* Vergesson is a small nightclub in the heart of the Garden district that is known for reasonable food, great drinks and live music on the weekends. Tonight it is a Jazz quartet. *
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 8:45:18 PM)
* Chris is working behind the bar and wearing a black polo shirt and blue jeans with a white apron. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 8:45:26 PM)
* http://www.simplydresses.com/shop/viewitem-PD585800 strappy heels anda matching bag after she leaves her coat at the door and wonders into the bar looking around*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 8:47:16 PM)
* Its still too early to be busy here, but there is a dedicated knot of Jazz fans gathered close to the stage. The drinkers are doing the same near the bar. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 8:48:18 PM)
*she would smile and move over toward Chris at the bar* why hello there hansome
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 8:49:01 PM)
" Handsome had to step out. He might be back later. " * He smiles as he wiped a glass clean. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 8:50:09 PM)
*she would chuckles* hmmm I guess you'll just have to keep me entertained in the mean time then
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 8:50:43 PM)
" Well I can try. You look good enough to eat. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 8:51:26 PM)
*she would smile at that preening a bit in her dress* why thank you dear, and how have you been doing tonight?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 8:52:52 PM)
* He glances over to the tip jar, which is filled with much more cash than the small crowd in the bar should have ever produced. * " It has been pretty good tonight all things considered. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 8:53:43 PM)
*she would smile at him* well that is always good to hear, do you think perhaps later you could have time to dance with me?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 8:55:40 PM)
" Im the boss. I can take my break whenever I like, but I might just leave out early tonight. " * He jacks a thumb in the direction of a younger man at the other end of the bar. * " The new guy needs to pull a couple of shifts on his own sooner or later. What can I make you? "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 8:55:56 PM)
a rose?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 8:57:42 PM)
* He nods and walks over to take a bottle from the fridge under the bar, pouring her a glass of wine. * " Here you are, pretty lady. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 8:58:29 PM)
*She would take the glass of wine sipping it as she looks over to the stage for a moment*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:01:22 PM)
* He took a sip of beer for himself. * " Did your friend ever manage to drag herself out of your bed last weekend? The two of you were still sleeping when I finnaly took off. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:02:07 PM)
*chuckles* yeah she finally got up and Alex came and wrapped his arms around me
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:03:42 PM)
" Good. As long as everyone lived through it. " * He took another drink and then started to untie his apron. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:03:56 PM)
of course we did, why wouldn't we have?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:05:56 PM)
" I have no idea what you guys do when I am not around. Casey seems to be pretty aggressive. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:06:30 PM)
*chuckles* she can be- it has to do with her past
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:06:45 PM)
" I am sure that it does. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:07:15 PM)
our past has so much to effect us- sometimes it's overwhelming
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:08:36 PM)
* He nods at that... * " It is the same for all of use. You just have more past than the rest of us. " * He shrugs at that and takes another drink of beer before tossing his apron in a bucket behind the bar. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:09:51 PM)
*she would smile* perhaps- and sometimes we get confused between then and now *though he might notice that of late she's seemed a bit more lucid*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:11:53 PM)
* He just nods his head again and speaks to the kid behind the bar for a few minutes, then steps out from behind the bar himself. * " That sounds more like PTSD. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:13:02 PM)
in a way it's very similar, though I never thought of that before *she would take his arm wrapping it around her as he steps out from behind the bar*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:15:14 PM)
" I just had a couple of classes in College that dealt with that sort of thing and it just sounds like it. I'm not qualified to say what it is or what it is not. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:16:08 PM)
it's similar I guess, their were terrible things that some people have seen, things they just can't get out of their mind
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:21:49 PM)
* He nods at that. * " I had a girlfriend once who had a bad horseriding accident. I think she had it, but I don't know for sure. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:22:38 PM)
*she would nod* I've been trying to get better and face everything, I've been talking to Larry (the man that shot her) he's getting a lot better
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:23:44 PM)
" You really think thats a good idea? "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:24:12 PM)
someone had to before he maybe hurt someone the next time
