Tansy takes Tessie out to a dance club to help her friend meet some boys. Unfortunately the two toms they meet aren’t so great but they get help dealing with them from Gargoyle.
<Tansy> 1, 2, 3, 4 get your hero, on the floor.
<Tansy> ::yes that was an official start hahahah!::
<Tessie_Reed> ::Takes me to a club, oh winged one! daddy won’t take me. ;_; ::
<Tansy> ::I is! made herself grow to 5′ as it’s easier to dance when you’re taller. XD wearing some sparkly short sleeveless dress and matching platform shoes. hair all down and long. wings hidden. lied to Greenbox saying they were going out for icecream! well didn’t like. just neglected to mention they would be going clubbing first ;D::
<Tansy> ((didn’t lie^))
<Tessie_Reed> ::Shamey! Issa in a nice long red skirt and white blouse with matching red shoes. :: You are sure dad will not find out about this? ::Shamey! she’s hiding things from daddy!::
<Tansy> Only if you tell him! ::reaches club! it’s near the “bad part of town” lol so trouble can occur sometimes. Tansy doesn’t get these things as she’s ditzy and in her own world half the time. -g- goes inside and music is thumping, lights changing colors and moving, kats a dancing::
<Tessie_Reed> Oh..yes..must not tell him. ::smiles, then goes in and blinks:: wow…
<Tansy> It’s great isn’t it? C’mon let’s go dance! ::pulls her along to a lit up dance floor::
<Tessie_Reed> ::is pulled! going out to said dance floor!:: But..I do not know how to dance like this!
<Tansy> Just feel the rythm! Watch the others! Or you can always cheat and do that download thing you cyberkats do. ::winks ‘n giggles as she dances to the music::
<Tessie_Reed> ::Smiles:: I do not know if this style of dance is easilly downloaded. ::will definitly try to find some videos though and download! watching others too and will try moving around some.::
<Gargoyle> ::likes patrolling the bad parts of town, when you hit the thugs here you feel nothing as they’d feel nothing when hitting you. And now I’m in a relationship I very rarely get to go to the more fun clubs anymore ;_;::
<Tansy> ::giggles:: Not so stiffly, relax! ::prolly some technotronic stuff -g- shows her a few moves and the like ’till she gets the hang of it::
<Tansy> ((LOL they’re a couple of viggies, they should go to one together as civillians XD))
<Gargoyle> ::sits down on the ledge of a building for a break from running, jumping and gliding… wishes he had space to install a eatting and drinking slot in his helmet, but you can’t have every thing::
<Gargoyle> ((Cam doesn’t trust himself not to ask other shekats to dance with him… to used to doing so as FF X3))
<Tessie_Reed> ::nods:: Okay…::trying! lol! is loosening up a bit but still not experienced::
<Gargoyle> <Barman> ::wearing jeans and a blue Tshirt with a nametag… you gals want anything?::
<Tansy> There you go! C’mon, let’s take a break and have something to drink with liquor! ::merrily skips to the bar XD::
<Tessie_Reed> ::blinks. stopping and going with her:: is that wise? Dad says liquor is bad. ::going with though!::
<Tansy> If you drink too much it is. ::sits down at one of the stools and asks for some fruity drink or another::
<Gargoyle> <Barman> ::looks over to the two girls:: … you girls got ID?
<Tessie_Reed> ::sits down by her!:: Um..I will have what she is having then.
<Tansy> <couple of toms> ::at the bar grin at the two ladies::
<Gargoyle> ::scratch that::
<Tansy> You serve me all the time here! ;_; At least the other guy does…
<Tessie_Reed> ::then smiles:: I do! ::pulls out some id yesh! has her mbi ID! Not the badge but an ID card since she dont drive::
<Tansy> ::pulls out a card she got from somewhere or another lol says her name is Tansilla McLovin XDDD::
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIIIIES McLovin!::))
<Tansy> ::and she’s 23 years old it says XD is more like 200 + but y’know::
<Tessie_Reed> ::her’s says she’s like 22 or so but is really about…three XD::
<Gargoyle> <Barman> ::looks at the ids… sighs and pours the drinks… makes them doubles as it’s Doubles night:: Here we go ladies
<Tessie_Reed> Thank you. ::takes it! sips on it a bit and grins:: This is good.
