I always find that a good run along the beach, or even a long swim helps when my legs start to feel like that!

*tosses the blade on the table towards Squorn.*

OOC: the blade is made entirely of a single pure, unflawed Sapphire.

*watches squorn leave... then bursts out laughing.*

I wanna be here when Ju meets squorn... should be interesting. :D

was I outragous enough? or should I have gone for a peck on his cheek?

and whatever is around is enough... never thought I'd miss the taste of food.

*Out in the kitchen, Orchid finds a pot of soup simmering on the stove.
She ladles out a bowlful and cuts a hunk of bread, putting them on a tray takes them out to....Ju?*

There get that down your throat.....

No, I never made it.....I think it must have been Will.

I thought you'd gone on a vacation....it's been a while since you've showed your.....self.

I'll not tell anyone about you.

but every now and then, I like to come out. most of the time, I spend it in the trees around the club.

hmmm... depends on who... after all, if it's some armed homophobe... :rolleyes:

But this is different... big time...

How so?

How so?Jun... I mean, *ahem* I'm worried. never felt like this before.

It wouldn't have anything to do with your personality problem, would it?

It wouldn't have anything to do with your personality problem, would it?and what is wrong with my person... oh... you know?

I think I do, anyway, I'm probably wrong but the Ju I remember was distinctly less female than you are...

I don't know, it might be worth it...

*She slid her pad across*

Anyway... do any of these look familiar to you?

I don't know, it might be worth it...

*She slid her pad across, on it was what Jen saw when she looked at Ju with each different force controlling him*

Anyway... do any of these look familiar to you?
*edit... mis read your post. self destuct away.*

no... what is that?

Hmm, that one is you, and that one is somebody else who walked up to me and claimed the title of Ju. *She pointed to each picture as she spoke*

(you notice that her eyes, for a brief moment, is green with red lines... it was so fast, you'd swear you imagined it.)

No... *She flipped a few pages* This is the Ju I first met.

Care to explain?

Wha... oh... um... I think Orchid is better at explaining that... I really don't know what she tried to do... except it did knock me... and ju... for a loop.

OOC: Have a good one.

IC:

Okay...

She woke up again, groggily lifting her head from the counter. The lines from the previous carvings decorated her face in a flesh-red color, and she yawned, pale blue eyes luminescent and back to normal. Messy white hair stuck out and odd angles, and upon catching her sleep-blurred reflection in the mirror across the countertop, she giggled.

Messy white hair stuck out and odd angles, and upon catching her sleep-blurred reflection in the mirror across the countertop, she giggled.

Welcome to the land of the living.

She spun on her stool, startled to hear a voice, and saw Jen. Feeling much more energetic than she had earlier, Noire chuckled, and sliding from the stool, padded barefoot across the carpet to seat herself across from Jen.

"What was today like?"

Much less violent than last time I was here, but no less confusing... Sleep well?

She nodded, eyes appearing much more alert and less out of it. "It was much better than the sleep I got last night. I didn't even recognize Will when I woke up."

*She muttered* There's been a lot of that going around...

*Normal tone* Good to hear it, a little bit of alertness is always healthy.

She looked at Jen, confused. "People aren't recognizing Will?" Nodding, and having caught the last of her previous statement, she added another question. "And what kind of violence are you talking about? What happened the other night?"

No it's just that out of the last three times I've seen him, twice I've thought that Ju has been someone else. I think that's verifiable evidence that either something strange is afoot, or I'm losing my mind.

Noire started briefly. "Ju's been around? I haven't seen him in ages!" Chuckling, she nodded. "I think we're all losing our minds; either that, or it's this silly weather." She gestured outside to the rain, a small, circular motion.

"Either way, I have a job that needs doing. First one in a while, and I really need the cash, so if you'll excuse me..." Standing, Noire inclined her head to the woman seated across from her, and climbed the stairs barefoot for the first time in a while. Once in her room with the door shut behind her, her pajamas dropped accordingly to the floor and sitting down, she pulled the legs of her black work pants on one at a time. Changing into a slim-fitting, practical black turtleneck, she tugged the dark trenchcoat on over the clothes, weaponry inside clinking gently in a loving manner.

