(This user has entered Eva's Apartment) (IP = 189.78.12.23)

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:05:59 PM)
*He walks inside with her, still carrying the groceries from earlier.*

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:07:35 PM)
::she moves for the kitchen and starts to put the food away, as she keeps things out for dinner. She did, however, go peek in the rest of the apartment, to make sure nothing was missing::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:08:43 PM)
*Meanwhile, he closed the door securely and was also checking out the apartment.*

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:09:48 PM)
::she let him check it out, and then began working on dinner, chewing on her bottom lip as she sliced and diced nervously::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:11:05 PM)
What are we having? And can I help? You look nervous.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:14:42 PM)
Just... feel weird being back here again. ::she smiles to him a bit::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:17:52 PM)
In your place?

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:18:11 PM)
Felt good to get out, but... I always worry someone might have been in here... or done something.

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:18:54 PM)
Oh...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:19:04 PM)
I see.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:21:40 PM)
::she looks to him:: I'm just.... I feel so paranoid. Like... like he could be anywhere. Or coming to get me...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:22:07 PM)
I'm sorry you have to feel like that. You should feel a little safer with me here.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:22:57 PM)
I do. I'd... be a wreck if I was alone. I'm... I'm really glad you're here, mijo. Really... promise. ::she leaned over and kissed his chest lightly::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:23:46 PM)
I believe you, hun. *He smiles*

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:26:55 PM)
::she gives him a nudge:: So... when this is all over.. what happens then? Do I just... keep going along, knowing what I know?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:27:23 PM)
Pretty much. You promissed me not to spread the knowledge, right?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:27:35 PM)
I have a couple other people who know too.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:28:56 PM)
I promised. ::she nods:: What do you mean "couple of other people"? Like...girlfriends? ::eyes narrowing dangerously::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:29:31 PM)
*Laughs* No.

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:29:42 PM)
Washington from the auto shop...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:29:51 PM)
That boy I'm keeping out of trouble...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:29:58 PM)
And now Margaret. They all know.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:36:04 PM)
Oh.... I see. ::she grins:: Margaret wishes she was your girlfriend... ::said teasingly as she continues getting dinner ready::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:37:22 PM)
Not anymore.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:38:21 PM)
::she blinks:: Why...oh. Is she okay?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:38:49 PM)
Oh, sure. I just made it clear our relationship should be of a dfferent sort.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:41:13 PM)
Oh, I thought you meant she didn't want to be with you because she got scared of your... real self...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:42:36 PM)
Hmmm... I don't think she would mind that, no.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:44:05 PM)
::she laughs:: Well... if something happens to me, you feel free to go pursue her and make her night.

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:45:50 PM)
Let's hope I never have to worry about that.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:49:02 PM)
We'll see... let's hope the killer doesn't get me. I like being alive.

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:49:24 PM)
That makes two of us then.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:49:57 PM)
::she laughs:: Thanks, mijo...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:51:41 PM)
*He chuckles* So, how can I help with dinner?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:54:56 PM)
((I think I need to go))

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:55:12 PM)
(you think? lol)

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:56:19 PM)
((Well, I have to, but not really feeling like going))

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:56:39 PM)
(laughs, so don't)

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:56:46 PM)
(I can amuse you all night long!)

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:57:42 PM)
((lol, ok))

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:57:53 PM)
((If I do disappear all of a sudden though... I passed out))

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 10:58:04 PM)
(okay hun)

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 10:58:15 PM)
((afk for a bit))

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:06:20 PM)
((back))

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:08:57 PM)
You can throw the chicken on the grill... I'm throwing potatoes in the oven and making salad. ::she moved around, efficiently, still biting her lower lip::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:09:22 PM)
Sure... *He starts working on that, then.*

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:10:57 PM)
::she finishes and grabs a beer, and one for Jeff, joining him on the little patio as she hands him one:: So... are there... lots of you guys?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:13:56 PM)
*He puts an arm around her* I should know the exact number, but I forgot... Of course, there's no way to know how many managed to escape... And how many found such a decent host as Jeff to keep all the anger away...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:14:06 PM)
But in short... Yes, we are not few.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:19:57 PM)
::she leaned against him and then she pauses:: It -is- like a prison, right? Jail? ::she then looks up to him:: Not all humans are bad, Jeff...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:20:55 PM)
Obviously not all are... And... it's more like nothing than a prison. You're surrounded by nothing... It's hard to describe. *But he shudders at the mere thought.*

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:23:04 PM)
::she looks to him:: Are you trapped with the others?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:24:29 PM)
I was.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:24:42 PM)
So... you at least have company?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:24:54 PM)
A bunch of demons.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:25:13 PM)
But, you aren't alone there...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:28:47 PM)
It's hard to explain Eva.

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:28:52 PM)
But it's like being alone.

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:28:56 PM)
Except in the bad times.

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:29:07 PM)
We're nothing there but the bad thoughts.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:29:26 PM)
::she looks to him:: What bad thoughts? Your.... your dark side? Is that what you mean?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:30:12 PM)
Pretty much all that was left after the war and an eternity of punishment, yes.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:32:42 PM)
Eternity.... are you exaggerating.. or... serious?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:35:14 PM)
Well, it's not eternity... But since just after the creation of the world sure feels like it.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:36:36 PM)
::she nods to him and then tilts her head:: So.... what... does nothingness look like?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:37:49 PM)
Well hun... Nothing, really.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:40:22 PM)
... ::she eyes him:: Like... light? Dark?

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:42:28 PM)
I don't have anything to compare this to, Jeff.

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:44:16 PM)
Like the absence of everything Eva, even light and dark, heat or cold, the absence of everything. You really have nothing to compare to it... Maybe sensory deprivation gets a little close, I think Jeff read somewhere some shrinks experiment with that... But I don't recommend you ever trying it.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:45:44 PM)
::she looks to him:: Why not? ::she frowns and leans against him closely, sipping her beer::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:46:55 PM)
It sucks, to put it mildly.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:47:48 PM)
::she laughs:: Yeah, mijo... that helps. ::rolling her eyes:;

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:49:50 PM)
Seriously... It's not only something you don't wanna find out - it was never meant for humans... It's possibly the worst thing that ever happened to me, so I'm not comfortable talking about it.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:53:35 PM)
::she nods and looks to him, looking genuinely contrite:: I'm sorry, mijo... I shouldnt' have made fun...

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:54:13 PM)
No worries...

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:55:34 PM)
So... you got hit twice. Jeff remembers jail... and you remember... Hell. I'm... I'm so sorry, Jeff. ::and for once the hard-edged girl leaned into him and she looked and sounded sorry, sorry that he'd had to go through that::

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:56:25 PM)
*He squeezes her more tightly to him and smiles* Well... Jeff's jail experience was actually one of the best things that happened to him.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:57:00 PM)
Because he didn't want it anymore... ?

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:57:04 PM)
He wanted to go straight?

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:57:24 PM)
(you around tomorrow so we can finish demon BG? I'm 3 questions from being done)

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:57:27 PM)
He never really wanted it.

Evangelina Rivera (Aug 25, 2011 11:57:33 PM)
Why did he go?

Jeff Pines (Aug 25, 2011 11:57:47 PM)
Best choice available, I think.
