Gardsorm

Good lord, Dalton is not prepared for what he believes Evi is capable of... xD

I understand that feel. : p Managed to get some game time with my father in Warframe, finally got the new spider lady assembled, and soon I'll have Titania Prime. Now if only the rest of my life would sort itself out so I could get more time and focus, but this week is gonna be a little lax mercifully, so I aim to get in a few posts through it!

"Wait, what?" The nip against his ear had already weakened him, but he could never have anticipated what he just heard. Dalton knew the idea he proposed was... Probably not easy to excuse, especially for someone new to all of this! However, it had merits for the reasons of cover, but not just anyone could easily agree with it. Yet... She agreed to it! She really, seriously, agreed to it! The blue-haired male just looked like he blue-screened for a moment as he processed the audacious catgirl so readily agreeing to his proposal! She was indomitable as someone with more experience than him! But with that experience came a willingness for him to see just how much she possessed, and how much she would allow him to experience! His easily-seen eye practically lit up with a mix of wonder and delight, but he quickly revealed himself in and cleared his throat. She was more experienced, he couldn't seem like an inexperienced brat learning from her! He needed to be more mature about this! "O-okay... So, all for the sake of appearances, I can do this. Your control over your tail is good, right? You can use it to let me know if I'm going to far, or if you need to focus. For now, let's find a better vantage point..." He nodded, moving his hand to hold hers as he helped her up, before they started to approach the bar area. Although it put them closer to Ryoko, he gave her a quick look as if to let her know to not too anything too strange. He didn't want to test if Evi would truly try to bite Ryoko like a cat or not... But the moment he saw her and realized she was topless, he lost what he intended to say and nearly stumbled into Evi. A quick clearing of his throat allowed him to compose himself, shaking his head. "Sorry, lost my footing there for a second... Okay, from up here..." He trailed off, looking down through the glass floor to see their quarry Julius, approaching the downstairs bar. The seat infront of them would be able to be leaned over by Evi, giving her a clearer view of Julius downstairs. If he was approached by any company, they could be seen from here too. "Okay, this looks like a good spot. It... Does look like he's waiting for someone, though." Dalton noticed, the man simply ordering a drink of some sort with a wandering waiter... But he seemed to be looking left and right. Either he was worried about someone following him, or he was anticipating company of some sort. Was Evi right about this whole situation? "Last chance to change the arrangement, are you sure you're okay with this? It's one thing to be as experienced as you are, but it's another to commit to something like that with others around... Especially with someone you barely know." Especially given they were also close to Ryoko now... Arguably close enough for him to touch, but he just needed to make sure she helped maintain the facade of enjoying hedonistic activities at the Night Club. Observing a dancer would easily be one more passtime enjoyed her, so without realizing it, the girl would be helping them maintain their cover. But if she tried to slip in... Well, he would probably have to take the fall and put himself in Evi's place as a law-minded operative. He had the angle figured out, or so he believed. He could maintain Evi's secret as an Investigator, and perhaps by outing himself, maybe Ryoko would choose to distance herself. 'You know, if you wanted two girls, you could just ask them...' 'Damn it, Graf, that is NOT what this is about! I'm just helping Evi with her investigation, and I'm just thinking of contingencies to protect her secret. Who knows how this Ryoko girl will act if she finds out we're both connected to investigative agencies in this city.' 'Oh, relax, you know I love teasing you, hah! Anyway .. No sign of anyone else approaching this Julius guy, but I have to wonder why he looks a little shady. You only look like that when you know you're doing something wrong, right? Think the guy really is cheating?' 'We'll find out, and if so, that'll be between him and his lady to figure out. For now... We're just waiting and enjoying each other's company '

Gets away from you easily, huh? : p Wish that was my problem this week, but work week was especially tiring, and rampant fireworks spam is triggering my irritability something fierce (doesn't help I can't sleep as much as I should). Gonna try to get my responses in while I can now!

