[Lucy is pacing her apartment, wringing her hands as she does. She passes by the piano in the living room and hits a couple of the keys before she turns to the device sitting on top of it.]Okay, has anyone seen Jace lately? He's been gone since Sunday and yes I've checked the hall of missing. He's not there. I'm kind of worried because he usually

[Jace has taken up residence in a bar in the Underground. He has a bottle of scotch in front of him and a glass. How long he's been in this bar isn't clear. But some of the more dangerous residents are watching him. He gives them a smirk that says "you comin' to get me yet?"

It's like he's just begging someone to come fight him.]

Killed huh? [He snorts.] So some angel can drag me back?

I'm here in strictly worried-friend capacity, Jace.

[1charmingangel]

Still not going.

[dulcisnuntius]

You know, you're behaving awfully like you've got a choice in the matter...

[1charmingangel]

Because I do. I'm a stubborn ass.

[dulcisnuntius]

And I'm very bad at taking no for an answer.

Maybe you should learn. Or do angels not learn that one?

[He's falling into the "being an asshole" move.]

Darn, it must be a gap in our education.

[Dulcie finishes her drink and turns to loop her arm around Jace.]

I'm taking you home. It's your choice whether or not you want to be difficult about it.

[And Jace goes to shove her arm off of him.]

Go flap off somewhere else, bird brain.

[I hope you're watching yourself, Jace. An extremely small fist is now colliding with your face with a surprising amount of force.]

[There's a guy wearing sunglasses in the Underground watching you two, suddenly. As in one second he's not there and the next he is. And there's a creepy ventriloquist's dummy sitting on a stool nearby, "watching" the proceedings as well.]

Damn. [And that's said with a slightly impressed edge.] Looks like you've got this covered. Kicking ten kinds of shit out of his emotions and telling them to man up and walk it off like the burliest football coach in the south.

[Jace is so not ready for that. So it connects and he actually falls off his stool. Only his natural ability to land like a cat keeps him off his ass as he lands on his feet, hand on his face, gold eyes wide with genuine shock.

Then there's a guy there and he snarls at him.] By the Angel! What do you want, mundie?

[dulcisnuntius]

[Ow. That hurts her hand. Dulcie is still glaring daggers at Jace.]

Thanks. It's part of my skillset.

[Brief thumbs up.] Cool. [And then he tilts his head enough that it's evident he's talking to Jace.] Your roommate sent me after you, prettyboy. [He takes a folded up piece of paper out of where it's tucked in his glove and unfolds it. It's a printout of a screenshot of Lucy holding up the picture of Jace.] She's worried about you and damn, I mean, you haven't even signed the 8 by 10 glossies you left her, either.

[He throws his hands up in the air.] Did she send a damn army? [He hasn't seen the Network today. He glares at the guy.] I'm not going with you. [Which means Dulcie has a better chance.]
