[Jolyne looks none too happy, her entire shoulder and arm bloody - and yes, it's hers - although the wound seems to have been taken care of already. She wipes a trickle of blood from her mouth and scowls. She's just had a fun time battling a new stand that happens to be vicious and invisible! So she'll be slumping down against the side of the bar and sitting there to try and think.]

I am really getting tired of this.

You've got a rather unpleasant reality there, haven't you?

[still with the giant black wings >>;]

[Jolyne looks up, and oh hay! Giant black wings. Which really *should* surprise her, but after you've just gotten attacked by an invisible alligator corpse, giant black wings just don't seem quite as wtf.]

Only on days that end in 'y.' [Smirk] You get frequent flyer miles with those things?

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

Not exactly the preferable mode of travel these days.

What happened to you?

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing that's a no, then.

Same old, pretty much. At least I didn't get my leg bitten off.

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

I prefer my Bentley, honestly. Just as showy, but humans tend to be drawn to it rather than run screaming.

...bitten off? By what?

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

[Smirk] I'd think if you stood in Central Park and flexed some wing muscle, you'd have a flock of groupies in no time.

Invisible dead alligator.

[A somewhat wicked smirk] I have other ways of doing that~ And anyway, flexing your wings in public tends to attract other sorts of attention as well. The kind with flaming swords and very little patience, despite it being a Virtue.

...right. Was it dead before or after it tried to take a bite of you?

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

See, now you're just making me curious.

[She rubs at the back of her neck] Before, actually.

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

About what, specifically? The groupies or the flaming swords?

And how was it you managed to stumble upon an invisible dead alligator? Besides the obvious, of course.

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

More the groupies, but I wouldn't mind finding out about either, really.

Long story short? There was a guy controlling it, and it attacked my friend, so we beat the shit out of it.

[Crowley grins]

You wound me—here I'd been thinking I was just naturally charming~ Though temptation is a bit of a personal forte.

Ah, I see.
