Dez wallows in self-pity - Rêve admits too much Jan 5/01 (Times are in EST)
|
[18:50] <Dez_Visir> <Dez sits alone in a small apartment situated back in New York City, where his transport was forced to return to. He had sent Thomas somewhere to be occupied....he needed time alone. After last night's defeat, his spirit had been totally crushed.>
[18:51] <Dez_Visir> <Not only had he disgraced the Silencer reputation, but he was almost killed in the process for trying to be too much of a show off. Any closer and one of the Judecca's swords could have skewered him...he settles on a glass of wine and a seat next to the window.>
[18:51] <Dez_Visir> <And there he stays....drinking and worrying...>
[18:53] <Dez_Visir> <His hand casually skims over the bandage on his forehead, which conceals a gash...his eyes' gaze fall towards the phone nearby, and he ponders calling Reve....>
[18:53] <Dez_Visir> She's probably not even there...
[18:56] <Dez_Visir> <He eventually does pick up the phone and dials in Reve's number, which he had actually managed to memorize...>
[18:56] <Reve_Hunter> Ok herusu, I'm out of here, if you're going out, just call my cell phone or something alright?
[18:56] <Herusu_Hunter> alright
[18:56] <Reve_Hunter> <walks out the door>
[18:57] <Reve_Hunter> <as she walks out she hears the phone ring..>
[18:57] <Reve_Hunter> Hmm...
[18:57] <Herusu_Hunter> Should I get that?
[18:57] <Reve_Hunter> <walks back into her apartment, the door still open> umm...let me get it
[18:57] <Reve_Hunter> It could be evan
[18:57] <Herusu_Hunter> <nods>
[18:57] <Reve_Hunter> <picks up the phone> Rêve Hunter speaking
[18:58] <Dez_Visir> <Fumbles with his words, as he's been drinking and is slightly nervous> Um, hello....this is Dez....
[18:58] <Reve_Hunter> Mr. Silencer, what a surprise...<notices the slurred speech> have you been drinking again?
[18:58] <Dez_Visir> I was just calling to make sure that...you were alright...
[18:58] <Dez_Visir> Of course not.
[18:59] <Dez_Visir> <Sound of glass falling over and shattering> Shit...
[18:59] <Reve_Hunter> <smiles> I'm fine...I'm more concerned are you alright? I just wanted to say thanks...you have been drinking...
[18:59] <Reve_Hunter> <looks at her watch> Hey...i really don't mean to rush you...it's just that I'm on my way out...want to call me back this evening?
[18:59] <Dez_Visir> No, I haven't, I'm quite sober...I'm alright....just.....well, it doesn't matter....
[18:59] <Dez_Visir> Sure, I guess so...
[18:59] <Reve_Hunter> <feels bad to leave him in this state>
[19:00] <Dez_Visir> Have a good night. Sorry to keep you...
[19:00] <Reve_Hunter> Thanks...hey, once again, thanks...it was scary being out there alone...
[19:00] <Reve_Hunter> No, it's alright. I really must be going now...hope I hear from you later though. Night Mr. Silencer.
[19:00] <Dez_Visir> Goodnight...
[19:00] <Reve_Hunter> <hangs up>
[19:01] <Dez_Visir> <Pushes the off button...and proceeds to throw the telephone across the room>
[19:01] <Dez_Visir> I should just forget about her.....
[19:01] <Dez_Visir> <Turns over in his chair, sighing>
[19:01] <Dez_Visir> Nobody likes a loser anyway...
A Short Time Later
[19:24] <Reve_Hunter> <picks up the phone and looks to see last caller ID>
[19:25] <Reve_Hunter> <surprised that a number comes up> I expected it to be unlisted...
[19:26] <Reve_Hunter> Should I?
[19:26] <Reve_Hunter> <sits down at her kitchen table contemplating it>
[19:26] <Herusu_Hunter> Huh?
[19:27] <Reve_Hunter> Herusu....yes or no?
[19:27] <Reve_Hunter> Just pick one of them
[19:27] <Reve_Hunter> Yes or no?
[19:27] <Herusu_Hunter> Should you what?
[19:27] <Reve_Hunter> Doesn't matter, Yes or No?
[19:27] <Herusu_Hunter> Um... yes?
[19:28] <Reve_Hunter> <deep breath> alright, if make a total arse out of myself, it's your fault ok?]
[19:28] <Herusu_Hunter> I still don't know what you're talking about
[19:28] <Reve_Hunter> And I'll hunt you down, coz I'm a hunter and I know where you live <grins>
[19:29] <Reve_Hunter> <dials the number saved>
[19:29] <Reve_Hunter> <waits for someone to pick up>
[19:30] <Dez_Visir> <The ringing of the telephone in the corner disrupts his drunken slumber>
[19:30] <Dez_Visir> What....<Rubs one of his eyes> Damn it....
