the gate of the junkyard and gets out. He glances around with a bit of paranoia and begins walking toward the entrance. He is wearing clean but worn slacks, button up shirt rolled up to the elbows, a pair of muddied boots*

(Bad copy and paste... "He pulls up to the gate in his pickup truck and gets out")

The information that Dante was given directed him to go to a salvage yard on the outskirts of the town. Upon entering the salvage depot, Dante sees several old cars being sliced up with a giant saw, a huge magnet lifting the pieces and dropping them off on a conveyer belt. The office is off to the right, and seems to be somewhat out of place, with the pristine flowerbed growing in the dirt under the windows, roses already in full bloom, with bees buzzing happily from bud to bud. Hummingbirds flit from feeder to feeder before zipping away, their chest flashing with blood red rubies as they disappear. A gaunt looking man, scruffy and wearing clothes that seem to be about two sizes too big for him, is tending the flower bed. (( http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lky92oHzqn1qata1r.jpg ))

*Dante approaches the man* 'Scuse me. *pauses and scratches head* You work here? *pauses* I've got an appointment.

Colin (Jun 30, 2011 3:41:55 AM)
"Are ye here ta talk with Victor, then?" The man speaks with a very heavy Irish accent, not bothering to look up from his flowers. "He said ta expect someone." Looking over Dante, he finishes watering the plants and jerks his head towards the interior of the building. "C'mon then."
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 3:43:07 AM)
*Follows the man towards the entrance, his palms sweating a bit, Dante glances towards the flowers as he passes them* Alright.
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 3:45:59 AM)
In stark contrast to the seemingly chaotic mess outside, the inside of the office was neat as only a school marm could make it. More flowers bloomed in pots hanging from the ceiling, but nothing was over-done. The main part of the office seemed to have a fairly obvious feminine touch, but with no woman in sight. The man pauses long enough to dutifully wipe his dusty feet on the rug inside the door, then heads deeper into the building, to a back office that was just as neat, albeit with more masculine colors. Sitting down at the desk, he gestures towards the empty seat across from him. "What d'they call ye, then?"
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 3:49:01 AM)
*chuckles nervously* I've been called a dastardly bastard, but I'd prefer to go by Dante. *glances around room* Nice place... looks sturdy *locks eyes with the guy* Are the walls thick?
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 3:50:30 AM)
(I wanna activate supernatural awareness)
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 3:51:57 AM)
He looks over at them, then back at Dante, a brow quirked. "If ye are worried 'boot people hearin' us, dinna fret. The machinery outside will keep most ears oot, and anyone else stew-pid enough to try will have our mutual friend to deal with." Leaning over, he pulls out a pitcher from the mini fridge, then plucks two plastic cups from a stack on top, pouring the liquid in and nudging one over in Dante's direction. "S'tea, if yer worried." ((What are you trying to do with it?))
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 3:53:44 AM)
(Dante is paranoid since he just came back to town, he is feeling out to see if someone is doing anything supernatural against him at this time since he just showed up)
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 3:55:00 AM)
*Will wait for Colin to drink from the Tea First* So you work for Victor? I didn't catch your name? *begins to feel a bit relieved*
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 3:56:18 AM)
((You don't need to activate awareness for that; no one is...)) "Me? I'm no one important, but ye can call me Colin." A faint smile crosses his lips as he eyes the other man, followed by an eyeroll before he lifts the cup to his lips and takes a long swallow, looking at Dante pointedly. He then shrugs and sets the cup down on a blotter on the desk. "What do ye be wantin' with Victor, then?"
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 3:58:10 AM)
*chuckles softly and takes a long drawl from the tea, he wipes his mouth with his hand and sighs with the refreshment* Nice to meet you Colin... I've come to offer him my services in an unofficial capacity.
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 3:59:19 AM)
The man purses his lips for a moment, then nods, folding his hands in his lap and leaning back in the chair to prop his feet on the desk. "What services?"
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:02:34 AM)
*ponders the man for a moment* No offense Colin... but you said yourself that you are no one of import... *extended pause* I would prefer to speak directly with Victor in regards to specifics. I don't know you. I ASSUME you work for him... for nobody would be stupid enough to pretend to be something they aren't.... *chuckles softly* I don't believe many would want to cross him.... *locks eyes* or me.
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 4:07:02 AM)
Colin watches Dante for a moment, then sighs softly and drops his feet back onto the floor, resting his elbows on the desk and leaning forward a bit. "Let me explain somethin' to ye... Dante, ye said? Who I am should not matter one iota to someone like ye. Victor is a busy man, and as such, he sent me here to meet with ye and find out what ye want. So, ye can either give me the general idea of what ye want, or ye can get the fuck outta Victor's yard before he gets wind that ye were threatening me... ye ken?"
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:13:27 AM)
*finally getting the confirmation he needed Dante raises his right hand in the "ok ok motion" and smiles* I understand completely. I just wanted to ensure you were acting in HIS interests. *pauses* I am ver adept at gathering information, whether it be on people or things... I know quite a few special details about many of our kind here in the city. *breathes deeply before continuing with his verbal resume* I am very mobile and can access many locations extremely quickly... get in get out kind of thing... and quite some time ago... I used to be very good in the wet work department. *allows Colin to take it all in* Any questions? I'd prefer it that way...
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:16:46 AM)
I can do my job best if I am seen as a freelancer... with no political ties. *pauses* But if the need ever arose... and only in extreme circumstances... I would want the backing of the court... specifically Victor... were I to be threatened unfoundedly.
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:18:04 AM)
(i.e. I don't EVER want eminence or official recognition from the court... but unofficially I would want the same eminence granted to those of status... in exchange I would perform tasks as if I were a standard worker within the Ministry of the Eagle)
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 4:21:14 AM)
Colin sat back again, keeping a stern eye on the man across from him. "If this is all a dick measuring contest to see who has Victor's best interest in mind, dinna let the door hit ya in the bum on the way out. If ye are saying that ye can get information, and have something on the others in the city, then ye will have ta give me a little more to go on that I can take to Victor. If ye want to work with him, then ye will need ta be recognized by the Court... and /that/ may mean ye will need to make an appearance in front of the Court..." ((Unfortunately, you cannot have it both ways... either you are recognized by the court, and work for them, which will grant you an eminence raise in the demonic society, or you are not recognized by the court and are not given the chance to work up through the ranks by being recognized for the work you do... that does not mean you cannot work for the Eagles as a freelance informer, but you'll never get recognition for your deeds...))

Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:29:34 AM)
*ignores the comment about a dick measuring contest* I could tell you the celestial names, houses, and previous legions for many in the city... London Carter for instance was a Captain in the Silver Legion....*begins to rattle off random pieces of information about Adam Johnson, Selma Nelson, Janette, Violetta, etc... leaving off with...* These are all pieces of information that if put together would give Victor pieces of their true names. In regards to my combat prowess... I was in the attack upon the compound a few weeks ago and I gave the killing blow to the beast that lived within the cavern.
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:30:36 AM)
(absolutely no eminence it's not his style... but since Victor can't offer me the unofficial officialness... i'm not sure what he could offer me)
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 4:34:35 AM)
He eyes Dante for a few moments, then nods. "I will pass this along ta Victor and see what he wants ta do. However, I would like ta point out a couple o' things that seem ta be lackin' in yer report. First of all, this Janette person is dead. We do not know what happened ta the one inside. Adam, as well. However, as I said, Victor will need to make the decision as ta what he wants ta do with this. Ye will be contacted in a few days, either by myself or someone else, ta set up another meeting to pass along his response. However, until such a time that he feels you are workin' f'r him, and not f'r yerself, I can promise ye that he will not see ye personally. Ye ken?"
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:38:15 AM)
*nods twice* Understood... *blinks* By the way, I realize the... body... of Adam is dead. He was found in the river... so much water swelled his body that the cause of death was undetermined. *Nathaniel begins to stand* Thanks for seeing me Colin *gives a heartfelt smile*
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 4:39:58 AM)
He nods, a strange smile on his face. "The cause of death was rather simple. He pissed off the wrong person. Ye'd do well to learn from his mistake and not do the same." Leaning back, he props his feet on the desk again, lacing his fingers together and leaning back with them behind his head. "I am sure ye can find yer way out."
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:41:05 AM)
*understanding the situation with Adam and his statement about the Tyrant but not wanting to speak it, Dante simply nods and makes his way to the door*
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:41:27 AM)
(colin is a flower watering asshole)
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 4:43:31 AM)
((Yes, yes he is *grin*))
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:45:03 AM)
(portals in to the restroom while colin is taking a piss and stabs him in the back... no not really but it came to mind)
Colin (Jun 30, 2011 4:45:42 AM)
((lol yeah, keep thinking about that, just don't do it... alright, gotta go write this up and head off for a bit... i'll be back on later, ok?))
Dante Blackston (Jun 30, 2011 4:45:56 AM)