There we go, Dally attempts an escalation and work wombo combo! Whether he regrets it or not remains to be seen. : p

"Oh, come on, you have got to be messing with me now..." Evi wasn't just playing the part of a cat due to her ears and tail, she almost seemed to actually be a cat. Predatory creatures who knew how to play with their food when they set their sights in something, and now Dalton had inadvertently done that. On the other hand... It was fun to see! If she was a sign of what animal-like people could be going forward, then life truly would never be the same. Still, it was difficult to tell if she was either truly new to all of this or- No, wait, the way her tail flicked... No, she was just messing with him! He should have seen it coming, given how experienced she said she was... So wouldn't it make more sense if she knew how to poke and claw at him to make him squirm? ... If only he knew the truth of just how confident she was! But if she was going to dangle her skill over him, then Dalton would have to push himself out of his comfort zone and try to keep up with the kitty cat. There was a lingering sense of wondering if he was overstepping her boundaries, but the fact she wasn't pushing on him or telling him off... Maybe she was trying to draw him in. There was a giddy feeling that caught in his being, anticipation making him more audacious. Just what could he do? What would she let him do? Even just kissing and licking at her neck, feeling her reactions was empowering him in ways he could only dream of! Being with an experienced woman like this was exhilarating! 'Thia is officially the best night I've ever had at the Garden!' 'I hate to ruin it, then. Your friend's company just showed up at the Main Entrance, and seems to be heading to the Main Bar.' 'Ugh, Graf, can you not- Wait, seriously? Damn... I'm gonna get cockblocked by work again, aren't I?' 'At least it's not like last time when you were watching that girl getting ready to yank her panties down after letting her massive tits wobble about on the stage. I'm an AI and even I would have been angry to get called away from that. Can't imagine how you felt.' 'I could really do without being reminded about that...' He wanted to enjoy this so much more, but he was obligated to tell her about the arrival of Julius. This concerned her work, and he was not about to make her suffer because he wanted to play around more than usual. Still, it wouldn't stop him from answering her question, pulling his head away and fixing his hair a bit. "Right, I almost forgot you were new here... I need to think straighter... In any event, all I can tell you about is what I've observed, but really it depends on the people involved. If there are private rooms, I've never seen them, but most of the time... People aren't ashamed to have fun out in the open. As innocent as making out on the couches to full blown intercourse on the tables and even in the pools. I've seen a lot, but I've also seen couples walk out to go find places nearby to have fun if they don't want the world to see." Like right now, they were already getting into the spirit of the Garden, curiously playing with one another, even while someone danced for their entertainment. He had to admit, Maray was right about Ryoko: A bit of alcohol and she made a very good dancer! It made the fact that they needed to move all the more painful for him... But then an idea hit him. They didn't need to move far. There were ways they could see down below, the see-through floor present and the raised view of the dance floor and bar providing a perfect birds eye view of everything down below as long as one was surreptitious in trying to observe. Ugh, hearing her curious question was hurting him, not knowing how to really answer her... His inexperience in the matter could eithee be a bad thingbor a good thing. Should he lie? "Well, speaking theoretically, I wouldn't mind trying to experience the proper life and activity of the Garden, but I'm not someone with experience on that... Well, yet anyway. Bed is more romantic though, the dance floor would be more for warming up... Actually, I have a fun idea if you'd be willing to try?" He asked, before leaning in to whisper. "I've been told your quarry has shown up... The one named Julius, correct? He's presently at the bar below us. If you'd like to investigate... You can find a good spot from up here to look down, and I..." God, she was going to think he was a predator or something, wasn't she? ... This was no time for cold feet, if he asked, it might work out! "I can... Come behind you and... Um, lick you... Down there. Don't get mad, let me explain! If he looks up and sees you staring, it might weird him out, but if you steal looks and he looks up to see us fooling around, he'll just think we're patrons giving a show and he won't be any the wiser. I think it's a sound plan... Although it might give that Ryoko girl the wrong idea if we have to get closer to the dancing stage for a better view down below..." 'I'm going to regret this, aren't I? Maybe I should have just made a normal proposal instead of trying to mix work and pleasure...'

