Sept. 5th: The Night People

by **Winifred Winters** » Mon Oct 20, 2014 11:52 pm

It was late, but instead of going home like a good girl, Winn was leading Veronica into trouble.

"Don't get freaked out when we get there," Winn tells her. "These people are more scared of us then we are of them."

"Wait what do you mean?" She was a bit leery about this, and it was obvious.

by **Winifred Winters** » Tue Oct 21, 2014 12:06 pm

Winn just smirks as they approach the bar. It's a classic dirty dive bar, English-style, with a worn sign proclaiming it to be "Fiddler's Green". There are a few mean-looking thugs hanging around outside and Veronica can hear loud music and shouts concerning football games coming from inside.

"Well...zis is...a nice place..." She says with as much of a smile as she can muster. Crossing her arms a bit, she sticks closer to Winn, whispering to her. "Are you sure zis is a good idea?"

by **Winifred Winters** » Wed Oct 22, 2014 10:24 am

"It's a great idea," Winn says. "These are the best places to drink."

"...You've had your hepatitis booster, right?"

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Oct 22, 2014 5:58 pm

"...." She blinks a few times at Winn. "Uh..."

by **Winifred Winters** » Wed Oct 22, 2014 8:37 pm

"I'm kidding," Winn says. She puts her arm around Veronica's shoulder and begins guiding her to the door. "Come on."

Things didn't look much better from the inside. The floors were dirty. The glasses were dirty. The patrons were dirty. It was generally a dirty place. A few rough-looking people glare at Winn as she walked with Veronica up to the bar.

"Yo! Two ales," Winn says, tossing some money on the bar.

The bartender eyes her warily, but takes the money and returns with two drinks.

"Cheers," Winn says, handing Veronica one.

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Oct 22, 2014 8:43 pm

Her eyes kept averted from the patrons of the bar, her demeanor was to look at small and unimportant as possible. This was a common tactic for her in rough places like this. They're like t-rexes, right? If you don't move, they won't see you. When she gets the ale she raises it up, clinking it to Winn's. "Cheers." She takes no time to look at the cleanliness of the glass. Dirtiness didn't seem to bother her, apparently.

by **Winifred Winters** » Wed Oct 22, 2014 8:46 pm

"Let's find a table," Winn says, leading Veronica away from the bar.

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Oct 22, 2014 8:56 pm

"Off course." She follows Winn taking a swig again from the ale. Not bad.

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 12:33 am

Winn takes a seat at a booth next to a window, taking a long drink from her ale. She sighs happily, "That's much better."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 12:38 am

"You come to zis place often zen?" She takes a seat as well, taking a glance at the patrons for a few moments to see their demeanor again.

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 12:50 am

Most of the patrons were going about their night, not even taking any notice of the two. They were watching the television, drinking, talking, and at least one obvious drug deal was going down.

There were a few people that seem to be pointedly ignoring Winn. But that probably wasn't anything important.

"A bit," Winn says. "It's good for this and that."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 1:04 am

She looks back to Winn and smiles. "Eet reminds me somewhat off a few off zee bars down in Nice. Zee more quiet ones around zee Promenade." Taking another swig, she relaxes back against the booth.

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 1:06 am

"Wherzzat?" Winn asks.

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 1:12 am

"In France, along zee shoreline. Zee Promenade is zee long road that trails zee shore. Eet has many shops, restaurants, clubs...in zee darker alleys are places like zis. Eet can be very rough at night, but if you know what you are doing and how to stay safe, eet isn't bad at all." She smiles.

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 1:17 am

Winn lights a cigarette, "Well, that doesn't sound fun at all then."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 1:28 am

"Eet isn't so bad." She gives a bit of a shrug. "Could haf been worse, I assure you." She chuckles. "What about you? Where are you from?"

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 1:34 am

"The states," Winn says. "Here and thereabouts. I moved around a lot as a kid."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 1:36 am

"How bad is eet zere? As far as zee registration goes."

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 1:56 pm

"Pretty bad. There's a lot of 'forcible registration'," Winn says. "Plenty of mutants in prison too."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 3:05 pm

"How did you manage to make it all zee way over here?"

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 3:55 pm

"Not having a permanent address helped a lot," Winn says. "Other then that..."

Winn shrugs, "Just a matter of being careful."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 5:23 pm

She gives a nod. "Are you in zee high school here or zee Univeristy?"

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 8:23 pm

"High school. Graduating senior," WInn says.

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 8:25 pm

"Excited to graduate?"

by **Winifred Winters** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 8:35 pm

"Of course," Winn says in a mocking tone. "It'll be like a new chapter of my life is starting!"

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Oct 23, 2014 9:17 pm

She smirks and finishes off her ale. "Your ensusiasum is dripping."

by **Winifred Winters** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 1:15 am

Winn rolls her eyes, "The only reason I'm at school is my only other option is Muir. And that sounds even worse."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 1:16 am

"Muir?" She tilts her head as she asks. Apparently she had never heard of that place before.

by **Winifred Winters** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 2:18 am

"It's where they send the really fucked up mutants," Winn says. "The hopeless cases."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 2:21 am

"What do zey do wis zem?"

by **Winifred Winters** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 10:33 am

"It's a hospital, so I assume they treat them," Winn says. "But I dunno. I guess they could put 'em down."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 3:47 pm

She cringes a bit. "I was just wondering how eet was they would treat zem. Being stuck in a hospital for so long must be very deeficult. Especially if one is fully aware zey will be zere for zee long run." She shakes her head. "My apologies. We should talk about somesing less depressing, non?"

by **Winifred Winters** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 6:11 pm

"Sure," Winn says. "Do you have your eye on anyone on campus yet?"

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 6:26 pm

She stands from the seat. "Even if I did, I am unsure eet would matter. Simple girl wis nosing special about zem and terrified off touch." Motioning to Winns glass, she asks, "Are you ready for anoser?"

by **Winifred Winters** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 6:28 pm

"Abso-fucking-lutely," Winn says.

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 7:02 pm

After picking up Winns glass she makes her way over to the counter. She keeps her eyes low as per her normal, then smiles to the bartender before asking for two more, placing the money down with a nice tip.

by **Winifred Winters** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 7:26 pm

When she returns the table, Winn smiles at her. She already has another cigarette lit and is blowing a cloud of smoke into the air.

"You shouldn't be so hard on yourself anyway," Winn says. "There's plenty special about you. Plus, you're not a half bad kisser."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Oct 24, 2014 7:35 pm

Setting the refilled ale in front of Winn her cheeks flush a bit. "Sank you for zee compliment. Mais, I was not really expecting zee kiss to begin wis..." She says a bit sheepishly.
