**It's mid evening and the moon is hanging heavy and full in the cloudless New Orleans sky. A balmy breeze blows and the streets are milling with both the first wave of christmas tourists and the local populace, heading out to enjopiy the resturant and riverside crowds. The directions from the Knight Agency lead you to avery nicely appointed apartment building, complete with uniformed doorman**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 12:52:28 AM)
*Sam takes the card out of his pocket and double checks teh adress he has jotted down and heads up to the door, A long grey overcoat open at the front covers most of his Black suit, he wears a white shirt and black tie, looking as usual dressed for business... or a funeral*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 12:53:45 AM)
**The doorman, tips his hat with gloved hands as you approach and pushes the door open for you** Good eveing to you..The front desk is just through here sir

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 12:55:30 AM)
*Sam gives him the slightest inclination of his head as he walks in and takes a look around as he approaches the front desk*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 12:56:08 AM)
**The interior is all brass and glass, with tall green palms in oversized pots and a wash of air conditioning. A pretty young blond at the desk looks to you tyhrough designer glasses and smiles, abeit coldly while you note that one arm moves under the desk as you approach* Good evening sire aned welcome to the Newport... How can I help you

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 12:58:46 AM)
I believe I have an appointment this evening. *his manner is polite yet somewhat aloof* My name is Samuel Quentin. *expecting to be expected*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 12:59:18 AM)
Of course, if you'd step over to the far elevator, It will take you straight up

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:00:00 AM)
**The younmg lady takes up a phone and in doing so, the chromed doors hush open, leaking muzak into the foyer**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:01:30 AM)
thank you* he truns and walks over to the elevator stepping in and placing his hands behind his back he looks to the corners for cameras,*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:02:50 AM)
**There are indeed camera's on both far upper corners and as you step into the eleavtor, a curious black eye no larger than a dime is situated in one of the smooth walls. Kenny G, enemy to all Fallen plays as you feel the elevator rise smoothly, though it is quick to accelersate to the penthouse suite.**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:04:43 AM)
*chuckles slightly to himself at the choice of music, but keeps himself composed, sure hes being watched.He hardly moves waiting for the doors to open*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:09:05 AM)
**The doors open out into an apartment, white carpet stretching out in every direction. The room is bare save for a single white leather couch, coffee table and opposing arm chair in the same finish, and a stocked bar in the corner. The room ends with an arch leadfing to the rest of the apartment to your left, and floor to celing plate windows. The shutters have been rolled back to show the New Orleans city scape and river beyond. The vista is impressive, as the tiny red tail lights far below snake in every direction in opposition to the white blinking stars of those coming the other way. The veins and capillaries of the city ever flowing amid the growing city. As you take a scany moment to scan the room, Victoria's velveteen voice whispers across the room** Come in and fix yourself a drink, I won't be a moment.

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:10:00 AM)
(scany - scant)

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:15:02 AM)
*Sams pace is calm yet deliberate as he makes his way over to the bar,he takes in the view and conciously tries to force himself not to search out the source of her voice, he looks for a nice scotch, he doesnt takes a glass and pours himself a scotch, no ice. And raises it to his nose breathing in and again admiring the view*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:15:19 AM)
**Victoria can be seen through the arch, dressed in her customary white and the dress is both stunning and provocative. Sheer to the skin, the satin washes about her legs with a mid height split, long in the sleeves but leaving her back bared to the buttocks. A small clutch purse beside her suggests the theatre. She is speaking into a wireless earpiece, and you catch odd words such as 'transfer' .... 'Zash' and 'Mirror'**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:15:24 AM)
(minus one doesnt)

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:15:32 AM)
( :) ))

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:17:12 AM)
*He sips the scotch and turns waiting for her to finish speaking*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:17:16 AM)
**Tossing the headset aside, she turns and takes the chopsticks from her hair, allowing her white main of hair to spill down her back and she walks into the room on bared feet** Good evening Mr Quentin, may I call you sam?

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:17:42 AM)
*he inclines his head* As you wish

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:17:52 AM)
or do you prefer Samuel perhaps?

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:18:32 AM)
**She heads to the bar and fixes herself a cognac in a large glass**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:19:24 AM)
I prefer Samuel when im doing business. However which ever youd prefer to use is fine.

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:19:54 AM)
whats in a name after all

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:23:18 AM)
**She looks to you and smiles, her sapphire eyes eyes almost too blue to be real. Victoria is a woman of stunning perfection. Slim without being thin, curvy without being round. She fills the dress like Marylyn Munroe and yet somehow her movements are more predatory, perhaps even premeditated** I like that position. I find that too often, our number seize on a name and make a character for them to become, rather than attempt to regain who they were... shall we? **she moves to the seats and takes the couch, Laying to one end but neither leg quite on the couch**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:29:41 AM)
*He follows her over ,not above taking advantage of the view, he heads for the amrchair*Memory is a tricky thing for some. Particularly those who didnt know who they were in the first place.