Mostly contending with summer heat and working hard to make payment for upcoming bills, but scrambling to get posts that I need out over the weekend before the heat picks up over the next few days. -.-

"True words of the day, if I heard any." Dalton sighed softly. Whether he knew or didn't, Evi's words gave him a little bit of insight that the work they undertook would always be dangerous, no matter what he did. Whether she was dodging bullets or sexual advances, he could neither tell at a glance nor ask her about, it was personal information. He was glad to be a guy in that he only really needed to avoid bullets and violence primarily. Perhaps in a way, he had it easier than Evi did... But that was all the more reason he needed to make her experiences here tonight memorable before she returned to work. If there was something he could be sure of, he had the impression that Evi seemed to be in a decent enough mood... At his expense, at least. 'Pretty sure my coworkers would be poking fun at me too for not being able to handle a girl smaller than me...' Inwardly he rolled his eyes. Luckily for Evi, the music did indeed cover up his ability to hear the purring, although how long that remained true waited to be seen if he kept his head closer to her for any length of time. Did she really think he was someone who could have all the action he wanted? Well... It was all up to how much fun he wanted to have... "I give that impression? Now you're just trying to flatter me... But no, I'm very much a watcher or observer. If I have company, it's usually to talk about other subjects, or admire the same things. I don't usually find myself getting too frisky, except to slip a few bills toward an exceptionally good dancer exceptionally close to me." He remarked with a knowing smile. "Otherwise, I try to keep myself in a short leash. Considering my occupation, I would prefer to avoid doing something here that would get in trouble with work. But you are making it... Very difficult to stay on a short leash." It was difficult to discern how he should approach. Slow and steady? Be brave and audacious? Wait and see? Ladies could be fickle, and he had no idea what Evi preferred more... But elaborating on her experience helped his curiosity. 'Oh, you are REALLY dangerous.' Evi could see how his eye went unfocused a bit with how stunned he was to see her lick his digit and make him shift uncomfortably. That absolutely made him want to sigh and just submit himself to her actions, but... It wouldn't be proper to him. Making a lady work first when she didn't even know him all that well... It didn't sit right with Dalton. "I can't very well say something isn't provoked now... But I actually had something else in mind first..." He admitted, before he inhaled and steeled his nerves. If he wanted to feel less guilty about receiving any attention from Evi .. He had to put himself out there first and show he was worth it. He turned toward her slightly, forgetting for a moment they were in full view of Ryoko, as he leaned forward and pushed his face against her neck, parting his lips to kiss along the pulse running through her neck... And giving it a little, teasing lick of his tongue similar to how she teased him with his digit. 'It's now or never... Grow a spine, take Maray's advice, and try to do something. This is your chance to have a really fun night, Dally! Don't waste it!' "I was more curious about how much oral experience you've had... Not given. But now that I know you've done plenty... I know how much I should try to give if I want to keep up with you~" He had entirely fallen for how much experience she proclaimed she had... But now it was a driving force for him to potentially go further than he ever had before, opening his mouth and gently grazing his teeth along her soft flesh, almost daring to mark her with a bruise if he gave that space too much attention.

This heat is miserable. -_x Gonna try to get my posts in before I crash into the bed for a nap, work was tiring.

