Gumbodacious
Who: Shae/Raven (in_the_wings) and Nina/Isis (forget_me_knot)
What: Nina is very obliging and does her best to keep her word.
Where: #907
When: November 16th, early evening.
Warnings: An astonishing lack of common sense on Nina's part.

It'd taken Nina a solid twenty minutes to psyche herself up. She didn't want to meet anyone who always carried a gun, that sounded scary. On the other hand, if she refused his invitation, she didn't want to be on his bad side either. So after consulting the internet and whomever was on AIM, she decided that Shae always carried a gun because he was from someplace like Wyoming, or Montana, where everyone has a gun. Maybe even Texas. That would explain why he used the library computers too! They probably weren't as common out there.

She stood in front of the door, tupperware held in both hands like an offering, carefully going through a few yoga breathing exercises. After she came to terms with the idea that running away now would be so cowardly that she would hate herself for weeks to come, she quietly knocked on the door.

"Th-thanks," Nina opened the package and nibbled on one, trying not to get crumbs everywhere, while she added the other to the gumbo. After a long moment, she started to giggle, covering her mouth in order not to snort out crumbs. A few more gulps of beer solved the latter problem but not the former.

"I must look like--" she sniggered, almost saying 'damn fool,' Shae's accent was rubbing off on her, "like a complete fool."

Mon Dieu, he was so relieved to hear the sound of that giggle. At least now he could laugh out loud without feeling like a total jackass.

"Ain' seen anybody put up dat much'a faght wit' da gumbo in a long tahm, ma cher," he managed as he threw back the longneck for another drink. "But I' t'ink you jes' won."

He paused with the bottle raised halfway to his lips, then gestured to it with his free hand as he glanced over at her and batted his eyelashes in a show of horribly phony innocence. "Mebbe I oughta jes' spill da beeuh all ovah me- den we BOT' look lahk damn fools." Oooh, she'd definitely read that accent right.

	(( SORRY I have been just... not writing for a while. XD; )) "You better not!" she chastised with another small laugh, "Beer is so hard to get out of upholstery, you know." (Reply to this) (Parent)
