Singing in the Rain. Got it.

[It's not her and Kenzi's usual horror fest, but it's something, at least.]

Anything else I should know?

[diana_abel]

Depends. About musicals or...

...something else?

[dontkanyeme]

[She shrugs.]

Anything. It seems like you've lead an interesting life.

[diana_abel]

[She laughed.]

Look who's talking.

[dontkanyeme]

[She grins.]

Hey, compared to some Fae I'm a baby. I've only just turned thirty.

[diana_abel]

Well, therein lies the quality versus quantity argument.

Which...feels a little too philosophical for a place that has flaming shots.

[dontkanyeme]

[She laughs.]

You haven't met the owner yet.

[diana_abel]

Ah. So we're talking that kind of bartender?

[The best kind, actually. Suddenly, Diana's eyes curiously start to scan the bar again.]

[dontkanyeme]

He is. And he's got some stories that would probably blow your mind.

[She glances back over her shoulder.]

I wonder where he is.

[diana_abel]

I do like having my mind blown.

I take it he's more than just a bartender around here?

[dontkanyeme]

He owns the place. And he's very well respected in the Fae community.

[diana_abel]

[Like a Keeper.

Probably not wise to apply Cainite terminology to the Fae, but she's working without a paddle here.

She's just happy she hasn't been turned into a newt or something. Yet.]

What's his name?

Am I allowed to ask that?

[dontkanyeme]

[She laughs.]

His name is Trick.

[diana_abel]

Trick?

[That's ominous.]

Very...1980s rockstar.

[dontkanyeme]

[Bo snorts a bit at that, before turning and pointing down the bar to the short man talking with a very tall blond man in a leather vest.]

That's him. I don't think 80's rockstar is really his style.

[diana_abel]

[Diana turns to look. And both eyebrows go up sharply.]

I dunno. The leather vest is pretty rocker...

[dontkanyeme]

[She laughs a bit.]

He's the short one.

[diana_abel]

Wow. Oops. Awkward.

[Diana has the good sense to laugh at herself, though.]

Yeah. Maybe a different kind of rocker.

[dontkanyeme]

[The idea of Trick being in a rock band? Still amusing.]

Maybe. Something a little more old school.

[diana_abel]

Simon and Garfunkle. A more laid-back kind of rock.

Folksy, I'd say.

[A pause.]

I put way too much thought into music sometimes. Sorry.

[dontkanyeme]

[She shakes her head.]

It's okay. I think he'd appreciate the compliment.

[diana_abel]

Well, I'm nothing if not a gracious guest.

[She rests her chin in her fingertips, looking at Bo.]

You know, you're stunning.

[dontkanyeme]

[She smiles a bit at that. Even if she hears them all the time, she always loves a good compliment.]

Thank you. You're pretty beautiful yourself.

[diana_abel]

[Oh, she knows.]

Thank you.

[dontkanyeme]

You know. I could snag a bottle of this pretty awesome scotch and we could take this somewhere more ... private.

[a beat.]

Unless you think your ride will be ready soon.
