Andy Gallo [PB 2]: He gives a shy smile down to the ground and gives his greasy mop another scratch. Boy looks like he hasn't bathed in weeks. "Umm.. I gotta go. Been fun and all." He looks back up to the group. "Nice meetin you guys. Good to know there are people in this city that DON'T despise me or creep me the fuck out in our first encounter."

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *Since apparently introductions are acceptable...* I am Kwan. *The Chinese man gives a faint bow to Luis.*

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He head-dips to Andy.* Good night.

Ntwadumela: Andy: "Don't worry, I'll creep you out eventually if we meet again."

Luis Ruiz: * He takes a quick glance at the woman and smiles slightly. * " And I am Luis. I would shake your hand but I am a little sweaty. So maybe next time? "

Andy Gallo [PB 2]: (annnd.. i wake up in 3 hours. *G* thanks for the scene, guys.)

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She raises an eyebrow at Andy's comment.* I expect you to at least TRY to get me some kind of flower the next time we meet. *She grins at him, then waves*

Kelsey Horn (PB3): ((*L* Thanks Andy! Sleep well!))

Ntwadumela: ((See you again soon.))

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: *The girl begins to walk back the way she came seeming a bit disturbed as she rubs her face*

Andy Gallo [PB 2]: He snickers at Mel. "Eventually is fine. People are inherently creepy. First encounters though.. that's just unnerving." He flashes another crooked grin to Kelsey. "If It means I get to meet up with you again.. I'll dig up some flowers. You hang out here a lot?"

Luis Ruiz: * He actualy returns the bow with a slightly lower one of his own. * " A pleasure. As I told the lady I am Luis. "

Luis Ruiz: {{ Night Andy-p }}

Ntwadumela: Kel: "see you around."

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: *The girl runs her hand through her hair as she moves by the group stoping a little ways out from them*

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: ((*Waves* Night, Andy-p! Good stuff!)) *He looks at Mel.* What is this, "Creep out"? *He smiles at Luis in acknowledgement.*

Andy Gallo [PB 2]: He looks over to Kristina, eyes widen slightly. Scared? Ehh.. maybe. He starts a roll away from the group, kicking off with a worn sneaker. Putting a rushjob on the leaving thing. "Ehh.. gotta skate. Seeya, guys." He waves and zips off.

Ntwadumela: Mel winks at Kristina.

Ntwadumela: Andy: "See ya, man."

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He watches Andy go.* He is quite skilled with his conveyance.

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: "Im not going to hurt you boy" *she yells off after him before shakeing her head and looking towards Kelsey*

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She laughs* That's fine. Good to meet you Luis. *She shakes her head at Andy* No, first time really. But I may just have to change that habit. *She grins at him*

Ntwadumela: "Bad vibes, strange feelings, something 'not right'"

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She blinks at Mel* You goin' somewhere? *She looks back towards Kristina.* Hmm?

Ntwadumela: ((Er.. I'm getting tired. Thought Kel was leaving too for some reason. Bleah))

Kelsey Horn (PB3): ((*L* Nope. She was just saying good bye to the one who was.))

Luis Ruiz: * He takes another look around and then takes a knee to tighten up one of his shoes. *

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He nods to Mel.* And you induce this feeling often?

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: The girl is out for an early morning walk. The brisk 50 degree weather doesn't seem to bother her much, as she walks along, a contrast in colors between her features and her clothes. Her posture is straight, chin held high...the stance coming from discipline rather then pride or nobility.

The girl is Somewhere in her mid-twenties, Annika stands at 5’7” before any heels or lifts come into play. She cuts an attractive frame if you’re in to the Aryan look – and how. Her hair is fine and straight, a pale blonde with several shades vying for attention. The highlights, entirely natural, are nearly white. Full lips, high cheekbones, strong bones, arched eyebrows laying serious and light over blue eyes that gleam with intelligence and clarity. Her skin is fair, all of its summer tan quick to fade under the slightest hint of approaching winter. Her hands are slim, nails a maintained oval. She walks like a woman that knows how to take care of herself, and her bright blue eyes, pale with the promise of a fresh autumn dawn, are almost always attentive. She’s dressed well but not richly in all black...boots, pants, and shirt...practical clothes fitted to her form.

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *Then he glances over at Kristina, and looks back to Kelsey.* You two have settled your grievance, yes?

Ntwadumela: Mel grins at Kwan: "It's not difficult for me."

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: *She gives a nod to Luis* "I would like to apologize for my actions and assure you that it is not a common occurance"

Luis Ruiz: * He lets his eyes drift to Kristina as the others begin to speak to her, then he gives her a slight wink but says nothing. Probably unsure of what is what in this group. *

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He tilts his head at Mel.* I had not noticed.

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: d10: Per+Alert: 5,6,3,6,8,

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: ((the spoken part was to kelsey))

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She nods at Kristina.* Alright, I accept that.

