you can keep on getting better [open]
Who: Anna Amarande and you!
What: May catchall
When: May
Where: A bar in Cellar Door, other locations to come
Content Warnings: Light alcohol use, conversations about humanity and murder, blood, vampirism
a. if you want, you can buy yourself a drink [at the bar]
[anna's made plans with a couple people to hang out this month. it's not a tense environment at all, and sometimes she can even be seen on the tiny little stage playing some chilled out bass grooves for the patrons. no concrete songs, really, mostly just improv for vibes. when she's not on stage, and most of the time she's not, she's nestled herself down into a booth down near the end. it's quiet, well-lit but not obtrusively so. people around here know her and know that that's basically her seat, so any conversations that happen there are as private as they're gonna get.]
[she's expecting a few people to show up as she nurses a beer that's so weak she might as well not be drinking anything at all. probably for the best that she's sober for these talks, whatever they end up bringing with them.]
Hey. Glad you could make it. [she tilts her drink at her guest.]
b. no you'll never drink like me [for kainé]
[there's always been a few problems with going out and hunting beasts, no matter how confident and comfortable it makes anna feel. no matter how many lives she saves, she's always putting herself at risk of corruption or injury or beasthood or all three, and one of these days it's gonna sneak up on her. all at once, extremely loudly and incredibly close.]
[anyway, when she comes back home this time, it's clear that she's been in better shape. she limps her way into the house, and she's at least cognizant enough to fix her roommate/girlfriend with a sheepish little look as she holds her side. the cloth there isn't dripping yet, but it's clear that it didn't start as red as it is now.]
Motherfucker out there got the best of me. [she's talking like she's not in pain, or like she's trying very hard to pretend she isn't.] I think I stopped most of the bleeding myself. Don't suppose we've got anything here that can help seal it up before I go to the doctor?

no subject
[ Now she can feel herself calming down a little bit more, anyway. In fact, she feels like it might be a more wise decision to remain seated here where she's still relatively in private until she's 100% sure she's fully calmed down.
And being able to listen to Anna more is just a nice extra.
There's a small pause, and then Ange manages to say, a tad more lightly, like a gentle tease: ]
I don't think you're going to make it up on that stage though if you keep holding my hand.
no subject
[she lets go of ange's hand with reluctance, but with a promise that this isn't gonna be the last time they hold hands like this, either.]
See you from the spotlight, kid.
