Josie goes to Cameron’s to see if he’ll help her out of her crisis by purchasing her house from her in case she loses the civil law suit in regards to the black out.
<Josie_Lyons> RPG Go!
<Cameron_Parkyn> ((<Dave>… Tis is really going to throw a pipe into the works of me asking you to marry me ¬¬ Just don’t get a criminal record… hide behind an alias))
<Josie_Lyons> ((LOL! Well if she’s out and about as her demon self, she won’t be as recognizable. XD))
<Cameron_Parkyn> ((<Cam> … and does she wear a typical Demon outfit? <Dave> You get outta here! I am freaking out here… how can I have a church wedding with a demon?!))
<Cameron_Parkyn> ((She could give Dave the deed to their house… Or Cam… that way if she is sued they can’t posseess the house))
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Josie> I’m not a typical demon. I’m ice based, not some kind of succubus. Besides, CAMERON, you have a girl. Why are you getting all excited?))
<Josie_Lyons> ((LOL she’ll have to talk with Dave about that sometime.))
<Cameron_Parkyn> ((<Cam> I got a galfriend but I ain’t dead ::grins:: So if ya icy, that mean you got a furtrim bikini?))
<Cameron_Parkyn> ((Might I suggest she signs it to Cam… he won’t tell Dave))
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Josie> NO. ::glares at Cam:: XD))
<Josie_Lyons> ::but Dave lives there XD was planning on sharing it with him someday lol mebbe Josie goes to talk with Cam first about her delimma?::
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::hey just tell me you need a deed holder for a little while, I’ll be fine with it… although pity all ya savings are gonna get wiped out like that X3…. but you need a costume::
<Josie_Lyons> ::well I will pay you a visit! -g-::
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::I’ll even supply a costume X3::
<Josie_Lyons> ::will not wear a costume! XDDD prolly should -g- arrives at Cam’s place, buzzing his buzzer several times. has the ring on, gloves over it though. still in uniform.::
<Josie_Lyons> ::looks normal though, s’only in a reflection that you can see her true self, so mirror or water or glass would give her away. she not thinking about that right now::
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::yawns and walks over to the intercom, scratching his chest as he is just waking up the lazy bum ^^ turns on the view screen:: Yo? ::never took his mask off last night::
<Josie_Lyons> H-hey… are you busy? I need to speak with you, it’s urgent. ::worried expression and tone of voice. glances ’round a couple of times::
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::notes the look:: Get in ::okays the lift and leaves the intercom to lock the spareroom door::
<Josie_Lyons> ::steps into the lift when it arrives and rides it up to his place. pacing inside as it goes, rubbing her right hand ring finger with her other hand some. exits when it opens up to his place:: Sorry for waking you, Cameron… ::says as she steps out:: but I… well I’m in a bit of a spot… oh really that’s not even describing it… I’m in near ruins!
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::looks over his shoulder at her… swishes his tail… a very confused look on his face:: What?! You?! Little miss Smart saver? ::knows the term ruin X3::
<Josie_Lyons> Don’t be a smart alec! I’m perfectly serious! ::shows him the letter regarding the law suits and their total. is to go to court end of next week::
<Josie_Lyons> They’re blaming me for everything! For their losses during that blasted blackout! There’s no way I can ever hope to pay for this and I doubt I’ll win such a thing.
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::blinks… continue as I read over it:: 20 mill! Where do they fink you’d get $20 million from?! Ya a civil servant!… … you want money?
<Josie_Lyons> NO. No I don’t want money… I can deal with them clearing my bank account and whatever they take from me thereafter but the one thing I cannot lose is my house. My brother helped me buy that house and Dave is living there with me. I can’t let them have it. So… I… I was wondering… if maybe I could sign the deed over to you?
<Cameron_Parkyn>… ::blinks and strokes his chin:: you want me ta own ya ‘ome… till what time you get back on ya feet? Why not sign it ta Dave?…. or does ‘e not know? ::raises a brow… knows Josie likes secrets::
<Josie_Lyons> ::looks away from him at that, runs fingers through her hair:: I… I haven’t told him about this yet… And… if I signed it over to him, I’d still loose it seeing as I live there and all and… it’s just a big mess. ::walks over to sit on the sofa:: I figure if a third party owned the home, someone that they don’t know I have any sort of relationship with, that maybe that will keep it safe.
<Cameron_Parkyn>… What’s the ‘ouse worth?… less I pay for it legal like, it’s likely they’ll try ta pull sumfin’
<Josie_Lyons> Junior bought it at about $100,000. I’ve done some updating but it’s still probably around that much.
<Josie_Lyons> He got it for me and finished paying for our parents house when he made it big and signed that multi million dollar contract with the San DeGato basketball team. My other brother Marcus wouldn’t let him buy him a home and Brandon still travels around when not in school.
