Two players, two characters, one post.

Dream enters without his usual fanfare, at his favored table. He, of course, is scribed in black, white, and hems of burning nightmare. One pale, pale hand rests on Kitty's shoulder.

She looks a little more with it, a little less likely to fall apart, than she had been the last time she came into the bar. She also still looks like she'd rather not be here, for all she can't hide forever.

He looks worried, for him, and silently accepts two cups of coffee from a passing rat. One of them is handed to his favorite niece before he sips from the other one.

There is a quiet thump somewhere to the left, and Raven approaches, head tilted and eyes bright.

He nods to Dream, but when he speaks, it is directed at Kitty.

"It has been some time, I think."

"Hey, Raven," she says softly, with a half smile. "Just a little bit, yeah."

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
"You would prefer questions?"

He tilts his head.

"Or cookies?"

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
"Cookies I can handle. Questions might not get the greatest answers."

Raven fishes in his pocket and hands Kitty several chocolate chip cookies.

He is generous in the face of sorrow. Or something.

"I do not demand great things, I do not think. But possibly it is better to discuss alligators crossbred with fish, yes?"

For 'better', read 'easier'.

For the moment.

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
"You know, there's an alien race that looks like that's their ancestry," she replies lightly, and murmurs a thanks as she takes the cookies.

"It is the teeth, perhaps? Or the gills?"

Beat.

"Or perhaps the protruding eyeballs?"

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
"Teeth and gills. The eyeballs were kinda like a praying mantis'."

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
"Easily poked out and tiny?"

Raven has professional interest in this, of course.

"It is odd, perhaps."

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
"Also kinda glittery."

Of course he does.

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
He perks up even more, if that is possible, posture straighter and gaze more intent.

"The question now, I think, is whether they also taste good, yes?"
prydeful: (Almost angelic but not quite)

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
"--I have never," solemnly, "tried it."

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
Raven looks faintly shocked.

"It is a question of texture, I think. Eyeballs are not quite firm enough for some."

He does not understand this. They are much better when they're runny.

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
"They're not a common dish where I come from," she says carefully.
creator_raven: (Default)

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
"They are better raw."

He nods again, biting into a cookie.

"Humans are very strange. Also they deprive themselves, I think."

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
"We are picky," she agrees.
creator_raven: (Default)

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
"Also you insist on sweaters."

Raven sounds confounded.

Why?

Who knows. Maybe it's the sheep.

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Baaaaah.

"Well, now it's getting warmer out, though," she says reasonably.
creator_raven: (Default)

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
"Then there will be sweater-vests."

Raven sounds like he knows.

Resignation is an odd look on him.

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
She cracks a genuine grin.

"That should be illegal."
creator_raven: (Default)

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
"There are reasons I do not trust law enforcement."

Raven's tone is dark and brooding.

It is difficult not to laugh.

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
"Perhaps you should become a member of a police force."

Scary, scary, wrong idea.
creator_raven: (Default)

[personal profile] creator_raven 2006-03-11 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
"The badges are certainly pretty."

Raven looks thoughtful. Oh dear.

"But I am not fond of the hats."

[personal profile] prydeful 2006-03-11 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Perhaps you can redesign them."

Kitty is evil.
