(Memory Lane) Hotel Action

[Rhodes]

"I know the feeling," Rhodes sighs, witha smile. "Still." He lowers his voice, and leans in to Circe's ear. "If you want to play, get what toys you think will be best. Just know it won't do me much good whatever you bring, since I have far more practice with my tongue. It's the weapon I use best."


The Fairest leans back, his expression an immaculate deadpan. "Sound fair?"

[Circe]

"Ooooh so good. But is it horrid that I just had this mental image of ya just," the goth disguised woman sticks out her tongue and darts it about, "Goin' all prehensile with yer tongue? I know what ya meant but still, it just popped in there," she smiles and finally takes off her gloves to pocket them.

[Titania]

"The last Great war of course", it came out nonchalant.

Her eyes widened with feigned shock, "They might be", nodding knowingly, "the people behind this... this scheme? They're dangerous and scary", she said.
A concerned look appears on the girl's face, a flimsy hand tucks her hair behind her ear.

"Aren't you scared? Don't you think they might be following us?", she batted her long eyelashes looking innocently at the man. A performance worthy of Dame Alice Ellen Terry.

OOC

Didn't know that to roll, since it's not really a lie even though she's not disclosing the truth, so I wouldn't know if subterfuge was the right choice. I rolled expression, but her persuasion pool is identical. I don't expect the roll to have much efect, but in any case feel free to ignore it if the wrong skill was used

[Yumyumcrow]

Pico was looking at Titania again.

This time with his mouth open. He rapidly closes it. Still staring at the Lost with a curiously peculiar look of his own, he drums his fingers on the table's edge.

Then he begins packing up his stuff. As he does so, he speaks in a dreadfully calm voice.

"I believe you. Let's assume we're being watched. I'm going to leave. Look hurt, then leave once I've gone. You have my number. Call me back later. If I can't help you I know some people who might. If you feel you are being followed or threatened, go here ________. It's a dive bar in North Sacramento. Ask for Ronnie G."

And with that he walks away without looking back.

Running over time and I think the main points of the scene have been reached. I suggest we begin a new scene so you can share your discoveries, plan, and possibly recruit again if you wish to continue with the PrP

[Rhodes]

The Flowering raises an eyebrow. "True class, as ever." He smiles. "Let's see what our starry-eyes girl picked up, and go searching."

I'm good with moving on and regrouping, and carrying on.

[Titania]

"A dive... a dive bar?", she said staggered, her cheeks flushed pink. She had heard of those disreputable establishments, just what were Pico's true intentions?

Then the not so gentlemanly detective packs up and leaves, unceremoniously cutting her objection mid-sentence and abandoning her with the bill, evidently the detective's aid didn't come free. The little unemployed Fairest looks around in a panic, what if she had to settle the detective's tab? Did she have enough money with her?
Look hurt he said, flabbergasted even. No wonder she did; there for a second she agreed with Circe's assessment, Mr. Pico was a private D... devil, indeed. She pocketed her phone, recollected herself, and counting what meager income was left in her now anorexic cat-purse, walked to the register.

Yeah, follow up, follow up. It was fun!