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:25:24 PM)
" Just saying maybe it should be in a hospital. " * He takes his free hand and walks his fingers up her leg absently. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:26:44 PM)
*she would look to him* but I'm better at it than they are- I can get in where a lot of people can't
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:29:03 PM)
" He tried to kill you once. He might try again. or he might take it to worship and try to sacrifice me, or one of your other people. He does not seem all that stable to me. Its your call, but thats how I feel about it and I will be watching him closely if he starts hanging around. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:30:31 PM)
he was broken and I'm fixing him, someone has to- he'll have a normal life- a chance to find someone that he actually talks to instead of just fixating on
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:32:51 PM)
" I have said what I had to say. " * He reaches over the bar to grab his beer again, taking another drink. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:33:44 PM)
*she would smile and kiss him softly* don't worry, I am not an idiot, but I'm also not going to see him denied a chance to get better and have a normal life
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:34:53 PM)
* He smiles at the kiss... * " What you are offering him is not a normal life, but I get what you are trying to say. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:35:41 PM)
it's at least better *lowering her voice* and if I take him under my wing I'll be able to protect him
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:38:17 PM)
" There are some people that do not deserve to be protected. There are also some people that do not want to be protected. We don't need to be arguing over this. I am not going to question what you do. I just can not say that I am going to start dealing with Larry as anything other than a nutcase, because that is what he is. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:39:38 PM)
*she would smile and give him another soft kiss* you do realize that in comparison to many of us he's perfectly sane
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:42:04 PM)
* He lets the kiss sink in for a few moments before answering... * " No, I don't. If you think that someone needs to die you do not do it in such a public way. Thats self destuctive behavior. And he was obsesive about it from everything i have heard. I just do not know many people that are like that. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:44:46 PM)
*her voice is low and quiet against him- words that are only meant for him* I've seen it over and over again- during the war people were tortured to death simply because people couldn't understand- pain- destruction was the order of the day- it wasn't just armies clashing- it was horrors beyond horrors
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:46:09 PM)
" So fix him and then let him go. Make him forget his past or something. Its just not a good person to have just hanging around you. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:46:38 PM)
I can't
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:47:51 PM)
" Why not? "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:49:08 PM)
*her voice still so very quite* for starters I can remove memories, on top of that if I could he wouldn't learn anything from his mistakes if I just took the memories, and on top of that I can't protect him if I don't keep him close and someone that takes offense at what he did to me will kill him and I'll never know who it was
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:51:26 PM)
" I just always assumed that you could. " * He shrugs... * " But not all killers just walk into a crowded bar and shoot you. If you keep him close its not protecting him. Its making him easier to find. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:52:28 PM)
our laws won't let them touch him if I claim him
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:53:02 PM)
" Claim him? Oh, so that is what you call it. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:53:33 PM)
it's a convient way to put it where others may be being nosey
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:54:12 PM)
* He just shakes his head again and takes another drink. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:54:44 PM)
what's wrong?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:55:48 PM)
" Just found out that I am a claimed man, and that all of you associates see me as your properity. Thats not exactly what I wanted to be when I grew up. " * He smiles again. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:56:32 PM)
it's not how it would be if it was my choice, but it's not and with things the way they are now it is the only way I can keep you safe
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 9:57:18 PM)
" I know, but like I said before some of us are not into being protected. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 9:58:32 PM)
but you don't want to be left unprotected in this world- trust me
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:00:04 PM)
* He moves his hand up her side and to the back of her neck, pulling her lips closer and kissing her harder than normal before whispering in her ear... * " I know I do not have a choice, so we can let it drop. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:00:44 PM)
*she would return the kiss and nod her head for him- though he can tell that upsetting him does pain her* will you dance with me then?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:04:34 PM)
* He takes her hand and helps her off the stool. * " Of coarse. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:04:58 PM)