<Tansy> Thank you! ::about to pay when:: <guy1> Let us get those for you, ladies. ::grins. issa white tiger lookin’ tom:: <guy 2> Yeah, even though it’s not ladies night, we’re making it ladies night. ::issa lion lookin’ tom. both in jeans and leather jackets::
<Tansy> Oh sure thing! ::grins, rarely has to pay for her own drink:: <guys> ::hand the tender the tender. -g-::
<Tessie_Reed> ((<Tessie> oooo are you Josie’s rich famous twin brother?! <Tom> Uh…..nope…:::hides! doesn’t want Josie to know. XD))
<Gargoyle> <Barman>… … ::takes the money… isall good::
<Tansy> ((::snorks!::))
<Tessie_Reed> ::smiles:: Thank you. That is very nice.
<Gargoyle> ((LOL!!!))
<Tansy> <guy1> You’re most welcome. My name’s Ben, and this is Leo. ::original huh? XD:: <guy2> ::waves. sits on other side of Tansy:: <Ben> ::sits on other side of Tess:: <Tansy> My name is Tansy, and this is Tessie!
<Tessie_Reed> ::smiles over at Ben:: Hi. Nice to meet you.
<Gargoyle> <Cam> ::with these sorta toms as me compertision, it’s no wonder I got so many girlfriends::
<Tansy> <Ben> So you ladies come here often? ::lol Cam XD::
<Tansy> All the time! Well me anyway. Tessie’s new.
<Tessie_Reed> Er..no. This is my first time. ::nodding to what Tansy said::
<Gargoyle> ((brb gotta make tea))
<Tansy> ((ok!))
<Tessie_Reed> ((Okies!))
<Tansy> <Leo> Well it’s a pretty cool club. You guys maybe want to dance after you finish your drinks? <Tansy> I’d love to!
<Tessie_Reed> Sure. Though I am not all that good I must warn.
<Tansy> <Leo> He’s not either. ::snickers:: <Ben> Shaddup. <Tansy> ::sluuuuuuurps up the rest of her drink:: C’mon let’s go! ::grabs Leo’s hand and tugs him out to the floor, smiling back at Tessie::
<Tessie_Reed> :watching her go. will sip up the last of hers and gets up:: Okay. I am done. We can dance now. ::grins::
<Tansy> <Ben> Great! ::leads her out to the dance floor and starts dancing. isn’t too great but decent enough to pick up chicks XD::
<Tessie_Reed> ::lol! well thats okay cause she’s not all that great either! does like this though! so dances with him!::
<Tansy> <Ben> So what do you do normally for fun?
<Tessie_Reed> Um…eat ice cream, watch cartoons, play on the computer….::grins. Is such a geek. lol!::
<Tansy> <Ben> ::snickers, an innocent one >_>:: Well that sounds a bit lonely to me.
<Tessie_Reed> ::shrugs;: I have friends. And my dad. It is lonely sometimes, but not always. ::smiling. lol! yes…too innocent::
<Gargoyle> <Barman> ::is back on duty if anymore alcohol be needed::
<Tessie_Reed> ((WB!))
<Tansy> <Ben> Got any boyfriends? <Tansy> ::dances s’more but wants another drink XD goes with Leo to get another drink which Leo pays for::
<Gargoyle> ((TY))
<Tansy> ((wb!))
<Tessie_Reed> Er..no. No boyfriends.
<Gargoyle> ((<Tran> ::Pouts:: But I put my hand up))
<Tessie_Reed> ((::patspats Tran::))
<Gargoyle> <Barman> ::gets the glasses read for Ben and Tansy when he sees them aproching::
<Tansy> ((LOL!))
