[d20 Modern] Session One: Funky Martian Monks (CowBoy BeBop)

[Byrons_Ghost]

Vincent stiffens noticeably at mention of Mei. Hardening his gaze, he says to his brother "I'm not fooling myself about seeing Mei again. So you can relax about that angle of things."

Vincent then pauses for a moment, trying to calm himself. "I'm with a bounty crew- we're looking for a monk named Jun, who stole the scroll from the temple. You've probably heard the news. Once we've found him and gotten paid, we're leaving."

"You're doing bounties now?" James smirked and then nearly laughed. "My brother - the bounty hunter. Catch anything yet? And what about you, Raven, you bounty hunting, too?" He flicked the cigarette onto the ground, digging it in with the toe of his shoe.

"Never should have come back, Vin." The dyed blonde locks shimmered in the streetlight when he shook his head. "Never should have come back. Don't you know? People here, they want you dead. You're mighty inconvenient alive and all. Mighty inconvenient."

OOC: RAVEN, VINCENT

At Chases hint that maybe he'd take her home tonight, the waitress is again all smiles and kisses. She giggles and goes to set up the drink for him to give to his friend.

Bobcat's inability to answer straight away, perhaps she was just too shocked, gave Kazuhito a 'green light' ... at least in his rather self-centered world. He slipped an arm around her waist familiarly.

"I'm thinking that maybe a drink and then some more time getting to know one another better." By the smell on his breath, Bobcat was sure he'd already started the drinking way before she had ever gotten there. And then a glass was pressed against her hand, half lifting it to her lips as if to encourage her to partake of the liquor.

OOC: BOBCAT, CHASE

Bobcat overcame her revulsion and peered into the cup being offered her. Sniffing it quickly, she wondered if Kazuhito was slimy enough to slip some kind of drug into her drink. She figured that he probably was, but at least Chase's presence offered some back up and reassurance. And she really needed that drink, if she was ever going to loosen up in the monk's company.

"Bottom's up," she toasted, her usual peppiness reasserting itself as she took hold of the glass and downed it all with a long, single swallow.

Chase remains seated watching the scene, with the look of a casual onlooker, and sips at his water, trying not to fantasize about the woman he is supposed to save, and failing miserably.

"Well it's too bad we didn't consider of this... inconvenience years ago. Of course, I didn't know that there was anything to consider, now did I?"

Vincent looks at his brother for a minute, and then at his watch. "If you're here to warn me, then thanks. Otherwise, we're on something of a time schedule here..."

The liquor burned to her throat and it was all Bobcat could do to keep from choking. Whatever the hell it was tasted god-awful and Bobcat was pretty sure if she was near anything flammable it would have burst into flame right about now.

"Its very good, yes?" Kazuhito took the glass from her, placing yet another in her hand. "Have some more. Nothing more pleasing to me than a woman who can hold her drink." He squeezed her waist. '"It means she's not afraid to loosen up and enjoy herself."

OOC: CHASE, BOBCAT

Chase rolls his eyes, "God this guy is pretty bad, kill them with kindness eh, Kazuhito," he says to himself, "or is that drown their inhibitions in spirits... what a loser..."

 

[loxmyth]

Bobcat's cheeks blushed into a healthy rosy hue as she swalloweed. A little teary-eyed, she nodded at the monk. "Mm-hmm. Quite tasty!" she added, with a little too much enthusiasm. A small hiccup escaped her mouth, and she covered it quickly in embarassment.

"So, you come here regularly?" she asked him, trying to start up a conversation to cover the fact that she was trying to slip out of his grasp. "I didn't figure you for the discotheque type." Despite herself, she giggled at the thought of the guy in bell-bottoms and platform shoes. She looked around for a table that they could sit at - it would give her an excuse to get some space between them.

Once she found one suitably close to Chase, she lead her date over to it.

"Oh yes - they know me everywhere around here," Kazuhito explained, alternately eyeing Bobcat's cleavage and her rear while half-leading her to the table. "Especially the ladies," he added with a wink that was less that innocent.

The closest table let Chase further into the conversation as he could hear pretty much nearly everything from where he was sitting. None of which seemed to bolster his opinion of this so-called monk.

"I am very rich, as you well know, to inherit more money than anyone in this city knows what to do with." Kazuhito pulled the chair that Bobcat was sitting in close to him. "And rich heirs always need to have their pleasures. And what of you? What do you like to do?" Not that he seemed interested in anything but liquor, himself, and sex.

OOC: CHASE, BOBCAT