Noire smiled at herself in the mirror. It feels like home again. Running a hand through her short hair to tame the worst of it, she stepped out of the room, leaving everything in shambles as usual, and locked the door behind her. Striding back down to the bar room, she nodded to Jen again and gave her a wave. "Have a good night!"

The door swung open as she stepped through, and lightning flashed briefly across the sky as the door struck the wall, closing once more.

ooc: I'm off. Nighty! :fluffle:

OOC: I'm off too, your text is starting to form dirty limericks in my mind. Night.

IC:

Good night!

*Jen watched her leave and then hurried outside, she didn't want anyone seeing her, that had been very odd.*

ooc : anybody home?

OOC: More or less..

*The rain from the night before had passed and the new day broke clear and blustery. Wind-teased whitecaps danced across the bay. Will made his way to the club with Noire's silver chain now in the pocket of his jacket. He was still unsure of how to proceed, but he knew instinctively that it was vital that she did not have it. Entering the barroom he looked around and couldn't see anyone sleeping in the room (a frequent occurence). He started the coffee to brew and then kindled a new fire in the fireplace. Soon the room offered welcomed warmth and coziness.*

Raven woke and slowly made her way down stairs wraped up in a blanket. She stoped at the foot of the stairs and looked around.

*Will smiled as Raven entered the room. She looked quite sweet and demure. Sleep still upon her, bundled in a blanket. Not the hardened exiled runaway at all*

No one here but us Indians

*pours himself a cup of coffee, asks*

She smiled and nodded as she shuffled over to the bar to sit down, her quilt making a swishing sound as it slid over the floor.

Have you been well?

she shrugged and sipped her coffe. " i supose.... all of the stuff that has been going on lately is kind of weirding me out"

she shrugged and sipped her coffe. " i supose.... all of the stuff that has been going on lately is kind of weirding me out"
you and me both....

*Ju woke up and got ready for the day. Standing at the door of his cabana, he took in the bright sunshine and the cool breeze...

then a frown appeared on his lips. with a sigh, he made his way to the club... However, instead of entering, he hung back at the door, watching Will and Raven, and looking for signs of... Something.*

Yah, i will be interested to see what happens with it all. She finishes her coffe and then glances at the clock. i gotta run.
she stands and shuffels back up to her room to get ready for the day.

ooc: class is over:(

OOC- later, Raven:( ; Ju, I got to bolt for about an hour.....work calls

OOC- later, Raven:( ; Ju, I got to bolt for about an hour.....work calls
OOC: no prob... you and raven leaving works perfectly into Ju's... paranoia.;)

*As the club emptied out, an old woman knelt at the edge of the tide, bent over something in the water.*

*after will and Raven left, Ju slowly made his way throught the club... eyes searching for anything out of place... his mind full of worry.*

Ok... what happened yesterday...

*looking out towards the beach, Ju noticed a figure bent over the water. Curious, Ju walked out to the beach.*

*As Ju approached, he would see the old hag washing something in the water. On closer inspection, it would prove to be three bloody items. One of his shirts, a sapphire dagger, and his ever-present glove.*

*stops...*
*after a moment, Ju places his gloved hands behind his back.*
*ahem...*
ma'am, we do have facilities that will clean those better than ocean water.

*She stopped and looked at him, her face deadly grim and accusatory. And in the blink of an eye, the woman was no more, but in her place, a crow took to flight.*

*She stopped and looked at him, her face deadly grim and accusatory. And in the blink of an eye, the woman was no more, but in her place, a crow took to flight.*
This bodes not well....
*goes to where the woman was standing and picks up the objects. #that is if the objects are still there.# and examines them.*

where did it get my shirt and glove... and who's blood and dagger is this?

*walks back into the club... objects in hand.*

Noire stepped through the door, face flushed and slightly pink from the chill air. The morning didn't seem to have been born from the stormy night, and the sunshine danced gleefully through the windowpanes of the club as she stepped through the door and back into the club. A diagonal cut ran from the inner corner of her right eye to the jawbone's edge, but despite the fact that it showed signs of having bled profusely, it was quite shallow. The flow was already stemming itself, and upon entering the club and shedding her trench coat, holding over one arm, a grin split her face upon seeing Ju.

"Long time, no see!"

Meg walked down, a gash across her face slowly clearing, she saw Ju and turned into a quivering wreck,

'you....you fucking attacked me a few days ago, you nearly killed me, if it wasnt for Ed, i would have died - you were possessed, we nearly had sex in the closet and then you threw me out...and...and...and' she said, shaking.

