~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/>At the<b><i>Poker Table...</i></b><br/><br/>"<span style="color: blue">You mean you didn't find the "gift" in your room, honey?</span>" The cocktail waitress Darion in disbelief and surprise. Darion shrugged so she called out over to the Casino Pit Boss.<br/><br/>"<span style="color: blue">Hey Vinny! Get Darion his "gift" if you would... just remove the set in his room later.</span>"<br/><br/>The Pit Boss, "Vinny", seem to open a cabinet under his counter and then pull out a small container of some sort. He sauntered over to the Cocktail waitress and handed it to her, writing something down and stuffing it in his shirt pocket.<br/><br/>The Cocktail waitress sat down in Darion's lap and slide the box into place at his portion of the table in front of him, her smile naughty as she wiggled her butt into place and nodded to him to open it up, "<span style="color: blue">Jessica, honey. Call me Jessica.</span>"<br/><br/>Darion opened up the box and found ten thousand caps worth of chips stashed inside.<br/><br/>"<span style="color: blue">You know, I wish I was dressed more to your liking for this...</span>" She said idly as her mind wandered and her eyes traveled across the table full of chips, her grinning becoming wider with pent up gaming excitement.<br/><br/>~~~~~~~~~~<br/>Back at<b><i>the Bar...</i></b><br/><br/>Vega smiled at 'cute' couple as he now referred to them as in his head, "<span style="color: orange">Sure, I got something for ya. You want a menu?</span>" he smirked at Loretta as he handed her a menu of the best food served at the bar, "<span style="color: orange">And yes, it's actually a concoction of all of our best rat piss mixed together. It's what I use to knock out one of our AAs out for the night, can do it in one bottle even.</span>"<br/><br/>His gaze went down the length of the bar, seeing the doc and the two new fresh and young looking women, one makin' googly eyes at the other one would looked like she didn't want to make eye-contact. He continued to clean the glasses as he spoke to Loretta.<br/><br/>"<span style="color: orange">I heard you all were guest of the Fanya's... must be important folk, she's never had so many at once.</span>"<br/><br/>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/>Within<b><i>Fanya's Office...</i></b><br/><br/>"<span style="color: purple">You're early... not that that is unwanted...</span>" Her statement was said after waiting sometime for Duos to settle himself in her private office. When she spoke, she leaned back in her chair with her thighs crossed over one another, her let in front bouncing idly, but her face expressionless for a moment, until she added, 'not that that is unwanted' at which point her lips curled into a wry smile.<br/><br/>She crossed her arms under her breasts which caused them to pillow forward a bit naturally, her gaze attempting to pierce the veil of the person she knew as Duos or Project 19.<br/><br/>Fanya, even before D went to pick him up, had always been intrigued by Project 19. He was the penultimate mystery man. In a way, she was her own mirror though the abrasiveness could be off-putting, given the circumstances, it was pretty understandable.<br/><br/>For Fanya, she wanted to peel back the layers of mystery around him. The excitement of not being able to see under his well tailored veil just enhanced her desire... no... need to understand what was underneath. To see... to feel it but most importantly, to understand it.<br/><br/>"<span style="color: purple">You are here with me... of what I know about you so far, you are here because you want something... </span>" her arms squeezed a bit tighter creating 'interesting' effects on her chest, "<span style="color: purple">So what is it that you want?</span>"<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
