as it approached the club, allowing the debris scattered at the driver’s feet to settle. He reached down and pulled up a half empty bottle of amber liquid, and biting the cork, opened the bottle with a pull of his free hand. Spitting the cork on the floorboards, he took down the remaining contents and parked under the darkness of a tree at the entrance to the club. Tears ran hot down the pallor of his cheeks as he dropped his head to the steering wheel, and ran down his hand onto the empty bottle. The leafless skeleton branches of winter trees scraped against one another over his seemingly lifeless body as he wept, and several minutes had passed before he moved.

Dropping the bottle, he reached down beside himself onto the torn leather seat to pick up an aging sepia photograph… a picture of two small boys. His face, already a ghostly pale seemed to fade away entirely as he looked deeply into the picture – running his fingers cautiously over the images. He dropped the picture into a small stack of similar photographs on the seat and pushed his drunken body away from the wheel, sat deep back into the seat and drew in a deep breath as he dried his bloodshot eyes.

The car was littered with faded receipts from cheap roadside diners and gas depots that would have chronicled almost every road in the country. Empty food containers were outnumbered only by the sheer volume of empty whiskey bottles that seemed to form the backseat of his car. He was on the run - and it was quite apparent, at a glance, that whatever this person was running from had caught up to him. Beyond that it had worked on him quite a number when it did so. His suit, soiled and torn clung to the thin remains of what once was a man – just barely taking prominence away from his knuckles worn bare and bloody from brawling.

The strange figure pulled his hands into his face and wiped the lines away from his now closed eyes. When he opened them again several minutes later, they were stunned by the sunlight, and he winced at its painful brightness. He pulled hard on the handle and pushed open the door, falling to the ground beside the car as he tumbled out. He lay there half stunned for a second, not sure how to compose his drunken body, before grabbing onto the car and righting his mangled frame. He stumbled over himself a little as he tried to push his tired corpse into the beat, fighting the sleep that was overcoming him as he walked slowly through the large wooden doors.

The occupants in the bar looked at him confused at first, unsure of who, or even what they were witnessing… but he ignored the stares and continued in towards the bar. Taking off his moth-eaten overcoat, he slung himself into one of the chairs at a small table in a darkened corner where no one else sat. Without uttering a sound or looking around to give anyone a look at him – he laid his head down into the folds of his coat, which he had piled in front of him on the table. As he slumped over the table top, his tight shirt exposed the extent of his un-health – the ribs on his back standing out like ties on a railroad track. With a vexing sigh, he drifted quickly into unconsciousness – and so remained without motion there, smelling of cheap perfume and even cheaper whiskey. There was no life left on his face but the tracks of his smouldering tears.*

*looks at the strange new man*
Dude.... are you okay?
*shakes his shoulder slightly*

*She grabbed a bottle of rum and leaned against the bar, looking on with mild interest*

*she turned round and looked towards the door as it opened, she just stood there stunned and dropped her glass on the floor, she watched Lasc walk over to the corner and collapse at a table, a small tear trickled down her cheek* Lasc...... *she ran over to him and kneeled down next to him and stroked his cheek*

You know him Tink?
*eyes Lasc suspiciously*
He's not supposed to be like this is he?

*looks at the strange new man*
Dude.... are you okay?
*shakes his shoulder slightly*
*...the man, pulled his frame up slowly and stared down the forgotten face. He gazed in with a look as distant and drawn away as ever could be imagined, the cold steel of his eyes cutting through the tension like a switchblade, and he muttered under his hot, kerosene like breath...*

leave me the fuck alone, I'm warning you...

ooc: good to see you LP

*steps back holding up his hands*
Sorry man.

OOC: of course :p :fluffle:

Lasc...............sweetheart...........what happened?