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:30:02 AM)
Very Perceptive **Her voice is naturally touched with a hint of accent though it's impossible to place and has a casual, seductive roughness to it that adds texture.** You contacted the Knight Agency with the request of this meeting and usually that would mean some sensitive information was burning your palms. However, **her lips suggest a smile, though her eyes don't follow, being more searching** That is not your intention is it.

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:33:11 AM)
*he sips his scotch as he takes his seat* I have no doubt that youre already aware of most things i might deem sensitive.*his emerald green eyes are sharp and acutely aware of thier surroundings* So ,No, that was not my intention ,thgouh ill glady answer any question you wish to ask. I came to speak to you about the dragons.

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:34:13 AM)
Feel free, I have an hour before the curtain raises *she smirks a little*

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:40:02 AM)
I seek membership. *hes is a business man, and his delivery is rightly busniess like* I thought perhaps, you might be interested to find out if Im worthy. I also came to find out exactly what it means to work for your ministry* he emphasizes your*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:41:52 AM)
**she sips at the cognac** You already know what it is the Dragon Ministry does I assume... that is.. you understand why the ministry is neccesary

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:42:16 AM)
*he nods curtly*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:43:46 AM)
Would you mind telling me why you think we're neccesary Samuel?

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:46:21 AM)
It would seem , my lady, that we are all inclined to disobedience, a tendency to rebel against established authority *he pauses to sip the scotch* We are also highly social creatures. and well to put it simply, one must ensure that one rotten apple doesnt spoil the whole batch.....Am I far off?

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 1:51:26 AM)
Not at all. To be frank with you Samuel, very few people approach me. My office inspires mistrust and suspicion and I was curious nas to what measure of our number would desire such as we are. A seeker of knowledge? Someone who sought a quick road to influence perhaps?

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 1:59:01 AM)
*his eys have a claculating look in them as he responds* It is true the reputation of the ministry precedes you. Let me speak plainly with you. I cam here seeking membership becuase I see fallen everywhere who forget what they are, what they were and drudge it out like some human. They lack ambition, foresight, and they endanger all of us. I want to find out who they are and I want them to get in line and back in step, I think there is a fight brewing

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:02:16 AM)
**She nods just a little, thinking about that. as she does, from her clutch purse, a double beep** ahh

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:03:49 AM)
**She stands** Then let's cut the rug on one of the more aggravating ends of the job shall we. Through that arch is a roll of carpet, would you mind fetching it out for me and rolling it out before the elevator?

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:04:55 AM)
*sam finishes the scotch* Certainly *he goes to do so*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:10:09 AM)
**As the rug is rolled out, the elevator whines as it rolls downstairs** Thankyou. So, if you wouldnt mind just observing for now. Darcy Cobb has been a useful insider to the the largest underworld cartel in New Orleans for the past three years. However, he's recently had ideas above his station and is using his crew to take more than his due. Now, ordinarlily, that wouldn't concern me that much, but I believe his sudden inspiration comes from a more divine source

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:12:01 AM)
*the corner of his lips pull up in the hint of a smile* I'll be as the fly on the wall*, he moves back to the bar to return his empty glass*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:14:10 AM)
**The doors open and a hard faced young man in a white shirt, string tie and chino's steps out, white victoria has fetched out her clutch purse** Darcy.... So good of you to come

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:14:38 AM)
**She holds up a hand** just there is fine, I don't want your boots on my carpets... So?

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:14:39 AM)
*he returns to his seat and watches with a fairly bland expression*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:16:36 AM)
**Darcy looks back with a smug expression** What's this about and wheres the big man?

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:17:47 AM)
**Victoria smiles and looks to Sam** The 'Big Man' would be the boss of our organisation, Adrian ..you met him downstairs I believe **she clearly means the doorman and you understand the man has been played*

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:18:57 AM)
*he smiles, and chuckles abit*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:21:35 AM)
**She turns back to Darcy** You were given explicit instructions to collect information as to who has been dealing with Manfield Goldburg and still, I know nothing. Instead, you have been dipping into the company fund. Added to this insult *she steps forward* you were so insulting as to think that you could begin calling yourself Chief before you'd been sanctioned and therefore have earned the attention of the west side. The MOST important, in fact, the only thing I expected fo you was that as an insect, noone would notice you

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:23:41 AM)
**Darcy sneers** now wait a fucking... **Victoria takes out and fires the 9mm in one easy action. darcy screams as his kneecap scatters to the rug and he drops to his side** I did not ask for a responce, I am giving you my own

