Stevie?!: ((The more the merrier!))
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims is full bore
tonight and more then willing to take up her instinctive challenge as he follows
with her heading for the dance floor. He matches her movements but his movements
are faster, more energy being spent already as he moves*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
(*gnaws on* good to go*G*)
Kaitlyn Kelly: In the spirit of the
evening, Kaitlyn is going all out, wearing a blue maribou pastie set that has a
thong maribou strip, maribou pasties, wrist cuffs, maribou choker and beautiful
feather mask with sequins, plus blue dancing shoes, and carrying a small little
sequin purse too. Blue eyes peer though the mask, red lips smiling
mischievously.(pic: http://tinyurl.com/yanp2j)
Stevie?!: *She misses a beat. Somehow,
some way, something startled her. After the missed beat, however, she regains
her rhythm but rather than stopping in the middle of the dance floor she works
her way towards one of the corners.*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *He moves with her,
almost flowing with her as they dance and twist as they move towards the corner
of the dancefloor. That big cocky grin on his face.*
Kaitlyn Kelly: And it doesn't take her
long to hit the dance floor, dancing in her favorite native dancing, the
Argentinian tango, finding some woman nearby to where she is to dance with her.
Stevie?!: *She spins around and kicks
towards Sims, aimed just above his foot, though likely it'll seem like she's
kicking at him.*
Kaitlyn Kelly:
d10: dancing w abil apt: 7,6,4,2,6,2,9,3,
Stevie?!: *She narrows her eyes at the
floor and mutters something likely lost under the music.* ((Lemme know if
reading lips))
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *As the kick comes
around Sims is quick to react, but in such a way that it seems natural. He hops
the kick and actually moves in closer all in one motion and continues to move
watching her with that smile*
Stevie?!:
d10: Keep it dancin: 1,8,9,7,2,7,4,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly:

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (*smacks keyboard**G* for
when she comes in thats what shes wearing)
Stevie?!: *She quickly clasps her hands
together and brings them down. It really is a strange dance she's started.*
Kaitlyn Kelly: Kaitlyn is not perhaps at
her best, but she's not doing bad either, helping to lead her pseudo male
partner through the moves; though there is more sensuality and passion in her
dancing than usual tonight.
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims watches
intently, not exactly sure what she is doing, but he keeps with her, following
along trying to figure out how to follow this dance*
Stevie?!: *She gets a positively livid
look on her face and seems to growl at the air before stomping it.* Leave him
alone, he's mine!
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *living in midtown as it
is she makes it there before he does, wearing a tan dress thats long in the back
and short(showing off her legs) in the front, the top like a peasant style
blouse, a green almost leaflike corset wrapped around her and a headpiece of
leaves and ribbons on top of her fiery red curls that are down and loose, and
her skin thats exposed has a light almost greenish shimmer to it that brings out
the color in her aqua blue eyes, an altogether very mother naturey type costume
*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims gives Stevie an
odd look but that smile holds as well...it is Stevie. He moves closer carefully
watching for any flying limbs* "Stevie, whats the deal girl?"
Stevie?!: *She looks at Sims.* I'll...be
right back. *She starts weaving through the crowd, her eyes seeming to follow
the ground.*
Kaitlyn Kelly: The dance over, she
happily kisses her brief partner on the lips, wishes her a happy Samhain and
decides to go to the bar for a quick drink.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He makes his way into
the Lime, taking a drag off a clove. The man's chosen a somewhat more gothic
take on the Neil Gaiman Sandman costume, personally done. The purple robe has
become more of a black, Jedi-esque robe, open and showing a mesh shirt
underneath. Straps of leather start at his elbows and wind their way down his
arm, ending seamlessly at his palms where they sort of meld into each other. The
hair is black and a wild tangle, and his face is pale, with black giving the
effect of deep-sunken eyes and contacts making his green eyes sloid black but
for white pinpricks where his pupils are. Doc Martins cover his feet. A Dark
Dream, this one. He takes a drag off of a clove and looks around the Limelight
with those odd eyes.
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims watches
Stevie moving off doing his best to keep his eyes on her while still shifting
and dancing with the crowd around him*
Simon "Sims" Ashford:
d10: Move it: 9,10,7,5,3,6,7,
Cameo O'Brocki: (open still?)