You know him Tink?
*eyes Lasc suspiciously*
He's not supposed to be like this is he?
he's an old friend

*she turned round and looked towards the door as it opened, she just stood there stunned and dropped her glass on the floor, she watched Lasc walk over to the corner and collapse at a table, a small tear trickled down her cheek* Lasc...... *she ran over to him and kneeled down next to him and stroked his cheek*
*He felt the familiar but unwelcome warmth of a hand on his cheek, and turned his face around to see the holder of this gesture... he barely recognized her in his state, but he knew he didnt want to see her right now...*
This is no business of yours, stay away. Just stay away.

I'm not leaving you like this

*silver eyes in a dark corner watches cautiously*

He needs some sleep and a small bowl of soup, not too much or too filling so he doesn't vomit, before we can expect to get anything of his story out of him.

I'll have a black'n'tan (or half'n'half if you're Irish) while we are waiting, and perhaps a roast beef and provalone, on sourdough, with mayo and light on the mustard, if you please. Could I perhaps have some potatoe chips with that? :cool:



OOC: Just because I am polite, doesn't mean I am soft or weak. :sniper: :mp5: ;)

I'll get this, Tink. Tend to your friend there.

*She folded her wings neatly to keep them out of the way before disappearing into the kitchen to fill the order. She set the requested items before the newcomer, along with a fresh pint of the right ol' stuff, and pulled a pint of Guinness for herself.*

*stands at the bar looking at Lasc worried*

*he pawed at the table, frustration mounting...*
he's an old friendHardly - you may remember me that way, but thats not the way I left - now its your turn to do some leaving, and leave me the fuck alone.

*the smell of whiskey was hot on his breath as the words poured out like liquid fire...*
I'm not leaving you like this
You already did. For the last time, stay away.

thank you

*She cast a discreet glance at the disheveled yet familiar stranger over the rim of her pint.*

Everything alright, Tink?

*he pawed at the table, frustration mounting...*
Hardly - you may remember me that way, but thats not the way I left - now its your turn to do some leaving, and leave me the fuck alone.

*the smell of whiskey was hot on his breath as the words poured out like liquid fire...*

*more tears rolled down her cheeks* i'm sorry we left things in the way we did, please Lasc, i want to help you

*She cast a discreet glance at the disheveled yet familiar stranger over the rim of her pint.*

Everything alright, Tink?
i dunno

*more tears rolled down her cheeks* i'm sorry we left things in the way we did, please Lasc, i want to help you
*his eyes burned hot with bloodshot rage as he stared down with defensive care*

Theres nothing you can do. Theres nothing anyone can do.

So take your goddamned do-gooder bullshit elsewhere ok - I dont need it, and I dont want it. Stay away.

i dunno
*She crossed her arms imposingly and with a hard glint in her eyes, then took to the pint again after a moment*

Here if you need me. I mean if he gets physical..

*the roar of the chopper announced his arrival*
Man, I've got to get the exhaust fixed

*Enters the bar, Takes one look around then proceeds to sit at the bar*

Johnny Walker Black, neat, please

*his eyes burned hot with bloodshot rage as he stared down with defensive care*

Theres nothing you can do. Theres nothing anyone can do.

So take your goddamned do-gooder bullshit elsewhere ok - I dont need it, and I dont want it. Stay away.
*she stroked his cheek again* please don't be like this with me

*She crossed her arms imposingly and with a hard glint in her eyes, then took to the pint again after a moment*

Here if you need me. I mean if he gets physical..
i don't think he'll get physical but thanks

-Something smelled different today. New people were here, but there was also a strange tension. He let himself in through the swinging door and peered into the main room warily.-

*looks at Gael*

More of the ssdd around here again I see, So what poor slob got his heart broken by Tink today?

i don't think he'll get physical but thanks
*She nods in understanding, but decides to keep an eye on the situation. Drunks had a predictable way of making themselves unpredictable. Glances over, hearing GnT step in.*

I'm not so sure that's what is going on. And he's from back in the old days anyhow. Well, relatively speaking.