*The brand on her palm was now just a faint silver coloured scar, with the excption of the spiders eyes which glared an angry red.

She walked slowly along the waters edge towards the bar trying to make sense of the last couple of weeks, but failing dismally.

On entering the bar, she saw that there was already some of the regulars in.*

Hey Raven...Meg....

Ju!

What's wrong Meg?

Meg saw the way that Orchid looked at Ju and realised she wasnt wanted, she went and sat in the rocking chair and looked into the fire longingly.

*Grabbing a blanket, Ju quietly followed Meg and when she sat down, he knelt on the ground infront of her.*

we... whe... who... :confused:

What did I do?!?!

Meg saw the way that Orchid looked at Ju and realised she wasnt wanted, she went and sat in the rocking chair and looked into the fire longingly.

Raven walked back down stairs, she had decided to stay wraped in her quilt after a breif look around the room she and headed over to where meg was sitting.
" fire won't save you"
she smiled and pated her on the shoulder be for walking out side

She caught the medkit tossed in her direction, and chuckled as she put it down on the counter, watching Meg's shenanigans begin as Ju appeared concerned. Her fingers drifted up to touch the totem necklace around her neck, and laughed inwardly again to see Orchid show up at the same time.

Well, this should be nothing less than interesting.

Turning from the open doorway, she stepped briskly in her boots over to the staircase, which she climbed a little achingly before reaching her room at the top of the stairs. I'm a bit out of shape, I suppose. I should be taking more jobs.

Slipping through the door, Noire turned the key in the lock with a tiny click before hanging her trenchcoat on the pegboard by the door. The blades inside clanked against one another, having already been cleaned after use. Scooping up all the clothes littering the floor, she crammed them hastily into the wicker hamper set in the corner, and tugged at the bedsheets in an effort to make them straight and unwrinkled. The result was a slightly-better-in-appearance room, with the general clutter and chaos gone. Checking her reflection, eyes glowing faintly, she nodded as the cut glowed with a white light and faded to leave a barely visible scar. Stepping across the carpet to the shower, the door to the bathroom closed, and after dropping her worn clothes to the floor, the sound of shower water rushed behind the bathroom door as steam leaked slowly from the crack near the floor. It shut off ten minutes later with a creak, and gathering the clothes littering the bathroom floor, Noire crammed them in with the others in the wicker hamper before pulling on a slim, casual turtleneck and black pants.

Finished, short hair clinging wetly to her head and neck, she wandered down the stairs and back to the bar room as she continued the effort to rehook the shuriken earring back into her left earlobe. Best shower ever. Her eyes lit faintly once more, and her hair was dry again.

*Will came back into the bar room from the cold cellar with his arms full of potatoes, sees the place full of people and activity....thinks, damn, leave for an hour and all hell breaks loose*

Greetings all.....

*As she turned to help Noire, the other woman disappeared up the stairs, so instead Orchid went and sat on a barstool watching Ju as he went to speak to Meg.
A few minutes later Noire returned, looking much less dishevelled than previously.*

Hi....are you ok?

*Waves to Will as he returns from the back.*

ooc: Sorry about the post, guys. It took a while to write, plus I was listening to Ben Folds at the same time. My bad for messing up the sequence. :(

ic: Focusing on the shuriken, she gave Orchid a nod and a grin. "Yeah, I'm feeling much better. Shower did me good." The earring finally slipped in, and she looked up and saw Will with mounds of potatoes in his arms. She chuckled at the sight, and her hand unconciously drifted down to adjust the necklace, which had turned backwards as she'd changed.

"What're those all for?"

*After a few moments, Ju carefully covers meg with the blanket.*
You know I would never do anything to intentionally hurt you.

*then turns to join the others.*

^#*@$ what the hell did she do yesterday! :confused: :mad:

*Will busies himself washing off the potatoes and arranging whole and unpeeled on a baking sheet. Pops them in the oven. Returns to the bar. pours himself a drink*

*As Ju leaves Meg to her own devises, Orchid puts a hand on his shoulder.*

Problems?

*As Ju leaves Meg to her own devises, Orchid puts a hand on his shoulder.*

Problems?uhmmm... dunno yet... did I... Did I say or do anything that requires me to be prostrating myself before anyone begging for their forgiveness?

twice-baked potatoes!

