20th Song [AccidentalVideo]

[Now that the never ending day has come to a close, Rip has been having fun enjoying the night. This night, she's wandering some of the buildings with her hell cat draped over her shoulders.  The Huntress has even managed to scare up an old winter coat that looks like it had seen better days. Unfortunately the coat seems to be a few sizes too small so it hugs her form almost like a second skin. Not that she cares.

Rip is looking through the various buildings, humming a Christmas carol as she searches for... gifts. This was the one holiday that was celebrated more than even Halloween and Rip was very, very determined to enjoy it. That... and it's been over 50 years since she's had a white Christmas.

As for who she was giving gifts to? Well that was going to remain a secret. True, she couldn't celebrate the holiday  in some of the more traditional ways that she was used to, but she was going to make the best of it!

Eventually she pauses and digs something out of the rubble. It looks... like a broken Pocket Watch. She fiddles with it for a few moments before reaching up to scratch her cat's ears.]


"Vat do you zhink Hadewig? I am sure ve can find zomeone to fix it up."

[The Yodare gives a soft mewl and buts her head against her Mistress's cheek, making the vampire grin a little as she scratches the gray cats head.]


"You are right~ ve just need to ask! But first... lets zee vat else ve can find."

[Neither one of them seems to notice that PCD is even on.. or that it even fell out of Rip's pocket.]

Y'might ask a young lady named Winry Rockbell, she's 'bout th'best person t'ask t'fix something.

[Then again Jean hasn't had the heart to check to see if she's still in Adstringendum. He's long ago stopped bothering to check for things like that.]

[It takes a few moments before there's the sound of her fum fumbling with the device.]

Halo Jean~. I vill haf to look her up zhen.

[There's a momentary pause before she speaks again.]

I hope zhe never ending day vas not az big of a problem az it vas for me.

If you want, we can get together sometime!

[Jean's voice wears a smile in it, that means he caught her by surprise maybe. That's fine by him.]

Sure, let'er know that it was me who sent ya. ...If she remembers me in this incarnation, if she doesn't tell her t'ask Ed if she needs credentials.

[He listens, quietly of course while she speaks. It doesn't dawn on him why it would have been a problem.]

Nupe, no problems here, I just shut up th'house n' wandered into th'basement any time I needed me some non-sun time. Last thing I need is sunburn right?

Re: [Voice]

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 09:34 am (UTC)(link)
I vill remember zhat~. Hopefully it vill help~.

[There's the sound of faint purring from Hadewig as Rip chuckles a little.]

I zpent most of zhe veek in my house az vell, hiding under my blankets. My zkin is very.. delicate. I cannot be out in zhe sun vithout heavy protection.

[Voice]

[identity profile] 2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 09:59 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, hopefully.

[Again there's a smile in Jean's voice to that purring. That frigging cat almost took his face off more than a couple times, but she has it purring.]

Huh, now that I didn't know about y'Rip. ..Guess y'learn lots about people y'don't know that well!

Re: [Voice]

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 10:16 am (UTC)(link)
Ja~ All one haz to do iz ask zhe right questions and listen!

[Of course she has the cat purring. Hadewig knows Rip's the bigger monster. Not that it shows of course~. Besides, her fingers were heavily chewed on in the beginning.]

Vhy do you think I am zo pale~? I haf been like zhis for quite zome time.

[Of course, that could be taken several ways. She's referring to being a vampire. But~, she could also be referring to some sort of skin disorder as well. Ambiguity is a wonderful thing.]

[Voice]

[identity profile] 2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 10:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Listening he could do, comprehending? Well ... yeah he could understand underlying things, but it doesn't seem like he has to just talking to her at least. It wasn't a military operation, it wasn't something he was used to hearing- so here he sits with his PCD in his hand talking to her still.]

Well if y'asked me honestly that question, I'd say it's just part'a how pretty y'are.

[Shut up, he's no good with this pickup line stuff. Plus, he's trying to at least sound less than stupid- not that he's succeeding.]