-Something smelled different today. New people were here, but there was also a strange tension. He let himself in through the swinging door and peered into the main room warily.-

*Nods his head in greeting to the wolf*

Welcome back

Thanks, and Tullamore will do, I remember that much from before the expolsion.

*Nods his head in greeting to the wolf*

Welcome back
-Pins back his ears in hostility and backs up a few steps toward the door.-

* her muzzle lifts as she scents wolf*
is that you little brother?

* her muzzle lifts as she scents wolf*
is that you little brother?
Mistriss?

-Darts a look around the room with half an eye on the fairy-eater-

*stands and comes out of the shadowed corner shaking so her silver pelt gleams dully in the light*

It is alright, come... join me here

*she stroked his cheek again* please don't be like this with me
*his face was getting redder, confusing the pallor of his brow with the red on his cheeks and the whiskey on his breath...*
if you want to be usefull, you can get me a bottle of bourbon - but don't expect a conversation, Im here to drink - not to talk.
*with that he indignantly reached into the waist pocket of his overcoat and carefully withdrew a roll of bills, from with he pulled several and dropped them on the table. With the bills, a small plastic bag came, falling down to the floor at his feet, it was filled with a curious white substance. Lasc reached quickly to pick it up...*

-Pins back his ears in hostility and backs up a few steps toward the door.-
Relax, wolves aren't the only one that can change.

-He trotted quickly across the room to her and took a seat by her side. His gray fur helped conceal most of him in the shadows.-

i think you've had enough to drink

*when the small plastic bag dropped to floor, she looked down at it then at Lasc and then stopped his hand as he went to pick it up and picked it up herself* what's this?

I understand your reluctance to trust humanity, but not all are bad. How have you been little brother? Are you hungry?

More of the ssdd around here again I see, So what poor slob got his heart broken by Tink today?
*overhearing the conversation, Lasc looked up and glared, muttering under his breath...*
you better watch your fucking mouth, or the next time it opens might be the last time...

*She'd seen the bag as well, and let her wings unfold to hang by her sides. Tink was a curious calm when she picked it up. She leaned against the bar on her hip, suddenly taking much more interest in the situation.*

I understand your reluctance to trust humanity, but not all are bad. How have you been little brother? Are you hungry?
Hungry, yes. I'm doing better though. I got hurt when the hunters came, and healing has been slow, but I get better all the time.

*turns back to Gael*
Smells like trouble.

*overhearing the conversation, Lasc looked up and glared, muttering under his breath...*
you better watch your fucking mouth, or the next time it opens might be the last time...
Save your breath for someone you can kill littleman

i think you've had enough to drink
*his eyes narrowed, and he stared with a deep seeded hatred...*
Ill tell you when Ive had enough to drink
*when the small plastic bag dropped to floor, she looked down at it then at Lasc and then stopped his hand as he went to pick it up and picked it up herself* what's this?
*he snatched the bag back quickly from her shaking hands...*
just never you friggen mind, give me that.

Save your breath for someone you can kill littleman
Don't start something. I mean it.

*she shakes her head in understanding and stands*

wait here, I brought something for you in case you showed tonight

*she dashes off like a silver streak out the front door... and after a few moments comes back in with a good size haunch of venison in her jaws. She goes back to the place she was and lays it before him*

A gesture of goodwill, my mate and I would like to find who did that to you and also it seems to others of our kind

*his eyes narrowed, and he stared with a deep seeded hatred...*
Ill tell you when Ive had enough to drink

*he snatched the bag back quickly from her shaking hands...*
just never you friggen mind, give me that.
well actually i will friggin mind if you're gonna bring drugs into my club!

Lasc, i don't know what's happened to you but you're only gonna make everything worse by drinking excessively and taking drugs!

Drunk and drugs?

I will help if his irrationality leads him from verbal to physical assault.

*she shakes her head in understanding and stands*

Thank you!

