Who: Henn Turner & Thomas Raith
Where: Coffee shop in NY
When: Thursday afternoon
What: Crazy random happenstance!
Warnings: Possible, but surprisingly unlikely

Henn was making her final list for party decorations, things had settled a little at home, and at the Guildhall, so she was using New York as a stopover between New Orleans and London.
What this really meant was that once she'd finished her window-shopping she'd gone to get horribly overpriced teadrink and bask in the fall-weather crowd at the two-tier Starbucks not too far from the Halloween shop she'd been at.

She was in the upstairs, sitting in a window corner and finalizing her lists and plans, sipping at her chai and occasionally nibbling at the thick slice of gingerbread on her plate. She liked the upstairs because she could still get the contact buzz from the people downstairs without actually being bothered, there were a couple of med students taking up one of the mostly-comfy couches on the other side of the room, cramming for a test, but besides the upstairs barista the place was empty.

"Bartending would probably be just as effective." Maybe not as immediate. Being a hairdresser, he had hands on his clients. There was a fine line, and he had to be careful not to cross it, every time like it was the first time.

"Not sure standing in a courtroom would have the same appeal." Thomas didn't have a high opinion of those who made and enforced laws, to begin with. Too many of them were power hungry.

She nodded, "A lot of people don't get it, especially given my family businesses, but I'm not really good at either of those, directly, so I figured I'd help in the way I was best at."

The crooked smile was back, "You might be surprised at how many cases I've helped win just by wearing the right blazer and stockings with seams up the backs." Then again, he might not, all things considered.

	"Hey, whatever works, right?" Thomas gulped down what was left of his coffee. he didn't care for it once it cooled, and made a point not to let it get to that point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Something like that." She said, smile spreading, "Personally I just go for whatever's the most entertaining at the time." This was more or less true. She always figured it came from being the child of thieves and more thieves. (Reply to this) (Parent)