Stevie?!: *Whatever she was following, she
seems to have lost it at the moment, her eyes whip around from side to side
trying to find it again.*
Stevie?!: ((Come on in!))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Alertness: 1,5,2,8,8,3,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *wending towards the bar
seems to be the thing, not one for merely standing about, shes made her way
there and found a seat, sleek nicely toned legs(the edges of a fiery tattoo
peeking from the edges of the dress on her right thigh) cross as she leans
slightly agains the bar, ordering a guiness....starting slow tonight(another
tatt on her back left shoulder, partially covered by her hair)*
Kaitlyn Kelly: She's managed to get a guy
to give her his seat at the bar as she rubs against him just so, and at least
for his gesture, she buys him a drink and offers a dance with him later.
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims keeps watching
Stevie despite his performance and begins to slide in her direction, though
slowly, as there are many many people on the dance floor*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He manages to catch a
flash of red hair, and a little grin hits his lips. It's gone quickly, though,
and he slips through the masquerade that the Limelight is on this night, a
silent predator through the crowd of sheep. He moves forward toward the bar,
coming up behind Kaeleigh.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly:
d10: per/alert: 7,2,4,1,2,5,
Stevie?!: Oh no you don't. *She picks up
speed as much as she can through the crowd, heading for the door.*
Kaitlyn Kelly: Kait decides to share the
seat with the stranger and sits on his lap instead as their drinks arrive, and
she pays.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *nope.....not a thing in
the crowded place that the bar is, so as he comes up behind her she doesnt see a
thing, instead paying for her drink and intent on taking a good gulp*
Cameo O'Brocki: (If I'm stepping on any
toes, just speak up and I'll scatter. For a full dd, poke me) The girl makes her
way into the bar, looking different of course.. being the night that it is. Her
hair is dyed black and down for a change, falling over the shoulders of a
flowing ash grey gown. She went for the tattered fallen angel look this year,
dark wings and halo slightly askew. Either she's clumsy, or this isn't the first
bar she's hit. Her expression is blank, looking around for a bit of stimuli.
(http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/frankbeecostume_1921_26696611)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Ack! Sorry...I
certainly don't mind.))
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims see's her launch
off and follows weaving and ducking through the crowd as he follows. Slight
concern on his face as he goes*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: ((Aye come on in))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He affects a low, hollow
voice, leaning in close behind Kaeleigh, speaking into her ear. "Welcome,
mortal, to the land of Nightmares. What secret desire brings you here tonight?"
Cameo O'Brocki: She wanders toward the bar,
looking to be in no real hurry.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *swallowing down the gulp,
she starts to lower the glass when she hears the voice and raises a brow*
silly.....dont you know that mother nature is immortal?*giving a slightly
crooked grin*
Cameo O'Brocki: She waves a hand up to the
tender speaking blandly. "Strawberry daquiri." She pulls her wallet out from the
low neckline. Afterall.. plenty of room in the bust. They always make those
dresses for girls with boobies.. darnit.
Stevie?!: *She grumbles and slams out the
door. Looking around almost wildly out the door, pushing past people.*
Kaitlyn Kelly: She continues to talk to
the guy, speaking suddenly to him in Spanish, the guys hands roaming over the
uncovered parts of her body. Laughing some she rubs against him and drags him
out to the dance floor for a dance.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Hmm." He grins a touch.
"But not as immortal as the Endless." He smiles and slips his arms around her
from behind, taking a more normal tone to his voice. More of a purr, now. "Glad
you could make it."
Cameo O'Brocki: She pays for her drink,
then moves back off from the bar. Not wanting to get crowded and bend her wings.
Stevie?!: Dammit! *She stomps a heeled
foot and looks around again. This time for a higher target.*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims follows Stevie
out the door, watching her and moves to catch up with her* "Stevie?"
Cameo O'Brocki: She looks over the crowd
with a bored glance. Sipping her drink.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *nose wrinkling with a
soft chuckle, she leans her head back and kisses the pasty skinned dream on the
chin* glad you could too...
Stevie?!: *She pretty well glowers at
Sims.* 'Bout time you showed up. You always take this long coming after a girl
in distress? *She grabs him by the arm and starts dragging him inside again.*
You're buying me a drink.
Simon "Sims" Ashford: "I was practically
behind you girl, whats goin on?" *He says as he is dragged back in* "Uh sure
what you want?"
Cameo O'Brocki: She sits at a small table
by herself. Crossing her legs and sipping her daquiri quietly. People watching.
