Making Good on a Bet [tag Rose, ota]

Mar 06, 2011 21:39

Methos sat in the lobby, eying the elevator as he waited for Rose. He was looking forward to seeing the woman again. Although apparently that was becoming something of a theme for him in the village. Meeting interesting women. Bela. Helen. Rose. That was something that seldom happened to him. He was no slouch when it came to women, but he was still ( Read more... )

Rose hadn't paid much attention to what the weather was like outside but she figured if it was too cold for the outfit that she wore, she'd run upstairs again and grab a jacket.

When the lift doors opened she glanced around and saw him waiting for her. "Hullo. You settlin' all right in the village?"

Methos smiled when he saw her step out of the lift, standing up when she walked over to greet him. He also very respectfully looked only in her eyes, despite that very provocative shirt that he could see under her jacket.

"I'm settling in alright. I've procured a part-time job at the antiques store, already."

"Look at you. A member of society already." She teased him with a grin. "Congratulations. Reckon you'll be an expert on antiques. Or I guess manuscripts anyway."

"I don't waste any time, it would seem." he chuckled in agreement, "And yes, I imagine I'll fair pretty well in my antiques knowledge. However, it's a 'multi-dimensional' antiques shop, so it's very likely that it will house things I'm now way familiar with."

Methos brightened a bit, "But that's sort of exciting, isn't it? Trying to decipher things I've never seen before?"

Especially for him, when so little was ever a genuinely a unique experience.

The man did not look particularly... anything. It was the air about him that caught Annatar's eye. A new sort of power always turned his head, in this case towards something he couldn't begin to pinpoint. Old, yes, but not a wizard. He nodded at the man (for want of a better term) and would stop if given incentive. He did seem to be waiting for someone.

6'4" with black hair to his knees. Ears. Velvet tunic in late Renaissance style (more or less) and all that goes with it.

The man caught Methos' eye, as well. Mostly it was the ears. And the getup was also clearly a little less than modern. His eyes looked up as he passed and he nodded in greeting.

"Evening."

"Good evening," Annatar returned. He was used to getting noticed. "I have not before seen you about. Are you new to the Village of Haurvatat?"

It was not a brilliant conversational gambit, but genuine and logical.

"Relatively, yes. I've been here a week or so." he confirmed, subtly taking in the 'man' before him and trying to glean anything he could.

Methos wondered idly if the man was familiar with the common handshake or not. Judging by his attire and clearly non-human attributes, he might not be. However, if he'd been among the modern people of the village he'd more than likely learned a few things, even if he hadn't been familiar with the custom previously. Hence the reason Methos then held out his hand.

"Adam Pierson, pleasure to meet your acquaintance."
