Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:33:24 PM)
*the sounds of pan's clattering and general cooking sounds can be heard outside the door when Anat pulls up. She would have a Key because they've been friends and..more for years*

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:37:09 PM)
*And more! Indeed. The seemingly less frustrated than usual Anat pulls up outside the building and makes her way up. She had brought some beer and a cheesecake for dessert. She was dressed in a white shift-like dress with cowboy boots, her hip-length hair loose. She saluted him when she walked in* Hey. Nice to see you've returned.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:38:49 PM)
*Grins and continues to boil pasta, the smells of a homemade speghetti sauce assault her nose* Hey there. Sorry, had to go out of town on short notice..."Official" business.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:39:40 PM)
Oh yeah? Didn't realise we were called out for 'official' business anymore. Since we're little better than pariahs in this swamp. *She put her items down on the table* Smells good. Pasta?

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:40:02 PM)
*He pulls out a pair of Lobster pot holders...These things are awesome, in the shape of a lobster with pinchers and whiskers and all, and pours the noodles into a collander* Set that stuff on the counter* Thought I'd make my speghetti for you tonight

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:43:02 PM)
Red sauce? *She put the beer in the fridge and the cake on the counter, peeking in the pan* ...and I'm wearing white, of course.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:43:51 PM)
*chuckles* All part of my elaborate plan to get you outta your clothes. But anyway. Mom needed some help with a Marauder in England. took us a couple months to track him down.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:47:08 PM)
Apparently. ...Ah. Well, here on the homefront, there's little to no change. I received this missive from Rhiannon. *She handed it over. It said the following: "Anat: I do value you as family, and for some time we have been trying to ascertain the fate of the Chantry that was in New Orleans. We have not been able to do so. We have noted that Sybilla, whose mundane name was Martha Brown, is no longer employed by Tulane University. We have been unable to find out where and when, and all couriers into the area have been returned to us less than whole. Our other attempts at scrying have been blocked. Enclosed is a serum that should help the child recover while you seek out Sybilla. She will be able to assist you further. Please report to me as soon as you recieve this message."*

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:48:01 PM)
*reads it over* ooook, what'd i miss.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:48:14 PM)
*nods to the beer* that better be guinness

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:48:40 PM)
I've been sending her semi-threatening messages since the Order won't say /anything/ about what happened here. Of course it's Guinness, don't be daft.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:49:09 PM)
Also, have you met Lou?

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:49:39 PM)
*reaches for it* Start from the begining. *Pops 2 fo them and hands one to her* Can't believe mom wouldn't tell me anything *pulls on the awesome beer and shakes his head* nope, should I have?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:51:54 PM)
He's new here. Another Flambeau. Must be something huge brewing, since we are all answering some unheard call. *She found an empty counter to hop up onto* There's no start. You already know that we can't find anything. Order's been able to come up with nothing. Some kid - former Virtual Adept, or something - she 'found' a flash drive with some top secret Technocracy files regarding their plan to wipe us all out. I'm thinking it's leaked to make us paranoid, but a lot of folks are taking it for the real thing.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:52:33 PM)
(Check skype hon)

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:54:16 PM)
(done)

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:57:17 PM)
So hold on here...Where was this flash drive found?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:57:36 PM)
Some park, or something? It was literally on the ground. Hence my thinking it wasn't left by accident.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 5:58:11 PM)
*sips some more of his beer and grimaces* Total plant. how many people have the End is Nigh mentality going on?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 5:59:51 PM)
Pretty much everyone. They're all talking about going underground and not forming a council and just working via cells. Which, whatever. It's not a bad idea, but no one works together here. Without a skeleton council to direct the hordes, we're all re-inventing the wheel and will be easily crushed.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:00:23 PM)
Porthos, for once can I have an easy assignment?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:02:45 PM)
*She rolls her eyes* Check your drama, Connor. /I'm/ the one in charge.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:02:52 PM)
When I came here, the last thing i wanted to do..was rebuild a council. *shakes his head and goes to stir the sauce*

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:03:10 PM)
Well, lucky for you, you won't have to. I'm working on it.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:03:34 PM)
What, you think I'm going to sit this out?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:05:13 PM)
I'm not expecting you to 'sit this out.' But diplomacy isn't exactly your thing. I'd much rather you be working the Technocracy angle and getting some information than arguing with the idiots in the other Traditions here.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:05:44 PM)
Yeah...my temper hasn't improved in the last 10 years.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:05:59 PM)
Clearly not.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:06:25 PM)
*chuckles* i recall that you liked that *winks at her and pours the sauce into a bowl*

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:07:08 PM)
*She rolled her eyes*

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:08:20 PM)
*Smiles and sets the bowl on the table with the pasta, heading over to the oven, pulling out the garlic bread* Soo, tell me the REAL reason you came here..and it's not to catch me up on the local gossip on As the Avatar Grows

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:10:18 PM)
Uh, you invited me? And agreed to cook? Did I need more of a reason?

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:10:45 PM)
*Eyes her* Come on Annie...

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:12:36 PM)
I hate being called Annie, you know that. *She frowned and hopped off of the counter* Hardly fear inspiring. Anyway. I did /really/ just come for dinner. But ...if you are interested ... I'm also willing to talk you into joining my cabal.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:13:55 PM)
*smiles* You used to like it. But ok..Anat. *pulls out Anat's chair for her* Sell me.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:16:33 PM)
*She sat down and grinned* Well. I don't /need/ to sell it to you. It's me. You know what I'm capable of, and you, more than anyone, know how my particular history makes this city a strong one for me. The daughter of the angel of hurricanes in a hurricane prone and ravaged city? There's no better place. That being said ... it appears that my cabal members have both left me permanently. Kairos is busy dealing with Tradition business in Las Vegas, and Simon has returned to Europe. So. I have been speaking to Lou, the new Flambeau, and he is considering my offer. But we need a third.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:17:31 PM)
*smiles* And our primary objective? Mayhem and discord? Or intel gathering

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:17:50 PM)
Protocol enforcement and protection from the Technocracy.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:18:01 PM)
So we're Quaesitors?

