Jenny shrugged when John asked whether she wanted to go hunt some devils.  "Da would be disappointed if I didn't, honestly," she said with a grin.  "Shall we, then?"<br/><br/>But Quentin had some reservations.  An older man interrupted, pointing out that he was a knight and that it was his duty to confront evil.  Jenny nodded along.  She liked this man! But John put in as well and she grabbed his hand about the same time another man laid a hand on his shoulder.<br/><br/>"I think perhaps this isn't the time to talk, love," she said quietly, squeezing his hand gently.<br/><br/>~*~<br/><br/>"Danke schon," Erik said with a smile, shaking the Professor's hand then gingerly hugging Anne Marie.  She was still intimidating, but there was something about having another person's nipple in your mouth which made that person slightly less scary.  "Gideon is<i>finally</i>asleep and Sam is recovering well."<br/><br/>"Fantastic," Anne Marie said with a smile, taking Algie's arm under the guise of old-fashioned propriety as Erik led the way to the parlor.  "And this is a beautiful home, Erik.  I take it this is to be your home until the family manor passes to you?"<br/><br/>"Ja," he answered, "but as a heads-up, there are--"<br/><br/>"My god," Algernon murmured, and Anne Marie also pulled up short.  "There's two of them."<br/><br/>"--in New Orleans?" Jackie demanded.  "Ain't nothin' there but swamps and gators.  No fuckin' thank you."<br/><br/>"Samantha?" Anne Marie asked cautiously.  "Have...have you a twin you've forgotten to tell us about?"  That was the only explanation she could think of.  Jackie looked over her shoulder at the fancy lady and shrugged.<br/><br/>"We're as confused as you are, lady," she informed her.  "Mostly we're just goin' with it."