Stevie?!: Anything. I don't care. *She
drags his butt towards the bar.*
Kaitlyn Kelly:
d10: dance/abil apt tango: 9,10,9,5,5,2,7,7,
Kaitlyn Kelly:
d10: reroll: 5,
Cameo O'Brocki: Her eyes lock on Kaitlyn.
Staring from her seat. Blatantly.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Mmm. Wouldn't miss it
for the world." He kisses her jawline and then slips around to take a seat,
ordering a bottle of Chivas Regal. "How are you?"
Kaitlyn Kelly: And Kait and her new
dance partner seem to be burning up the dance floor, as she has warmed up and he
is a pretty decent partner, taking her leads as they move in and out in the
traditional tango that she leads him. Even if the music doesn't seem the
conducive for it, the way the two dance, it doesn't matter.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : mmm...the usual...work,
work and more work....still getting things together for the clinic....things any
better for you?*giving a warm grin as she takes a few gulps of guiness*
Cameo O'Brocki: She shifts a bit in her
seat, eyes out to the dance floor. Watching.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He shrugs. "You could
call it good. I'm enjoying life more, at least." He smiles and, as a glass is
being poured for him from the bottle, he reaches out and lets his fingers trail
over her jawline. "You look incredible."
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *When they reach the
bar Sims quickly signals the bartender and orders a Smirnoff triple black for
her and a shot of whiskey for himself* "Here you go girl, or would you prefer
the shot? *He says with a grin*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : not killing yourself
anymore, definately good...*smiling with a slight brief blush at the touch to
her jawline* thanks...I was told I had to get this costume...*chuckling
softly*looking pretty spiff yourself
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "You like it?" He grins
a bit, arms extending out to the side to put himself on display. "I thought it
appropriate." He glances down the bar, to Sims and Stevie, then looks back to
Kae.
Stevie?!: This is fine. *She takes the
vodka and takes a sip, then simply holds the cup for a moment she turns to lean
her back against the bar. Her cloak coming up and around her arm in the action
though she doesn't bother to push it back.*
Stevie?!:
d10: per alert: 2,5,5,
Cameo O'Brocki: She downs the rest of her
daquiri and moves back toward the bar for another. Her movements are less than
graceful but not quite stupor just yet.
Kaitlyn Kelly: Kait's partner dips her low
as they finish their dance some watching them, and easily, he pulls her back to
her feet. She kisses his cheeks and thanks him for a wonderful dance, and
courtsies for some of the onlookers who'd been observing. Catching her breath,
she heads back to the bar again where she'd been, and moving past a couple to
order another drink since she'd left hers unattended.
Cameo O'Brocki: She looks over to Kaitlyn
when she moves up to the bar. Speaking quietly. Barely audible over the music.
"You're.. good. At.. that."
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Alertness: 8,1,2,5,3,5,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He doesn't note Cameo
and Kait's approaches, as intent as he is on Kae at the moment.
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *He looks to Stevie a
curious look on her face* "Hey Stevie, fuck our problems, lets have a good time
here tonight...what you say?" *He says as he slams back the shot and puts the
glass back on the bar* "You got the best thing goin in this entire place and i
wont stand for you leanin here" *He says with that grin*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : mmhmm....I caught the
irony*chuckling quietly, shaking her head, the curls bounce in a lively dance
with the ribbons, sliding over her bare shoulders as she takes another good
drink* so.....whats the plan for tonight oh master of dreams?
Kaitlyn Kelly: "Thank you," she says to
the woman.
Cameo O'Brocki: She averts her eyes from
kaitlyn and pays for her drink.
Stevie?!: *She looks up at him and a slow,
mischievous grin spreads over her lips again. She down the rest of the vodka,
makes a small face then shakes her head a little before putting the platic cup
on the bar.* So what are you gonna do about it?
Kaitlyn Kelly: She returns her attention
to the bar tender just getting a bottled water for the time being.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Plan?" He grins, and
delivers one of his trademark lines. "Baah. Plans are for the intelligent. Me,
I'm just here to enjoy myself. With you."
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *He grabs her by the
wrist and begins dragging her back towards the dance floor a grinning back to
her* "Were gonna dominate this shit" *He says as he begins moving and dancing*
Cameo O'Brocki: She rolls her shoulders
subtly, trying to relax. After another bland look around, she moves back away
from the bar back toward her table.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *that gets a snicker and
a shake of her head* killing a few braincells it is then...*raising her glass to
him*
Stevie?!: *She laughs and gets dragged
back to the dance floor.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He grins and raises his
glass, clinking against hers. "Who needs 'em anyway?"