"Sounds good; I could go for some." She chuckled, "Then again, I'll eat any food as long as it's not alive."

Padding barefoot over to the counter, she dropped into a stool, and dark fire glimmered around her fingertips. She took a drink from the resulting bottle, and raising questioning eyebrows, asked, "Want something to drink?"

ooc: Yay, Def Leppard.

*Racks brain......*

Not to my knowledge......no....Squorn wasn't offended at all!

*chuckles*
and now you're wanting to get me drunk?

*fries some bacon on the grill. chops onions, mushrooms, garlic, parsley. grates two different cheeses into a bowl.*

*peers dubiously at the fire-flashing blue bottle*

and what is this concoction called?

:confused: Why would Squorn be... :headbang:
Oh...no reason....

Just say He was Anna'd

She gave him a joking wink, and chuckled. "Sounded like a good idea to me! Actually," Noire gestured with the bottle, "this's just vodka, as usual."

The smell of bacon drifted through the club, and her stomach rumbled. "That food smells good. You should open a resturant."

^blast from the past^
craig and erivas hunted down in the the tunnels for days before they got the other 4 blags and succeeded in it without any problems as the blags started freaking out as soon as they saw craig, not able to understand what they were up against
^back to the present^ (ooc: want to finish this story)
craig and erivas enter Erialdas, the gnome world, again and head for Livas-cavian, after craig sent mud back up to the paradise club attic of course
on their way through Nesdan-cavian creolas catches up with them
'And what happened, did you get one?' he asks
"not one, 5" craig answers
'No way! all of them? we couldn't even get one and you get all of them in a couple of days' creolas reacts joyfully
"Ah well it wasn't that hard, the first one practicly killed himself, and the others were't much of a challenge either"
they enter Livas-cavian and creolas whispers some words
'Fellow gnomes! we are out of trouble! craig killed the blags' he yells afterwards, his voice sounding through the whole cave
after whispering some words again he continues
'i'm sure this will get reported to the elders without me, now will you join all of us to Nesdan-cavian?'
"I'm sorry, but it's time for me to go back up"
'I understand, if you need us just come over okay?'
"I will, and if you need me down here you know how to reach me"
craig tightenes his new enchanted backpack and his belt and prepares to jump up
'Goodbye, hope to see you later'
"goodbye" craig says before slowly floating up, speeding while he is nearing the ceiling of the cave and starting to race against huge speed straight up back to the club

Oh...no reason....
:D
Just say He was Anna'd*goes to the bar, some feet away from everyone and proceeds to :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: *

Oh...no reason....

ooc: Page number! Share! XD

suddenly craig's head appears through the bar, the rest of his 'body' coming into sight once he steps forwards
"hi everyone" he mumbles before heading to the end of the bar and getting his gin-tonic still standing there

She gave him a joking wink, and chuckled. "Sounded like a good idea to me! Actually," Noire gestured with the bottle, "this's just vodka, as usual."

The smell of bacon drifted through the club, and her stomach rumbled. "That food smells good. You should open a resturant."
*pulls now baked taters out of the oven, slices each in two, scoops out insides into a large bowl mixes with butter, previously chopped vegtables and herbs, crumbles in the bacon. mixes together as he lightly mashes the potatoes.

She nodded. "Yeah, but why should that stop you? You could always set up shop here for the time being, couldn't you? At least get some business started." Grinning, she reached out the shot glass and tapped it lightly. It filled with black flame, which swilled about the glass, sparking and dancing as it became alcohol. "There ya go."

no, no, if I had a nickel for everytime someone's suggested that, I'd be a very rich man....unfortunately I love to cook when the spirit moves me.. but to do it on demand, well, that's a whole different thing all together...

"Oh, okay." She nodded. "That makes sense; I think most things are like that, though." A fleeting sadness appeared and disappeared in her eyes, unnoticeable, and she chuckled to see him look at the glass in an apprehensive manner.

"I promise things won't sprout out of it and eat you." She watched him down the shot, eyes dancing with laughter. "If you want more, feel free to ask. It is a little strong, and may take some getting used-to, but it's good."