-He tore into the meat hungrily.-

*her eyes sparkle in happiness as she watches him eat*

my pleasure little brother..

*her head then turns keeping half an eye on the developing situation*

OOC: Sorry, I have a meeting to get to. Back later if I can.

IC:
My thanks, mistress. And my thanks to your mate as well. We will speak more of the hunters later.

-He took the meat in his jaws and let himself out. It seemed more natural to be eating outside anyhow.-

well actually i will friggin mind if you're gonna bring drugs into my club!

Lasc, i don't know what's happened to you but you're only gonna make everything worse by drinking excessively and taking drugs!
*he looked up with a heavily persecuting stare, his iron like skin tense and wrought with anger...*

Fuck it then... I have enough in my bloody car to get me through the night.

Ive had quite enough of this bullshit, I'm leaving.

*with that he stood sharply, knocking the chair over, and several items off of the table, he staggered and stumbled as he attempted to walk to the door - glaring at the remaining occupants of the club...*

fucking sheep

*finding the chair board that ran around the perimiter of the clubs interior, Lasc righted himself and led himself out of the bar into the cool winter air...*

*she nods and returns to her place in the shadows watching to see what might happen with the soul sick man*

OOC: catch ya later! *smiles*

I don't think he should be driving in that state..

*he looked up with a heavily persecuting stare, his iron like skin tense and wrought with anger...*

*she ran outside after him, threw her arms around him and hugged him tightly* i know you're angry with me right now but please come back again, you're really special to me and it would kill me if you went away again and i never knew where you were and how you're doing, and at least let me call you a cab, you can't drive in this state *she took his keys off him, kissed him gently on his lips and slowly headed back inside and rung for a taxi*

Well I think the situation has been diffused..

*She turned to the bar and took to the pint again*

Pity, that.

*wanders in in time to see a familiar figure head out*
Merc? Can't be, haven't seen him in a long time.
*he took another look and backed into the bar*
Tinks, there's a druggie outside. You want to deal with it?

(ooc: Lasc not Merc)

Hey there Jon.

Well if the excitement is over I'm going to take a nap.

By the way, thank you Gaeltach for food and drink, it was good.

Well if the excitement is over I'm going to take a nap.

By the way, thank you Gaeltach for food and drink, it was good.
You're very welcome. And you can call me Gael.

*smiles*

GAEL! Long time no see!
Tinks? Whats wrong?
*goes over and hugs Tinks*


ooc: I know, but all he could see were tattered and torn clothes, which he always associated with Merc. He didn't look too closely.

ooc: I know, but all he could see were tattered and torn clothes, which he always associated with Merc. He didn't look too closely.
*she hugged him tightly and didn't let go* Lasc's back and he looks rough, his clothes are torn and he looks tired and worn out and he was drunk and a packet of drugs fell out of his pocket and he hates me

ooc: ok, fair does

Oook, if you two are gonna be like that for a while, I'm gonna go out back and see what I can't find to break. Lasc got me all excited, and now I need to take out some aggression.

*she ran outside after him, threw her arms around him and hugged him tightly* i know you're angry with me right now but please come back again, you're really special to me and it would kill me if you went away again and i never knew where you were and how you're doing, and at least let me call you a cab, you can't drive in this state *she took his keys off him, kissed him gently on his lips and slowly headed back inside and rung for a taxi*
*Ignoring the feeble attempt to regain respect, Lasc staggered his way towards his car, pulled hard to open the long heavy door and slunk down inside... At his hand almost instantly was another bottle of amber, which he promptly opened and drank from voraciously. He drew his wool coat sleeve across his lips, hot, and moist from the liquor. Lasc. laid the bottle down, almost empty now, and picked up the sepia photograph again. He stared... his eyes filled with tears and he closed them quickly to disguise this fact. Reaching down into the console, he chose a bottle from amidst the dozens of pill boxes available, unscrewed the cap and dropped several of the pills into his hand. His eyes were struck with a look of horror as he continued to stare... There wasnt enough whiskey in the world to hide the pain. There weren't enough pills to make him forget.*

