Jude in the Mocha, OTA and MW!
Jude was sitting at a table in the Mocha, flanked by his girls as always though they were invisible right at the moment. He was flipping through the New York Times, a slight furrow in his brow as he read over the stock sections.
He was still doing amazing. He supposed having the father that he did made for some allowances.

Sipping his coffee, he turned the page, thinking about nothing in particular and not really paying attention to anyone.

	Jude's brow lifted and he brought his cup of coffee to his mouth for a sip, remaining cool and calm. "Do I?" he asked, smiling a bit. "That makes one of us. You remind me of absolutely no one." He hadn't been out much since he'd been awake, and back in his time he'd never seen someone with such a color of hair. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh well there's no one else like me so that's just fine," Loki said and he looked at the girls again. Invisible to mortals but not him. He leaned forward on the table, folding his arms on it and getting closer to Jude, studying him and, perhaps, scenting the air around him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He nodded, then paused when the man leaned in. He didn't move to touch him though, so there was no need for caution. Instead he simply smiled.

"So was there something I could help you with? Or is it the person I remind you of that you're looking for?" he asked as he steepled his fingers on top of the paper before him. "Oh, and sorry. Jude Marcus," he said as he extended his hand.

	Loki took the hand and his eyes flashed and his smile grew. Touching was exactly what he'd needed. "Ahhhhh," he said, the colors in his eyes swirling and he shook Jude's hand and he chuckled. He'd know that energy anywhere. "Now I see. Jude. A pleasure. I'm Loki." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 01:34 am UTC (link)
	"Loki..." His brain shifted through the information his father had planted there and lightbulbs went off as he realized who the man in front of him was. "Ah, Loki," he said in recognition. "A pleasure." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_kel 2010-07-01 01:36 am UTC (link)
	Loki seemed pleased he was known and released Jude's hand and leaned back in his chair again. "Lovely girls, by the way," he said, and tilted his head again, "but aren't they a bit of - overkill?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 01:38 am UTC (link)
	He settled back into the chair with his coffee cup and gave a slight nod of thanks. "Thank you. They were put there by my father," he said. "He must be worried about something. Or someone. Anyway, no one can call them off but him." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Loki snorted softly. "I'd be insulted if I were you. I mean does he think you can't take care of yourself? What are you a child?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 01:43 am UTC (link)
	Jude smiled softly. "I can more than take care of myself," he assured the other man. "But I'm not stupid enough to question my father about anything." The one question he'd asked his father a few weeks ago had left him in more torture than he'd ever been in. He wouldn't be doing that again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Loki rolled his eyes. "It's what children do. Rebel against their fathers. He did too after all. And got a whole underworld to rule for it." One of them anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 01:53 am UTC (link)
	"So he did," Jude said with a nod. "But it's wise to not do such things until you're in a position to win, don't you think?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_kel 2010-07-01 01:59 am UTC (link)
	"Yes but never hurts to test the limits from time to time either," Loki replied with a grin. "So, Jude. If you don't rebel against daddy what do you do for fun?" He had the distinct look of someone that didn't get out much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 02:02 am UTC (link)
	"Ah," he cleared his throat. What he'd been doing for fun lately it probably wasn't safe to admit, even to this fellow, in this environment. "I haven't quite had the time to rediscover fun," he admitted witha rueful laugh. "Although I'm sure you've got some suggestions?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_kel 2010-07-01 02:12 am UTC (link)
	"Rediscover? Well now you are interesting." He smiled - a wicked smile that promised lots of things. Most probably not legal. "I can think of several things to do for fun, Jude. The question is which would appeal to you." He looked him over closely and tapped a black tipped finger against his lips thoughtfully. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 02:15 am UTC (link)
	He splayed his hands out, thinking he'd probably regret this eventually. "Why don't you start bouncing some ideas off of me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_kel 2010-07-01 02:23 am UTC (link)
	"Well there's the clubs of course," he said. "The more tame ones like the Rainbow. Then you've got the more high class ones were you must go to be seen like Sanctuary. Owner lives here. There's the fetish clubs and then there's Babylon and The Cellar. I like those." He grinned. "Much - rougher." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Is that where you're going tonight?" he asked with a nod to Loki's clothes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_kel 2010-07-01 02:32 am UTC (link)
	"Cellar, yes." He looked down at his clothes. "Though I tend to dress like this anyway." He grinned. "The Goth movement amuses me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 02:35 am UTC (link)
	"I'm afraid it's a bit lost on me," he said as he took in the clothes. "I've never - seen anything quite like it before." At least not for himself, outside of his father's implanted memories. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Oh well you should. It can be fun. Boys and girls all done up in clothes that have been out of style for centuries, pretending to be vampires half the time." He chuckled. "They'd shit themselves if they ever met a real one. But they are more than willing to believe you're a bit different, a bit off, and if you're a bit dangerous all the better. They make it so easy."

	Jude laughed a bit, eyes going darker and resembling his father's even more as his mind lit up with all sorts of imaginings. "It is much better when they make it easy, isn't it?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_kel 2010-07-01 02:46 am UTC (link)
	"Oh it can be," Loki said, voice dropping a bit and something powerful and dark hovering around him if one knew to look. "At least to start things off. But it's much more satisfying when they figure out just how much danger they're in." Fear made it so much sweeter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 02:50 am UTC (link)
	Jude smiled a bit, fingers rasping over his chin. "We could work something out," he said decisively. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_kel 2010-07-01 02:56 am UTC (link)
	Loki smiled. Vision would probably hate him messing with Jude. All the more reason to do so. "Good. Got a pen handy? I'll give you my number." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_j 2010-07-01 02:58 am UTC (link)
	Jude reached into his pocket and produced an elegant mont blanc pen, then slid it over to Loki along with his napkin. "Do. Please." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mm_kel 2010-07-01 03:11 pm UTC (link)
	Loki jotted down the number of the cell phone he'd begun keeping handy and passed both pen and napkin back. "My schedule's flexible," Loki said as he stood. "Call me when you're free." He looked at the two girls with Jude and smiled wickedly. "I might even have some fun for your ladies." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Jude didn't know what his girls did for fun outside of hunt and kill. He never saw they express any sort of emotion, aside from when they were in their visible human form and it was appropriate.

He smiled. If that meant Loki had a way to feed them, he wasn't going to argue.

"Sounds lovely. I'm sure they'll appreciate that," Jude said as he folded the number and stuck it in his breast pocket.

	Loki looked him over one more time and smiled wickedly. "I do look forward to your call," he said. "But until then - I have some fun of my own to attend to. See you soon, Jude." (Reply to this) (Parent)