Simon "Sims" Ashford:
d10: Take Over (WP): 3,2,1,8,7,9,9,
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *He begins to dance
quite well, slowly but surely clearing a space for them as he works up to a
fever pitch watching her. Waiting for her to join in*
Stevie?!:
d10: Dance WP: 3,6,6,9,3,1,8,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : exactly, fuck em*chuckling,
clinking glasses and taking a gulp*....theres plenty of starving zombies out
there that need a decent meal as it is right?
Stevie?!: It only takes her a moment
before she's moving and bouncing and swaying along with him, matching him move
for move. Whatever strangeness was there before seems to have passed now. Not at
all gawky or awkward, she moves with a seductive grace. Perhaps the warbler has
some swan in her too.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Damn skippy. Gotta feed
that zombie population." He downs his drink in a couple large swallows and sets
the glass down hard on the bar before taking her hand. "Come on. I've got enough
of a buzz starting already that I'm not too embarassed to dance."
Kaitlyn Kelly: She cools off with her
drink, watching the crowd around her.
Cameo O'Brocki: (I'ma filter her out. Can't
think of a reason for her to interact)
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : ooo hes a risk
taker....me dancing, let alone in heels....*giving a crooked grin again, letting
him take her hand and following his lead*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims moves in closer
meeting her seductive moves with his own sure movements as he presses closer to
her as they dance and keep a chunk of the dance floor for themselves* "See like
i said girl, you got it fuckin all"
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((*hugs Scar*)) "Always
a risk taker, dear Goddess. You know that." He winks at her and backs into the
crowd, clearing a space. Funny how your Auspice moon can be good for getting a
distance. He starts to move with the music, his body exceptionally close to
hers, nearly but not quite touching.
Kaitlyn Kelly: And with the water in
her, she drinks about half of it and scans the crowd for a possible new dance
partner. The drink soon forgotten. Seeing a woman who looks rather nice in a cat
outfit, she heads for her and speaks quietly with her for a few moment, before
taking her hand and guiding her out to the dance floor for a dance.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : point taken, forgetting
myself......proof Im doing my part...brain cell killing and all that...*half
smirking, she starts moving to the music, or trying to at least*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Dex+Performance: 2,5,3,9,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly :
d10: dancin: 5,9,1,6,4,
Stevie?!: *She grins at Sims.* You better
believe it! Brains, Beauty and Braun. It's such a trial to keep up with it. *She
smirks at him, an odd, almost challenging glint in her eyes.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Good? Ennh. Passable is
more like it. He isn't the most technically skilled dancer, that's for damn
sure. The only quality is in his devotion, in losing himself to the song. The
pulsing rhythm of the beat is matched (mostly) in time with is body, and he
slips behind Kae, an arm slipping around her waist as he pulls her close,
matching her movements as he leans down to brush lips over her neck.
Kaitlyn Kelly: The girl grins to Kait, who
smacks the cat lady's butt playfully as she gets her to go out to the dance
floor. Finding just the right beat, Kait starts to guide her once more in a
tango dance, as it is after all what she does best.
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *He grins right back*
"I think i got a handle on it" *he says as he continues to move quick and sure*
"Unless your just holdin back that is?" *He says matching that glint*
Kaitlyn Kelly:
d10: tango again/apt.: 7,3,9,2,6,7,7,9,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *it must be that arm
around her waist, or his closeness, or the lips on neck, her passable not as
good as his but she still tries*
Stevie?!: You gonna prove that one?
