Libby
Libby had been sleeping on herself outside when the crack and subsequent scream woke her up. What was he doing? Immediately, she stood and fumbled with the key in the lock till it gave. She wished that it had not. An audible groan escaped her and she forced herself into the dorm, closing the door and taking in the sight before her: Angel, a bare beauty and Seth, her dripping wet beast. She was tired and now, completely annoyed. Angel's eyes widened at the sight of her and then, narrowed.
"Get out," the demon said calmly, not even bothering with Seth at the moment. When the female human shook her head, Libby sighed and took up what she deemed to be the slut's clothes while picking her off the bed. With Angel over her shoulder, she opened the door again and laid her out in the corridor, clad in the sheets. "And stay out."
This brought her to Seth. "I don't want to talk to you." The demon threw herself on the empty bed, her face turned away from him.

Vassili
Vassili stepped out of the shower ten minutes later and started drying off. When he saw that she was asleep he dressed again, laying out clean clothing for her and then left quietly. He was a phantom as he broke into a club, guards didn't see him and when the finally stepped into an office were four men stood. They pulled pistols out and then began to cower in fear.
"I am the one who mutilated your man at the warehouse, do you really think you can kill me when they failed to do so." All four me shook there heads.
"Good, listen and you will have vengeance. Here are the blueprints, guard rotations and munition inventory of your rival, the man who ordered me to kill. Do what you will, but bring that man to me at this location." They nodded again.
"Fail and I'll kill you all." They scoffed and all four guns were sliced in half, Vassili apparently not moving. He was gone while they looked at the weapons in shock.

Vincent
Vincent chuckled lightly. Yes she was definitely enamored with him and he wasn't stopping it like he should. His hand was now closer to her breast drawing very small circles there.
"I'll take both of you how bout that. We'll go see the world and enjoy life." He laughed lightly. They would be amazed by the ship he could raise, and then crew using his allies.
"It'll be an adventure. When your a psychologist you tend to ear quite a bit of money." He so wanted to take her then and there, but she needed to make the first move, he was bond by Aimee's orders to just don't. ******** Jewel.

Seth
"Good didn't want to talk to you anyways. Your filthy, take a shower and change into clean clothes." He dressed slowly, not really caring if she saw him nude anymore, their friendship was cold.
"Piece of metal on the tarmac made my back tire unstable. That's what caused the bike to buck. I don't have preternatural strength like you do. Thanks for keeping me alive, even if you are bound to do it against your will." He finished and walked out of the room. Stopping in the doorway.
"I'll be at the shop if you need me, I'll try to stay safe." He left her there, again he didn't want to, but she had said it wouldn't work and if she didn't want to or couldn't then he wasn't going to try. He would have to apologize to Angel, though she probably would start looking for another virgin to break.

Libby
Libby smiled faintly at his remarks and even the expressed gratitude. She waited for him to leave before sitting up on the bed and staring at the ceiling. He would try to stay safe. Who was he trying to fool? However, her body ached for reasons that should never be revealed and her spirit felt like it was broken, tired. She ripped off her garments and headed for the shower. It felt like hours before she emerged and got dressed again. She did not need him, per se. Unfortunately, he was her responsibility and that meant no extended periods alone, unless it cannot be helped - like last night. She could not have had him there. The demon donned her stringed key and locked the place before leaving through the front.
She was happy that Seth had thanked her. That took care of one of the things that she was angry about efficiently. For everything else, she would have to hope that he wanted Raithsburne fixed and did not blame her for the current damage. She had to hope because she, sure as hell, blamed herself for it. Almost an hour later, she was at the shop. In the same fashion as earlier, she hopped up to Van's abode and hid, waiting for everyone else to arrive.

Aimee
Lilly smiled. She decided to try out some of the new (or rather, old) she'd been reading about on Vincent, to see just how read up he was. In her and Aimee's English Composition class, they were playing around with the slang from the "Roaring Twenties." It was a time of sheer hedonism in the States; Lilly was of course in love with the idea, if not the actuality.
"And how! I think that'd just be the cat's pajamas, snugglepup."
She knew that she should've moved Vincent's hand, knew that she shouldn't encourage him by her own apathetic movements. But somehow, she couldn't quite bring herself to do it. Instead, Lilly snuggled closer towards his slightly warmer body.
"You're a psychologist? Does Aimee know? She doesn't much like the stitches. Doctors, I mean. She had a bad run with one of them, once. It kind of turned her off of them, for pretty much life. The quack misjudged her, thought she was a biscuit, and wanted to try the old barney-muggin on her when she was all loopy-loo after her operation."
She thought she should mention the fact that it had been her who'd shot Aimee (accidentally, of course) and thus caused her to get the surgery. For some strange reason, she couldn't get her mouth to form the words. Lilly cleared her throat and continued on.
"Anyway, if you ask her about her 'appendix' scar, she'll sort of blush and stammer and mutter something about her appendix. Just don't press her for details, or she'll just shut down and stay that way for days at a time."

Colette
Colette sighed gently. She stood back up.
"In my day, the buffet's were different. Not so much walking."
The demon followed Candy towards the scents that promised food. Colette grabbed two plates and loaded them both up to the brim with a variety of noodles, sauces and rice. She found a fork and returned to their table in the corner; their drinks were already there. She smiled.

