    Her skin brings to mind Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, or Asian races, though her high cheek bones and sharp facial structure don't match. Most assume she is of mixed ancestry given the pale blonde hair. Alias Mary Maniscalo.

    Circe had chosen a lovely hotel for her liasson with Nathaniel based upon a few criteria. Free breakfast, thickness of wall, and privacy signs for the door knobs.

    Sadly no jokes about bed's a squeaking don't come a peeking. Circe had bothered to ask and she'd taken her Hedgespun dress for the giggles. The teenager manning the desk had to be relieved thanks to the innuendo Circe was using while getting a room. The elderly woman dealt with Circe quite well.

    Circe was further delayed by a half hour talking to the old lady. Who was really cool it turned out, complimenting Circe on her technique and trying to turn the tables on Circe.

    With that done Circe drives her Charger to the door for the room. Circe has 2 bags with her things carried into the room. Setting them down she texted Nathaniel with the room number. One bag has mechanical toys for if they got into the science along, including a small tarp. The other? Well dress for success. Hedgespun? Tight Denim? Nuclear Dress? The business suit she was currently wearing just without the dress shirt beneath?

    She made a choice and then killed time. Watching a stupid cartoon about a dumb puppy girl whilst killing pigs with agitated birds upon her phone.

    Ok. So.

    This was happening. This was... Actually happening.

    Nathaniel had already packed the basics- a few checked out library books on ghosts and other occult matters, a handful of cheap supplies. Salt, sage, rosemary, thyme, a wooden bowl, cloth, crushed up bones from last night's chicken wings, the occult journal that he didn't include any Uratha details in. A few empty containers. And finally, everything else one would need to be safe during tonight's events.

    Plenty of research and tests they could do- assuming Marie still wanted to do so afterwards, which he hoped for. One of his nicer suits today, his protective charm tucked into it for comfort. Check his teeth again, check his hair, murmur a short prayer. Tonight would go well.

    He made his way to the hotel, deciding to hire a cab this time around. At the door he took a deep breath, trying to prepare himself for the battle ahead. and knocked.

    It was about a couple of minutes before 'Mary' answered the door. She also made sure to pack away her newest toy, the pretty nifty looking multi-tool. It'd help test the camera if they actually built it instead of fun times.

    Circe had been tempted to wear that dress but figured Nathaniel would feint. Also C-strings were not exactly comfortable. So Circe had instead opted for her usual suits in a different style. A little freedom of the chest was nice. Circe also kept a picture of herself in that dress on her phone. As a teasing option.

    She opens the door and decides to lean up against the side of it with her forearm resting up it raised up, "Oh my, if it isn't a gentleman caller ta my room. I have something that needs work. Do ya have the right tool?"

    Yes she starts flirting as soon as he is in sight.

    A few moments passed and Nathaniel was starting to wonder if he had the right room, shrugging his backpack a few times, double checking his phone and-

    "Luna Above Hi! Marie. Hi." Yyyyyep. This was the place.

    It takes a few seconds for his mind to get back in order again. What was she saying? Right! She was flirting. Flirting. He could do that. Deep breath aaaand

    "That depends on the task at hand. But just going off what I know so far.... I think I'm prepared for the job." He strolls forward and leans against the other side of the doorframe, admiring her and waiting to come in.

    "Oh ho ho, Nate ya are still cute," she brushes his hair with how close he is, "Such a find gentleman I have here.

    Circe turns away from Nathaniel to walk inside with a hand wave for entry, "Come right in professor," the Fairest makes sure her hips are moving as she turns to walk away from him. "I'm sure I'll find out if yer the kind that Magna Cums Loudly," she teases him over her shoulder. Circe turns off the TV before just as a pink haired wolf girl is slamming herself against a book. The Italian beauty spins on a heel to look at Nathaniel. The Fairest bounces on her toes, "Oh and maybe we can test about that thing about the strongest muscle in the body too," she Nathaniel fingers guns.

    His hairs stand on end at the touch, but he doesn't dislike it. Followed by her almost unnatural powers of persuasion, a unique and attractive nature, and that outfit and... Well it was pretty clear who was leading who.

    "I Agree."

    Then the eyes. And the hips. And her calling him 'professor,' which for the occult-seeking academic set off several good vibes. More puns. The crescent tried to form a response to it, tried to gain a foothold.

    "I'm- er. That's." So much for being composed and ready for tonight.

    Father Below, how did she manage to be so seriously flirty and then so... So... Gah! More to the point, why did he like it so much? Ok- just. Deep breaths is all.

    "I'm looking forward to it- all of it." A returned finger gun. He took off the suit, leaving only the shirt underneath, moving to set it neatly on a chair- and his bag on the desk next to it.

    "Just in case ya need a break in between studies, I DID bring gadgets fer building shit. Ssssso," she bats her eyelashes at him, "I hope all work and no play hasn't made Nathaniel a dull boy."

    She could have some fun winding him up before having fun unwinding the mundy. Speaking of which, "And such luck it was a single double bed available! Science demands room to drive various angles fer research, riiiight?"

    Fade to black or keep with the flirting?

    And she was prepared for occult research afterwards. That was...

    "Amazing- er uh. No, not dull at all. Sharp as an arrow!" Another awkward fingergun. Belt off, put that on the desk too. Turning to her. Then the bed.

    Their bed. For things. Tonight was happening. "Right- research. All the angles..." he cleared his throat. "Shall we?" He seemed a bit nervous- this would be a novel experience. Well. Somewhat.

    But... He wanted this. And he was ready. "I've got some... Interesting theories we could test." Walking closer with every word, a surge of confidence at his dedication to this moment.

    Fade To Black sounds good

    Fade to black, fade in to next morning


    Sore morning, Nathaniel didn't disappoint. Hell she'd had to take a shot of juiced gob fruit to help. Circe HAD been tempted to wake up Nathaniel with the classic dress shirt only look, a siren's call attracted her instead. That of java beans.

    So instead she return to the room and possibly awaken Nathaniel with the scent of coffee, bacon, toast, sausages, and possibly bananas if he'd a good nose. And a Circe wearing a hot pants, sandals, and an amusing hoodie.

    The question now was would she be building a ghost camera or would other fine rise this morning? Circe perked up with a giggle as she thought that a good line.

    Pushing open the door despite two trays of food she sings out, "Wakey wakey, coffee and bacii."

    Luna Above and Father Below.... That had been intense. And amazing. That was about all Nathaniel could think regarding the whole experience. He was still shirtless when the scent of breakfast and Marie's morning serenade awoke him- and if he was groggy or sore in any way, he didn't show it.

    "Mmmm? Morning Marie. Looks delicious." He sat up and helped her set the trays down on the room's table, giving her a peck on the cheek and a hug. "And so does the food~" A night out and suddenly he was the peak of confidence.

    Nathaniel took his seat, grinning at his partner. "I had an amazing night." Breakfast first, ghost matters later.
