*Nightfall and once Ru's regular Tuesday night appointment was done, she made her way to Lina's uncercover of darkness. Tonight the red took the form of leather, mostly straps with largetr patches to cover the important parts*

((Here's the house, though the interiior decor is much different than shown http://www.vacationrentals.com/vacation-rentals/69370.html ))

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 10:55:44 PM)
*is out on the back porch with a big grey tomcat sprawled out across her legs..the chickens settled down in the coop for the night, and that 4.5 ft rattler draped over her chest and shoulders for a nap, she's got a collins glass of what looks like OJ hanging from her fingers off the side of the chair's arm*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 10:57:23 PM)
*She's wearing a skirt for once, a black ruffly affair that looks almost Spanish, a no-shit white poet's shirt on over it, untucked, the low V neck revealing the diamondback rather than her cleavage just now*

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 10:57:40 PM)
*She gave a low whistle as she rounded the corner of the house*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:00:08 PM)
*turns to see Rubi and she waves her to come on into the yard, there is no fence..through most of it. Pieces here and there seem to only hold up the ivy and grapevines* Hey Sugah, come on over.

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:00:55 PM)
*tilts her head as Rubi nears though* That is one hell of an outfit you're almost wearing.. *chuckles*

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:02:52 PM)
Was on duty tonight. For a fella that's eluded the cops more times than I've drank rum. *She sat down on the steps and shed the high heeled boots, flesing her bare feet*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:04:59 PM)
*her own bare feet propped up along the wide seat of the porch swing, Lina sitting across it, the logn skirt brushing the floor* Takes guts to walk into a room like that, *whistling her admiration for the sheer gumption* Let alone dressed in that getup. *taking a drink from her glass* OJ, coconut rum and amaretto.. more of all three on the counter inside if ya like. *smiling and gesturing to the open door nearby*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:11:14 PM)

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:11:45 PM)
(and all elves in bed)

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:12:15 PM)
((lol WB?))

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:13:03 PM)
THanks I do like. A lot. *She stood up and smirked* This one? Is awfulyl well behaved when a woman tha tlooks liek me is there with a whip in hand. *She stepped on into the kitchen to begin mixing her drink*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:14:53 PM)
*laughs softly, leaning her head back, oddly comforted by the sounds of someone else in her house, she smiles a bit and pets the grey tomcat* I don't doubt that..You cold? *opening her dark eyes curiously as the thoguth occurs to her* I think my hoodie's still on the kitchen counter..

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:14:58 PM)
((thought))

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:16:22 PM)
Not at all. I'm good. *Ru's husky laugh rolled out through the window* As I was told earlier. How you doin'? Work okay?

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:17:28 PM)
Yeah..just paperwork. Managed to turn a mountain into a molehill, so I guess I did alright. *settling back with an amused smile and closing her eyes* Nobody died unexpctedly during my 6 hours on call.

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:19:04 PM)
Always good. THough in this town, a miracle. *She stepped back out with her glass adn a fresh one for Lina* How bout your head? How's it doing?

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:21:30 PM)
Just about on straight again. Or as close as it's gonna get. *managing a smile as she exhales* It's all so easy..and so damned strange at the same time.

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:22:52 PM)
Thanks sug. *reaching belatedly to accept the fresh glass*

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:22:59 PM)
You said a mouthful there. it's like.....it was always this way and then I realize it just turned out this way and I can't think on it too long. My brain sorta don't wanna think, just go with it

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:24:19 PM)
*she sets it down beside her, under the swing while she finishes off what's left in her first glass* I can't.. I have to know where I stand. Gotta have my feet under me, or nothing else works out right.

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:26:39 PM)
I understand. Mac's that way. Maybe it's your cop brain? Alwyas the facts, gotta know them. I am so far outside that it makes him crazy sometimes. LIke holdin' water in his hands he says. That's jsut what this feels like too

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:28:58 PM)
Nah.. I can take a whole world on faith alone.. always have. Believed in the things I haven't seen. Trusted a hunch over evidence...till I could get the evidence to line up with it. *sighs out* But that's part of the job.. Not me. *drains the last of her drink and reaches down, leaning over to switch glasses..sitting back with the full one while the diamondback shifts over her to resettle possessively*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:29:53 PM)
I don't need to know everything. I just need to know where -I- am. *she shakes her head and gives up trying to explain it*

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:30:23 PM)
Now? You got somethin' looking you in the eye that defies everything. Soemthin' so much bigger than all o' us. *Seh took a sip of the jet fuel she had mixed up*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:32:03 PM)
Him.. I never had a problem accepting. *looking to Rubina, her expression almost sad* Always did believe in angels.

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:34:40 PM)
Then what? *She swatted way a mosquito that hovered around her*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:35:52 PM)
*her brows furrowing* Just the strangest hunch I've got. Makes things..odd, when before it all seemed so natural.

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:36:52 PM)
Concerning anyhting in particular?

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:38:08 PM)
*nods lightly, venturing after a moment* Riko knew where he was, had clearly spoken with him this morning, came down in a robe and nothing else.. that doesn't strike you as strange, for an angel?

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:39:11 PM)
*unused to the idea, the witch blushes heatedly* I mean really.. makes things so ..strange.

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:40:31 PM)
THey have human forms too, baby. Remember the man getting the tat?

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:41:15 PM)
I know that.. I've seen him as Shinjo.. the supposedly dead man. *shaking her head* Sloppy CSI on that one. Glad it wasn't my name on the report.

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:42:00 PM)
I expect that they still...need whatever we need. He does eat after all.

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:43:30 PM)
*another brilliant blush, choking out* Ah guess.

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:43:57 PM)
*hides behind her glass, muttering* Hadn't thought about it. S'all.

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:45:51 PM)
I don' know teh whole story, but I can tell you she didnt jsut meet him last week. Don't much matter though. He'd run to save your hide or mine just as fast

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:45:59 PM)
*rubs at her cheeks with a hand, the other tipping her glass back to chug half her drink*

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:46:30 PM)
Why do you and Riko both think I'm worried about being protected? *confused at that*

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:49:35 PM)
I don't so much, it's just part of the package. An' this world is a dangerous one.

Lina Devereaux (Oct 26, 2010 11:52:45 PM)
Always has been. Always will be. So what? You go around in fear of that and you'll never live.

Rubina (Oct 26, 2010 11:55:52 PM)
I agree. Just don't let that other get to you.
