Venturing Outside

Nov 19, 2008 00:12


WHO: Prosciutto [ dead_head_ham ] & Rhode Kamelot [ dolcezzamacabra ]
WHAT: Rhode needs to get out of the house
WHERE: A bar near the airport, where nobody would look for a girl who is trying to hide.
WHEN: The evening of November 18

Rhode had slipped out the front door as carefully as possible, not as worried about Kris as anyone who might see her outside. She was paranoid about this going out thing, but there was a point where she couldn't stay in the house any more without feeling like she was going to go insane. She'd actually dressed discreetly, looking more like a boy than a girl in her current outfit, and she pushed her motorcycle to the end of the street before actually turning it on.

It was a long drive to the airport, but she took the road that ran just along the beaches and it wasn't as unpleasant as it would have been trying to dodge being seen in the middle of the city. Being on a pink motorcycle probably wasn't the best way to be subtle, either. Getting a different one wasn't an option, though, even if she didn't want to admit it to herself.

She cut the engine once she found the place, a small bar at the edge of the Monacello part of town that was still inside the neutral territory of the airport. She'd never wandered this far south except when she'd actually been at the airport, and they'd taken a different route. It was probably going to be a dump, but at least nobody would be likely to recognize her.

Once Rhode was actually inside, she realized that she had no idea who she was looking for. Sure, she'd talked to Prosciutto online for ages, but she had no idea what he looked like. Nobody looked like they were waiting for someone, so she ordered a glass of zinfandel and found a seat in the corner of the room where she wouldn't be obvious but could watch the other people in the bar. She kept expecting Caiman to come popping out from under the pool table or something, but her edginess wasn't coming to anything. The best she could do was hope she didn't have to use her gun- or anything else- to defend herself tonight.
