After escaping Art class and naked (Evil) Ash, Callisto and Jake decided to head to the coffee shop. Jake was traumatized to the point where only lots of coffee would help him keep sane.

(ooc: Callisto - I'm more sleepy than I realised, so this will have to be slow played. Putting the post up anyhow as backdating is bad.)

Veronica & Piper enter the coffee shop after class and grab a table.

"So, what's up? You sounded kind of serious in class."

Veronica looks around to make sure no one is close enough to overhear them.

"Well, Phoebe came to see me last night. She wants me to investigate the threats she's been getting."

Piper nods. "Yeah, I've been very worried about her. But knowing you're on the case makes me feel a little better. You think you can figure out who is doing this?"

"I hope so. She gave me a few good leads."

Veronica hesitates because she thinks she recalls hearing that Piper was interested in Belthazor at some point, but knows she needs to ask the question anyway.

"What do you think the chances are that it's Belthazor? Phoebe told me he doesn't like her living off-campus with Jayne. Do you think he could be trying to scare her into moving back to the dorms?"

Piper lowers her voice. "I thought about that, but I honestly don't think he had anything to do with it. He seems to care about Phoebe too much. But I guess it could be possible. I thought maybe Jayne could be behind it too, you know, to make Belthazor look bad?"

Veronica considers this.

"Jayne is on my list of people to talk to," she says.

"So, have you received any weird letters or anything? I was wondering if maybe the threats against Phoebe had something to do with your family being witches."

"I haven't gotten anything threatening, and, as far as I know, neither has Paige."

"Okay, let me know immediately if that changes."

Veronica hesitates again. She generally doesn't share the details of her investigations this early on, but she trusts Piper and needs some information.

"What do you know about the Junior Achievers?" she asks, her voice dropping even lower.

Piper nods. "I will definitely let you know."

"The only Junior Achievers I know are Belthazor and Lindsey. I really don't think Lindsey had anything to do with this," Piper noted. "I can tell you one thing. I don't trust Angelus at all."

"Do you know exactly what the club does? I've never really gotten a handle on that and Phoebe mentioned that some people think they're doing evil deeds."

She is surprised that Piper doesn't trust Angelus. She only met him once, but his concern for Logan seemed genuine.

"Any particular reason you don't trust Angelus?"

"I'm not quite sure what they do. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Phoebe was right about that. The club seems shady."

Piper pondered Veronica's question. "Considering I never even met Angelus, I could be very very wrong about him. Something just doesn't seem right and I can't even explain why."

"Are you still dating Lindsey?" Veronica asks out of curiousity. She is intrigued by the idea that Piper thinks JA could be evil and yet is possibly involved with a member.

*after collecting her order, Callisto settles down at a table, and rests her head on her arms*

Gods! Why did I even decide to take that class?

"We're not really dating," Piper said quietly. "But there could be something there..." Piper wondered what that had to do with the investigation. "Why?"

"Oh, I was just wondering, you know, as your friend," Veronica says, tilting her head slightly and smiling.

"Do you recall anything unusual happening last Wednesday?"

Piper smiles in return.

"Last Wednesday? Not particularly."

"Phoebe mentioned that the deliveries started on Thursday, so I thought perhaps they were in response to something that happened on Wednesday."

Piper tries to think about last Wednesday. "I can't really think of anything. I'm sorry. Wish I could be more helpful, especially because this involves my sister."

Veronica gives her a sympathetic look.

"The best thing you can do is keep your eyes and ears open. If you hear anything or see anything the slightest bit suspicious, call me or find me."

"I will definitely let you know. Thanks, Veronica, for helping my sister out." Piper smiles again at Veronica, this time in appreciation.

"It's what I do," she replies with a wink.

"So enough about business, what's new and exciting in the life of Piper Halliwell?"

"New and exciting? I wish. There's really not much going on. How about you?"

"Pretty much the same. I spent the weekend working on my article for the newspaper and catching up on homework."

"That's pretty much how I spent my weekend, except for the working on an article for the newspaper part."