<Tansy> <Ben> That’s good… ::grins lol perhaps fwee an hour or so’s time?::
<Gargoyle> ((<Tran> ::hard to pout with lizard lips ¬¬ but at least he has transforming powers:: ))
<Gargoyle> ::has fallen asleep::
<Tessie_Reed> ;;shuas! danced it up, and had fun! more drinks and such too! so is ready to go home after a while!::
<Gargoyle> ::YAY drunken 3 year old superkat… what could go wrong? -_-’ ::
<Tansy> <Ben> Let us walk you out, ladies… ::he ‘n Leo with BAD THOUGHTS walk the two girls out:: <Tansy> ::all totally giggly, well moreso than usual XD leaning against Leo, hiccups. with each hiccup a bit of wind knocks something over -g-::
<Tessie_Reed> Okay. ::will walk out with Ben! her body probably processes liquor a bit differently than some. so probably externally isn’t all that affected but probably her computerized brain isn’t functioning at normal so maybe is why she won’t be able to do her energy balls later on to protect them!::
<Tansy> <thunderclap> ::sounds in the distance:: <Ben> Sounds like rain. You ladies need a ride home? ::puts arm ’round Tessie’s waist::
<Tessie_Reed> ::glances up at the sky then back to Ben:: No. we do not live far. We can make it there quickly. ::looks over to Tansy:: I can take her. ::plans to get out of sight and zap them home. ::
<Gargoyle> ::is woken as a trashcan is knocked over then X3:: ‘uh? ::sits up and stretches… standing up he looks at his internal clock and than at the streets:: … isn’t that … that electro kat? ::seeing tessie… sighs and feels he should follow just to be sure::
<Tansy> <Ben> Nah, I insist! We can’t let you two get all wet. <Leo> Tansy here is a bit too wasted to walk I think. <Tansy> ::giggles:: I didn’t waste any of my drink! ::hiccup:: <wind> ::whooshs knocks another trashcan over::
<Tessie_Reed> We’ll be fine. Thank you though. ::will shrug away from ben to go help Tansy:: she is light. I can take care of her. Thank you both for the lovely evening though. We really enjoyed it.
<Tansy> <Leo> ::frowns:: And it isn’t over yet. ::stops walking:: <Ben> ::tries to grab hold of Tessie’s arm:: <Tansy> Yaaaay! ::hiccups again and woosh! her wings poof into existance on her back lol:: <Leo> What the heck?!
<Tessie_Reed> ::is grabbed! frowns, looking at Ben:: Let go of me. Now.
<Gargoyle> ::frowns and steps up on the ledge… this time is waiting to make sure they are the bad guys before he gets involed, clenches his fists::
<Tansy> <Ben> What’s the matter, Tessie? ::smirks:: We go and be gentlemanly, buyin’ you drinks and suddenly you two are wanting to leave? <Tansy> Oh just my wings… ::flutters them:: <Leo> You into magic? <Tansy> I am! ::giggles, leans:: You like magic? <Leo> Uh…
<Tessie_Reed> Yes we are. It is getting late and my friend is very drunk. she needs to get home as do I. Now please, let me go so we can be on our way. This is not a very good way to treat us if you wanted to see us again.
<Tansy> <Ben> Leo can take her home, can’t you Leo? <Leo> ::smirks:: Yeah I can take her home. <Ben> See? How about we go someplace else? ::starts trying to yank her hard towards an alley near Gargoyle::
<Tessie_Reed> How about no! ::tries to jerk away from him! will even try to give him a lil shock to make him leggo::
<Gargoyle> ::unfolds his wings and a crack of lightning gives him the creepy dark shilloette look:: Let go of the girls and back away slowly ::said loud but clearly in Ben’s voice::
<Tansy> <Ben> ::gets a slight shock and shakes his hand:: Ow! What the? ::mrrrs then hears his own voice talking. looks around like what the heck?:: Who’s there?
<Tessie_Reed> ::Turns and will try to run to get Tansy!:: Tansy! we need to get out of here!
<Tansy> ::hiccups and another gust of wind blows someone’s Christmas decoractions off their doors::
<Tansy> We do? Why’s that? <Leo> ::gets between Tansy ‘n Tessie::
<Gargoyle> ::in leo’s voice:: Whoever I wanna be ::jumps down, wings slow his desent enough so he can get up but not enough so ben can as he plans to land on him hard::
<Tansy> <Ben> Leo? Gah! ::landed on hard, knocked over flat on his back::
<Tessie_Reed> ::hisses:: Because these toms are not the kind we should trust. Now fly over here to me and lets go.
<Tansy> Maw… ::floats up and around Leo, somewhat crookedly lol then flop lands, leaning against Tessie to try and stand right:: <Leo> Ben… there’s somethin’ creepy about- ::notes some thing has knocked Ben over:: Ben?!
<Gargoyle> ::still in leo’s voice:: Stay… I insist! ::gives his cheek a hard punch for good measure and then slowly stands… raises his head to look at leo and in Ben’s voice:: Ben can’t hear you right now Leo … would you like to leave a message?