Ntwadumela: Kris: "Bad timing." Even if it was to Kelsey. Kwan: "I didn't say I always did it, but I can get creepy."

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: *She nods to her* "good, now I shall be on my way back to the shelter" *she says as she moves away from the group giveing another nod to Luis before leaveing*

Ntwadumela: Mel looks between Kris and Luis at the nods.

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: Her eyes drift over the small collected group...Lius, Mel, and Kwan get brief, dismissive looks, Kelsey and Kristina more serious glances. Her head tilts ever so slightly to the side as she coomes toward the group with that calm, confident poise.

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He nods as Kristina apologizes to Kel, but says nothing about it. Then he looks back at Mel.* Can you show me?

Ntwadumela: Kris: "Walk safely."

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: d10: Per+Garou Lore: 5,6,5,5,7,3,

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He looks at Kris.* Shelter? *He nods as Annika approaches, then looks to Mel.* Is this another of your friends?

Ntwadumela: Mel smiles at Kwan: "I don't show off. And I know you won't beleive me as a result." And that doesn't seem to bother him.

Luis Ruiz: * He stands up straight again and wipes the smile from his face before taking another look as Kristina walks away. * " Busy morning down here. " * Its said out loud and not to anyone in particular. *

Ntwadumela: "Met her at a gun show once." ((I think...))

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: *She stops and looks at Kwan* "I live at a womens shelter, what of it?"

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: Her stance as she approaches is proud but respectful of Kelsey, and of the departing Kristina. She nods to Kristina as she leaves, then looks to Kelsey, eyes hitting the other's face briefly before slipping down a bit. "Good evening, Miss."

Ntwadumela: Mel takes a small step toward Kris, tilting his head just a little. "English is not his first language, he meant no offense."

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: *She nods* "Then there is none taken" *she says as she continues off*

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She nods at Annika* Hello. *She looks at Kristina.* I think the man's new to town and doesn't know what you mean. *Forestalling another fight, hopefully*

Ntwadumela: And the tilt of his head does expose his throat to her, as some might notice.

Luis Ruiz: * The eyes dart back to Kristina as she speaks again, but the body remains relaxed. *

Ntwadumela: And he turns back to the others, shaking his head with a chuckle. "Love this town." And it definately seems a sincere statement.

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He tilts his head at Mel.* I did not think you were lying. I simply was hoping for a point of comparison. *Nods, then looks back at Kristina.* Ah, I see. Er... *He seems to be processing the colloquial 'what of it' question.* Ah, I simply did not understand the reference. There was no insult meant. *He gives her a bow, to show sincerity.*

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: Having been greeted by Kelsey, she then looks around to the other three. Lips purse, and she offers Luis, Mel, and Kwan brief nods in greeting.

Ntwadumela: Alex smiles at Annika. "Hello again."

Kristina Jaccobs [PB 1]: *Kristina moves out of the park and avoids everyone until makeing it to the shelter*

Luis Ruiz: * Luis is distracted at the moment and does not catch the nod. He watches the woman walk away. *

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He nods to Annika.* Hello. I am Kwan. *Gives a brief head-dip to her, as well.*

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She nods at Annika.* I'm Kelsey, *having realized she left that out.* ((Mel=Alex?))

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: ((Mel turned into Alex? Whoa, neat trick!!))

Ntwadumela: ((Bah. Mel Bleah))

Kelsey Horn (PB3): ((*giggles*))

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: ((*Snickers* I was wondering... *L*))

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: "Annika Brandt." Another bow of the head, directed primarily at Kelsey, though it serves to introduce her to all. Her body returns to it's straight, disciplined posture. "A pleasure."

Ntwadumela: Mel looks between Annika and Kel: "I take it you two have met already?"

Kelsey Horn (PB3): Indeed. *She smiles at Annika. She's much more relaxed than the other woman.*

Annika Brandt [PB 5] -> Luis Ruiz: ((Question for shu! You know the Limelight like no other...is it open at all during the day? Like, as club, or as a bar or cafe or anything? Or night as a club only?))

Kelsey Horn (PB3): ((*L* Mel's behind I think...))

Luis Ruiz: * He finaly returns his attention to the group, leting the grin return to his face. *

Ntwadumela: ((Only a little))

Annika Brandt [PB 5] -> Kelsey Horn (PB3): ((Kelsey may be familiar with the Brandt family name if she's from the Sentinel. It's a fairly large Fenrir family. 20 members, the head of the family is Annika & Tatiana (Annika's twin)'s 30-year-old brother Victor. Just so ya know. :) ))

Luis Ruiz -> Annika Brandt [PB 5]: {{ It is open 24 hours during the solistice and equinox, Samhein too. Might be leasable for special events. Otherwise I do not remember it being open during daylight. }}

Annika Brandt [PB 5] -> Luis Ruiz: ((Coolness...thanks.))