*Laughter in her eyes as she spins to just randomly start dancing with whoever
happens to be right there. Male or female, she doesn't care.*
Stevie?!:
d10: Per alert: 2,5,3,
Stevie?!: *And sadly is oblivious to the
amazing Tango queen.*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *He follows going for
the woman nearest to them, intent on showing his own skill, his eyes more to
stevie's as he does*
Simon "Sims" Ashford:
d10: Prove it (WP): 8,3,9,4,5,7,7,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He gives a slow smile
and sways with her, looking subtlely up and around as they move as one, bodies
pressed against each other.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Alertness: 9,4,4,5,6,3,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *right....other
dancers.....sure.....theyre about out there arent they? not like shed know at
the moment...must be the closeness, she takes a deep breath and lets it out
slowly, trying to relax more and move with him as she tries again, putting a
little more effort into it*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly :
d10: dancin(gettinintoit): 6,1,8,5,7,
Stevie?!: *With as much as he's watching
her, he might notice the subtle narrowing of her eyes and dark look that crosses
her features when he turns to dance with the other woman. She turns her back on
him completely committing herself to her new partner.*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims own eyes
narrow and shakes his head not sure what game shes playing. He dances with her
for a few more moments before turning away and heading for stevie and slips in
behind her and dances against her despite her other partner, leaning in towards
her ear and whispering* "Girl couldnt keep up like you can.. guess there aint
anyone better in the room"
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *nope...still not quite 'workin
it'....but it meshes with what hes doing a liiittle bit better*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He notes the little game
of jealousy between Sims and Stevie...and of course, the amazing tango going on
not far away. His head tilts, watching the Kaitlyn's passionate, skillful
motions with her partner, and then feels Kaeleigh put more into it. He smiles
and tries to pick up the pace himself, as the music switches to a remix of
Inkubus Sukkubus's "Take A Kiss." It's a typically gothic piece, with a dark,
ominous tone overlaid with passion, sweeping sounds, and more then a little
malevolance in the lyrics. The dance beat laid underneath it just serves to
enhance that mood. ((Lyrics here: http://tinyurl.com/ye854g ))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Dex+Perf (Wasted WP): 2,1,4,8,
Kaitlyn Kelly: Kait and the catwoman move
into another similiar type dance this time, moving effortlessly with the change
in dance steps.
Kaitlyn Kelly:
d10: dance/abil apt: 7,5,3,7,2,6,4,2,
Stevie?!: *She looks back at Sims over her
shoulder and snorts but she doesn't pull away. She just keeps moving with both
partners.*
Stevie?!:
d10: Dance some more: 7,10,6,4,7,8,5,
Kaitlyn Kelly: Something about the song
certainly inspires her and she becomes lost in everything around her except for
the woman with her, feeling the music, feeling the pulse, feeling so alive.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly :
d10: dancin: 4,3,9,2,1,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: His movements don't
improve any, but they do shift...something a bit slower, fitting the music, more
primal. The purple cloak follows his movements as he slides around Kae's body to
come in front of her, his arm moving with her and staying around her. He pulls
her close, tightly against her, and stares into her face with an expression
that's not entirely Aerin. There's something else there, something a touch
darker. He smirks a bit and leads her in the movements.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *must have been a bit too
into what she was doing and not listening to the music, when she notices hte
change its after the new songs started, her cheeks flushing slightly with a
sheepish grin and shake of her head, looking up and about for a moment*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims presses on doing
his best to show his superiority over the other partner dancing with abandon*
Stevie?!: *Perhaps it's the fact that she
has two partners now paying attention to her. Or maybe it's the change in song
to suit her mood. Whatever it is, her eyes close and she melds with the music as
if it were playing just for her. Living it. Breathing it.*
Simon "Sims" Ashford:
d10: Dance: 9,7,10,1,9,10,5,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *but her attention is
taken when he moves in front of her and looks at her like that, pulled
close,shes distracted definately now, aqua blue eyes to his*
Stevie?!: ((And somewhere...there's a
fight that is about to leave players crying for the lack of successes))
Adriana Carmichael: (don't worry. it'll
probably be casey iver. *EG* open still?)
Simon "Sims" Ashford: ((It always happens
that way:P))
Simon "Sims" Ashford: ((Aye aye))
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: *he
can probably feel the shiver run through her close as they are now, pulse
quickening just a touch for a moment*
Stevie?!: ((Sure is, come join, dance in
our circle. *G*))
Adriana Carmichael: (right-o. Awareness
diff 9 if you like) The woman seems out of her element, staring around the place
as though the entire venue were one gigantic germ. Be strong.. we've been
working hard for this. She's even dressed up for her evening out. A simple black
gown, elegant really. Matching black gloves that cover to just above the elbow.
Dark hair down, falling in simple waves toward the small of her back. She's even
wearking makeup. She looks.. almost normal.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Open!)) He gives a low
chuckle and leans in, whispering in her ear as they move.
Adriana Carmichael: (lol. yeeeeeeeeah..
let's see someone try to rub up on her. i daaaare you. *EG*) She moves elegantly
toward the bar.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3] -> Kaeleigh O'Reilly :
"Are you all right?" It's said in a tone that, much like his attitude, is not
quite Aerin. It seems, again, a bit darker...he seems much more the predatory
creature he is.
