The finger shifted itself very subtly and very invisibly and hit the button nearest to it. Fyrin didn't check which button; his finger was busily watching the vampire for signs of suspicion, since this was very clearly incriminating.

The vampire was pressing the number pad on the computer. He appeared to be paying no attention.
Fyrin hit the close door button. The doors closed without the vampire looking up.

Joe couldn't help laughing aloud, nudging Jacob. "These are the people we'll be working with for the rest of our lives," he said. "Well, not them specifically. But you get it."
He went to the fridge and stood about four feet away, leaning on a wall. "Got anything to drink? I'm feeling pretty dry." Their waiting cabby had left by now.

Rose pulled out two bottles by their necks. One was vodka, the other sparkling cider. "I cater to all tastes," she answered with a laugh, pulling out a gallon jug of nonfat milk with her other hand. "And don't criticize our systems. We haven't been caught yet." She gave a lopsided grin as she set the drinks she'd taken from the mini-fridge on a low table. Without looking, she pulled three glasses from a cabinet.

Joe made himself comfortable with a sparkling vodka. "What about him?" Joe said, tossing his head at the man who had already been in there. "Is he...ya know."

((A what? Sparkling vodka? Did you just mix the cider and the vodka or something?))
"Demon Hunter," the man replied. "Cyrus. Pleasure to meet you." He mimed tipping a hat.

((Pretty much. I'm not much of a drinker, so I made one up.))
Joe nodded, smiling a bit. "Ahh. Very cool. I just recently met a Demon Hunter myself. His name's Marco...Leo-something. Liotelli? I don't recall. Ring a bell?" Joe looked at Cyrus inquisitively as he sipped his drink.

Cyrus shrugged, pouring himself the milk. "Need strong bones in this line of work," he joked, downing half the glass at once and leaving a little milk on his face. "We're pretty decentralized, though. We operate in independent cells, more often than not, with occasional direction or requests from the higher-ups. I still haven't come across some of the trainees I started with since then."

Joe nodded. "Yeah, I figured. That's the impression that I got from Marco and his team, anyways. He's back at the Hunter Dome, or whatever it's called. Marco seemed a bit more like he was taking orders directly from your higher-ups though."
He shrugged. "I won't pretend to know though, I barely know him. We fought together a couple of time. But tell me about yourselves."

Cyrus shrugged. "He might've gotten his cell sent on a hit or something. Anyway, I'm Cyrus. I'm a Demon Hunter. My favored attack style uses a Cerberoid - hellhound type - channel. Rose?" Rose raised an eyebrow at him. "Rose LeBlanc, Healer-Kineticist Thaumaturge. Spying on Tyrg. Not much else to say, there."

Joe nodded a bit. "Joe Simpson, evoker. I'm heavy on Elementalism, but I know a bit of healing as well. I've, ahh, been in contact with the Djinni and...well, I'm like....I don't know how to say it. Never mind. Jacob?"
He turned to his friend to introduce himself.

"I don't know how you stand those crazy Djinni bastards," Cyrus interjected. He pulled his shirt up a little, showing a huge burn scar covering most of his left torso. "Got this s**t in Gaza, running a recon on the Sage-Djinni battles. A Djinn spotted me and got me before I could escape."

Joe shrugged one shoulder. "well hey, I have nothing against them. They've only ever helped me, and believe you me, when I say help, I mean help."
He smiled. "Hell, if you could get them on your side, you wouldn't have to worry about that stuff. What do you think?"

Cyrus leaned back against the wall, crossing his legs on top of the couch arm he sat on. "Nobody allies their whole group with the Djinni or Sages. It's an unwritten rule. If they joined up and the Council lined up their sides behind the Djinni and the Sages, a war unlike any the world has ever seen would ensue."
