(This user has entered {FQ} Isabella's Apartment *DtF*) (IP = 188.97.58.18)

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:23:00 PM)
*Recognizing the address of Isabella's Apartment, he makes a brisk walk to her place... excitement nearly showing on his face... when he arrives at the door he knocks three times*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:23:03 PM)
The solid front door is open, but the screendoor is closed. Faint classical music filters out from the open screen at the bottom. Isabella can be seen walking into the kitchen from the dining table. The urn Dante left her is sitting on the table, the cork out of it, and a piece of paper laying on the keyboard of her laptop.

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:24:31 PM)
(Revision: Calls out to Isabella through the screen door) Isabella?

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:25:03 PM)
From in the kitchen, her voice filters out. "It is open!"

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:26:06 PM)
*Dante steps inside the door, taking off his boots and placing them with the others* Thanks for having me over. *glances at the Urn but says nothing*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:28:34 PM)
Finally emerging from the kitchen, she pauses when she sees him in the doorway. Her eyes drop to his feet before she lifts her glass of iced tea to her lips and takes a small sip, then turns and heads back over to the table. "You have my attention. Now..." She sets her tea down and picks up the paper and glares at it before looking at him again. "Do you want to tell me what this says? I do not even know what language it is..."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:29:31 PM)
*chuckles softly* Mind if I sit? *glances at the iced tea*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:32:50 PM)
She shrugs noncommittally and sinks down into the chair in front of the laptop, letting the paper flutter to land back on the keyboard. "I understand that Neberu are lovers of knowledge, but when someone sends an elaborate death threat, it is usually better if the recieving party can at least decipher the message..."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:34:20 PM)
*Dante relaxes into the seat but keeps his attention on Isabella* Isabella, I would first like to say that I have a great respect for you. We have aided each other in regards to information, we have fought side by side against the Earthbound, I surprisingly find your.... *mutters* form... quite pleasing. How could you ever think I would send you an elaborate death threat? *cocks is head to one side*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:37:48 PM)
She shrugs. "Perhaps you were sent by Zacarias, in retaliation for me threatening to geld him... or you were sent by his pet to remove me from the scene for embarrassing him in front of other elohim... or I have somehow managed to inflame and irk someone else of the courts..." She lifts her eyes to look at him, reaching for her tea.

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:39:47 PM)
*glances at the tea and whets his lips* And you have quite a mind on you... to see all these different motives.... for an urn that may or may not have been meant for you *glances over at the urn* I see you've opened it... and I assure you it was not a death threat of any sort and I only have your best intentions at... heart.

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:41:17 PM)
She catches his look, then sighs and holds the glass out for him. "Then why write it in... whatever language that is? I have even tried to have Mateo run it through his encryption friends, and they could not find any rhyme or reason to it..."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:42:57 PM)
*takes the glass and turns it curiously to where her lips were then drinks from that spot* Before I reveal anything I have a few questions... first of all... Why? Why did you open the package... and furthermore why did you open the urn.... it is obviously a miniturized replica of Pandora's box.

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:46:01 PM)
She tilts the urn to the side, revealing the 'made in china' sticker on the bottom. "If this was any sort of relic or anything magical, between myself, London and William, one of us would have know about it. And /that/ tells me that, whatever was in it, was either a bomb... which it obviously was not... or it was some sort of message." She sets it back upright. "And, frankly, until you said something, I had no idea that it was a replica of Pandora's box." She points to a twin of it sitting beside the table just inside her front door. "But I seem to be starting a collection of them....."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:47:27 PM)
*chuckles softly* Again with the biased motitives... as you can see it's obviously not a bomb... but why would you think it was a message? Why would you take it from the cafe? Why would Christian... the mortal know about it?

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:48:00 PM)
How do you know it was meant for you?

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:49:09 PM)
"You are right. I do not. But if that was the case, why did you not take it with you?"

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:50:12 PM)
*his chuckle turns into a laugh* To see if you had the curiosity of Pandora. *raises finger to indicate her computer* Type this in... www.translation-guide.com/free_online_translation

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:50:26 PM)
Since you atleast tried.... *pauses* the language is Latin

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:51:25 PM)
((can you repost to me what the message said, cuz i'm being lazy and don't want to go digging for the screenshot))

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:52:26 PM)
*After a few moments of messing with the website the translation is as follows: the large word Spero means hope. On the reverse side of the parchment it translates to: Pandora was curious. So are you. Come a bit further down the rabbit hole with me and let me take you out on a real date.