*walks up to craig... * you still a ghost?
*Gently Pokes.*"yup, i'm actually starting to like it"

*the liquor gave its satisfying burn as it went through him. She was right-- it was strong and ,sadly, he could get very, very used to it.*
*exhales sharply*

whew, that is good. but I'll need to pace myself, if I'm going to be of any use to anyone and not passed out on the floor!

*pulls the sheet of hot, bubbling potatoes out of the oven and sets on bar. places a stack of small plates and forks next to them and announces to the bar*

kewl... so you can touch stuff now...
did they give you a glass you can drink out of?"actually, there could be one in this pack, it has loads of things in it, if i didn't know any better i'd say it's bottomless"
*sticks his arm all the way in the bag and rumbles a bit making all kinds of noises*
"this feels like a glass" *pulls out a glass*
"You wouldn't say it but this isn't made of real glass, it's stone, those gnomes had loads of it. it seems that most of these things are actually of some use"
*puts the glass down and starts pouring the gin-tonic over from his old glass*

*Watches in amazement, as Craig almost loses himself in his bag.*

Cool...any girl would love one of those!

Noire grinned. "I've been drinking it forever, and haven't passed out once." Considering it, she added, "Then again, it's almost like a part of me, because of the way it's made, so maybe that's why it doesn't really affect me in that way. I've never really thought about it before."

Drinking the soup as she spoke, she surprised herself by finding the bottom of the bowl early. "Well, that was tops, Will." Sliding the bowl a little to the left, she hopped down from the stool.

"I'm going to go for a beach-walk. I'll be back later; see you."

She gave a small wave to Will and then to the rest of the bar room, and slipped out of the door and into the fading sunshine. The sky burned red at the edge of the water, and she sifted her toes through the sand before stepping off down the shoreline.

ooc: Got work; see you folks later. :fluffle:

great... so now you can actually drink it then.*takes a sip and let's it swirl around in his mouth*
"it sure tastes like it" *smiles*

Noire grinned. "I've been drinking it forever, and haven't passed out once." Considering it, she added, "Then again, it's almost like a part of me, because of the way it's made, so maybe that's why it doesn't really affect me in that way. I've never really thought about it before."

*Will waved quickly back as Noire abruptly left.. He hesitated as two trains of thought collided at full-speed in his brain... go after her one said, All of this evening's conversation has been an invitation...go ,go....meanwhile contrary thinking laughed, old fool, old fool , old fool.....he physically shook his head, hard... ctaching Orchid's eye he said aloud*

not that old, damn it

*grabbing his jacket, he left the bar and headed down the beach after the young woman.*


OOC- it is time for me too, to head out, thanks for another good day at the club!

Is there anyone left?

*finishes his gin-tonic slowly*
"Now that's just perfect."
*puts the glass back inside the bag and stands up slowly, happy about the unexpected suprises his new bag contains, craig takes the handle of his tseran (=sword) and floats up ready to go asleep*

OOC: Sigh.. you people live in inconvenient timezones. :(

Raven wondered back in to the club still wraped up in her quilt and sat down by the fire.

Raven stood and walked over to the window and looked out at the beach.
what have i done to be the bearer of this much pain

Pain is weakness...

Pain is weakness...
Raven snarled, "you know nothing of pain!"

Raven snarled, "you know nothing of pain!"
Don't I..

Don't I..
absent mindedly Raven reached up to her neck and runs a hand over the scabs that had formed there, unknowingly she caused them to bleed again and did not see the drops of blood that fell to the floor.
have you had the only person that you have ever come to love betray you?!? have you had your famliy try and hunt you down?!? Have you ever been in so much pain that the only person you were able to trust was your self???
she started to shake as tears started to roll down her cheeks and fell to the floor mixing with the blood that lay there.

*The voice paused for a moment.. allowing Raven to regain some measure of self-control. When the answer came, it was simple. Unassuming, yet honest.*

Twice.

Twice.

Raven stoped shaking and took a few deep breaths to try and calm her self down.
if that truly is the case then you have no right to tell me that iam weak

Raven stoped shaking and took a few deep breaths to try and calm her self down.
if that truly is the case then you have no right to tell me that iam weak
I merely stated that pain is weakness.. do not confuse the issue..

Raven just snorted and returned to the couch
what ever you say.....

