Fretting about shadow_games

[vesper_lynd]

Oh would you show a little confidence? Stop fussing about it you're going to be fine. The game will be fine. Everything. will. be. fine. Also, I notice you're still waffling about what you want to use for these little "images" you enjoy creating so much. Honestly I will look like myself no matter what you use so long as you don't bleach my hair and force me into coloured contact lenses.

And for heavens sake drink more Orange Juice. I'm bloody tired of listening to you cough all day and night.

Telling them to stop freaking out usually just makes them freak more, I've found.

[vesper_lynd]

She's got a talent for worrying apparently.

[anti_ventrue]

They'll do that. It's hard to imagine what they do more often: worry, or try to pair two people of the same gender up in spite of the personal wishes and tastes of those two individuals.

[vesper_lynd]

Incredibly I haven't had to worry about that particular problem. The lady seems to prefer her homoeroticism to be of the Canon variety. I imagine she'd get along better in places like this if she "followed the crow" as it were.

[anti_ventrue]

Impressive. I'm lucky enough to avoid that, as well.

[vesper_lynd]

Oh my that is fortunate. I will never understand the appeal in forcing someone to go against their nature. Like asking a fish to breathe air isn't it?

[anti_ventrue]

Or a werewolf to eat silver, true.

[With a grin, he offers his hand.] John.

[vesper_lynd]

Well there's a phrase I haven't heard yet. [she takes his hand with a slight smile] Lynd- Vesper Lynd.

[anti_ventrue]

I've met a few. Pleasant enough, if you ignore the raging, gnashing of teeth and smell of wet dog.

So how does a Vesper Lynd spend an average day?

[vesper_lynd]

What do you define as average? [she seems to be unsure how to apply the term to her own life] I suppose when I'm not on mission average would be a relaxing beach and a vodka martini.

[anti_ventrue]

'Mission'. Sounds cloak-and-dagger. As for the beaches, I'd probably enjoy them a lot more if I didn't ... sunburn so easily.

[vesper_lynd]

That's fairly accurate but...less dagger more pistol. Got a skin condition? There are other places that serve good drinks and excellent atmosphere. Ski Lodges and Five Star Hotels for instance.

[anti_ventrue]

Skin condition? A little. Let's just say I'm not an afternoons and summer guy.

I do my best work during the late hours, believe it or not.

[vesper_lynd]

Safety first hm? Sounds awful though if you don't mind my saying so. Some of my best vacations involved sunny resorts and tanning on the beach.

[anti_ventrue]

There are times I miss it, but I have an active enough night life now that it's not so bad.

[vesper_lynd]

Well, I suppose if you're content that's all that matters isn't it? [as if she knows anything about contentment]

[anti_ventrue]

Contentment is for lazy people.

[vesper_lynd]

I'd disagree but...well that would be a bit of a lie wouldn't it.

[anti_ventrue]

And the last thing either of us are, I think, is lazy.

[vesper_lynd]

I've been lazy on occasion. When my work has afforded me the opportunity [Like those three months everyone thought I was dead]

[anti_ventrue]

Suppose I can't fault that.

[vesper_lynd]

Nor should you. My job can be quite taxing on the body and mind.

[anti_ventrue]

I have plenty of experience with that myself.