<Tessie_Reed> ::will grab onto Tansy! looks over to note Gargoyle. remembers him from her last encounter with him. frowns as it does start raining:: Come on. Lets get away from here. ::will help Tansy to get away from the scene, letting Gargoyle handle it. Knows she’s useless wet like this;:
<Tansy> <Ben> ::KOed lol:: <Leo> ::gulps, letting the girls flee XD:: Who-wh-what are you? ::backing up:: <Tansy> ::walkruns with Tessie giggling:: Is this a game? I love games!
<Tessie_Reed> I am afraid it is not a game. ::getting them a safe distance away before stopping to make sure Gargoyle is okay::
<Tansy> ::getting soaked lol wings heavier and drooping. stops when Tessie does and hugs her:: Are we going out for ice cream still?
<Gargoyle> ::starts to walk over, his armour creaking, voice changes to leo’s voice:: When you figure it out, leo… let me know
<Tessie_Reed> ::awww! lol! :: I do not think so. I have ice cream at home. You can come home with me and we will eat some there.
<Tansy> <Leo> ::mrrrs pulls out a knife:: Stay back you freak!
<Tansy> ::hiccups and shrinks to her more regular big size of 3 feet XD::
<Tansy> Yay!
<Tessie_Reed> :;blinks, then looks down at her;: Think you could shrink to your normal size? ;;meaning her pixie size XD::
<Gargoyle> … That wasn’t very wise. Then again leo, you’re nights been full of bad choices ::keeps walking forward:: I should know… I’m you afterall ::gives him the flashbang visor::
<Tansy> Um… sure okay. ::concentrates lol her magic is a bit off kilter due to the “pollution” of the liquor in her system.:: nn… I can’t seem to do it right now… isn’t that odd? ::giggles:: Maybe alcohol is bad for you…
<Tansy> <Leo> Gah! ::blinded! turns and tries to runaway, slamming into a telephone pole lol::
<Tessie_Reed> ::shakes head:: I told you so. ::turning away at that flash visor thingy! covering Tansy too!::
<Tansy> Did that guy just use magic? ::squints lol luckly was protected from being blinded:: Oooh lookit, Tessie! It be a gargoyle!
<Gargoyle> ::tries to catch Leo in a fullnelson as he stumbles back from the pole and will attempt a fullnelson slam to be sure they’re down when the enforcers get here for the clean up::
<Tessie_Reed> It is not magic. It is machinery. And it is a kat…I have run into him before.
<Gargoyle> … ::looks at the girls before going to fire his grappler up at the roof lesge and he’s away!::
<Tessie_Reed> ::wataching him go! sighs and looks to Tansy:: Let us get to my nome. ::turning and will help Tansy to get to their home::
<Gargoyle> ::I’ll be having words with your father missy::
<Tessie_Reed> ::eep! i’m gonna be in trouble…;:
<Gargoyle> ::in fact that’s where I be off to now::
<Tansy> <Leo> ::taken out in that maneuver lol KOed::
<Tansy> Okay! Icecreeeeam! ::will walk with her home XD:: So who is the kat that dressed like a gargoyle?
<Tansy> <Greenbox> ::busy working on some sort of invention he brought home::
<Gargoyle> ::thanks ^^ didn’t like to assume but seemed like it would ko a normal kat on the hard ground::
<Tessie_Reed> ::Heading home with her:: He is a vigilante.
<Tansy> <Greenbox> ::searching for the right wires in a box::
<Tansy> Like the SWAT Kats?
<Tessie_Reed> um..sorta…
<Gargoyle> ::as he doesn’t have a Tansy to carry, is faster than yous X3… lands on Greenbox’s window ledge and goes to tap on the glass::
<Tansy> Well he is or he isn’t…
<Tansy> ::hiccups and gust of wind blows the both of them down lol::
<Gargoyle> ::I ain’t one of the headline hogging SWAT Kats ¬¬::
<Tessie_Reed> ::sighs:: Please..I do not wish to debate it with you. I just want to get home where it is safe.
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Huh? ::turns to the window and lets out a yelp seeing someone at the window there like that. takes up a wrench then goes to window. sees who it is along the way. worried expression, opens the window:: … what is it?
<Gargoyle> … ::in Greenbox’s voice:: Can I come in Doc?
<Tansy> Sorry, Tessie… ::continues on:: Is he your friend?
