Roof Tops: Night

[Her sword drips with blood, her black boots standing in the middle of the dark puddle as she looks up into her victims gaze. Her eyes are cold and calculating as her grip on the girl’s neck shifts. Her sword rises up once more slicing her head from her shoulders with a clean poetic arc. The body falls like a doll over the edge of the building until landing below where the figure freezes in death.

Ib drops the head on the rooftop, the girl’s blood continuing to pool as blue eyes look out in horror. A tangled mass of dark blond hair is stained with red like everything else on the roof. It is a beautiful painting left scattered along the buildings edge.]


One more piece.

[Her voice is soft as she turns away. Her gloved hand holds a bloody mass of tissue as she walks towards the painting that calls her.]

Bar: Night

Ib tilted her head to the side, a curtain of dark hair falling in response. It was the same most nights and again she was asked out. Her tight leathery black top was enough to make the boy’s mouth water but add her red eyes, the dark shade of her hair and the fact that she worked in a gothic night club and you got the perfect eye candy.

She made good tips that way.

A cruel smile pulled at her lips, one she had practiced since her first day, while her thin finger reached out and trailed along the boys jaw. He was older than her but he had a baby face that made people card him constantly. His name might have been Trevor; Ib never really took the time to remember.

“You know I can’t.”

Daytime:

She walked through the streets, her hands at her sides with her shadow following close behind her. Her red gaze flicked over those walking passed as if looking for something she had lost. He was complete and yet that preditorial urge remained.

“Garry.”

Her voice was soft but rang with a tone that demanded it be listened to. In an instant the shadow stepped forward, his eyes dead and cold like the puppet that he was. Ib placed her hand in his, looking at him as if they were the only ones along the crowded street. Those looking at the pair might mistake them for lovers except that their bond was much deeper than that.

The hum of those around them pulled her from her thoughts; she released his hand and turned forward. Like a good puppet he followed behind keeping his cold gaze on her long brown hair as it fanned behind her.

[He nods his thanks at the swift delivery of his beer, which is a pretty dramatic difference between her and Grumpy Frank at the Anchor already, and takes a sip from the beer she'd brought him, pleased with the flavor. Guinness. Nice.]

Aren't we all just a little out of place?

[He smiles and nods again.]

And I guess so, yeah. So far I'm enjoying the sights. Everyone could use a change of setting now and again, yeah?

yay random things!

Sean Reeves. [He nods, turning on his bar stool to look out at the rest of the place, leaning back, drink in one hand, but he turns in her direction, appreciating the arch of her back in the leather before he moves to her eyes.]

It's the best part of going to new bars. [He smiles.] You probably get this a hundred times a night, but you have intriguing eyes.

yay random things!

I might at that. [He moves slightly for the man after the wine, but he doesn't miss a beat. He's clearly played the shimmy dance of the man who props up the bar a lot.] Mind if I get a closer look?

[He turns back to the bar.]

yay random things!

[He takes a breath and makes a show of moving his glass aside to lean over the bar, looking deeply into her eyes for several seconds, intent. Looking at them rather than through them.]

Well, they're not contacts, but they are unique. [And he leans back on his bar stool.] Though if I had to hazard a guess, not much about you isn't.

yay random things!

[He smirks, holding up a hand to accentuate his point.]

Observations. People make compliments just to be polite.

[He continues to smile as he turns away from the bar again, letting his eyes sweep across the establishment.]

As it turns out, it depends on which way I'm looking, but isn't that always the case?

yay random things!

If I was just throwing back compliments I would be.

[He doesn't turn back to her as he continues.]

Wherever, unless you've got some suggestions, Ib. [He'd picked up her name from the other guys at the bar.]

Yay random things!

[He shrugs, still scanning the bar.]

I'm feeling flexible tonight. What do you suggest?

Yay random things!

Now that's a sight I'd enjoy seeing.

[He turns to look over his shoulder.]

Free tonight?

Yay random things!

[Sean smiles at that, nodding slightly.]

Why not? I'm free tonight.
