[open] if you don't shut your mouth, you're gonna feel the floor.

Who: John Allerdyce and, perhaps, you.
What: Crossing the line and getting his ass fired.
When:Night 267
Where: Baldr, either at the bar or wandering.
Rating: PG-13 for John's mouth and potential violence, will mark up if needed.


[They knew that he drank on shift. They knew that he mouthed off customers and occasionally even told them to get right the fuck out of the bar. But they were strapped for employees, so they held onto him.

Until he got extremely loaded on this particular evening and started - or attempted to start - a fistfight with his boss. The large, burly man had just enough colour to be angry, so he joined in gladly, and it got to the point where Pyro had to pull his knife. One long cut up his boss's bicep later, Pyro's ass was out on the street.

You can find him:

A) Standing in the open doorway of the small bar, hollering abuse at the owner/bouncer who just threw him out, his arms and face badly bruised and a slight list to his walk;

or

B) Wandering through Baldr with a fresh bottle in his hand, a steady stream of muttered annoyance trailing behind him. There may be shadows of bruising left, but they'll be hard to make out in the darkness.

It's hard being Pyro, damnit. So much manpain, so little time.]

I don't-

[But he's being defensive. Isaac shakes his head and lets it go.]

-don't pretend that you know anything about me. Just because you put all your self worth in your powers doesn't make you a better person. It just makes you sad, now that they're gone.

I know, I know.

[Her tone isn't patronizing, it's empathetic. She knows what it's like to feel so frustrated with this place, so helpless.

When she's finished she'll lower the cloth, then lean in to press her lips against his lightly.]

[She doesn't expect much out of him, not when there's so much alcohol on his breath. And on top of that she isn't going to push things too far, because even if he'll heal up from his injuries he still looks sick as hell.

So there's a pleasant hum in her throat when he returns the kiss, and instead of having to deal with the awkward position of the chairs she's going to just slide into his lap.]


You'll never be anything else to me.

[She rolls her eyes at the surly look. She's not impressed.

It's on the tip of her tongue to pop off back at him when the expression on his face stops her cold.]


Now you're talking about something I know about. So you're the rebellion? Or is it more organized than that?

[She catches the look on his face and leans against him, gently. She won't say anything because she already knows what he's thinking. Usually she just avoids mentioning these things to him but in the late night mess, she forgot.]

I'll make you one.
eggsterminate: (baby i'll be bulletproof)

[Oh, that's so -







- Cute.]


.........

[Really, John? Really? She sighs heavily, watching him for a couple moments before prodding his forehead.]

Hey, wake up.

[Vampire abilities or not, Connor still seems to have a spidey-sense for people fighting. The screaming is very faint when he hears it but he knows instantly and follows the sound to see if there's trouble. There have been some violent events in the city lately, after all.

He watches for a moment, first thinking it's simply a barfight, none of his business and no help needed with the bouncer there to break it up. Then it becomes clear that the half-beaten guy was the bartender, and sees the cut on the bouncer's arm, and suspects that it might escalate further.

Connor sighs -- he really shouldn't get himself into this shit. He steps into the light and walks up to them casually.]

Hey. Problem?

[Connor actually suspects that this guy is a danger to himself more than anything right now, so he reaches forward and pulls Pyro's shadow from the building, covering the knife in a sheath of darkness.]

It sorta is, if you're waving a knife on the street.

Just put the knife away, man, we'll get you some ice for that jaw.

[the shadows dissolve and reappear on the wall as pyro closes the knife]

Regeneration? That's a good one.

[understanding flashes in Connor's eyes, but his tone stays mild]

A lot of us feel that way. We feel wrong.

Normally I'd say that we should just use what we're given and we'll get ours back when we leave, but you're already using it. Does getting beaten up help anything?