Kelsey Horn (PB3) -> Annika Brandt [PB 5]: Ahh...right. Okay. Kelsey's been in the Sept nearly two years. Having arrived as a frightened cub and left her mother who had kept her in the dark about her family until Kel had killed people in her first shift. She's been living in the Sept since but mostly keeping to her learning etc.

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She shakes her head at Mel's question* Know of her family but not met before.

Ntwadumela: Luis: "I'm going to have that paperwork done in a couple days. I'd have it in today, but had a little accident Doctor ordered some rest for a couple days."

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: "Not directly," she says in answer to Mel, her attention still on Kelsey for the moment. "But after a fashion, yes."

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He looks at Mel.* Paperwork?

Luis Ruiz: * He looks back to Mel and smiles. * " You dont need to keep me informed, mano. I dont make the call. "

Ntwadumela: Kwan: "Self defense school." Luis: "Small talk."

Ntwadumela: Though to Annika's statement, just a bit of a nod.

Kelsey Horn (PB3): Um, something on your mind? *She fidgets a bit, not used to being stared at like Annika is. Especially by important people.*

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: "Have you been...home, lately?" she asks of Kelsey.

Luis Ruiz: " Ah... sorry man but I am not very good with small talk when it comes to work. Its already like fourteen hours of my day. "

Kelsey Horn (PB3): Well, yeah, earlier today. Something wrong?

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He ndos to Mel.* I see. You are setting up a school of martial arts? *Listens idly to the women's conversation, as well.*

Ntwadumela: Luis: Mel grins. "Change the subject then."

Ntwadumela: "God no. Tried that. I teach as well as a brick to the head. I'm joining his as a student."

Luis Ruiz: * He shakes his head at Kwan. * " I think he is looking for instruction. "

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: Her lips press together tightly. "My sister and I have not been home since the...recent upheavals. I would be most interested to learn what is occurring."

Luis Ruiz: * He laughs.... * " A brick to the head can impart information quite well. Dont sell yourself short. "

Kelsey Horn (PB3): Oh, mmm, things seem pretty quiet right now. *She looks at the other people with them, then back at Annika.*

Luis Ruiz: * He glances to his watch and sighs. * " Speaking of which I had better get moving. Nice seeing you again Mel and nice meeting you all. "

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He nods to Mel and Luis.* Ah, I see. *He chuckles a bit* Many teachers seem to think a head-blow is a useful teaching tool. *Apparently Annika and Kelsey were neighbors growing up, or something, he notes.*

Luis Ruiz: * And with that he walks back to the path and then starts to run once more. *

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He nods to Luis.* Good evening.

Ntwadumela: "Alright man. I'll see you soon. To be honest, I should probably head back before Ziahl gets worried about me being out so long after my accident."

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: "Of course," she says with a slight nod to Kelsey. "We hope to make our way home soon, when our guardian travels there, after his wedding."

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She nods at Luis.* Night. *She looks over towards Mel* Accident?

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He bows to Mel.* It was a great pleasure talking with you.

Kelsey Horn (PB3): Annika: You'll be welcomed back, I'm sure.

Ntwadumela: Kwan: "Definately. And don't worry, the slang comes soon enough." Kel: "Ask around. I'm sure my misadventures are known at this point."

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: A brief smile at Kelsey's words, and a nod. She reaches up to curl a lock of pale hair behind an ear.

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He nods to Mel.* Most of it comes through from context.

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She chews her lip a little.* Right, night then Mel. *She looks at Annika* I don't suppose you have a car?

Ntwadumela: Mel starts to walk away, rubbing his sore chest a little.

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: She raises a pale brow to Kelsey. "I am...no. I have not learned how to operate one."

Ntwadumela: Mel slows down when he hears that. "You ladies need a lift somewhere?"

Kelsey Horn (PB3): Oh well. So how long before you think you'll be back?

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He waves to Mel, and glances at the ladies.* I suspect I should depart as well, so that you both may speak more freely. *He smiles and gives them a bow.* It was a pleasure meeting both of you.

Kelsey Horn (PB3): Uh...well. I'm not sure you'll want to be driving all the way up to Lake Placid.

Kwan Lo [Playtesting]: *He tilts his head at Kel.* That is 'home', then?

Kelsey Horn (PB3): *She blinks and gives Kwan a small bow. Her cheeks getting a little pink. Damn. She was TRYING to be subtle.*

Ntwadumela: Mel thinks about it. "Sure. No problem. Need to reserve a campsite anyway."

Annika Brandt [PB 5]: "It should be soon," she says with a simple lift and fall of her shoulders. Maybe a hint of hopefulness in her face. "As soon as Mr. Urgahaldt is ready, I imagine."