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:53:22 PM)
She blinks at the screen for a few long moments. A brow quirks as she reads over it again, then she slowly turns her head to look at him with a slow blink.

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:54:41 PM)
*Dante coughs hesitantly before saying* After Pandora opened the urn... all evil was let loose upon the earth... all that was left was HOPE... or SPERO in Latin... *lets his sentence drop*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:55:53 PM)
Swivelling in her chair, she crosses her legs at the knee and swings her barefoot idlly, balancing herself with one elbow on the table, cupping her chin in her hand while she continues to stare at him.

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:56:52 PM)
So... would you allow me to take you out on a date? *gives his best good ol' boy grin compliments of his host Dante*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 7:58:16 PM)
She pales faintly when realization dawns with the force of a sledgehammer between her eyes. "You are asking me on a /date/??" ((sorry for the other PC reference >.>))

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:58:53 PM)
(lol it's cool i find it humorous)

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 7:59:51 PM)
*nods once* Yes. I have this great idea.... *begins to ramble* Oh let it be a surprise... oh right... *pauses* so would you?

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:00:37 PM)
"I.... I...." She blinks a few times, stunned.

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:03:26 PM)
*raises his eyebrows then takes a quick sip of the tea*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:06:16 PM)
She shrugs and sighs, shaking her head in bemusement. "I do not know what to say." Peering at him closely, her brow furrows. "No one has ever asked me on a date before..."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:07:35 PM)
*Cocks his head to the side.... pauses... then chuckles* Apparently I had a biased opinion.... I mean you are well respected, intelligent, curious, and obviously beautiful... I can't believe myself *pauses* that I am the first. *face blushes slightly*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:09:57 PM)
She blinks at him, then flushes and looks away. "You are kind, if a bit misinformed. I am not nearly as important as you believe..."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:12:50 PM)
*ponders her humble nature and furrows brows himself* One need not have eminence from others to be important. Regardless, I have found that our immortal souls are bound to our hosts memories and emotions.... perhaps there is much to be learned from expressing and sharing those emotions with another that we revere... and perhaps have an attraction for. *pauses* So would you allow me to take you on a date?

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:14:10 PM)
(This is So Neberu mindset)

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:14:31 PM)
She turns to look at him, a shy smile on her face. "Is there any way for me to turn you down gracefully without appearing to be cruel and callously uncaring of the gesture?" Without waiting for a response, she continues. "Yes, of course I will. I just... I do not know anything about dating..."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:17:06 PM)
*ignores the initial comment then smiles widely at the second* It is something we will learn together. *Ponders* Are you free tomorrow at this time?

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:18:11 PM)
"I..." She turns and looks at the calender hanging on the wall over the fireplace, then nods. "I believe so. Jesse has given me an indefinate leave until he can find a replacement band..."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:20:42 PM)
*nods twice then ponders* Pack a small bag with you... wear something... for the summer... perhaps some sandals, no pointy objects... do you have a passport? *begins to stand and has a mischievious grin*

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:21:21 PM)
She pales starkly at the last, eyes widening, and slowly shakes her head.

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:22:43 PM)
*Ponders* No matter... it'll be fine. *sets the glass of tea... nearly finished on the table and backs away toward the door* I have some arrangements that I need to make... I'll give you a call later.

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:23:15 PM)
(if i can pull this off I will make RP history)

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:24:14 PM)
She stays seated and merely nods. "Oh.... okay."

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:24:47 PM)
*gives Isabella a quick wink* I hope you can speak Italian... I can't *chuckles and grabs his shoes by the door and heads out*

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:25:25 PM)
(end scene?)

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:25:48 PM)
She blinks at him and watches him leave, still in shock. After a few minutes, she scrambles for her phone and sends off a text message.

Dante Blackston (Jul 6, 2011 8:26:02 PM)
(I'll take that as a yes)

Isabella Perez (Jul 6, 2011 8:26:03 PM)
((dude... holy crap... *lmao*))
