"Get out." Clover pointed at the door, her gaze deadly serious.

 

[Strider_Koln]

Mindy looks at Koln disdainfully "I suppose I do need to make a confession to you father. I know I've been a bad girl, I tend to eat my supper before sayin' grace. But there's somthin' I just can't put my finger on, I don't understand it, but I feel like I'm in love with Angie. Like I'd do anythang for her. I mean not quite in a romantic way, but definitely more than a best friend way. Does that make any sense?"
.

Koln sighs at her words, taking off his hat for a moment, revealing the white rat known as Socrates on his head. "Mindy, I need you to listen with your ears, all of them, comprenez-vous? For you see, in the beginning, God made Adam and Eve... well really Adam and Lilith, then Adam and another one, but the third one, Eve, that's the one. Anyway, He made Adam and Eve, not Adam and ghoul."

He places his hat back on his head, covering Socrates again before continuing. "Well consider this. You may have faltered in your Service to the Lord, but so too have you faltered in your service to Clover. You decided to get her a bite to drink, and that was nice, but took it too far. You fornicated with her nourishment. Now Mindy, picture moi, pants around my ankles, fornicating with your milkshake. Would you want to drink that milkshake? Exactly, you owe Clover and the Lord and apology."

He stands but stops in front of the door, addressing Mindy again without looking at her "Never confuse the Lord's will for anyone else's. That is the worst, losing yourself to a false god... allons-y!!" Koln shouts, kicking the unlocked door back open.

"AND YOU!" Pointing at Lacey. "I DID NOT HEAR YOU SAY GRACE!"

Clover stood up rapidly from her bed as Koln burst into her room. Before Lacey could even say anything, she found herself shouting, "AND YOU! IF YOU KNOCK DOWN MY DOOR ONE MORE TIME TONIGHT I'M GOING TO COMMAND YOU INTO A DOWNWARD DOG!" She placed her hands on her hips, outraged.

Koln blinks confusedly, then walks up to Lacey, asking her "Uhm... did the four-leafed one just threaten me by turning me into a doggy... can Ventrue vampires do that? If so,where do I sign up?"

Mindy stand there speechless as Koln kicks down the door after his speech. She then says to no one in particular "Ok I got it! I'll only kiss him next time!"

Koln blinks confusedly, then walks up to Lacey, asking her "Uhm... did the four-leafed one just threaten me by turning me into a doggy... can Ventrue vampires do that? If so,where do I sign up?"

Lacey puts a finger to her lip as she thinks on Koln's question. "You know, I did hear about a Ventrue turning into a bitch once..."

Ruby looks nervously at Clover as her expression turns even more violent. She lets out a weak laugh "C'mon Lacey, take my hand. We're going to go shower. I even have soap and this stuff called shampoo....and...con-di-tion-er? Oh heck, let's go!"

Ruby takes Lacey's hand and leads her out of the room passing Mindy who eyes Lacey suspiciously. Mindy goes back into the room and says "I guess I should take ol' Rob here back to his room. I'll umm...dress more appropriately an' come back in a jiffy." Mindy picks a half conscious Rob up from the chair and supports him as he stumbles alongside her. They exit leaving Clover and Koln alone in the room together.

Koln nods, sitting back down on the bed. Again his eyes flash and he makes a gagging noise, standing straight back up as if a bolt of lightning hit him in a butt.

"Ah so.. four leafed one. We get syrups, meet mr wizard, make low-fat syrup for the Prince and his pancakes as we head west I think, no?"

 

[izillama]

Clover tilted her head slowly, as though gauging Koln's thought process. Syrup? No. Wizard? No. Damn it, what was he even taking about!? But west?

"What's west, Koln?"

"What's west, Koln?"

Koln lets out an exasperated sigh. "I apologize, I am very weary... allow someone else to, how you say, 'break it down' to you." He takes off his hat, removing the white rat from his head and holds it in front of Clover. Koln then says a higher pitched voice:

"Hallo! Ze unpurple Princey wanted syrups, which we have. But I am, how you say, worried about his diet, so we want to give him a low-calorie verzione! He will say 'I can't believe it's not butter!' as he won't be the wiser. We need help, so we nicely ask Mr. Wizard to manufacture the syrups' twins!"

"We then make off with the real syrups for our toast as Lacey becomes ze new pigeon in the city of many angels! Comprenez vous?"

Koln tilts Socrates some in front of her, as he asks, waiting for her response.

OOC: ROFL!!!


in game:

Clover smiled and reached out to pet Socrates' head with a finger. Then she looked up at Koln with a tilt of her head and a mischievous smile, "So, you want to dupe the Prince? I'm not sure how smart that would be. Koln, we still know so little about vampire politics. How far does his reach extend? Do you think we'd easily be forgiven for trying to trick him? For succeeding?" Her smile dropped a margin, along with her voice, "I feel no loyalty towards him, but he's generously granted up help and sanctuary thus far. I'm surprised he allowed us to exist in Denver for as long as he did. I'm sure other young vampires haven't been as lucky."

Clover laughed darkly and reached out to take Socrates from Koln's grip, holding the diminutive mammal in her two hands. She suddenly became sad. Her words were edged with melancholy, and a bit of fear, "I know I can't stay here, Koln. If there's one last service I can do to my parents, it's to make sure they never have to know what I became. To make sure that they know I can't be retrieved. But also to give them closure. I know I need to leave this place. For them..." She handed Socrates back to Koln, avoiding the man's gaze, "But even knowing that, even hearing myself say it... I'm scared. It frightens me how fragile I still am. How easily I was hurt tonight. I'm too much of a liability to you and to Ruby. How can I do that to you? In good conscious, how can I continue to hinder you both? And Denver is all I've known since this change. I think I'm scared to venture further than it. At least we know what we're up against here. At least we're beginning to understand this city."

Backing up from him, she sat down on the edge of her bed and stared him straight in the eye, determination growing on her face, "If you want to leave, I can't stop either of you. Hey, I'll even help you. I'm not dead yet. I still have influence. Money. Contacts. Whatever you need. But just you, Koln. I don't want to go with you and Ruby. I can't."