*she would leave the wine and move off with him to the dance floor*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:05:56 PM)
* And he leads the way. *
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:06:34 PM)
*and she would wrap her arms around him on the dance floor pressing against him as they dance*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:07:33 PM)
* He is quiet, holding her tightly as they dance but not really hearing the music. He does not seem to be upset. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:09:56 PM)
do you want to stay here or go back to my home?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:10:31 PM)
" Its up to you. If you want to go somewhere else I will. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:11:12 PM)
I just want to see you be happy
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:12:57 PM)
" I'm not unhappy. I mean I am not thrilled but I don't think I would be if I had never met you either. My life would have been fucked up with or without you. " * He smiles again. * " At least I have a pretty girl on my arm tonight. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:13:38 PM)
*she would smile as she dances with him- seeming to love the dancing* you can take her home if you want too
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:14:48 PM)
* He shakes his head. * " I don't think she would like my place. It has a weird smell that I have not been able to locate the source of yet. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:15:10 PM)
you could go back to her place and enjoy her silk sheets
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:15:33 PM)
" I think you know I would never say no to that. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:16:10 PM)
*she would smile- a whisper in his ear* so do you like me better like this or like myself?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:17:20 PM)
* He swhispers as well... * " I try not to draw a distinction between the two. I just like you. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:17:58 PM)
*she would smile at that and hold close to him* you say the sweetest things
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:19:01 PM)
" Yeah, thats me. A really sweet guy. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:19:56 PM)
*she would smile- her fingers moving up to play with his hair as she kisses him softly*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:21:05 PM)
* He returns the kiss, pulling her against him as they dance. * " All my clothes are starting to smell like you though. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:21:45 PM)
is that a bad thing? *her body soft and warm as they dance- no resistance at all to him*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:22:40 PM)
" Nope. Not until the guys start to think that I am wearing perfume. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:23:17 PM)
I think roses would definately be your scent if you did
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:24:10 PM)
* He shakes his head at that but he smiles... * " I don't see it happening anytime soon. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:24:39 PM)
*she would smile nuzzling against his neck* would it help if I wore musk when I came to see you?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:25:48 PM)
" No, I like the way you smell. If I start getting questioned about it I will just start putting on more cologne. Its not a big deal. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:27:36 PM)
*she would smile- likely close enough that she's making dancing hard but she's happy* unfortunately eventually we'll need to talk about buisness tonight though
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:29:22 PM)
* He does his best to stay off her feet, but then gives up and just lifts her so that her feet are on his... * " You should not be involved in my business and I do not know how much I should even know about yours. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:30:57 PM)
but they cross more than you may think- nothing is ever clear cut- nothing was ever clear cut *she lets him move her where ever he wants, just as long as his arms are still around her she seems to be happy*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:32:08 PM)
" Just sayingits not going to do anyone any good to have you get cought in possesion. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:33:35 PM)
*shakes her head* not exactly that kind of business, I just need some information that you might hear
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:34:03 PM)
" Ah ok. That I think I can do. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:35:34 PM)
just keep your eyes out for anything about Johnny boy or the Goddie boys and it would be appriciated
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:36:42 PM)
" I have been, but they just do not come around here and none of the guys that I know in the city have gotten back to me on it. I really think they must be small time. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:37:25 PM)
*she would nod* well if that's the case then that is good news- I just like to know what is going on
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:39:30 PM)
* He dips his chin to give the top of her head a kiss. * " I will ask around again. Maybe I just need to throw a few bills around to loosen some lips. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:40:22 PM)
if you need more money I can get it for you easily- or if you need a pretty girl with a disarming smile on your arm I can arrange that too
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:42:19 PM)
" I can always use more money, but I don't need more. I am really not a greedy guy. If I ever really need it I promise I will ask for it. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:43:05 PM)
