Dr. Sable dashes in, clearly expecting to find someplace else behind the bar's door. When he realizes where he is, he merely lifts his narrow eyebrows, straightens his suit jacket, and continues toward the bar. He's soon lounging at a table with a glass of carbonated water and his newest gadget: a slim, black iPhone ( Read more... )

Thom, at a table, sketchbook open before him; pencil twirling between two thin fingers. He seems to find it a little dull.

It's been a long time since Lucifer brought his guitar - well, his stolen guitar - into the bar, but for no apparent reason it's lying across his lap as he sits on a table in one of the booths. If you can be bothered to notice these things, his hair is a little longer than it has been, and threatening to start to curl just the tiniest bit ( Read more... )

Thom drifts into the bar, very fresh-faced, smiling to himself as if he has a secret he can't wait to reveal. He takes a seat and wonders if he'll have to buy his own drinks tonight.

Thom lets go of his sister's hand and says, "Drinks are on you, right?"

"If you don't lose your nerve." And if I don't lose mine. - Alanna: The First Adventure
Yesterday, very early in the morning, Alanna and Thom finalize details and say a very different, very odd sort of goodbye.

At Trebond: Before the spell. And after.

Later, Adam is there when Alanna wakes up.]

It's Alanna's turn to watch the triplets, but she's cheating a bit, having left the boys in the flat with Myles. Thom and Jamie don't seem to mind, and Myles is always happy to dote on his grandsons. Everyone wins, except maybe Grace, who is forced to listen to one of Jonathan's missives as Alanna reads it aloud. She barely makes it through the ( Read more... )

*Thom looks around expectantly, stepping into the bar through the back door. He sits down and hooks his arms over the chair back behind him, expression fading into a slight, crooked smile.*