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Sure… though you should’ve just used the door. ::grins a little. sets wrench down and moves back for him to climb into the living room::
<Tessie_Reed> No..not really. I have met him once before. He thought I was a cyberdemon. ::Turning onto a better lighted street and heads them for home! Not too far!::
<Tansy> Why did he think that? ::hiccups and poof! she shrinks down to her pixie size of 9 inches lol landing on the wet ground. wails now that her dress is getting dirty::
<Gargoyle> ::clambers in and smirks:: Do I look like the “conventional” type of guy Doc? ::stands in one spot not wanting to get more of the floor wet:: It’s about your daughter…
<Tessie_Reed> ::blinks and picks her up. will wrap her up in the bottom of her shirt to keep her dry and warm:: Because I had the same powers as them.
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Tessie? ::eyes wide:: What’s the matter? Is she hurt?
<Tansy> <Greenbox> She only went out for icecream with her friend from the MBI.
<Tansy> ::is picked up and shivvering. snuggles in the shirt part:: Oh… that’s too bad. He knows you are good though right?
<Gargoyle> No, but I ‘ad ta save ‘ere and a pal from two guys… it was near a club in ::names the bad part of town:: so while I didn’t see them in there, there ain’t no icecream parlors nearby
<Tessie_Reed> Yes. He does now. ::rubs her back a bit to help her dry off on her shirt::
<Tansy> <Greenbox> … what? ::frowns:: Tessie… I knew that pixiieeerrr that friend of hers would get her into trouble. Where is she now?
<Tansy> Are we home yet? ::yawns:: I need ice cream…
<Tessie_Reed> Almost. ::turning the corner:: Just right there. :: can see the house! Giving Gargoyle and Greenbox a chance to talk::
<Gargoyle> ::rolls hies eyes:: On her way back ‘ere… Don’t worry, there’s no way the toms will chase after ‘em. And ‘ey go easy, mate, kitts will be kitts afterall
<Tansy> <Greenbox> That’s just it… on one hand she’s only a few years old but physically looks early twenties and has a vast knowledge about things but her social level is still that of a kitten’s.
<Tansy> <Greenbox> How do I know what she can and cannot do responsibly?
<Gargoyle> ::holds up his hands:: mate, I ain’t a dad so don’t ask… ::hears a beeping:: Got an outlet I can recharge with? I ‘ave money ta pay for it
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Uh… sure, over there. And don’t worry about paying for it.
<Tessie_Reed> Here we go. ::walking up the steps. goes inside the main door and heads upstairs to their apartment:: You can get cleaned up and we’ll figure out something for you to wear until we can get your clothes cleaned up.
<Gargoyle> ::undoes a panel and goes to pull a standard plug and pops it in there:: T’anks mate
<Tansy> ::nods:: Alright… thanks, Tessie.
<Tessie_Reed> You are welcome. ::will go to the door and opens it up! pauses seeing her dad and Greenbox. knows she’s in trouble now!::
<Tansy> <Greenbox> ::I am your dad! XD:: Tessie…
<Tessie_Reed> ::Gargoyle! dang it! XD::
<Tessie_Reed> Eh heh…hi….dad…..
<Tessie_Reed> ::sheepish look::
<Tansy> ((<DK> No I am. <Tess> Not anymore!))
<Gargoyle> … <’ope we don’t ‘ave the tellin’ off with me ‘ere ¬¬>
<Tessie_Reed> ((LOL!)
<Gargoyle> ((LOL Luke I am your father!))
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Get to your room and get dried off and changed. Where is that Tansy?
<Tessie_Reed> ::nods:: Yes, sir. ::then holds out the edge of her shirt with the drunken (and possibly passed out) tansy inside:: She got wet. I was trying to dry her off.
<Gargoyle> ::looks and raises a brow… thought he saw wings earlier but the shrinkings new to him::
<Tansy> ::yeah XD is snoozing now, tiny pixie snore::
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Well get her taken care of too. We’ll have a discussion afterwards.
<Gargoyle> ::looks at his wrist.. gonna need to be plugged in a while… he really needs a bigger battery::
<Tessie_Reed> ::nods:: Yes, sir. ::lol! yes being respectable! will glance at Gargoyle a moment:: THank you for your help earlier. I appreciate it. ::then will hurry to her room!::
<Tansy> <Greenbox> :;sighs after Tessie’s gone. sits on the sofa:: A pixie… is what Tansy is. I’d ask that you keep her existance quiet too but honestly, who’d believe you? ::half smiles:: You want something to drink?