[19:31] <Reve_Hunter> <still waiting, thinking of hanging up> He's probably out cold....
[19:31] <Dez_Visir> <Pushes himself out of the chair and stumbles towards the corner of the room.>
[19:31] <Dez_Visir> <He picks up the phone and answers> Dez here....
[19:31] <Reve_Hunter> <takes a deep breath> hello?
[19:31] <Reve_Hunter> It's me, Rêve.
[19:32] <Dez_Visir> Oh....Reve, hi....
[19:32] <Dez_Visir> <Tries to get a little more semblance of his wits, rubbing his temples with one hand>
[19:32] <Reve_Hunter> Well, I am home now and you didn't call, so I decided to call you. <a bit nervous as she's unsure of the wisdom of this decision>
[19:33] <Dez_Visir> Oh....did you have a good time, wherever you went?
[19:33] <Reve_Hunter> It was alright, we didn't stay out for very long...breakups are usually short and sweet.
[19:34] <Reve_Hunter> And yourself? You had a good evening?
[19:34] <Dez_Visir> Breakups...?
[19:34] <Dez_Visir> Yes, good....
[19:34] <Reve_Hunter> Yeah...someone from the past called me up unexpectedly tonight, thought to rekindle old flames that have been put out for months
[19:35] <Dez_Visir> Oh...one of those. <Squints, looking at the clock>
[19:35] <Reve_Hunter> Uh yeah... One of those...<doesn't know what else to say>
[19:36] <Reve_Hunter> Mmm...well, I just wanted to check up on you, make sure you were alright, you sounded a bit out of it earlier...
[19:36] <Reve_Hunter> I guess I'll let you go now.
[19:36] <Dez_Visir> Sure, I'm great.....everything's great...
[19:36] <Dez_Visir> Alright.
[19:37] <Reve_Hunter> Alright, glad everything's great...<bites her lip> well...<thinks: I know you're lying to me, just like how you did about that stupid check list of yours>
[19:37] <Reve_Hunter> Goodnight.
[19:37] <Dez_Visir> Goodnight....again....
[19:37] <Reve_Hunter> Sweet dreams?
[19:38] <Dez_Visir> Not likely...
[19:39] <Reve_Hunter> <pause> Try then. Imagine, sitting down at a villa with a vineyard as your view, sipping a good wine, breeze ruffling your white hair, and...
[19:39] <Dez_Visir> How about I just drink until I pass out?
[19:39] <Reve_Hunter> <sigh>
[19:40] <Reve_Hunter> If that brings you sweet dreams, then so be it.
[19:40] <Dez_Visir> Good...killing two birds with one stone...
[19:40] <Reve_Hunter> Goodnight Dez. (the first time she's ever called him by his name) Take care...
[19:41] <Dez_Visir> You too. Don't worry too much...about me, I mean.....I'm just some guy you met one day....just a pilot...
[19:43] <Reve_Hunter> No you're not, your an intelligent guy, with a strange sense of humor that I find attractive, not to mention good looking, and who I wouldn't mind getting to know a bit better, and I've just said too much so I'm going to hang up now to save myself from further embarrassment. <hangs up phone>
[19:43] <Herusu_Hunter> <imitating Reve> you met a guy? Is he rich?!
[19:43] <Reve_Hunter> I don't know herusu...he has nice suits, but so does Geraldo, but that's because the wardrobe person chooses them for him.
[19:44] <Reve_Hunter> <cheeks turn red at what she just said>
[19:44] <Reve_Hunter> I think I'm going to go to bed now Herusu...good night...
[19:44] <Herusu_Hunter> You don't know?
[19:44] <Reve_Hunter> No...i didn't ask
[19:44] <Herusu_Hunter> So this means that you have to stop being picky with me
[19:45] <Reve_Hunter> No, because your my brother and I want the best for you
[19:45] <Reve_Hunter> You've never been picky about my male friends, so don't you go start now
[19:45] <Reve_Hunter> <walks towards her room, lies down on her bed and stares at the ceiling>
[19:45] <Dez_Visir> <Meanwhile, he just stares at the phone> .....damn....
[19:46] <Dez_Visir> Now, to drink out of depression or happiness....
[19:46] <Dez_Visir> Why not just kill two birds with one stone?
[19:46] <Dez_Visir> <Puts the phone down calmly and takes his seat by the window, refilling a new glass.>
[19:48] <Reve_Hunter> <sighs> You're a fool Rêve...
[19:48] <Reve_Hunter> Triple Grade A, 100% Prime Fool...
[19:51] <Reve_Hunter> <walks towards her balcony door and stands outside, the breeze playing with her hair>
