A Bit of Shopping

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:35 pm

The man glances over at Madison without moving his head.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:37 pm

"Mad? Friend of yours?"

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:38 pm

"No friends here," Madison says, "...Present company excluded."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:51 pm

Jayda's eyes glanced around the room, taking in the eyes weighing her, would mercy have her found wanting to them? She honestly didn't know and in the end she didn't care.

Looking to Madison again she whispered softly in her attackers ear before pulling the blade across his throat hard enough to draw blood and pushed his falling form into a shadow portal before picking up her ale again and taking a mouthful.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:55 pm

Madison nods at Jayda, "Hard-core."

Stan wordlessly sets another ale in front of Jayda as the patrons grow bored with the scene and return to their business.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:57 pm

Jayda shrugged, either way she had figured that she wouldn't quite measure up, not knowing what Madison ever really expected of her.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:02 pm

"Relax," Madison says, "He's tougher to kill then that. You did good. They'll eat you alive if they think you're weak here."

"Stan here's the friendliest guy in the joint," Madison says prompting an embarrassed smile from the bartender, "And even he'd slip you a mickey and put you on the menu if he thought he could get away with it."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:05 pm

"I didn't kill him, I cut him bad but not deep enough to severe anything. That and he might find himself on top of the tower of London." The ale she drank this time tasted a hell of a lot better than the last one and she gave Stan a lopsided grin.

"Never mind Stan, I'm sure I'd mess up your pretty face just as soon if you pissed me off."

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:11 pm

Madison laughs, "That's the spirit."

Madison finishes her beer, slamming it on the table. It's immediately replaced by a fresh one and a shot of whiskey.

"So, let's see those tattoos," Madison says, "They can't be any uglier then Stan's, y'know?"

Stan rolls his eyes and walks off to attend other customers.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:18 pm

Jayda slipped her jacket over her shoulders and put it on the bar, swiftly lifting her tank top over her head so she is left in her underwear and jeans. She unbuttons the top of them and pushes them over her hips with a grin.

"Two on the arm, one in the middle of my back, one on my hip and the other.. well if you ask nicely I might show you."

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:21 pm

None of the patrons seemed to have much more then a passing interest in Jayda's improptu strip show. Madison looked at the tattoos, running her hand over the one on her forearm.

"Neat," Madison says with a happy grin, "Though now you've got me curious where the other one is."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:24 pm

Jayda pointed to each as she listed them off.

"Seppuku, patricide, sacrifice, this ones Con's - a little harder to explain, the other.. " Jayda laughed.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:32 pm

Madison lifts up her shirt, there's a tattoo of a bullseye right over her heart with two small scars strafing it.

"This is my only tattoo. Got it after getting shot in Milan," Madison says.

"Hey!" Stan shouts from a little ways away, "If you two are going to compare tits, go to a booth. Last thing I need is one of these punks making a move and ending up dead on my floor, comprende'?"

Madison rolls her eyes and flips Stan off.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:41 pm

"You copped a bullet to the heart and you survived how?" Jayda asked curiously ignoring Stan.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:45 pm

Madison pulls her shirt back down, "Two shots. And I was damn lucky, that's all."

Madison finishes off her second beer and takes the shot of whiskey quickly.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:49 pm

"How long did it lay you out for?" Jayda pulled her jeans back up and buttoned them, tugging her tank back down over her head.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:50 pm

"A week," Madison says, "I had a very good doctor."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:02 pm

"That's not a good Doctor, that's a miracle worker." Jayda's voice was tinged with disbelief though underscoring that was the fact this was Madison West and she could believe anything of the woman. She looked at Madi with admiring eyes.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:05 pm

"True that," Madison says, cutting off the subject at it's knees, "So whatcha want to do now? Your choice."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:23 pm

"My choice, eh? That's a bit of pressure right there." Jayda paused for a moment considering.

"Got it, coming?" Jayda puts her hand out for Madison's with a grin.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:25 pm

"Sure thing," Madison says, grabbing hold of Jayda's hand, "Don't bother with the tab. It's tradition not to pay."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:39 pm

"Figured it was your shout anyway." Jayda tugged Madison's hand and they were standing on a busy street corner, people hustling and bustling by going about their business.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:41 pm

Madison stands behind Jayda, ready to follow the girl to wherever they happen to be going.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:47 pm

Jayda approaches a small red and yellow cart beside which stands a greasy little man with a big handle bar moustache. His beady eyes light up as they draw near and in a thick accent he greets them.

"If it isn't little Jayda! Not so little now I see, all grown up, she is! Ahh, did you travel so far to see Papa Gee?"

Jayda shoves her hand in her pocket and with a grin scoops out a handful of change into his palm.

"A nice big fat slice for the Ladies, Mama!"

An equally greasy and hugely rotund woman steps out from behind the cart with two slices of pizza in napkins, the grease dripping down her hands and arms to hit the ground. Jayda thanks her and accepts a slice handing the other to Madison.

"Best Pizza I ever tasted, money back guarantee." She grins at Madison with a wink to the little man.

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:48 pm

Madison takes a bite, chewing thoughtfully and nodding, "That is damn good. Nice choice."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:52 pm

"Its a universal rule. Follow alcohol with a greasy something.. I just prefer pizza."

by **Madison West** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:59 pm

"Me too," Madison says, "Guess we got a lot in common, huh?"

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:03 am

"Could be worse, you could have a lot in common with Bear." Jayda grinned, as much as she liked Bear she couldn't reconcile Madison with being a hugger.

" 'sides that means I am awesome too and I'm not going to complain about that."

by **Madison West** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:06 am

"'Course your awesome," Madison says, "I wouldn't hang out with you if you weren't, duh."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:09 am

"Apart from that whole school assigned mentor thing?" Jayda laughed.

by **Madison West** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:11 am

"I'm supposed to still be doing that?" Madison says, looking sincerely surprised, "Hell and dalmations. I completely forgot."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:16 am

"I can totally see why Dalmatians would be associated with Hell, have you ever heard one bark? They are the most annoying sounding creatures in the freaking world..." Jayda took a bite of her slice and considered this a moment then shrugged.

"Are Professors allowed to hang out with students?"

by **Madison West** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:22 am

Madison shrugs, "Don't know, don't care. Minute they start thinking they can tell me what to do outside of a professional capacity, I'm out. Made that clear when I joined up."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:26 am

"So outside of school hours we can do whatever we want?" Jayda raised an eyebrow.

by **Madison West** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:28 am

"Sure," Madison says, taking another bite of delicious pizza.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:31 am

"I'll keep that in mind. I'm pretty sure we can come up with a few things to entertain ourselves."

by **Madison West** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:33 am

"Absolutely," Madison says cheerfully, "Remind me to give you my number when we get back."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:42 am

"Do you live on campus or off?"

by **Madison West** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:43 am

"Off campus," Madison says, "I like my own space."

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:48 am

"Show me?"
