Chris has had a tough week. Work is a pain enough without getting picked on by the guys. It was her birthday today...which led to more ridicule unfortunately. The last thing she needed was a trip to Milliways, but it wasn't like she could control such things.

*She stumbles in*

I'm not even gonna say anything

*She heads over to the bar*

"Bourbon on the rocks and some ice, please"

*The bar brings up her drink and the ice as she raises the cloth of her t-shirt on one of her arms.*

Her upper arm and shoulder holds a giant bruise, in every color you could think of.

"Thanks"

Birthday punches, my ass. These are bruises. Sometimes being "one of the guys" isn't exactly the greatest advantage.

*She rubs her arm with the ice, occasionally reaching out her hand for a sip of her drink*


Come bother her. She wouldn't mind....just don't even touch her arm.

*Angelina sees the bruise on the womans arm and comes over, frowning.*

Are you alright?

*She looks over*

"Not really, but I'll live."

*She smiles slightly*

[capt_angie]

You know Bar could give you a potion to help with the swelling and pain if you asked her.

[bulletproof-bra.livejournal.com]

Bar can make potions?...Are you sure?

*She looks at her curiously*

[capt_angie]

*She laughs.*

Well I'm not sure she makes them, but she can give you one if want.

"Potions? Like magic?"

For a girl from the barrio, this is unheard of.

"Just like that?"

[capt_angie]

Like magic, yeah.

*She says with a nod and a small smile.*

[bulletproof-bra.livejournal.com]

Well, what should I say? Is there a specific name for this potion?

*She's still a little afraid of this for some reason*

[capt_angie]

Probably, but I'm no good at potions. Just ask for a potion that'll help with the bruising. Bar'll know what to give you.

[bulletproof-bra.livejournal.com]

Ok, I'll try it.

*to bar* Do you have a potion for healing a bruise? Please?

*The bar quickly bring up a potion*

Should I drink it or rub it on?

*She's still somewhat confused with the whole potion idea*

[capt_angie]

You drink it. As potions go it's not too bad tasting, but it's not exactly Butterbeer either.

It won't heal straight away, but it'll help with the pain and it'll definately heal alot faster than it would naturally. It'll probably be mostly gone by tomorow afternoon.

*She drinks the potion*

Not the best...but thanks.

*She smiles lightly*

I'm Chris.

*She puts her hand out*

[capt_angie]

Angie.

*She says shaking Chris's hand.*

And as you've quite possibly realised by now, I'm a witch.

[bulletproof-bra.livejournal.com]

That explains the knowledge of potions.

*She smiles*

I'm a SWAT officer. Nice to meet you.

[capt_angie]

Nice to meet you too.

But what's 'swat'?

[bulletproof-bra.livejournal.com]

Special Weapons and Tactics. It's the peak branch of LAPD. Los Angeles Police Department.

I take it you know what police are?

[capt_angie]

*She nods.*

I know what police are. Whats the differance between SWAT and the normal police?

[ooc: Mun must run, so we either need to slowtime or fade.]

[bulletproof-bra.livejournal.com]

Just more training and higher standing.

*She smiles*

Well...I gotta go. Sorry. My daughter probably planned a party back home for me and I don't want to let her down. Thanks for everything. I'll see you around sometime. Bye

*She takes off*

(ooc:I have to go as well. I closed it. I have so many slowtimes already. Hope you don't mind. Thanks for the conversation.)