 XXXC A N D YxLynnxH O P P E R
-----------------»I got birds in my ears, And a devil on my shoulder
-------------» And a phone to the other, And I can't get a hold of her
-----------------» And what's a crush to do? And what's a crush to do when he can't get through?
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
She skipped beside the girl, a rather large smirk on her mouth. "You have to work off all the added carbs. Walking helps do that." She said, glancing over as she got a plate and filled it as much as she could. She picked lightly at a piece of chicken that threatened to fall off her plate and popped it into her mouth as she sat down across from Colette.
She tucked into her meal, slurping some chow mein in silence before speaking. "Do you prefer food of now or food of your day?" She asked as she ate.

Seth
Seth and the guys pounded up to the flat over the shop after another hour of work. The St. Claire was layed out, well at least the frame, and the Raithsburne was there to, parts already ordered, Van not waiting and Seth saying he wanted her back as well. Van had said something about an anonymous donation. The first thing Seth saw was Libby and his face lit up briefly before going back to morose, Van's also lighting up as everyone said hey.

Colette
"I don't exactly have the same metabolism system as you humans. I can't actually get fat; I burn the energy too quickly. Just maintaining my glamour is draining."
Colette nipped at her noodle and rice mixture. She had easily three times the amount of food on her plates, as compared to Candy, and of a much greater variety. The demon had been gone from the world, for far too long in her opinion; it was time to see just how much it had changed. Colette sat in moody silence for a time, chewing on her food contemplatively. She finally realized that Candy had been waiting for an answer. Oh wait, she asked a question...
"It all depends on which day you're speaking of. It's better than some, much worse then others. All in all? Alright, I suppose. Food is food, though, in my book. It is there to sustain me, to keep me moving."

Vincent
Vincent laughed lowly as she switched her wording to the a time he remembered clearly. Fitzgerald had him for two years, right when he wrote the Great Gatsby. Fitzgerald hadn't died, but had sealed Vincent back in the jewel for the remainder of his life. It was very bad time.
"I like your enthusiasm for talking like it is the roaring twenties, but don't expect me to do the same. Not my bag doll." As she burrowed into his side, his hand reached farther around and played light lines across her stomach now.
"I'm not a doctor, I just got a masters, I study the human psyche and sell what I learn. That's how I make a living. Its easy to, you sell your first findings about your own mind and then use the money to interview people, selling those." Lilly was not telling the whole truth about this appendix thing, Vincent would have to ask Aimee. It was late, the sky pitch black the artificial light blocking the stars. Only the moon shone clearly, and smog tried to stop even that. Luna, why'd you have to sacrifice yourself for these pathetic beings.
"Its late Lils, let's get you home and see how far Aimee has gotten on that story."
((Probably won't po or two hours, seeing as y laptop is my DVD player and I want to watch Kit.))

Aimee
Lilly's face brightened.
"You know what I'm saying? Not many recognize the time period, let alone what I'm spewing. It's a tragic flaw in the folks of nowadays."
Her voice dropped it's silly little tone and hardened into a protective Mother-bear tone.
"It's all you stitch types, now. Doesn't matter what the specifics are, the generics are enough to spook Aimee."
Lilly sighed but stood when Vincent prompted her too, taking his hand again.
"Knowing her, she's got the whole damned thing perfect, except in her mind it won't be."
They strolled back to the dorm slowly; when they got there, Lilly unlocked the door and pushed through first. Inside, Aimee was still pacing restlessly. She'd switched out her fags for a pen and was chewing on the end mindlessly. Aimee paused, and turned back towards the door, hearing Lilly and Vincent; she blinked in surprise at them.
"Back so soon? Is it raining?"
"We've been gone for three hours, Aimee; check the clock."
"...Oh...sorry...I just loose track of time when I think..."
Aimee trailed off, looking at Vincent almost helplessly.
"...Well, that's my cue to skedaddle. Night you two!"
Lilly gave them both a chaste kiss on the cheek before skipping off happily to her room.
"How was...how was the walk?"

Libby
Libby had been sure that no one could see her once they came upstairs but that was not so. She stood gingerly and looked over the railings, down at the two bikes. He was going to have Raithsburne fixed. They had already started. This was a good thing. As the guys headed for inside, the demon pulled Seth back. She did not have to glare at the others in order for them to know it was a private discussion.
"Can I talk to you for a second, please?" It felt weird saying that considering that it was only few hours earlier that she had stated the exact opposite. "I wanted to apologize about what happened on the track last night. I should have tried to save both of you. There must have been enough time. Couldn't that be true? It's my fault that Raithsburne is even down there now, needing to be doctored." Her tone was calm and too indifferent that one would just know that it was a difficult thing for her to accept.
[This is assuming that yes, they did see her. It sounded like that.]

Vincent
Vincent looked over at Aimee with a grin. He padded over and draped his arms over her kissing her forehead.
"That one is a real keeper. Crazy, imaginative and fun. It appears that you have had little luck in finishing that story, unless you just happen to try and smoke a whole carton of cigarettes for the fun of it?" Vincent sat down and relaxed waving his hand to try and clear a little of the smoke, he exerted force on the moisture in the air and drew all the smoke together inside a ball of water and tossed it into the sink.
"Glad I can still do that. Anyhow would you like any help, an insight from earlier generations?"

Seth
Seth listened to her, and it seemed she had hurt inside from her failure to keep him safe, or at least keep his emotions safe. His hand reached out and grabbed her hand pulling her close to him, even if the guys knew it was a private discussion, they were prying there heads peaking out from the kitchen. He pushed her into the shadows and there was an audible sigh from the kitchen and then the sound of a microwave.
"Its not your fault its my fault. I shouldn't have been showboating. It was fun though, and well I meant to do this last night before we left." He kissed her quickly a kiss that was chaste and yet somehow not before she could respond he was gone in the kitchen joking around with the guys.