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:18:12 PM)
Or old school Tytalus

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:19:41 PM)
We're what we need to be. Dying in a blaze of glory won't help things right now.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:20:08 PM)
I think people have forgotten what the Order is about.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:20:11 PM)
Very true.. *He sits down and hands her the bowl of pasta while helping himself to the garlic bread*

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:24:22 PM)
*She takes the pasta and very carefully places some in her bowl. Most of her attention on not getting anything on the dress!!* So. Yeah.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:24:38 PM)
Soo, Seeing anyone?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:26:22 PM)
Why do you always ask me that?

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:26:45 PM)
Because I'm just waiting for my time to strike *grins and takes some pasta, passing her the sauce*

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:27:06 PM)
And for gods sake, we've been friends for years.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:27:18 PM)
I can't be interested in your personal life?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:29:45 PM)
It just seems so important to you. And no, no I'm not. I haven't been doing much besides trying to gather some info and not rip my hair out due to frustration at the Awakened here.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:31:13 PM)
*chuckles*It's important because I want you to be happy sweetie, but I'll stop asking if it bothers you. Anyway...tell me more about what you're trying to do, any intel you've got.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:34:16 PM)
You've seen everything I have. The possibly real, possibly not real information from the technocracy, and this letter from Rhiannon. All my other inquiries have been dead ends. (Because the STs haven't gotten back to me at all on anything)

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:35:25 PM)
*sighs* Let me see if I can get anything. And Yeah, I'll join your Cabal. Only way I'm gonna see you in this half crazed city.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:37:05 PM)
That isn't true, necessarily. *She smiles* Aw, I'm a jerk but you know I like spending time with you. Mostly.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:37:47 PM)
When I'm not trying to weasel a date out of you *smiles*

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:39:13 PM)
*Her smile fades, and her attention is suddenly on the food in front of her* ..It's just been a long time, that's all. I'm ...not sure if we've become too good of friends to date, you know?

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:41:19 PM)
*Smiles sadly* I know sweetie. One day at a time.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:41:38 PM)
But, maybe. You know how we all. Heat of battle and all of that.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:42:28 PM)
(er, how we are)

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:45:15 PM)
*smiles* True. How's Rhianon doing?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:45:55 PM)
Good, I think. This letter's the first in awhile. *Speaking of, she took it and put it back into her bag* Travelling through Scotland.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:47:44 PM)
*nods* Haven't spoken to Dad in a while. He's been very outspoken to me coming down here...Mom's been a bit more understanding. Me personally, I think they should've had another kid other than me.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:48:03 PM)
I think your father just likes being crabby, to be honest.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:48:40 PM)
*laughs* I think that's it. Probably needs to get laid..oh my god, i can't believe i just said that.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:48:58 PM)
Confusing ...isn't your mother really hot?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:49:08 PM)
And, I mean in the attractiveness sense.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:49:22 PM)
ANNIE!

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:49:30 PM)
That's My MOTHER, you're talking about

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:49:38 PM)
*She grinned wickedly* Well, she's not /my/ mother.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:49:53 PM)
*slaps hands over his ears* LALALALALALA I'm not hearing this!

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:50:05 PM)
Okay, okay, I will stop!

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:50:29 PM)
*eyes her...he knows how devious she can be*Uh huh *lowers his hands*

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:52:10 PM)
I'm serious! I need to eat before this gets cold anyway. *She picks up her fork and makes a great show of getting ready to eat*

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:52:46 PM)
...you're in a house with a flambeau....does anything EVER get cold in this house?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:52:58 PM)
...Food still does?

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:53:15 PM)
*Snaps his fingers and a flame sprouts between them*...come on.

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:53:42 PM)
*She rolls her eyes and begins twirling pasta on her fork* Such a show off.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:54:14 PM)
*Smiles and extinguishes the flame and attacks his own pasta*...needs more burgandy next time *about the sauce*

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:55:01 PM)
Mm burgundy. *She takes a bite and chews*

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:57:55 PM)
*Smiles* It's a good pasta additive

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:58:26 PM)
Wine in general is good. I'm guessing the rest of the bottle is in your tummy now, that you keep talking about sex? *She grinned again*

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 6:58:58 PM)
*Smiles* no, it's in the cabinet. Want some?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 6:59:21 PM)
...Sure. Why not.

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 7:00:07 PM)
*smiles and gets up, tossing napkin on the table, getting a couple wine glasses from the rack above the sink, he pours 2 glasses and then sets them on the table, handing one to her, taking the other *To Old times?

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 7:01:29 PM)
*She takes the wine and smiles* Yes. To old times. *She clinks her glass against his*

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 7:02:54 PM)
*takes a sip and smiles* mm, that's a good bottle, gonna have to get another

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 7:03:12 PM)
You're so classy. *She took a sip*

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 7:03:36 PM)
What?! *smiles and sits down* so, what else has been happening since i was back in England

Anat Mulholland (Nov 30, 2010 7:04:57 PM)
(eep, afk phone)

Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 7:05:13 PM)