<Tessie_Reed> ::will go set Tansy down and get her warmed up before going to get cleaned up and get some pjs put on::
<Gargoyle> Ya welcome luv ::waves her off and looks to greenbox:: And as I said before, I don’t look like the blabbin’ type ::smirks:: I would but I’d ‘ave ta take the whole ‘elmet off and I ain’t doin’ that
<Tansy> <Greenbox> There’s not a hole or any mask under the helmet?
<Tansy> ::laid down on Tessie’s bed maybe? snoozing away. white fur ‘n hair a bit dirty in some parts from falling onna ground. wings flutter every so often. is dry at least::
<Gargoyle> ::shakes his head:: nope… and ta be ‘onest, that’s probably a good fin’… liquid around all these wires? No thanks
<Tessie_Reed> ::shuas! laid her on a pillow there to one side and pulled the blanket up over her. will go sit down at her computer and sigh as she waits on her dad’s talk. hates getting in trouble. lol!::
<Tansy> <Greenbox> You really built that suit all by yourself? ::inventor mode ON XD::
<Gargoyle> ::nods:: Yep… ya’d be amazed what ya can buy online and rig tagether if ya dedicated enough ta look for it
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Heh not really. I’ve had to create things cheaply for prototypes.
<Tansy> ::wakes up some and yawns, looking over to Tessie:: Ice cream ready yet?
<Gargoyle> ::smiles:: Cool, but you probably learnt at sum college or sumfin’ right?
<Tessie_Reed> ::looks over at her;: I do not think we will be having ice cream tonight….
<Gargoyle> ::still in GB’s voice so it’s like he’s talking to himself::
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Yes, didn’t you?
<Tansy> Why not?
<Gargoyle> ::shakes his head:: Left school at 16…
<Tansy> <Greenbox> … well… a natural gift you’ve got there. You should think about working at PumaDyne.
<Gargoyle> I got a job… pays better than PumaDyne and all I make is all mine
<Tessie_Reed> I am in trouble. ::frowns:: That gargoyle guy beat us here. He has told dad probably about where we were…
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Must be nice.
<Tansy> <Greenbox> ::sounding slightly evnious::
<Tansy> ((envious^))0
<Tansy> ::sits up now and frowns. guilty look:: I’m sorry, Tessie… it is all my fault.
<Tessie_Reed> No no..it is okay. I agreed to go with you. I will have to face the consequences.
<Gargoyle> Trust me when I say, it ain’t… ::relaxes and locks into the standard Gargoyle pose:: And at least you got tech support type back up ::grins:: Me? I’m all on me lonesome with this
<Tansy> But it was my suggestion! ::stands now:: I will get in trouble with you.
<Tansy> <Greenbox> Heh… I wish I could work alone sometimes. My “tech support” is some annoying she-kat co-worker who left Puma-Dyne then returned. To punish her they made her my assistant… but I think they were punishing me more. ::speaking of Jenna::
<Tessie_Reed> ::sighs:: Tansy..please….just…….stay out of it. Maybe you should go home now…if you are feeling better.
<Tansy> ::hrmphs:: You kats and your rules and and… no’s. ::poof vanishes::
* Tansy is now known as Dr_Greenbox
<Gargoyle> Well I’d offer a swap but I ‘ave ta train me socks off just to walk in this ‘eavy fin’::laughs::
<Tessie_Reed> ::frowns:: Tell me about it. ::Rubs at her face, getting up to go sit on her bed! turns on the TV to watch some cartoons while she waits on Greenbox::
<Gargoyle> … ::looks to the door Tessie walked off too:: Look mate, I’m rechargin’, ya may as well go ‘ave that chat ta ya little gal. Just remember she was attacked so don’t be too ‘ard on ‘er
<Dr_Greenbox> … ::sighs:: Alright. ::stands:: If you decide to get something to drink, let me know your mask is off so I won’t come see you. ::heads down the hall to Tessie’s bedroom::
<Tessie_Reed> ::yes I was attacked! so go easy dad!::
<Gargoyle> Can do
<Dr_Greenbox> ::knocks on her door:: Tessie? May I come in?
<Tessie_Reed> ::perks ears:: yes, sir.
<Dr_Greenbox> ::goes inside and shuts door after himself. puts hands in his pockets and glances ’round:: Where did Tansy go?
<Tessie_Reed> She left. I told her to go home when she was feeling better.