"You too, huh? I can't tell if your line of work is as dangerous as mine in a physical manner of speaking, or dangerous because of who and what you are." Dalton truly couldn't be sure how dangerous the life of a Private Investigator could be, digging in places for information people shouldn't be... But he couldn't imagine her having the same kind of violent altercations he did in his daily work life, investigating seemingly unrelated criminal elements and seeing how they fit into the greater scope of the city life. Working with Graf and other sentient AIs to connect the pieces in investigations that the police couldn't solve. The fact that sometimes this could put them at odds with the other big corporations that seemed to help the city run certainly didn't help matters when they were a small, private division. Somehow thinking about all of that was much easier for him to handle than the catty questions Evi was currently asking him with. "H-hey, that is a loaded question, and you know it!" Dalton protested quietly. If he answered yesterday, that would have been perverted, but if he answered no, then Evi might take that offensively. There was no winning trying to answer a question like that, and he knew it. That commanding gaze of hers was like nothing he'd ever experienced before, and his other actions had been the best means of distracting his mind from how his body reacted! However, he also knew he couldn't ignore it forever... A distant *fwump* Reminded Dalton that it wasn't just him and Evi there, with Ryoko also dancing nearby, and the realization that they were being watched had started to play on his mind now, especially with Evi having scooted even closer! She was just enjoying being this wicked without admitting it, wasn't she? When was the last time he got to enjoy this? Having someone this close to him and doing more than just drinking and vibing? "You're saying that like I'm not already enjoying myself... A good drink, gorgeous company, more entertainment tonight than I usually get to enjoy when I come here. I can say... Work hasn't come in yet, so we can still have a few more entertaining moments between us." He worded it vaguely, but he wanted to let Evi know that, be it through his own watchful gaze (besides being focused on her, also stole looks at Ryoko, which certainly wasn't helping him cool down at all), or that of his 'reliable' companion, no sign of her quarry had arrived yet. But the night was still young, and anything could happen within the next few moments. He guided her hand along his cheek, inhaling softly before he leaned in to smile. "If I can be a little audacious... How much experience do you have with oral activities?"

There didn't feel like any kind of plan here... Of course, how could there be? This was his time off for now, Dalton was simply enjoying himself... Of course, the busi proposal by Evi could have thrown a little bit of a wrench into that plan, but instead he found a way to both take on a little bit of work, and still enjoy himself at the same time. As long as he had Graf monitoring the cameras when possible, he could take his time enjoying himself, getting to know Evi, perhaps trying to make sense of how someone like her managed to go into working at a Private Investigation firm. What were the odds that he managed to find someone like this during one of his nightly visits to the Garden? More importantly, did she even believe him? For all she knew, he was just pretending to be someone important... But he had faith in knowing she could defend herself if her life was in danger. Perhaps for now she was simply playing along... Although if that was the case, seeing her fidget like this was highly enjoyable! "Considering where she is, I'm liable to agree. I can't help but think she has ulterior motives, but I also confess I can be the paranoid sort. I don't ever walk into trouble I don't know how to navigate away from." Although the only trouble Ryoko was liable to cause was aiding in the stiffening of something down south, in tandem with Evi being so close to him. Trying to keep his attention on both of them was going to be beyond difficult for him, even with advanced oculus tech... Evi commanded the greater portion of his attention, but seeing Ryoko getting into the groove and start to try to dance, despite her drunken demeanor, was equally enticing. 'I need to keep my focus on Evi... I'm no player. Not like my old man... I'd be happy with just one when I find them.' He recited inwardly, like he was trying to convince himself he would never be anything like his old man was. He made have had money and a woman who seemed to care for him at home, but she also knew about his dad's bad habits... Why she stayed around baffled Dalton, but he tried to distance himself from his parent's lives as best as he could. Right now, these problems were his own to overcome. He didn't expect Evi to get close like that... Or perhaps this was revenge. Revenge for him seeming to tease her, as the hot breath that grazed his ear left him shuddering as he peeked at Evi between strands of his hair. She could see him visibly swallow a bit as she made the potential offer of sitting in his lap, and she could feel his hands tense just a bit, a nervous smile on his features. "I-I mean, you could if you want, I wouldn't object, but... You know, there's a very not-zero chance that if you do that, you might provoke something down there. Just, fair warning." Oh god, was he trying to get her interested in it or turn her away from it?! This was all his fault for teasing her with a kiss, then giving her a playful little kiss. There was a big reason why actions had consequences, and he was finding out right now. "If this keeps up, I'm definitely... Going home tonight with the worst case of unfulfillment I've ever had, but this will probably be the first time I'm okay with it." No matter what happened, Dalton was sure he found someone interesting in Evi, not just her physical qualities (She was a cat girl, that was like winning the lottery!), but her work ethic. Someone who might have done good in this crazy, neon-lit, technologically-advanced city, however small. His fingertips moved, tracing her fair skin before he brought her hand up to his lips to kiss the back... Before he gave it a soft rub against his cheek. There were so many physical experiences he wanted to partake of, small and minor things before they escalated into so much more. Uncertainty was high in the moment, but he wanted to explore what he could, what she was willing to let him get away with, without endangering or perturbing her.

