Slayer inna bar, with coffee and food.

Headphones are in evidence, but no books, this time, Antarian or otherwise.

Conversation welcome.

When she hears his name, Faith's face drains of all color, and she jerks her hand back.

She knows that name.

Bernard warned her about the Vengeance.

He freezes for a moment, then withdraws his hand slowly and leans back. There's an uncomfortable pause, and he reaches into his pocket for the cigarettes to fill it.

"Reputation precedes me, I guess?"

"I used," she says, very quietly, "to be Security here."

Beat.

"Crowley is a friend. Aziraphael too."
un_fallen: (light cigarette)

"Ah," he says, and the first cigarette is lit with the flick of a thumb on metal. His lighters click together as he drops one back into his pocket.

"Little more than just reputation, then."

"A little bit more, yes."

Faith is still very pale, watching him carefully.

"I was told that if I ever met you I should run."
un_fallen: (smoke)

He blinks, looking up at her and then quickly away.

"Who was it told you that?" he asks, his voice flat.

"Incidentally, it's not very good advice. Running seems to bring it on more quickly."

A long, bracing drag.

"And no one's ever been fast enough."

"Bernard. The head barman."
un_fallen: (pensive)

[personal profile] un_fallen 2006-03-28 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh." He relaxes a little, looks somewhat more composed.

"Well, I guess he wouldn't have known. And Bernard never has liked me much, since."

"Crowley's like his brother. I guess he just took it personally."
un_fallen: (in fact)

[personal profile] un_fallen 2006-03-28 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. I heard they were close, later." He shrugs.

"It wasn't, though. Personal. Just so you know."

[identity profile] faithful-slayer.livejournal.com 2006-03-28 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
Faith nods, slightly. "Crowley said it was kind of sudden."
un_fallen: (sleeve (fahye))

[personal profile] un_fallen 2006-03-28 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
He laughs weakly and nods, with another pull of smoke.

"Yeah, he surprised me. I can't control it, when it takes over like that. Crowley was very lucky to get away in time."

[identity profile] faithful-slayer.livejournal.com 2006-03-28 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
It's an odd definition of luck, perhaps, but Faith understands.

Better gone for months than forever.

"I guess he was."