<Dr_Greenbox> I see… ::sits on the edge of Tess’s bed:: Why did you lie to me about where you were going?
<Tessie_Reed> ::sighs:: Because I knew you would tell me no.
<Dr_Greenbox> And why would you assume that?
<Tessie_Reed> Because you never like it when I mention going out like that or trying to find a boyfriend. ::turning the tv off while they talk. won’t look at him though! LOL! like a kid!::
<Gargoyle> ((<Tran> What is a boyfriend? I’ll be the bestest one you want))
<Dr_Greenbox> ((LOL!!))
<Dr_Greenbox> Why is it so important you find a boyfriend?
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIES!::))
<Tessie_Reed> ::shrugs:: I want to be like other biologicals. They seem so happy when they have someone like a boyfriend or a husband.
<Dr_Greenbox> I don’t have a wife and I’m happy still. ::usually XD::
<Dr_Greenbox> ((brb))
<Tessie_Reed> ((okies!))
<Tessie_Reed> ::nods to that:: I suppose…. I am sorry, dad. I am just curious. It will not happen again.
<Gargoyle> ((kay))
<Dr_Greenbox> ((backerz!))
<Tessie_Reed> ((WB!))
<Dr_Greenbox> You just need to choose your places of hanging out better, Tessie.
<Dr_Greenbox> And not let those pixies talk you into things.
<Dr_Greenbox> ((wb!))
<Dr_Greenbox> ((er TY LOL gawwwwwrsh))
<Tessie_Reed> ((LOL! I hate when I do that))
<Tessie_Reed> ::nods:: Okay. I will try to be more careful from now on.
<Gargoyle> ((WB))
<Dr_Greenbox> You were lucky that guy was there to help you out. You can’t always rely on your cyberkat powers.
<Tessie_Reed> I know. The alcohol has dulled my abilities, and it started raining too…I could do nothing.
<Tessie_Reed> I managed to give the guy a small shock but thats it.
<Dr_Greenbox> ::nods:: There are still many things about the biologicals you’re unaware of… but you’ll learn in time I hope. ::bit of a smile. gets up and goes to hug her::
<Tessie_Reed> ::maww will hug him back:: I know. I am trying my best though. I am sorry, dad. I will not do that again.
<Dr_Greenbox> Good. ::leans back:: And you’re not going to be going out anywhere save work for the next two weeks.
<Gargoyle> ::dried off enough so her can walk around as far as the plug goes… goes to pick up a magizine and read it…::
<Dr_Greenbox> <magazines> ::are all tech based XD unless Tessie’s getting some of her own. lol Mechanics Monthly, Tech World, Cybernetics, etc. ::
<Tessie_Reed> ::Frowns:: awww I am grounded? ::Sad look::
<Tessie_Reed> ::Hey! I read those too! Those are my magazines too!:
<Dr_Greenbox> <apartment> ::is somewhat cluttered with various parts and tools, most surfaces have boxes or blueprints or an invention or two in the works. computer on the dining room table and another on a desk next to it. coffee table seems to be the only cleaned off surface as that’s where the two eat::
<Dr_Greenbox> Yes. For lying. But… you’re still allowed ice cream if you want some now. ::smiles and opens her door:: We still have our… guest here too.
<Gargoyle> ::hey, will I recharge, I’ll read anything… even ontime beer coasters::
<Tessie_Reed> ::nods, then smiles:: I would like some ice cream, yes. ::getting up to go with him!::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::goes down the hallway and into the living room to see Gargoyle reading a magazine:: You sure you do not want anything to drink? Or eat? I’m making ice cream sundaes.
<Gargoyle> ::smiles:: I’m sure, maybe next time tho
<Tessie_Reed> ::goes to the kitchen and will get out the stuff for sundaes! loves sundaes!::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::nods:: How long does a full recharge take? Say from empty to full? ::asking out of curiosity, not saying “get out already!” XD goes to kitchen and helps Tess make up the sundaes::
<Gargoyle> ::shrugs:: From empty I don’t know… I tend ta keep this baby from getting below 10% and keep it on charge at ‘ome. Not like the batteries are ment for sumfin’ this size.
<Tessie_Reed> ::will come out ot the living room to eat! taking a seat on the couch. has a large sundae in hand! XD::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::has a medium sized one himself. sits next to her on the sofa lol::
<Dr_Greenbox> That’s a good idea.