Imo, it's all in creativity and how willing you are to play around with the designs a bit. They have fun appearances (I adore the insect-like themes some/most of the Sincho models have), but I think the bigger issue is that we only have a handful of chars currently active and they're all more or less in one place. Also not too many collectively active of the female (we have 3 active?), futa (just 1?), and femboy (The one char we have isn't active yet) lineup to appeal to the Sincho models so there's that too...

Something about her demeanor made Dalton feel as if the approach to talk quietly to her... Might not have been the best approach. He had been a bit more audacious and forward about it, and it was meant to be a little bit playful in a way, but her tail moved in small flicks in the kind of way an annoyed cat might lash its tail when something bothered it. 'Okay, maybe that wasn't the best way to approach the idea. Maybe you got her hopes up? Maybe you threw her off her guard... Maybe stick to just doing things directly going forward.' He chided himself inwardly... But thankfully she wasn't too upset not to share information with him, so maybe things were still serviceable between them! He couldn't ruin this second chance then... She was sharing the image through her device, and in response, he tilted his head down... Pressing it against her chest to make it seem as if he was nuzzling it, while his eyes glanced down at the screen. His eyes danced around the device's surface, recording the image in his eyes, before he nodded, sitting upright and wiggling his brows. "Okay, I've got it committed to memory." He smiled, allowing her to look close into his eyes, giving a glimpse at what looked like streams of data rolling across it... And for a fleeting moment, something darting past them. Maybe it was just a trick of the mind, however, as he blinked and nothing seemed to remain but normal eyes. "You know... Your eyes are much better to look at, I must admit." He leaned in, staring to be a bit more daring... But rather than make Evi believe he was going to tease her again, he pressed a small, short kiss to the corner of her mouth, almost like an apology for what happened before. "It does sound open and shut... But it's always better to be safe than sorry. One thing I've learned of life in the city, not all cases happen to be that easy. Sometimes... A little more work is involved." It was difficult to tell if he was still talking about the case, or them as his hand pushed up just a bit against her rubbing cheek, enjoying the warmth as she nuzzles his hand. "Speaking of things not being all that easy... I trust you've also noticed we have company nearby?" It was probably a rhetorical question, but it was better he made her aware in case she wasn't, of Ryoko's presence. At first he was a bit perturbed she followed them, but she... Legitimately started to try to dance. Evi could hear it, a quiet, pleased him emanate from his throat as he watched, unaware that he had shifted down below, before his eyes went back to his companion. "See, that's what I mean... Even dancing like that is good for me. Although this is the first time I've gotten to enjoy it, with company this close to me." His hands moved now, slowly finding her arms and running down along them to find her hands to hold. 'Still there, Graf? That image I snapshot, use it and survey the area. Don't brute force yourself into any security, just use surface level camera imaging to see if we can't find Evi's person of interest.' 'Ugh, that sounds like work. I thought we came here to relax-' 'I'll allocate additional private space for you.' 'Son of a bitch, I'm in! No take-backs though.' He was probably going to regret needing to add more space to his personal data space for Graf, but as long as it kept his companion pleased, he wouldn't mind in the slightest. Small price to pay to have an extra pair of eyes with a farther reach than he had... Plus it let him keep more of his focus on Evi than needing to constantly be in the lookout for a guy he might miss. Plus now there was Ryoko to observe... This was going to be an interesting night at the Garden.