<Cameron_Parkyn> … I’ll write a check… I’ll be ya offical landlord and charge a dollar a week ::starts over towards his safe::
<Josie_Lyons> ::sniffles a bit but laughs some at that, wiping her eyes:: So… you don’t mind? ::looks ’round to where he is::
<Cameron_Parkyn>… … … ::waves a wall panel where his booze hiding place used to be…. but now he just leaves it on the counter X3 goes to open the safe and pulls out his legal stuff and his checkbook:: Still gonna ‘elp ya out the $100,000 too…
<Josie_Lyons> ::stands and goes over to where he is:: I really appreciate this, Cameron. If by some miracle I can get out of this, I’ll pay you back. Say… maybe you can give me the number to one of your lawyers? They’ve gotten you out of trouble all these years, maybe they’ll be good enough to assist me in this case to prove I’m not responsible and don’t owe these kats anything.
<Cameron_Parkyn>… You can bet you’ll pay me back ::chuckles:: From now on ya always wear a bikini when ya round ‘ere :: smiles at her:: Joise, I can’t ask ya ta pay be back this much… so ya gonna get the ‘ouse back… saaaaaay as a weddin’ present when Dave finally asks the question ::swishes his tail:: As for lawyers… Draven really costs a lot… you’ll be ‘ard pushed ta get anyone more likely ta get ya off tho, she is worth every penny
<Josie_Lyons> I have enough to pay for lawyers. I saved nearly a million from my year’s work in the NSA. ::grins:: The position paid well. Give them even less to take should things go sour… ::grin fades and she leans over to hug Cameron:: I just wish things like this would quit happening to me… It’s like it never ends… I just want to get rid of them all. ::voice a bit dark. she’s a bit cool as well when she hugs him::
<Cameron_Parkyn>… ::holds her and goes to stroak her hair:: Luv… these fings are sent ta try us… besides, you believe in ya law… Ya gotta take the good with the bad
<Josie_Lyons> … I’m starting not to believe in it anymore… whether or not I follow the rules set… I still end up getting a raw deal.
<Cameron_Parkyn>… Luv… you devoted ya life ta keep the law… Don’t let all that go down the pan cause of this. We gotta take the ‘igh ground else we no better than the scum ya fight. … And why aren’t ya in a bikini yet? ::chuckles trying to lighten the mood::
<Josie_Lyons> It’s not just THIS Cameron… ::not smiling at the bikini remark lol she not in joking mood. pushes away from him:: It’s everything! I accidentally destroyed Lt. Commander Steele’s sedan and I get kicked off the force despite it being an accident, despite me telling him I wasn’t able to properly pilot a tank. I go to the MBI and I get nothing but guff and have to deal with a bunch of kats who dont’ deserve to have badges. Then when I get promoted to director of the NSA, forces within cause me to fall harder than ever despite me trying to reform the organization some. Now because of some dead kat traitor, I’m going to lose what little I have left! ::back to him, holding herself some, tail swishing:: Sometimes I just want to … to… destroy them all and be the horrible kat everyone thinks I am already!
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::goes to grab her by the arms:: Josie… Not everyone finks ya a ‘orrible kat… Do I, ya family, Dave count in everyone?! Destoryin’ sumone else is sumfin’ that makes them right and you wrong! Ya really wanna let them win?
<Josie_Lyons> ::glares at him:: *I* want to win for once!
<Josie_Lyons> There’s no change, nothing I do matters! Crime runs rampant in this city and always will! If I had the power to, I’d clean things up once and for all!
<Cameron_Parkyn>… ::frowns:: And what if I did that? Josie? I’ve seen me rents died in front of me and the enforcers screwed me worse than anyone… I still believe in the law even if I don’t believe in the law keepers…. I still believe in freedom… I don’t believe in forcin’ others ta do as I say… Power is only ever short term…
<Josie_Lyons> Not always… it just depends on who has it and how they use it… ::getting bad ideas now lol::
<Cameron_Parkyn>… Josie ::worried face, goes to hold her hands:: Please… I’ll stand by ya… but… only you… not the woman finkin’ this fings ya sayin’… cause this can’t be you
<Josie_Lyons> ::looks down at his hands holding hers:: Maybe you just don’t know me like you think you do.
<Cameron_Parkyn>… Or maybe ya just in a dark place at the moment and can’t see ya own refection in a mirror ::means that as a metaphor::
<Josie_Lyons> ::laughs a bit at that and looks up at him:: Oh you’ve no idea how true that is… ::shakes her head, giving his hands a bit of a squeeze before letting them go:: I’ll come back later for the paperwork… let’s hope it won’t be necessary.
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::just stands there:: Remember Josie… there is always a lifeline ‘ere if ya need it
<Josie_Lyons> ::opens the lift:: I know there is… and I appreciate that. The same will always go for me. ::soft smile at him as the doors close. will need to explain all of this to Dave… ::
<Cameron_Parkyn> ::watches her go::
<Josie_Lyons> ::lol in case it is in the papers, she’ll at least need to let him know. though maybe she won’t get the nerve, wait until for sure the papers have the story XD just see how he’s doing and all::
<Cameron_Parkyn> ((Sure ^^ now what?))
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Josie_Lyons> MARRY ME DAVE! ::says all creepy scary assa demoness:: <Dave> ::downs bottle of whiskey and passes out:: ))
<Cameron_Parkyn> ((LOL))