We're not, don't worry Gael.
Lasc? Aaah ok, got it. That was Lasc outside.
*resists urge to slap himself*
Lasc? Drugs, drinks, hating you? Oh dear, wonder what happened to him. First things first, I'm sure he doesn't hate you, its just the alcohol talking.
*he held her tightly, letting her cry*

ooc: I really have to get some work done here

Im sure Ill be back again. Bye all.

OOC: Bye! :fluffle:

Bye Lasc

ooc: Bye Lasc!

OOC: Died down in here pretty quick. I think I'll head out and try to actually get stuff done.

OOC: Bye Gael. I'm just ghosting for now.

ooc: Bye Gael. I'm still waiting for Tinks to reply.

We're not, don't worry Gael.
Lasc? Aaah ok, got it. That was Lasc outside.

ooc: sorry, got distracted


you didn't talk to him, he hates me, and now he won't tell me what's wrong with him so i can't help him

you didn't talk to him, he hates me, and now he won't tell me what's wrong with him so i can't help him
Maybe he just needs time to sort himself out. We'll try and catch him sober sometime, see what he says, whats going on. Until then, maybe he wants to work it out for himself.
Alternatively... no, bad plan. I have an idea, but it may have bad repercussions, may be the only way. You want to hear it?

go on.......
At the rate Lascs going he's bound to pass out sooner or later. That cage we put Norti in when he went crazy? Maybe use it on Lasc. Put him in there, far from all drugs or alcohol. Try and convince him to tell us whats wrong. I know it sounds really wrong and bad, but it could crack his drug problem (no pun intended:p) and make him tell us whats wrong.

OOC: sorry my pc crashed, did I miss anything?

i dunno, he seems like he's been through a lot, that could break him

OOC: sorry my pc crashed, did I miss anything?
ooc: nope

ooc: nope
ooc: darn!

*Coughs hard and spits into a paper towel*

Wow this one's still whole!

*Places a dirty little fairy on the bar*

i dunno, he seems like he's been through a lot, that could break him
On the other hand, the last thing I want is for him to kill himself through drug abuse. It may be the only way.

Ok Tinks.
*squeezes then lets go, stroking her hair*
Will you be ok?

*walks outside*

*looks up*

Oh. Hello there Tullamore. Wanna help me break things?

*shrugs and continues swinging a large log against a tree until one or the other cracks in half*

*Drives up to the club, and in the distance she notices Gael breaking logs....*

Wonder who's upset Gael today!

*Enters the bar.*

Watches as Orchid walks in then goes over to her.

"Hello there, hows life? I believe I still owe you for yesterday. Sorry I had to rush off."

Lifts her up and slings her over his shoulder.

"Now, you trickled water on me, so I have to repay in kind. How does going for a swim in the lake fully clothed sound? Excellent, lets go."

Walks down towards the lake...

Argghh!

Put me down you....you....

*Starts kicking her legs wildly....*

Don't you dare.......help.....

Argghh!

Put me down you....you....

*Starts kicking her legs wildly....*

Don't you dare.......help.....
Sorry Orchid? Can't hear you there. Ho hum...
*walks down to the lake then drops her onto the bank next to it*
I think you learnt your lesson, don't you agree?
*runs back to the club*

*Chases Jon back inside*

You gave me a scare there!

*Runs up and starts to tickle him*

That was the general idea.
*squirms then wriggles free and runs after her, catching her and tickling her mercilessly*

*looks up*

Oh. Hello there Tullamore. Wanna help me break things?
Love to...but what are we breaking? I'd hate to break the wrong thing.

No...no stop please...I can't stand it....

Oh....please.....I won't do it again...promise!