Thank the stars, it's the weekend. x_x Time to catch up on a few replies, and then get whisked away for multiplayer shenanigans.

"... Err, you're leaning in a bit-" Dalton began to speak, mild worry etched on his features as Evi leaned in for what seemed like a kiss. Oh crap, he should have heeded Maray's warning, the Cobalt Velvet really WAS too potent for her first drink. However, she stopped short at the last moment and only broke into a whisper, allowing the males' heartbeat to return to normal. He definitely wasn't waiting for a kiss or anything like that at all! But the mention of her not being law enforcement at least managed to make him chuckle a bit. "I wouldn't really be worried if you were, you know. There's something fun about imagining being put in handcuffs and treated roughly... By someone around half my size." He admitted, before he cleared his throat. "Although there's the off chance you could have tried busting me for real though, and I don't know how exciting that would be, but it would make the possibility of a chase kind of fun... Ah, I'm rambling, sorry." However, what followed next three him for a surprise loop as Evi revealed her affiliation. She worked as an Investigator? Well, okay, so that was more exciting than he would have guessed, and more to it he had kind of befriended her... Wait, would she hold it against him for giving her alcohol? He hoped not. "You're... Not just yanking my foot here, are you? Well isn't that just peachy..." It seemed for a moment that there was a feeling of disappointment on Dalton's features, before he shook his head. "So you really were here on business... That's good, makes this a little bit easier." And certainly much less awkward. "Let's just say I'm sort of in the same boat as you then, working for a special operations unit in tandem with law enforcement to deal with... Let's call them unusual cases for now. I don't think an infidelity case falls under our purview, but I am off the clock right now... How I spend that time is up to me as long as it doesn't cause my group trouble. So, from one private sector worker to another... Let's say you have my collaboration." There was a slow nod, his gaze too focused on Evi to realize a certain someone has followed them upstairs. Enjoying themselves, nothing but cover... There didn't need to be anything serious about it. Maybe this was his chance to be a little audacious. He leaned in closer, moving a hand to brush her cheek, seemingly swooping in for a kiss... But he slid past her features, tipping his head up a bit to guide his lips to her ear. A soft, gentle, warm wind was felt as he whispered: "What does your target look like? I might be able to get extra assistance with surveillance, if necessary."

Sorry, I know you had plans to try to stop them, but I was worried leaving too much of a window of opportunity to keep them locked there might have caused things to hang up longer, so needed to make that little push. ^^ Also, drat, I should have @'d Chiyako in the other thread too. >.<

[OoC: Continued from here] === It was a night and day difference to Dalton... Probably to Evi too. Once the pair ascended the stairs and navigated the halls, the thumping music almost felt like a distant afterthought. Having just come from one bar, he didn't think of trying to bring her to the larger one, even if that one would have given food... The fact that girls were actively dancing over there probably would have been distracting enough for him, and he didn't come up here just to think dirty thoughts about whatever business Evi had with him. The smaller bar was fine for now, especially because it was less populated due to lacking any offered food, and only offered a small noise decrease. He cast his eyes around, looking for a spot that looked reasonably empty, bringing her toward a seat before he sat down beside her. "Phew... I forget how much it makes a difference being up here versus down there. Much easier to hear myself think, and you whisper." He moved a hand to rub the back of his head, inadvertently inviting a more awkward atmosphere once he realized it was just then again... But no, now wasn't the time to focus on that! He relaxed his arms and rest them on his knees as he leaned forward to look Evi in her eyes. "So, you okay there? You can still focus, right? What was it you were trying to tell me outside before we got into the club?"