*The voice laughed dryly, an edge of malevolance returning to the sound.*

*The voice laughed dryly, an edge of malevolance returning to the sound.*

Raven closed her eyes and lay her head back on the couch and smiled
so while we are talking will you answer two questions for me.
first, why do you need my blood and second who or what are you?

*hunter wandered into the club and up to the bar*

this can't be real. it isnt.

oh but it is.

you're a voice in my head

you're a voice in mine.

*he couldnt help but shudder as he grabbed a bottle of rum and downed half of it in one gulp*

Raven closed her eyes and lay her head back on the couch and smiled
so while we are talking will you answer two questions for me.
first, why do you need my blood and second who or what are you?
Strength.. life.. Who am I? You'll find out soon enough. Though I believe I've answered that question before..

enters the bar quietly.

Strength.. life.. Who am I? You'll find out soon enough. Though I believe I've answered that question before..
mmm ok

she sat up and looked around the bar and saw hunter and gave a small wave.

did it never occur to you that your presence here might not be just a coincidence? that something may have happened that cause this "amnesia" you are having?

i...

*he pupils dilated a bit*

you are here for one perpose and one purpose only; me. i needed a way back into this world. so i created you in my image. you have my skills, my intellegence, everything you are was once mine. however, there are certain... rules in this demention. one cannot simply make a shell to live in. it must be inhabited by something.

this is bullshit. none of this makes sense. how can you...?

oh stop complaining like a child. i am the person you where meant to be. and now it is time for me to take my rightful place. good-bye.

you can't...

*a random thunder clap that seemed to eminated from the club itself rang out through the air, and "hunter" sat up a bit straighter. he looked around and smirked, them mumbeled to himself*

it is done.

Raven jumped off the couch and looked at jen and kriege for help.
hunter...are you ok...?

gets board and begins to balance tables on random bodyparts

Startled by ravens quick movment Kreige loses his balance and causes the tables to crash down on him "raven whats wrong" krieges voice comes from the pile of tables.

*he turned and smiled*

ya, i'm alright. just... have a lot on my mind.

Startled by ravens quick movment Kreige loses his balance and causes the tables to crash down on him "raven whats wrong" krieges voice comes from the pile of tables.

She turned to see Kriege stuck under a pile of tables "iam fine."

@ hunter " if you want to talk just let me know"

she sighed and floped back down on the couch sunggleing up in her quilt.

*he nodded and went back to his rum*

well i can see this is going to be a dull night

grumbles angrily from under the pile of rather heavy tables and begind to trash about trying to extracate himself from the mess he made. "a little help here some one?"

*hunter looked over at the man under the tables and sighed. he downed a bit more rum, then slid off his bar stool and walked over to the pile an kicked a few of the tables off*

Stands up grumply and glares at his rescurer." Think you could have been any more rough?" straightens his suit then proceeds to balance a chair on his chin.

*he shrugged*

probably.

*he walked back over to his bottle and took a seat*

gets board with his balancing act and puts the chair down. then suddenly struck by an Idea. "Hey raven can you dance?"

*The fire flickered unnaturally for the briefest moment. Raven's blood on the floor remained unabsorbed.*

Vaga..

A shiver runs through Kreiges body and a memory surfaces. but was it kreiges or was it his sometimes it was hard to tell.

*he smirked to himself*

the one and only.

*downed the last of the rum*

*A phantom touch graced "Hunter's" jawline with a brief sensation of melancholy.*

*he look softened for a moment, then he shook it off and cocked his head to the side a bit*

Morgan. how much progress have you made?

ooc : it is morgan right? i'm having serious brain farts today.

OOC: Morrigan. But close.;)

I bide my time now. She has agreed. I left her no choice.

*he sighed*

we are so close, yet the impatience is almost maddening.

*he grabbed another bottle of rum off the shelf and wandered out towards the patio*

*Outside, she gathered the strength to manifest herself in one of the Three forms. She appeared as a barefoot woman. She looked like Gael, as they had first met her. When she was still human.. The figure stepped up behind him, and laid two gentle hands on his shoulders.*

Try to be patient.. You know this stage is crucial..

i know.

*he crossed his arms in front of his chest and watched the small waves crash along the beach*

Good.

*Slowly she stepped back. Inside, Raven's blood soaked into the floorboards.*

*he sighed and rubbed his eyes*

just let me know when you are ready for me.