Kaitlyn Kelly: Kait and her partner
finish and she is grinning as the girl seems to want to come with her and is
still holding onto Kait's hand. It doesn't take too long for them to start
heading toward the downstairs area of the club, catwoman leading Kait instead,
to which she starts smiling even wider now.
Adriana Carmichael: She slips up toward the
bar.. but isn't quite bold enough to actually touch the thing. "Grey goose,
dear. Start a tab under carmichael."
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims keeps himself
tight against Stevie, his moves in time with hers and still impressive compared
to her other partner as he works to overthrow his "opponent". However he does
not move to move away unless Stevie does as well*
Adriana Carmichael: She clasps a gloved hand
around her glass, moving away from the bar. Staring with disgust at all the
dancers.
Adriana Carmichael:
d10: p/a: 8,7,7,5,5,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Alertness: 4,8,5,5,4,7,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He looks up as he awaits
an answer from Kae, briefly locking eyes with Adriana. He smirks a bit and nods
to her.
Adriana Carmichael: She casts a subtly
surprised look in Aerin's direction before averting her eyes. Maybe embarassed
to be seen out of her usual attire. And in a place like this nonetheless.
Stevie?!: *A grin spreads over her lips
again. She can feel him move behind her, in perfect time with her. She doesn't,
however, turn around. Still she waits, keeping her apparent attention on the
other partner.*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: will check: 7,6,1,8,5,8,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
(sorry, just figured the closeness and manner called for one, and wasnt sure how
to do it*sheepish look* )
Aerin Thomas [PB 3] -> Kaeleigh O'Reilly :
((No, makes perfect sense. *S*))
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
(what would you say the diff is tho?*hasnt a clue, not really ever having had to
do one before*)
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Sims almost frowns,
his obvious capability proven he grows impatient as he moves his hands up to her
shoulder and spins her round making himself the front partner.* "I dont think
they can keep up with you either girl" *He says leaning in close pulling her to
him*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3] -> Kaeleigh O'Reilly :
((It's his Auspice...since we're kind of ad hocing this a bit, I'd set it...say
7, because of it being his Auspice moon? And since she got 2 succ vs. his 4
Rage, she might be a bit nervous, but not completely freaked or anything.))
Adriana Carmichael: She does what she can to
avoid human contact. Dodging when necessary. Keeping her eyes down and around
her direct area.. just in case.
Stevie?!: *The mischief is back in her
eyes as she murmurs back to him.* Took you long enough to figure it out. *She
rubs up against him as they move to the beat, absolutely no shame.*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *cheeks blushing a touch,
she shakes her head and murmurs quietly when she finally finds her tongue to
speak, taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: its
...nothing.....Im fine...*giving a slight smile, not moving away from him in the
least, stealing glances to those eyes though again*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods a little bit
and keeps watching her, those intense eyes, made stranger by the inverse
black-and-white contacts, stare at her...almost ~through~ her. When the song
ends, he pulls a little away and slips an arm around her waist. "Time for
another drink, I think." He starts to lead them back toward the bar, looking
over to Adriana and watching her as they move.
Adriana Carmichael: She keeps quiet. To
herself. Sipping her vodka.
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Feeling her movement
against him and her words he to abandons any decency and begins to move against
her as well, pulling her right up to him and almost abandoning the other person
to whatever end they choose for themselves.* "Shit Stevie, your wild"
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *taking a deep breath,
she sighs it out softly and nods, heading back to the bar with him, noticing the
glance elsewhere, she looks as well briefly, blinks, and just barely makes the
connection on adriana(unless she has arcane? cant remember), looking quite
different than the last time she saw her a while ago*
Stevie?!: *She slides her arms around
him.* Mmm...*She murmurs into his ear.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He looks over at
Kaeleigh as they reach the bar and he fills his glass off the scotch. "You know
her?"
Adriana Carmichael: (nope. no arcane)
Adriana Carmichael: She adjusts a strand of
stray hair, sipping her drink. Standing somewhat nervously near the bar, but not
at it.
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *He grins and nods his
head, and begins moving off of towards the edge of the dancefloor. Still dancing
with her*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : yeah.....met her once or
twice, while ago....brilliant doctor if I remember right....*glancing over again
to adriana, she looks back to aerin and nods with a soft smile, ordering a few
shots of whiskey, not trusting a drink left on the bar(ie the remains of the
guiness)* you know her too?