Ok Tinks.
*squeezes then lets go, stroking her hair*
Will you be ok?
i'll be fine

(ooc: sorry distracted again)

*Looks around, sees a large rock*
*Picks up said rock*
*Looks around*
*Smash said rock into small rocks with his head*
*Begins eating the small rocks*

No...no stop please...I can't stand it....

Oh....please.....I won't do it again...promise!
Hmmm... I believe you.
*hugs*
Now if you shall excuse me, I will be off to bed.
Night Orchid.
*walks past Tinks and gently hugs her, looking into her eyes, concern and worry evident*
You're sure you're ok Tinks?

*looks around*
Hum, nobody around
*starts to dig a hole*

Hmmm... I believe you.
*hugs*
Now if you shall excuse me, I will be off to bed.
Night Orchid.
*walks past Tinks and gently hugs her, looking into her eyes, concern and worry evident*
You're sure you're ok Tinks?
*hugs* honestly, i'm fine

Night Jon...

*hugs* honestly, i'm fine
*smiles*
Ok, glad to hear it. If there's ever a problem, just let me know ok? I know how hard this must be for you, seeing Lasc like that. Night Tinks.
*kisses her on the forehead then walks upstairs*

Hi Tinks...more trouble?

Hi Tinks...more trouble?
yeah but i'll sort it

Good for you!

*Makes herself comfortable at the bar*

how's things? LP back yet?

Ummm. not that I know of.....

*Shrugs her shoulders*

Suppose I'll here from him when he is!

Yes....but I shouldn't have opened my big mouth.....

It always gets me into trouble....

LOL. :rolleyes:

*opens eyes, and pushes aside the empty bottle of Jack Spirit, he glances around, and then sighs*

Errr, yes....yes of course!

Hi there Sage....too much Jack Spirit again?

Hi there Sage....too much Jack Spirit again?
Ah...

*looks at the bottle*

It gets you that way sometimes....I know!

*Slouches in and looks around*

It gets you that way sometimes....I know!
*chuckles*

*Gets herself a glass of wine*

Anyone else want a drink?

*heads to a table and sits down*

*Gets herself a glass of wine*

*Grins to Sage...*

*Passes him another bottle.*

*walks down stairs in her robe coughing*

Rox...
*Runs over and hugs her.*

Something wrong hun?

*goes into the kitchen, makes a cup of tea and sits down at the table*

*weekly hugs back* I'm as sick as you can get I dont know what I have but it is horrable!

*With several logs and a few small trees now scattered into small pieces, she made her way down to the lake to wash the debris from her hands.*

:walks down stairs:
anyone home?

*goes back out into the bar* hey D, just the person, i havn't had chance to thank you yet

I have a high fever and in 14 mins I go back to the doc's for more blood tests. I cant even walk very well.


OOC: I have to have my boyfriend drive me cause I'm so drained.

dont worry about it Tink. just, stay away from sharp things for awhile.

He's barely left me out of his sight since it started happening he's wonderful. Well there he is I'm gonna try and walk out there before he forces me into allowing him to carry me.

yeah, i'm ok, although apparently i'm gonna be stuck with an ugly scar on my tummy for the rest of my life which is kinda annoying, not really very sexy

Take care Rox.....

well, sometimes you gotta take the bad with the good. plus cosmetic surgery can do wonerful things these days.

*Cranes her neck to see if Gael is still outside breaking logs*

Hmm, she seems to have gone, but there are enough logs out there to keep someone in firewood for weeks!

yeah i guess so but i don't think i'll bother with that, if a guy is pathetic enough to be bothered by a little scar then he isn't worth bothering with

true.
:takes another gulp of the Guinness and leans against the bar:
so, what else is new around here?