<Tessie_Reed> ::digs in! is hungry after all the action!::
<Gargoyle> Most of me work on this fin’ is guess work afterall… Luckierly I know enough to only test under lower amps if ya know what I mean ::mocks a shock::
<Tessie_Reed> ::listening:: Have you thought of testing it under safer conditions?
<Gargoyle> ::shrugs:: Safty ain’t never been one of me favourite words…
<Dr_Greenbox> ::nods:: How long it take you to get to the point of work you’re at?
<Gargoyle> ::thinks:: ’bout 2 years, 3 max
<Tessie_Reed> That is not bad. You have done good work in such a short time.
<Gargoyle> ::nods at her and looks at his wrist charger:: Most of it’s just other kats work and I’ve put it tagether
<Dr_Greenbox> <apartment door> ::knocked on!:: <Greenbox> … huh, who could that be? ::sets his near empty bowl down on the table. gets up and answers it:: <Jenna> ::on the other side. drenched from the rain. wearing short red skirt, black top, black heels and lab coat. hair was styled up but now just down and wet. sour expression on her face::
<Dr_Greenbox> Professor Clawson? What are you doing out here in this- ::cut off:: <Jenna> Let me in! I need your phone. <Greenbox> ::erk stands to keep her from coming in:: Wait here a moment and I’ll get it. <Jenna> I’m FREEZING just let me in!
<Gargoyle> ::stand and gulps… looks to Tessie:: ‘ide me ::in a whisper::
<Tessie_Reed> ::perks ears! looking towards the door and frowns seeing Jenna. stands up quickly to go get the phone!:; Here, dad. ::hurrying over to give it to him::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::takes the phone:: Here you are, Professor. ::hands it to her:: <Jenna> ::snatches it and shoves him backwards lol pushing him so she can come inside:: Honestly what is the matter with you! I’m a poor damsel in distress and – ::sees Gargoyle there in the living room? XD or Tessie gonna zap him out?::
<Tessie_Reed> ::will hear Gargoyle too! is up to Nee! Can have hurried back over after giving the phone to greenbox and zapped him out of the room or whatever!::
<Gargoyle> ::zap me outta there… I can’t afford to be caught ^^::
<Tessie_Reed> ::Then does so! zappying him! zaps him to her room since jenna wouldn’t go there. whispers to him:: Stay here. I’ll come get you when its clear.
<Dr_Greenbox> <Jenna> What was that? ::saw a flash of light then and no Gargoyle:: <Greenbox> ::scowls at her, adjusting his glasses:: It was probably some lightning outside. Hurry up and make your call Professor. ::hrmphs::
<Gargoyle> … <Greeeeeeeeeat… now stuck in gal’s room again… last time that ‘appened the dad busted in on us kissin’… doubtful it’ll end the same way taday tho>
<Dr_Greenbox> <Jenna> ::dials up a number. gets no answer so tries another. goes into the kitchen. running out of reliable toms XD::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::quietly to Tess as she comes back:: That was close… he alright?
<Gargoyle> ::no idea how he got here tho… completely confused::
<Tessie_Reed> Yes, he is in my room. ::whispered. watching Jenna and frowning:: why is she here?
<Dr_Greenbox> I don’t know… she just needs my phone… guess she got caught in the rain and hers isn’t working… ::eyes the kitchen:: <Jenna> ::comes out of there and huffs, handing him the phone::
<Gargoyle> … ::thinking just incase, takes his helmet off and puts it under the bed before going under there himself::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Jenna> I need a ride. Now. <Greenbox> … take a taxi.
<Tessie_Reed> ::Frowns:: we were having a movie night. He cannot leave now. ::lol! there’s that lying again!::
<Gargoyle> ::blinks:: <I know that voice>
<Dr_Greenbox> <Jenna> I don’t care, I need a ride! I haven’t any money on me for a taxi! My car broke down and my phone died and my purse is back at Puma-Dyne!
<Dr_Greenbox> Professor… I can pay for the taxi… <Jenna> You can give me a ride for free.
<Tessie_Reed> He is not leaving this afternoon. ::Firmly::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Jenna> ::glares at Tessie:: Then how about I join you in your movie then until the rain lets up?
<Tessie_Reed> Negative. We will call a cab for you.
<Gargoyle> ((Nee need sleep you guys XDD))
<Tessie_Reed> ((aww okies! Nights nee! ::huggles::))