*she would nod* ok dear- I really do appriciate everything you do for me
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:44:02 PM)
* Then as an afterthought... * " I don't want you meeting the guys that I deal with. Half of them would try to rob you and the other half would try to fuck you, and when it comes to these guys I would rather not see either happen. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:45:09 PM)
my protector huh *her voice is a bit teasing, but her eyes sparkle with delight- obvious that she likes it when people look out for her and take care of her*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:47:13 PM)
" I just don't think you need those kinda headaches, and being seen in public with guys like these would not be good for your public image. I mean I am an asshole, but at least I am a clean asshole. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:47:51 PM)
you aren't an asshole, you're a very wonderful man that helps me remember just how wonderful the world can be
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:48:49 PM)
" Its more like I am a drug dealer and a womanizer, but I am glad that you enjoy my company. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:50:11 PM)
but you are a good guy, you don't just go about hurting people because you can
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:52:34 PM)
" Thats right, but some of the guys I deal with do, so you don't need to know them. They would just bring you down. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:52:59 PM)
*she would nod and kiss his neck softly* thank you
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:53:41 PM)
" Your welcome. Though if you ever know anyone that needs to hide money let me know. I know a girl that is really good at that. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:54:07 PM)
hide money? *she doesn't seem to quite grasp what he is suggesting*
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:55:20 PM)
" Yeah, like if they have alot of money that they cant just put in a bank or something. This girl knows how to hide it. Keep the police from finding it or asking too many questions. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:55:42 PM)
does she know how to find it if someone else is doing that?
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:56:02 PM)
" She knows alot of the tricks, yeah. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:56:28 PM)
If Maksism happens to be keeping any money that we don't know about finding out could be very useful
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 10:57:12 PM)
" Sure, all she needs is a direction to start looking in I would think. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 10:58:00 PM)
unfortuantely with Swan away *a bit of a sad note entering her voice at that* it'll be hard for me to find that out
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:00:41 PM)
" Well one thing that I do have confidence in is Mr. Murphy. Your guy will slip up eventually, or someone that works for him will. You just need to be paying attention when that happens. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 11:01:13 PM)
I plan to be watching everything he does
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:02:02 PM)
" Sometimes thats the best thing that you can do. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 11:02:40 PM)
*nods* I just hate having to wait
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:03:35 PM)
" It would be nice if we could isolate just one of his buyers. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 11:04:09 PM)
*she would nod* but that is so far outside of anything that I can do
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:11:41 PM)
" I don't really know anyone in that bussiness that I know of at least. Sex slavery is one thing that I try not to get close too. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 11:12:33 PM)
*she would shiver against him- her body a bit stiff* it's terrible, it was never meant to be like that
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:15:22 PM)
" Never assumed that it was, but it happens. Thats the reality that we have to live with right now. Maybe there is someone else in that line of work that could be taken down though. Give up some name of people that buy and sell people that maybe have heard of this guy. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 11:15:57 PM)
I'll see what I can find out, but right now I think its just waiting till we get our house in order
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:17:18 PM)
* He nods... * " Well I can't help with that, but if I see anything that I can help with I will run ideas by you. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 11:17:44 PM)
*she would nod and kiss him softly again* you are wonderful you know
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:18:17 PM)
" I am not as great as you seem to think I am. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 11:19:08 PM)
*smiling against him* why don't you let me be the judge of that
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:21:53 PM)
" Ok, but all this dancing and rubbing on each other is taking its toll on me. Lets get out of here. I have a little room upstairs we can use and I really don't think that I am going to make it all the way back out to your home. "
Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Feb 5, 2011 11:22:57 PM)
*she would smile- no hint of shame in her eyes* lead the way
Chris Karlson (Feb 5, 2011 11:24:48 PM)
* As soon as she steps down off of his feet he does just that, leading her through a door behind the bar and up a short flights of stairs to a storage room that someone converted into an emergency bedroom during the storm. * {{ Fading here. }}