*Raising her wings, she crouched at the water's edge and doused her hands in the cool clear liquid. A sudden pain shot up her spine, sending her to her hands and knees. But as quickly as it had come, the pain subsided again, leaving her trembling and confused. Beneath her hand, something shone through the murky bottom. Absently, she grabbed it and stood.*

nothing much really

*Sips at her wine, wondering if she should go home, or stay a while longer!*

*She took a few steps back from the water and composed herself to examine the object in her hand. It was a brass torc, very old and very well made. Though how on Earth it had wound up in the lake was anyone's guess. The engravings were familiar somehow. She put it around her neck, convinced she had been meant to find it, then began the trek back to the club. What a strange afternoon it had been.*

*Notices Gael in the distance.*

Ah, Gael seems to be heading this way, I might stay a while longer!

*downs the bottle*

*Stoically, she made her way through the thin trees, preferring not to follow a path, and let herself into the club.*

**he watched from the covoer of the trees as Gael fished something out of the water and fastened it around her neck**
well well, what have we here?
**he shifts his gaze from Gaek to the club**
too many people around for my liking.
**he shrinks back into the shadows of the forest**

*Glances over to Sage...*

He'll be passing out again soon.

: polishes off the drink:
so what's this about a valentines thing i saw on the announcement board?

*Slowly pours a guinness, and hands it to Gael, as she enters.*

Gael!

Long time no see!

How are you?

*takes the drink*

Hey Orchid. Thanks!

You're welcome....

: polishes off the drink:
so what's this about a valentines thing i saw on the announcement board?
i dunno, what did it say?

*Takes a seat near the balcony*

Sorry, you caught me a little off-guard. I'm decent, yourself? Come have a seat!

i have no idea. all it said was something about booking early for a valentines day outing.

*Takes a seat near Gael*

What's been doing then, anything interesting?

I'm just about to die of boerdom!

Nothing really. Though I have discovered destruction to be an excellent cure for boredom.

*Eyes flash darkly*

*he looks around, and winces, then drinks another bottle, he then stands up and spreads his arms*

Everyone! I have an announcement!...

*he then sits down and looks at the floor*

i have no idea. all it said was something about booking early for a valentines day outing.
well i was gonna have a ball but then i remembered how much i hate valentines day so i decided to just forget about it, besides i'm sure i employed an events organiser

Nothing really. Though I have discovered destruction to be an excellent cure for boredom.

*Eyes flash darkly*

Destruction eh?

Is that what all that wood cutting, minus the axe was all about?

:raises an eyebrow:
you alright there Sage?

Destruction eh?

Is that what all that wood cutting, minus the axe was all about?
It was indeed. A shot at violence didn't pan out, so that was the next best alternative.

*he looks around, and winces, then drinks another bottle, he then stands up and spreads his arms*

Everyone! I have an announcement!...

*he then sits down and looks at the floor*

Ha!

Knew it!

It was indeed. A shot at violence didn't pan out, so that was the next best alternative.

I don't think that I would have the strength for that...no matter how bored I became!

But I'm sure that I could find a substitute!
If I tried really hard....

ah. alright then.
:replaces the glass on the bar:
it's been fun Tink. ill see you again soon.
:walks out:

*Wakes up and Yawns*

Bye Red!

*A strange tingling sensation rippled through her gut. She stood slowly and turned for the balcony.*

If you'd excuse me...I think I need to go for a walk..

OOC: dinner.

Later Gael...

OOC
*Grins*

*Finishes her wine...takes the empty glass back to the bar.*

Well, I think I should be off now too...

G'night, any one left here!

See ya.

*Waves*

hey :)

*Throws muffin to Kahjak*

*Walks in slowly and looks around, wondering silently to herself whether or not he will come...*

*enters and sits at a table*

*starts to hum to himself*

*spots sexc and stands up*

*stops looking at the floor*

*goes off to change into togs*

*runs of to get swimming stuff*

*Re-emerges in a sparkling blue bikini and heads towards the pool.*

*Shrugs goes to the refrigerator and gets an orange juice, then walks to the swimming pool and the changing room.*
