[video/action] 253 - & devil's compass mingle
[The Devil's Compass is no longer littered with candles, save perhaps a few on the bar that add a little something to the dim lighting that recreates the old-world style of tavern the place is modeled after. It's actually quite clean otherwise, with Tyki lounging in one of the booths with a bent knee up on the seat and the camera looking at him sitting there with a cigarette drooping out of the corner of his mouth.]

If you haven't been to the Devil's Compass yet for the drink or my company, I'll give you two further incentives.

[Sidelong he reaches to crush out the cigarette, a plume of smoke coiling upward.]

One, there's fresh pie thanks to the lovely Charlotte.

[His eyes flick up to the camera with a dangerous glint while his lips curl.] Second, this week we've also got a barmaid. She doesn't bite but she might scratch.

[And so Tyki's bar is open as always but with a mingle! And for the next week Kitty Pryde (the elder) will be roped into being the Compass' barmaid due to a bet gone wrong. Tyki will be exceptionally cheerful about this, more often behind the bar than usual (which in itself is fairly often) at least while she's on the job. This means he'll be rather friendly and talkative. Best time to meet him, really. He'll have a thread right here.]

	I suppose it's not a secret. This is a better place for me. I do hope I get to stay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They haven't lost you yet. [ Unlike so many others. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Twice actually, but I'm here now and hopefully to stay. I have no memories of my first time here. I was just told about it. [Something he can probably relate to.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He can and he has and that's a topic we're not discussing. ] So you really don't have anyone to get back to? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-02-12 03:43 pm UTC (link)
	It's not that. I would love to see my family again. [A little softer.] I miss them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2014-02-13 08:20 pm UTC (link)
	Then why are you so keen on staying in this dump? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-02-15 03:08 am UTC (link)
	It's...the only place I can be. There's nothing left to go back to. [Nothing but having her brother shoot her and seeing Suzaku cry over her as everything goes dark.] This is my second chance. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2014-02-15 10:06 am UTC (link)
	Ooh. [ Dead. ] That's a pity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-02-16 06:23 am UTC (link)
	It is sad to know I won't return, but I'm happy to be in this place. [Doesn't she look happy? SOOOOO happy for a sad girl.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2014-02-16 10:11 am UTC (link)
	[ Oh yeah she's practically doing cartwheels. ] C'mon, don't do that. Don't pretend you're all happy and blissful when you look like something the cat dragged in and then shat on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She looks down for a moment before meeting his eyes.] I am, usually. It's just that my brother has disappeared again. I'm the last one from my home world and the last of my roommates have gone too. I suppose I'm not very good at being on my own. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2014-02-17 03:19 pm UTC (link)
	Like a girl like you is ever on her own. Don't you have a swarm of suitors, battling it out for your attention? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-02-17 05:22 pm UTC (link)
	[She smiles softly.] I'm sure I don't. There were two here in the past who might have... Well, but they're gone now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2014-02-18 05:19 pm UTC (link)
	So you... do that welcoming basket thing and you organize the school board or whatever it is you lot are up to in there... bet there's something else too that just reeks of normal, cheerful, girl scout socialization. And yet you're lonelier than a cloud. Did I get that right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She gives him a thoughtful look before letting her eyes trail down to the bar.] It can feel that way. [This is where she should be giving him all the disclaimers about how it is a wonderful place with wonderful, accepting people and how no one but herself is to blame for it, but instead she looks back at him.] You're a very insightful person.

	[ He gives her a look, somewhat self-satisfied. It's always a good feeling, when you manage to hit the mark. ] Not much else to do around here, is there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-02-24 04:41 am UTC (link)
	Than be insightful? I'm not certain it works that way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You call this prying? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Quirks a brow. ] You want me to do better? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I just mean you seem more helpful than intrusive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
