Parking lot at the end of the Causeway, Mid to late Morning

[guitar-and-gun.livejournal.com]

El hit the ignition on his motorcyle and smiled a little as it sprang to life. He backed it out of the parking spot and looked around, waiting to see if anyone else who had insisted on coming along was going to show up.

_{[[Open for the three (four, technically) people coming with El. That they left is okay for broadcast, but not the contents of their conversation.]]}

There was a high-pitched engine sound as a dirt bike wearing a knapsack on the front handlebars and a teenage rider who was himself wearing a long trenchcoat and a long, flat bass guitar case as a backpack approached the causeway.

"So there is no stopping you in the end."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"Inevitable as the tides, my friend."

Rosette was armed to the teeth, all cleverly hidden in various well-thought out spots under her habit. And, in case that wouldn't do the trick, Chrono accompanied her, the gun case strapped onto his back. She took in a deep breath of the air as they arrived. Ahhhhh. Definately a good day for some shootin', rescuin', and conveniently absolved killin'.

"Do you have a way to get there," El asked. "Car or something?"

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

"Uhhh," Rosette rubbed the back of her neck a little. If only they could keep a portable vehicle in the gun case, too. "We don't, actually." She bit her lip nervously. Crap. It would figure a technicality would get in the way.

"Hmmm. That may be difficult. I don't have room for all of you..."

_{[[Whenever Thursday-mun gets up, they can probably give Rosette a ride. One of her character's known quirks is a weird car.]]}

Rosette frowned a little, giving a sad sort of look over her shoulder toward Chrono and the gun case. "Well, I suppose, if I need to, I can just travel lighter..."

[[ *nodnod* ]]

JOhn nods at Rosette and Chrono.

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

"John, you're helping out, too?" Rosette asked with a tilt of her head. Chrono was thinking the same thing, only much less excitedly and more along the lines of grudgingly.

"Nadia is Sydney's half sister," he said, as if that explained it all.

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Rosette blinked, having no idea that Nadia was the student needing rescuing and, if she'd been told before who Sydney was, she was too drunk to remember. "I...see?" Leaning forward to check John's eyes for signs of intoxication, liquid or otherwise? Yup.

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

John raised the visor of his helmet. "So you're wrapped up in this, too?"

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

"By divine intervention," Rosette explained, with a little wink toward El.

"Good morning," Thursday greeted them all.

[guitar-and-gun.livejournal.com]

El nodded. "Good morning, one moment."

He motioned for her to come closer as he put up the kickstand of the motorcycle. He knelt down, put his guitar case down, and opened it up, revealing the staggeringly large variety of weapons within.

"Take your pick. Except for the pistol grip shotgun. That's mine."

[no-toast-thanks.livejournal.com]

Thursday kept to pistols since that was her area of expertise. She chose two to add to the one she already had.

[guitar-and-gun.livejournal.com]

El lowered the guitar facade and snapped the case shut. "Do you have a car? Some of our friends need a ride."

[no-toast-thanks.livejournal.com]

"Afraid not," Thursday replied. Even if she did have her car here, it wasn't the best way to travel incognito considering the unique paint job. "But I did take the liberty of loaning one of the school's company cars." She pulled the keys out of her pocket. "Just in case."

[guitar-and-gun.livejournal.com]

El nodded. "Then could you give a lift to our mutual friend, the Sister?" he said, nodding to Rosette.

[no-toast-thanks.livejournal.com]

"Of course." She looked at Rosette, then back to El. "I'll follow your lead."

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Rosette met Thursday's glance with a smile and a wave. "Hi!"

[no-toast-thanks.livejournal.com]

"Hello Sister. I don't think we've met. I'm Thursday Next."

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

It was really, really, really hard for Rosette to hold back an obvious crack about possible sibling names. "Nice to meet ya, Thursday. I ain't never known anyone with the name of a day of the week before, but I have known some named after months. Sister Rosette Christopher," she offered out her hand, then cocked her head toward the purple hair boy behind him, "and this is Chrono and the gun case. They're comin' too."

"The more the merrier as I see it. If you don't mind my asking, what order are you a member of? My brother is a priest and he'd bother me to no end if I didn't ask."
