Well, look at that: not only did I land on my feet, but I found five bucks in my back pocket, too.

I feel like Daltry after he an' the band played Leeds: fan-TAS-tic.

	S'lookin' like your lucky day, honey. I take it that makes you new? Welcome to the madhouse. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Definitely lucky to see such a pretty face first thing off. Thanks for the welcome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ain't you a charmer? Let's start with the basics. I'm Angel. And you are? Also, [website]. Yes, it's bizarre. No, it doesn't seem possible. But yes, it's true. If you need alcohol to digest that, I do happen to own a ballroom, here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Angel. Now, I'm pretty sure there's a suave line in here somewhere. I trust you'll be able to find it and not hold it against me. I'm Jack. Hey, I've seen stranger things. I might just take you up on the alcohol, though. 'Have to leave the ballroom dancing behind. I'm all left feet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We'll save ourselves the trouble and say I'm flattered for the effort, how's that? Considering you just feel from the sky, I can make an exception or two. Mm, not that kinda ballroom, honey. How bout I let you pick the bar, maybe get a bite to eat? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jackodiamonds 2008-02-28 03:10 am UTC (link)
	Well, I'm much obliged. You're class, Angel. Pure class. And I can spread that five dollars two ways. Nothing but the finest fare for such a friendly face. How about the Penny Pint? I can see the sign from where I'm standing. It might not be the Ritz, but I bet it serves drinks out of big glasses. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	An' where's that, sugar? Sorry, I ain't quite acquainted with this version of the city, yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not bad for dropping in out of nowhere, right? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	jackodiamonds 2008-02-28 01:40 pm UTC (link)
	Before this, I was in upstate New York. People up there are too uptight. 'Like this much better. Where'd you drop in from? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bella_swann 2008-02-28 03:07 pm UTC (link)
	A place called Forks. It's small, I wouldn't be surprised if you hadn't heard of it. New York? Other than uptight, what was that like? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cold in the Winter, hot in the Summer. Full of mutants. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mother Nature's gifted few. There's a whole school of them up in Westchester County. What, you've never met anyone strange before? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bella_swann 2008-02-28 05:02 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, no, plenty of strange. Vampires and werewolves, to be more specific. But I've never met a mutant before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jackodiamonds 2008-02-28 05:19 pm UTC (link)
	And how does a pretty thing like you come to be mixed up with vampires and werewolves? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bella_swann 2008-02-28 05:22 pm UTC (link)
	It just happened that way. I still have a hard time believing it myself, sometimes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jackodiamonds 2008-02-28 06:09 pm UTC (link)
	I've come to believe that nothing -- vampires, werewolves, mutants, finding one last cigarette at the bottom of a pack you though you'd finished -- is out of the realm of possibility. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's short for Isabella, but I don't know. They never said. Looking at the circumstances now, I guess it's pretty ironic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