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:24:34 AM)
*Sam had basically expected this since shed said someone was coming up ,the gunshot doesnt seem to phase him, if he had more scotch he would sip it*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:29:24 AM)
Darcy.... **she sighs** You are only useful to me while you follow simple and clear instructions so I hope I have your attention. You are to discover WHO Manfield is paying to help expand his operation. Now, I have someone coming up to help you back to the car, and I expect results before the week is out or your knee will be the very last of your worries. Angela is nine .. now I hear? **Gasping, Darcy lkooks up, lost and confused and whimpering.** and Robbie said his first words only last friday... what a miracle our childrenm can be... a blessing really. But of course as they say **she slips the handgun back ito her purse** you only really appreciate these things when their gone

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:31:39 AM)
**The elevator doors open and Adrian the doorman, on closer inspection being a very well built doorman, steps out and scoops Darcy up off the floor, a roll of bandages in hs free hand** I will have someone drop in Darcy, travel safely. **the doors close**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:33:04 AM)
*Sam has a slight smirk on his face as he watches the last of the exchange*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:34:33 AM)
So, Samuel.... Should you wish to operate within the Ministry, I will of course have a vetting period. **she turns to face you** So I can judge if you are as earnest as you appear. I will expect you to understand that in my posiiton, mistakes often mean damage control and I am not one who enjoys the mistakes of others. Therefore you watch, you weigh and you always ensure that your actions reflect your office.

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:36:37 AM)
*he nods* of course *he wonders if darcy's misfortune was regular business or an event staged for his benefit ,to illustrate her idea of lenience* Im not particularly prone to mistakes.

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:39:31 AM)
**as if reading his mind** I am as happy to use candy as I am a cudgel. However Mortals can be bothersome. Officially, Any action against the Elohim must have the Tyrants sanction. Second of all. I have no allusions as ot my position. I work with Khobran because he makes sense, though were he ever to cross the minsitries path as one who endangered our kind, I would have his head on my nightstand just as readliy as any other and have no doubts as to my being victorious in such an exchange.

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:42:42 AM)
*from what He had seen and heard neither did he* I understand, business is business

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:43:24 AM)
And finally **she throws you a set of keys** You'll need to get this apartment cleaned up. I can't have those within the ministry living downtown, not without proper protection. The glass is three inches thick and the entirety of the space is sound proofed. The camera's are piped to the control room downstairs and there are twelve other apartments in this building. They are all empty, do not let them.

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:46:00 AM)
*he catches the keys with an easy grace* ((do not let them?...))

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:46:21 AM)
You never reveal that you work within the Minsitry. YOu will never take a seat in the Dragons house in court although we may speak in public, others will just assume that we;re sleeping together**She walks then back to the bar and checks her makeup in the small mirror there** Now, if we are going to work toegther, you will very soon need ot meet with Crimson and Kalea. They are my ... assistants.

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:46:31 AM)
((let them= lease them))]

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:47:03 AM)
((maybe its an australianism, to let an apaprtment means to rent it))

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:47:45 AM)
((right right ...so what is he just cleaning up the mess or is he supoosed to live here now?))

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:48:24 AM)
((where you live is up to you really, though victoria is expecting you to take up the apartment yes))

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:48:39 AM)
((ok cool))

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:48:56 AM)
((you are free to refuse her offer - expectation))

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:49:59 AM)
((although - its a rent free fifty million dollar, bullet proof property, so think about it))

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:50:25 AM)
*He smiles*Whenever you can spare them, I'll make time. *he lsips the keys into his pocket*

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:52:27 AM)
**And now, I have a date **she smiles** Do take care Samuel, keep your eyes oopen and should I have anything for you, I will be in touch. In the kitchen you will find contact details and such. oh, I should to be fair tell you, that the last inhabitant of this apartment attempted to blackmail another of our kind with information learned though his work

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:53:11 AM)
**He smiles prettily as the elevator doors open and she steps in**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:53:14 AM)
*he grins* you dont need to tell me where hes buried

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:53:34 AM)
NO need *he winks* he's in the freezer

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:53:40 AM)
**the doors close**

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:53:47 AM)
((nice))

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:55:02 AM)
((thanks for your time Legion))

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:55:09 AM)
(((aaaannnd thats the scene. You are now a member of the Dragons, definalty our darkest department. please add that information to your XP thread and I will have Dusk make the appropraiet changes. I will also add the apartment6 to your sheet in a few hrs som you can cherckj out what that gives you))

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:56:05 AM)
((ok cool, Im stoked, thanks for the good scene!))

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:56:33 AM)
((not at all :) It's about time sopmeone stepped up to the Dragons... and will no doubt offfer some interesting angles. YOU may or may not, depending on who your with, hear Darcy's name pop up and lean inot anther sl thread even))

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:56:52 AM)
((cool, glad you're happy, now I better get ready to cook the kids tea

Legion (Nov 21, 2011 2:57:05 AM)
((thanks for playuing, catchn you soon))

Samuel Quentin (Nov 21, 2011 2:57:10 AM)