Stevie?!: *She moves along with him,
waving to the other person she had partnered with.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods a little.
"Drinking and conversation partner. We've been out of touch." He raises the
glass to his lips. "Go and say hello?"
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *Finally reaching the
edge of the dance floor Sims takes Stevie's hand and heads for the exit, looking
back to her just to make sure shes still there even if he can still feel her
hand*
Adriana Carmichael: She gives her glove an
absent tug. A nervous habit. Eyes darting to anyone who gets in her personal
bubble.
Stevie?!: *She grins at him, following
along closely so they wont get separated.*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : I....yeah
sure...*shrugging and nodding* if you want...*giving a smile as she downs one of
the shots with a shiver and bit more of a grin*
Simon "Sims" Ashford: *And with that they
pass through the doors and out into the night. Grins on both of their faces*
Stevie?!: ((Thanks for the scene!))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((*G* Enjoy, guys.
Night, and thanks!)) He nods and grabs the bottle and glass, moving just ahead
of Kae as he approaches Adriana. A little nod is given to her. "Doctor."
Simon "Sims" Ashford: ((Thanks guys!))
Adriana Carmichael: She gives a subtle nod
to Aerin an Kae. "Good evening. The two of you seem to be.. enjoying yourselves.
I thought it best not to intrude."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *her other shot in her
hand, shes not far behind aerin, nodding and smiling to adriana when they reach
her* hello
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Not at all. I
mean...yes, we were enjoying..." He casts a grin over to Kaeleigh, and then
looks back. "But it's good to see you. It's been a while. How have you been?"
Adriana Carmichael: She nods. "Productive on
most accounts. I've accomplished a great deal since our last encounter. I'm
setting up my own private practice.. which is going well. I even made a friend
in the process."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : private practice? general
medicine or along the same specialty?*smiling a little more, dipping a sip of
the shot before downing the thing and setting the glass down8
Adriana Carmichael: "The same specialty.
General practice would bore me to tears."
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Very nice," he says
with a nod, and takes a sip off of his drink. He tilts his head, watching her a
little bit. "I'm glad you're doing well."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : *she smiles and nods
to that, murmuring something about understanding with a soft chuckle before
turning to the bar to order another drink(another guiness)*
Adriana Carmichael: She takes down the rest
of hers and motions for another of the same. Setting the glass to the bar. "And
how've you two been?"
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He shrugs a bit. "Been
worse. Had a bit of a revelation a few weeks ago. Kind of set a heavy weight off
my shoulder."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : not so bad....working
alot, getting a free clinic started up in spare time....*shrugging slightly
herself, half leaning against the bar*
Adriana Carmichael: "A good revalation
then.. I'm assuming?"
Adriana Carmichael: She nods to Kae
"Excellent, dear. Though.. I can't recall exactly what it is that you ~do~."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly : Im....trauma surgeon, the
ER at bellevue....
Adriana Carmichael: "Right. Sorry."
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He shrugs. "Good,
mostly. Realized that a lot of shit I was spending my time killing myself over
just...wasn't worth it. So it's time for some me time, finally."
Adriana Carmichael: "If that's what you
enjoy doing, I suppose."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she shakes her head
and shrugs to the sorry with a polite smile, nabbing up the guiness and taking a
good drink of it before looking around at the place for a bit*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Well, I sure as hell
wasn't enjoying sticking my hand in the fire and being surprised when it came
back burned." He chuckles a little, pulling a clove. "So we'll try the other
side for a bit, you know?"
Adriana Carmichael: "You shouldn't feel the
need to associate with me out of fear of being rude, dear. It's obvious that the
two of you.." She waves between them with a gloved hand ".. are on some social
outting. You should be enjoying your time together."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she blushes, but shakes
her head in protest* Im sorry, Im just a bit distracted tonight....its not that,
really*smiling warmly to adriana now, being honest*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Not at all, Adriana."
He raises a brow. "If I hadn't wanted to come over, I wouldn't have."
Adriana Carmichael: She purses her lips,
reaching for her fresh drink. "Alright, then."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *taking another good gulp
of her drink, she sets it down again and clears her throat softly, murmuring a
soft excuse me(gesturing the general direction of the unisex bathrooms) before
leaning to kiss aerins cheek gently * be right back....*smiling to them both and
heading for the bathrooms*(afk for a moment, so kinda worked out*G* brb)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He takes a good, strong
swallow off his scotch. "We should hang out more some time, Adriana. I've missed
our talks, really."