Re: [Voice]

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 10:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Now that makes her chuckle a little. Yes, she realizes it's a pick up like and a slightly silly one at that, but, it's endearing in it's own way. Even to a monster like her.]

Vhy Jean~, zhat iz nice of you to notice~. You are razher handsome yourself~.

[Voice]

[identity profile] 2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 10:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Jean doesn't even realize how lame it is, so for her to encourage it like that, yeah she's not helping. But at least she didn't call him on it and embarrass him.

There's a surprised silence and awkward clearing of the throat, his voice laced with a shy smile.]

Awh c'mon now, no teasin' th'poor guy on th'other end hm?

Re: [Voice]

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 11:08 am (UTC)(link)
Und vy vould I be teasing~. You zell yourzelf short Jean.

[Of course, you can practically hear the smirk in her voice. Yes, she found him physically attractive and he was rather good in bed~. That and it wasn't often she actually got to flirt so~ she was taking advantage of this.

Besides, something needed to take her mind off of Zamiel.]

[identity profile] crux-ofmylife.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 01:02 pm (UTC)(link)
It's nice to meet you.

I 'spect I remind you of James Potter. He's my dad.

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[She blinks and peers a little closer.]

Is zhat zo? Zhen I suppose you know Zirus und Remus as vell? Ve had an .. unfortunate first meeting. I am afraid I vas not at my best ven I first arrived.

[identity profile] crux-ofmylife.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, Sirius is my godfather and Remus made, well... will make... me the godfather of his son. They really are great guys.

[He looks curious.] May I ask what happened?

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah~! Zhen you all are family. Zhat... makes zense.

[She shrugs a little.]

I vas confused und he smelt like mein Captain~. Blood loss does zhat to a voman.

Zhough~, zhe volf really needs to accept vat he iz. It makes zhings easier.

[identity profile] crux-ofmylife.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, we are.

Ah. Oh. That. It's not something that's really accepted in our world. [A pause.] You could... just smell that?

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Harry, you vill find zhat not all vorlds hold zhe same views~ und not everyone iz human.

But yes, I could. It vas zomething familiar to me from home.

[identity profile] crux-ofmylife.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm finding that.

So your Captain... he's a werewolf? And... and I take it you're not human, either...?

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. He vas zhe last of zhem in my vorld. You vould also be right about me as vell~. I am a vampire, one of zhe proud zoldiers of Millennium~. Ve vere in a var before I vound up here... und vell, zhere iz no var here.

Zo vat iz a poor zolier to do~?

[identity profile] crux-ofmylife.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[He smiles a bit.] I don't think I've met a vampire before. It's always possible. Lots of different people at Hog's Head... that's a bar.

No, there's not. There was war in my world when I left, too.

Well... I plan on enjoying my time away from it.

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
It iz quite possible if ve exist in your vorld~. Vho knows! Zhere are very few of us here right now but zhe numbers are slowly growing.

Zhen you are fortunate to arrive here! I find myzelf... at odds vith out zomething to do. But~, I vill make due az going home vould mean my death.

[identity profile] crux-ofmylife.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
From what I've been taught, vampires do exist in my world. They're... less liked than werewolves, I think.

[He understands that, even if he won't admit it. From what he knows, he's got all of five minutes left of living once he gets back home.]

Yeah, sometimes, there's not a lot to do. But... for right now, it's a good change. I'll probably be bored in a month, but... [He shrugs. He'll still be alive in a month and here, with his parents.] I suppose I'll find a way to make due.

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Zhat vould be fun~. I zimply vould love to take every chance I can to zing.

Zo~! Ven ever you are free~. Zhough, I vould prefer it to be at night. I am never free during zhe day.

[identity profile] huntressrip.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Less liked zhan verevolves? No vonder your family did not like me!

[Well, there's much, much more to that story.But, for now she's just going to act surprised. Mostly, because she finds this boy much more pleasant to talk to that the others. Which... surprises her.]

Zhen you just need to find zhings to keep yourzelf entertained~! I hunt to keep myzelf busy.
