Tale Weaver's Vampire: The Masquerade Game Board

[Strider_Koln]

Clover shot Koln another dirty look, disregarding the "royal" company that entertained her and almost completely losing her manners--and temper--as she practically spat at the priest, "Would it kill you to use your ears, Koln? Edward has already stated quite directly: he needs to find out more about Thaddeus' location AND that we should do our best to draw Bothwell to us, not bother searching for a needle in a haystack. Denver's a big place. It is especially fortuitous for someone who doesn't want to be found. My God! Do I have to do everything myself?"

Koln leans over Clover's shoulder and whispers:

[sblock]"We're dealing with things far beyond us.. stuff you never even fancied to imagine as a human I bet. Yes, I am aware what Edward has said, that we should lure him to us, but what better way to draw out bees than to cautiously poke around the hive? If we are not vigilant and aggressive, evil will indeed come to us, but it won't be on our terms. Eh, but what do I know? I'm just a trained hunter and priest. If you really want to take charge, be my guest, but do not use the Lord's name in vain again. Unless you worship a false diety, next time you call for God, you better mean it."[/sblock]

With that Koln steps behind Clover and lowers the brim of his hat over his eyes before crossing his arms.

Clover pouted and managed to grumble, "Poke around the hive and you'll eventually get stung," before crossing her own arms stubbornly and pressing her mouth together tightly, signaling to Koln that she wasn't going to say any more.
Barely 20 seconds passed, though, before she found herself blurting in yet another grumble, "And I've said that plenty of times before without you getting all tied up in knots over it! Geez, Koln Clergue, you're awfully hypocritical sometimes..."
*more pouting*

With all the pouting and frowning going on, Ruby soaked it all in and started to frown herself. She bounced back and forth to each of them with sad puppy eyes.
Aww come on guys, don't be sore at each other.." she started with a little whimper. She gave Koln a hug and pushed the brim of his hat up. "Come on now..."
She then bounded over to Clover and gave her a hug to. "Lets see some smiles.. We will get to the bottom of this.."

Koln remains silent, in the times he's heard her say it, she's meant it, at least from what he could tell. There will be time to talk later, now is not the time. Now they should be learning what they can from Edward. Clover did have a point though in a way. His method would undoubtedly result in a violent confrontation with Bothwell. He doesn't mind being 'stung,' but cannot expect Clover to be so strong. It would be wise to keep unnoticed... however if they're dealing with whom he thinks they are, then they already know all about them and it is a miracle they have not struck yet.

He warmly smiles down at Ruby and hugs her, masking his fear that she too is slowly changing. "Heh, I'm not mad at Clover, we're just both very stubborn individuals."

The Broadstreet

Clover shot Koln another dirty look, disregarding the "royal" company that entertained her and almost completely losing her manners--and temper--as she practically spat at the priest, "Would it kill you to use your ears, Koln? Edward has already stated quite directly: he needs to find out more about Thaddeus' location AND that we should do our best to draw Bothwell to us, not bother searching for a needle in a haystack. Denver's a big place. It is especially fortuitous for someone who doesn't want to be found. My God! Do I have to do everything myself?"
Suddenly, she pulled a complete 180 and turned back to Edward, her face dripping with sweetness and respect, "Edward. We will be sure to do as you ask. I believe we have some leads on how to contact Dr. Liverman. Perhaps if we find him, we could--gently, of course--persuade him to help us with whatever is in those vials. We will report to you as soon as we have Bothwell in our clutches... I mean custody." ^.^

Edward watches the group quarrel amongst themselves before slamming his fist down on his desk "Enough!". He points to Clover "I agree with her plan, you should go find this Doctor if you believe that he'll help you to better understand those vials and what Prestor was doing. Don't worry yourselves with Brothwell right now, he'll come to you I'm sure."

Edward looks over at Koln who is standing behind Clover "However, the priest does have a point. If you were to see Brothwell you should at least know what he looks like. He is a Caucasian man who appears to be in his late teens. He has short cropped blond hair and he dresses like most of the folks at the Broadstreet. He mostly used to hang around here but would occassionally be seen at the 24th Diocese as well as the mall because most young vampires go to these places because of the abundance of humans. As I have said before though, since nobody has seen him it would most likely be a waste of your time to go to these places yourselves and look."

Edward gets up to his desk and walks towards the door. "I wish you luck on meeting with this Dr. Liverman. If I may make a suggestion I would say that you would probably be best setting up a meeting with him rather than just showing up at his doorstep...that tends to creep people out a bit. And unlike other humans you have encountered, this Doctor may know about vampires due to his relationship with Prestor. Now unless you have any other pressing questions I really must get back to business here and make sure my band isn't out feeding off of heroin addicts...again. I will call you if anything surfaces about Brothwell on my end."

Edward looks at all of you standing in his office silently. "Well...if nobody has any questions then I really must get back to business here." Edward ushers you out the door and disappears into the crowd after locking the door behind him. You are now all standing in the main area of the Broadstreet. The majority of the crowd is near the stage as Edward talks to his regulars who are gathered around him.

Clover nodded after Edward. Then, she tossed her hair defiantly in Koln's direction: clearly signaling to him that their argument was not over. Then, she sighed, "Well, I suppose that's about all we can do for tonight. At least we showed him that we're still on-board and willing to help. Keeping up appearances, of course. Right? Anyway, we should probably get in touch with Liverman soon. And..." she hesitated, "...as much as I just adore the sewer, I think that we should make one more pass of it soon. Maybe... maybe we can find some clues as to what happened to..." Her voice trailed off. If she could choose any remaining link to her humanity, she would be damn certain to pour her dwindling heart and soul into the hunt for Susie! Even if it led her to ruin...

Koln nods at Clover's suggestion, "Yes, I have the terrible feeling we might have missed something in the sewer. I have some unfinished business down there... Now I haven't been watching much television, but have you or Ruby heard anything about the police investigation to those responsible for Susie's disappearance? " Koln asks as they step out of the club.

 

[izillama]

Clover shook her head, "All I saw the other night was the report that a... body had been found. When I got to the scene they were just wrapping up. I saw Detective Brandt hurry away from the scene. I'm not sure what that was about. You know, I haven't checked the news in a few days. Or the newspaper. I wonder if there was anything else?"