Adriana Carmichael: Adriana watches her move
off, sipping her drink. Looking back to Aerin.
Adriana Carmichael: She nods. "I have as
well, dear. My number hasn't changed. I've just been.. occupied. I'm sorry I
haven't contacted you."
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "It's alright...I've
been much the same. We both have our business, after all." A drag is taken off
the clove and exhaled to the side.
Adriana Carmichael: She nods, sipping her
drink. Looking him over. "So.. you have been well then, yes?" She seems
concerned for the man. "In good health and mind?"
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Good health, yeah, for
the most part. Few scrapes and bullet holes, but other then that, I'm good." He
chuckles. "As for good mind..." The man shrugs, looking to the dance floor.
"Let's call it...better mind."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *after a few minutes
she comes back, idly playing with a few of those bouncy curly tendrils of hair
and smiling as she slides in behind aerin, kissing his neck and murmuring softly
before adressing them both* sorry about that...*nabbing her drink to sip at
before leaning against him slightly*
Adriana Carmichael: She nods, following his
gaze. Maybe mimicing his actions in a manner. "Better will suffice. You seem
content at the very least."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
*she murmurs a soft 'I love you' when she whispers to him, one hand sliding
around his waist to give a brief squeeze before she nabs her drink, etc*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He smiles back at
Kaeleigh, leaning into her, and looks at Adriana. "I am content, for the moment.
No one's pissed me off in at least 24 hours."
Adriana Carmichael: "The lack of anger does
not ensure an overall content feeling. Trust me."
Adriana Carmichael -> Aerin Thomas [PB
3]: d10: alyssa per+awa: 5,1,4,3,9,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: it helps
though.....*smiling slightly and taking a few more gulps*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Well, for now, I'll
take what I can get, you know? Not pissed off, with occasional moments of
happy."
Adriana Carmichael: "Anger is an easy
emotion to grasp. One of the few that I can honestly relate to. It carries a
purpose, for the most part."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: sounds like a weather
report...*chuckling softly, giving a gentle nudge where she leans against him,
then nodding to adriana* keeps focus, thats for sure, if you channel it right
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Anger does have a
purpose," he says with a nod. "Sometimes, it's difficult to focus, though. And I
got sick of being pissed at everything all the time."
Adriana Carmichael: "I understand." She
says, trailing off. Taking a sip of her voka.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she nods in understanding
as well, downing hte rest of her guiness and stretching slightly before leaning
back against aerin* it does eat at you if you use it too much
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods and falls quiet,
watching Adriana for a moment.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Emp (Adri): 8,6,1,8,7,5,9,
Adriana Carmichael -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
She has an extremely low self image, a lonely woman. Unsure of herself, but
trying desparately to 'fit in'. (and if she's gotten the message about snyde
already) A deep sense of betrayal and hurt. Loss and helplessness.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (*swears is going to
schlap on an emoti-limiter thingamajiggy on aerin one of these days* LOL)
Adriana Carmichael: She purses her lips,
looking over to Aerin. "It's.. rude to stare, dear."
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He furrows his brow
slightly, quiet for a long moment.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Sorry." He nods a
little bit. "Spaced out there for a moment. My bad."
Adriana Carmichael: She nods, downing the
rest of her vodka and reaching into her purse to pay for her drinks.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
*one hand gently rubs along his back, trying to comfort some*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: it is getting late....you
allright?*leaning around to look at him*
Adriana Carmichael: After paying, she
smooths her gloved hands over the front of her gown. "I really should be on my
way.. your company was a pleasant surprise. Thank you."
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Getting a little
tired..." He shrugs and looks back to her. "Call it here and go home for the
rest of the night?"
Adriana Carmichael: She moves off toward the
exit.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: it was nice to see you
again Dr Carmichael*smiling warmly again and nodding when she mentions going,
then looking to aerin and nodding as well* my place?
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Good night, Adriana."
He watches her go, and then looks to Kae with a grin. "Sounds like a plan."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *putting down money for
their drinks*good...cmon tall pale and broody....*chuckling a little as she nabs
one of his hands with both of hers* youre getting special permission to mess
with mother nature
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Mmm...I like that
permission. Must have been a good Lord of Nightmares..." He smirks and moves
along to the door with her.
