[Someone's going through papers on a desk. It looked like it had been organized, once, but that organization had been gone. Rachel's muttering to herself, obviously trying to find something.]

I know it's in here somewhere - who the hell was going through this place...?

...Jesus, where's Bobby Drake when you need an accountant?

[She sees a piece of paper and grabs it.]

Ah-ha! Oh, wait, this is from last month's payroll. Where's...

Holy crap, is this Goodfellow's old tab?

[She shakes her head and goes back to looking.]

This is gonna take forever.

Sounds like you two get to have an intensely boring night.

[starchilde_lost]

Oh, yeah, probably going to have to go shake it up after, go out, have some fun.

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

Plans?

[starchilde_lost]

Yeah, just gonna go out for awhile.

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

Are you more of a club girl or small bars girl?

[starchilde_lost]

Clubs for dancing, small bars for talking.

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

Brennan and I pick small bars for pool.

[starchilde_lost]

He showed me a pretty cool one when we went out.

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

He cheats.

[starchilde_lost]

So do I.

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

Guess you won't mind then. We only play for fun so I've never cared. Plus if he cheats too blatantly I can always make him sleep on the couch.

[starchilde_lost]

We made a bet - we called it a draw.

Wait - he's sleeping with you? I thought you were just... friends?

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

He cheats at gambling too.

We are. Why would that mean we were more than friends?

[starchilde_lost]

...oh, okay. Um, maybe because most people who are just friends don't usually sleep together?

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

Are you assuming we have sex too?

[starchilde_lost]

Should I be?

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

That's the only reason I could see that anyone would be bothered by that.

[starchilde_lost]

Are you? Having sex?

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

Despite how I may act I do have a sense of loyalty.

[starchilde_lost]

I'm not saying you're not - it's just... oh, never mind.

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

No we haven't. We didn't back home either but we still slept together sometimes. You don't know him or me very well. We have our reasons.

[starchilde_lost]

I'm sure you do, I was just... surprised, that's all.

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

He does it for me. Not really but this will work better. So don't be angry with him. He probably wouldn't tell people because they might ask why and that's my buisness. I have nightmares, mostly about a psionic man...or I suppose what you'd call a telepath. He did things to me, made me want him and never let me go until he died. Brennan used to stay when things were bad. Or when I'd sleep out of my room.

[starchilde_lost]

It's... it's okay, believe me, if anyone knows from nightmares, it's me, like I said I was just... surprised is all.

James was too I think.
