[Bo waves her hand, signaling the bartender to get his attention again.]

You are not intruding. You are here for a drink, this is a bar - you are exactly where you are supposed to be.

[diana_abel]

[Diana raises an eyebrow, offering Bo a crooked, little smile.]

Am I? Like destiny?

[dontkanyeme]

[She shrugs.]

Destiny, perfect timing - call it what you want. I say fortune is smiling. Just ... stay away from the luck fae. Mayer could make that turn around in a flash.

[diana_abel]

I've never had much luck anyway.

[A bit more relaxed, Diana examines her new companion. Very, very beautiful. And surprisingly forthcoming. Then again, maybe she's just spent too much time around Cainites lately.]

So do you have a name, or should I call you Blue?

[dontkanyeme]

[She smiles a bit, before lifting her drink and tipping it in her direction.]

Bo.

[diana_abel]

Bo.

[She was expecting something a bit more exotic. Desdemona. Cobweb.

Tinkerbell?

Bo just seems entirely too incongruous. But then again, the woman seems to be going a bit against the grain of whatever this place is.]

Diana.

[dontkanyeme]

[She's unaligned, and her grandfather is the bartender.]

Nice to meet you, Diana. Welcome to the Dal.

[diana_abel]

The Dal.

[Her eyes flick around, taking in the setting.]

Okay. I'm getting an Irish theme here.

[dontkanyeme]

We've got some Irish roots, so it makes sense.

[She shrugs.]

Trick, the owner, is from Ireland originally. I think.

[diana_abel]

My bestie is Irish. Liam.

[She rests her chin in her palm, watching Bo.]

So. A Fae Irish pub.

What kind of questions do they have on trivia night?

[dontkanyeme]

Trivia night was never really my thing. I'm usually in it for shots and flirting.

[And sometimes more than flirting.]

[diana_abel]

[Sounds like a fun kind of woman. Diana can't help but grin.]

What's your move? I mean, I'm assuming, "I'm a fairy" doesn't really work so well in this crowd.

[dontkanyeme]

No. But "I'm a succubus" usually does the trick.

[diana_abel]

A succubus.

[Wow. Okay then.]

That...that's a good move.

[dontkanyeme]

[She smirks.]

It's worked pretty well for me so far.

[diana_abel]

I, uh, I can't say I've ever met a succubus before.

[Although her sister has been known to suck the life out of people before.

But that's just her awful personality.]

[dontkanyeme]

Not many people have. We're pretty rare, even as far as Fae go. Helps with the whole ... getting attention thing.

[diana_abel]

I highly doubt you need much help getting attention.

[There's a less than subtle once-over accompanying that statement because...

Yeah.]

[dontkanyeme]

[ ... True.]

Hey, it never hurts to have an edge, regardless. No one likes a pretty face with nothing to say.

[diana_abel]

[That makes her laugh.]

You've clearly never met the boys who were around when I was a teenager.

[Yeesh.]

[dontkanyeme]

[Her eyebrows go up.]

Sounds like they could have used a kick in the face.

[diana_abel]

I might agree, but I'm a pacifist.

[Well, she doesn't approve of kicking humans, anyway. She might be okay with someone kicking Hitler, but that's pretty much her hard limit.]

They just need to see the error of their ways.

[dontkanyeme]

[Her eyebrow raises.]

Did they?

[diana_abel]

[Diana shrugs. The answer is probably not. But human beings can be full of surprises.]

Beats me. I left and never looked back.

[dontkanyeme]

Sounds like a smart choice.

[Bo's made a few of those herself, but she was running for much different reasons.]