Another day or so, I should think. Although if you want to hasten the process.. get Will to give her back the necklace. I have no desire to force my own hand.

*he stopped rubbing his eyes*

he is begining to irritate me. far to interested in meddeling. i'll see what i can do.

Raven smiled from her place on the couch, quitly and gracefuly she rose and walked out on to the beach still hugging her quilt about herself.

*The semi-apparition glanced sidelong at Raven as she appeared not too far off.*

There are others as well. And a few in particular I would seek to turn.. or unleash, as the case were.

i supose we where not going to keep it a secret forever. i'll do what i can to draw attention away from Noire and prehaps provoke that demon that seems to have taken up residence in Ju. that should buy us some more time.

*She ran one hand up the back of his neck and mussed his hair slightly, grinning to herself.*

We are of one mind. I love it.

good to be on the same page now and again.

*the smirk returned to his face and he looked over his shoulder at her*

and what shall we do about Raven? she will be growing more curious about what all of her... donations are going towards.

*She smiled slyly in return*

Burn that bridge when we come to it. The situation sits very fluid at the moment. I'd like to keep it that way.

Raven wheeled around, she was positive that someone hed been watching her, but when she saw that there was no one there she sighed and mummbled,"iam losing it". quickly she droped her blanket, and then unlaced her dress and stepped out of it. and droped it in to the sand. she stood in her corset and stockings and bloomers befor she kicked off her shoes and dove in to the water.

*he nodded in agreement, then returned his gaze to the waves, taking a sip of the rum*

*Following his gaze, she eyed Raven once more, laughing darkly.*

Don't stare. It's unbecoming.

*he smirked*

not jealous are you?

Always.

*She laughed silently, half-heartedly, and stepped back once more.*

But my strength is fading fast. Slán go foill.. a stór..

*he gave a meloncoly look over his shoulder, then nodded a solumn goodbye*

OOC: Gotta be up for PT in ..5 hours. Night all!:fluffle:

ooc : nighters.

Raven floted on her back for a while allowing the tide to take her where it willed and clean the scratches that decorated her neck and sholders. She then turned and swam back to the beach and pulled her self back on to land. she stood letting the water drip off of her while she wroung out her long black hair. She placed her dress shoes and now soggy stocking in the blanket and gathered it up and then headed back towards the club, letting the wind dry her as she walked.

Meg wandered down, looking a little happier, she was however very flinchy and paranoid.

Meg wandered down, looking a little happier, she was however very flinchy and paranoid.
OOC: Tg'd

OOC: back at ya old boy ;)

Meg wandered down, looking a little happier, she was however very flinchy and paranoid.
*from a dark corner of the booth... the distinct sound of liquid falling into a crystal container fills the room.*

well, well, well... if it isn't my fine little filly. :D

Meg jumped.

'Ju...ummm - hey' she said, feeling her blood run cold.

Meg jumped.

'Ju...ummm - hey' she said, feeling her blood run cold.
[Singing]

You look so lonely... standing there...
Table for two, one empty chair...

[speaks]
well, what now?
*a glass of amber liquid is pushed out from the shadows by a gloved hand.*

Meg took it and circled her perfectly manicured fingers around the rim- reluctant to drink it.

'well what? you tried to kill me - i dont really want to know you' she said,

'well what? you tried to kill me - i dont really want to know you' she said,
I only reacted out of self defense.... you, after all, punched me in the stomach repeatedly.
*white teeth seem to gleam in the shadows.*
Or was that an indication that you like it rough?

she blushed.
'i punched you because i wanted to get the demon out' she said, taking a quick swig from the glass.

she blushed.
'i punched you because i wanted to get the demon out' she said, taking a quick swig from the glass.
*the liquid is smooth and heady... a warmth spreads throughout your body.*
ahhh... so your physical attacks were to help me...

I do apologize then. I mis-interpreted your intent.
*ju leans forward... brining his face into the light. the dark glasses he's wearing reflects Meg as she stands there.*

why don't you sit then.

*she sits down cautiously*

'are you in love with Orchid?' she asked,

'yes, and i do like it rough' she added with a smile.

*she sits down cautiously*

'are you in love with Orchid?' she asked, [shrugs] a person has wants and needs, sometimes waiting becomes.... tedious. 'yes, and i do like it rough' she added with a smile.*Ju's smile becomes more... predetory.*
now that is nice to know...

she tried to avoid his eyes.

