Isabella and Penn left for Greece to search for a statue that will take the God of Lust out of Los Angeles. Huh. So much for my theory that only the weird stuff happens in Sunnydale. Though the God of Lust explains a lot of the stories I've been reading in People magazine and Rolling Stone

Oh, I have no doubt that her concerns are valid. We're all training to defend ourselves, but I have no plans to seek trouble out. I'd like to live to see my thirtieth birthday which will happen entirely too soon and it kind of depressing to think about.

*motions to the waitress*

Another round please.

[tristan_cohen]

Yeah sorry, I have just a touch of big brother-itis so if I harp on being careful just kick me or something and I'll stop.

*toasts her with his new glass and takes a drink*

What have you been training with? Crossbow obviously, and stakes.

[ingrid_hicks]

I can fire a water gun filled with holy water amazingly well. The crossbow is slowly coming to me.

Staking I'm okay with, but it's been drilled into me that crossbow first because you never want to let a vamp get close enough that you have to stake them.

*sips her drink*

Eventually I'll probably learn how to use a sword. Isabella seems very fond of them.

[tristan_cohen]

If you want I can show you how to use a gun too. Doesn't work so hot on vamps other than getting shot hurts like a son of a bitch but it works better on some demons than a crossbow.

Swords are fun, I need to work more with that myself. Although I always feel a little silly carrying one under my coat, I get Highlander flashbacks.

[ingrid_hicks]

Wouldn't shooting them with a gun be dangerous if it doesn't kill them? I'd think pissing them off would be a bad idea.

[tristan_cohen]

Good point. Always good as a back up though.

I'm kind of in the 'the more weapons the better' school of thought. Although I do manage to keep it down so I don't clank around like a windchime. that tends to give you away a bit.

[ingrid_hicks]

You'd probably get along really well with Isabella's boyfriend, Penn. He has an amazing amount of weapons.

*considers his offer*

Yes, I'd like to learn how to fire a gun. Perhaps we could pretend to play Highlander together? I get to be Duncan though because I have the hair for it.

[tristan_cohen]

*grins* I might have to meet this Penn.

Ok as long as you don't cast me as Richie I'm ok with you being Duncan. I'll be Methos the really old annying one.

I'll take you to the firing range sometime then. And we can play swords afterwards.

And maybe talk some more with our friend Jose.

[ingrid_hicks]

Probably should make sure we put the swords away before we talk to Jose.

*smiles*

It's a date.

[tristan_cohen]

Heh, yeah sharp objects don't get along too well with Jose, they cause all sorts of problems.

*smiles*

Great.

[ingrid_hicks]

Maybe next week some time?

[tristan_cohen]

Sure, you know where I live, just come by and tell me what day is good for you. My life is pretty rearrangeable at this point.

Which is my way of saying I don't have a life so you won't be interrupting anything.

*tips his glass at her*

Cheers, and thanks for this evening.