The drunk girl was stzrtinf to get boisterous, it seemed, and even started intruding on his and Evi's conversation. Dalton quirked his brow and looked past Evi toward Ryoko, shaking his head. "Getting a little deep in your cups there, I think, I was kind of talking to my companion for the evening here..." He trailed off, feeling just a hint of awkwardness in the moment as she seemed to be... Accusing him of recruiting? He wished he could make good money doing something like that, but as it was, law enforcement wasn't a super-lucrative occupation. It still allowed him to occasionally treat himself, like tonight, but it wasn't something he could perpetually live a decadent life off of. He looked from Ryoko to Dai and Maray, hoping one of them could try to make sure Ryoko didn't overextend herself too much and intrude too heavily into his and Evi's business... Actually, now he was starting to feel like maybe he was too skeevy, trying to hold a private conversation. 'I'm not really the bad guy here, am I? I'm definitely not the sort to take advantage of a drunk girl...' He looked back to Evi now, announcing her distaste for the pool, to which he had to admit, she was right. Maybe some of it was her catlike qualities talking, but more than that, no one wanted other people's essence on them unless it was requested. Having it float and attach to them, or God forbid their hair, was a pretty horrid feeling. Mercifully, the commotion with Ryoko also allowed him to avoid seeing how awkward Evi got in regards to certain things they had discussed, but when she made it clear what she wanted to discuss was best done somewhere not as private, he felt a wind of relief that may be she didn't need to try to walk with this drunk lass hanging off of them. Taking her hand, he felt a heartbeat skip as she squeezed his hand, his eyes closing. 'Maybe nice guys don't always finish last after all...?' "Say no more! I'll take you to the upstairs bar... Should be a good deal quieter up there, and with everyone down here, the only people we'll need to worry about are those up there enjoying a meal, and those just hanging around... You three take care now, alright?" The blue-haired male nodded to Dai, Ryoko, and Maray before he moved to guide Evi upstairs. === [OoC: @Chiyako Gimme a little bit while I transition us to the Upper Floor and Bars : ) ]

Aight, bet. : p But yeah, don't want to let me working the week keep making Chiyako wait for a reply, so gonna have to give their moment a bit of a jumpstart to get them moving again.

Hm, still nothing from Lero? Alrighty... I'll get rolling on a reply soonish, probably shift Dalton and Evi to the upstairs portion of the Club.

Seconding Chiyako on this, I've been playing Dalton as going with the flow and simply enjoying his evening as time off from work. Rarely do I plan things out from the onset because I've found plans often go awry, and I find more fun acting in the moment. That being said, for Dalton nope. I wasn't pushing him towards big group thing for his first time in the club. He's a bit boring in that regard, but he is more legitimately curious about Evi's business proposal than getting her to get wild with him and a few other strangers, and while he doesn't know what to expect/his mind imagines it's a sexy sort of proposal, there is the small chance there's something serious to discuss, and as someone who has ties to law enforcement, he feels obligated to lend his ear and see what's up. Tl;Dr: He's gotta know people for a bit before he jumps in group fun, he's more liable to stick to singular encounters to start and grow into other things later, sorry. ^^;

Nothing wrong with that then. xD Have fun and game on!

No rush. : ) Besides, that's a recipe to get jinxed if I ever saw one. : p Got my weekend friend-and-family gaming obligations still underway for now as it is, so I'm a little indisposed for now except for a few short responses here and there.

Part of me wanted to ask earlier if it was just a mistake, but the silly side of me was like 'No, wait, roll with it!' and that's what I did. xD For what it's worth, from Dalton's PoV, he just assumed it was something pertaining to why Evi was there. : p No need to make a new char for it though! Given he's buzzed, he may not even remember it with time.

What are you talking about, Evi is totally helping! Helping make things funnier for everyone else watching things~ <.< Her internal thoughts are always a treasure to read too, it's fun to see how different Mental Evi is from Normal Evi! :3