'so why are you possessed?' she asked,

she tried to avoid his eyes.

'so why are you possessed?' she asked,why am I...
who says I'm possessed?
is that what others are saying about me? :(

'no, its just, you're different - i cant explain it' she said,

OOC: am off now....b bck l8a

'no, its just, you're different - i cant explain it' she said,

OOC: am off now....b bck l8a
OOC: then I would suggest runing off... it'll end the conversation.

IC: *He leans back into the shadows... watching Meg accend the stairs. In the darkness, His grin grows wider.*

Yeah... she'll be perfect... so innocent... and so daring. :D

*wanders in*

hello, anyone living in here.

Don't let that stop you speaking up if you happen to be undead or something.

wow, not even any zombies here

*sits down in a chair*

*comes in naked and steaming and seats self at bar*

"I just came out of the sauna and I need a refresing drink and a salty snack!"

*waits*
*looks impatiently at tan-line where watch would normally be*
*clambers over counter and helps self to OJ, vodka, and the communal peanut bowl*
*returns to bar-stool*

"Anyone up for some pool?"

*looks at the naked person for a moment*

(to self) well, stranger things have happened

hello there

hello there
*looks at speach bubble above Squornshelous*

That's strange....

What's up? You up for some pool, mate?

*starts places the triangle on the table and begins to rack the balls*

so do you always walk around naked?

so do you always walk around naked?
"You break."

*walks to pool table*

"No, not all the time. I'm just taking a break from sauna. Its great man! You ever been in one?"

"You break."

*walks to pool table*

"No, not all the time. I'm just taking a break from sauna. Its great man! You ever been in one?"

*chalks up and shoots*

Once or twice.

"You like it? I find it very refresing."

*watches balls roll around*

yeah, it's very relaxing

yeah, it's very relaxing
Ever run out of the sauna and jump into freezing water through a hole in the ice? Ever stand outside in -32 degree (Celcius) weather and then roll around in the snow?

Its the best. And the beer in the sauna. That's good, too.

*chalkes up and shoots*
*gets solids*
*shoots again*
*misses*

You're up.

Nope, can't say I've ever done that before. Besides, there's not much -32 degree weather here in georgia.

*lines up a shot and sinks one*
*next shot hits the bumper and misses*

"That there was a sweet shot."

*strikes the ball a little too hard, making it fly up into the air, only to land safely with a CRUNK, and not hitting anything*

"You should come to Finland sometime then. That's where the sauna was invented man. There's this whole history of it being too cold to actually bathe like normal Western Europeans, and so, the sauna was created! Have you tried beating yourself with birch sticks?"

I think there are closer places to find cold weather, but I'll consider Finland. I don't think I've ever beaten myself with birch sticks but a few friends have done that before. Although I'm not sure if they were birch, but there was definitely beating going on.

*goes and gets the cue, dusts it off and places it back on the table*
*shoots and knocks another ball in, but scratches*

OOC: I have a knack for that in real life

Meg comes back at sits where Ju was last, she still had the glass in her hand.

"The birch makes you smell good. That's why its great."

*lines up*

"Well, there's always Canada. Or Alsaka, you don't need to bother with international travel with that."

*shoots and watches ball roll*

"Almost! Argh! And Alaska is cheaper, too, and without all those annoying English tourists."

*looks at place where watch should be*

"Whoa! We gotta wrap this up soon. You wanna sink all the balls next time? I gotta get dressed and catch a bus soon."

OOC: I have a knack for hitting the ball, but not getting anywhere with it in RL :)

Bump

Runs into the bar (litteraly) and falls over

Meg comes back at sits where Ju was last, she still had the glass in her hand.
*Tilts his head and reguards her with his sunglasses covered eyes. Leaning forwards, he waves his hand over her glass... refilling it with the same amber liquid.*

Yes?

'Kreige!' Meg said, running and hugging him.

'where have you been?! you havent called or anything' Meg said,

swaying slightly from the impact he looks at her a little disoriened from his previous impact with the bar. He smiles broadly when he reconizes her. "I've been at college. Thought I'd learn a few new skills and leave my er previous proffesion for good." sways again but this time because of megs proximity. "Er... I've been taking dance lessons...I thought that it might please you if I could dance.... I've missed you."
