The Perk, Sunday evening

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

Angel had coffee, he had his dog, he'd made some handwavey phonecalls to let people know where to meet him -

If only he had music and rhythm. Then he could ask for nothing more.

Actually he was content with the whole coffee/dog/friends thing.

[ooc: If you think Angel called you, he did. Angel's here for his friends but feel free to use the Perk for your non-Angel Perky needs.]

"There's a chance I'm clinically insane," she says. "But no, things just talk to me. And sing. Loudly. All night."

"Anything in particular?" Angel asked.

[fates_jaye]

"Not usually. Anything they feel like, really," Jaye tells him. "There's a rubber snake that gets really into it. And really off key."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"I meant what do they tell you," Angel said. "Though the off-key must be annoying."

[fates_jaye]

"Oh! Um, depends. They tell me to do things, and I do them. Like locking Kawalsky and Alanna in my room. But hey, they got back togetherish for it."

"What are they telling you now?" Angel asked.

[fates_jaye]

"Take the job. They're not very specific," she says, frowning at the lion and ficking its head.

"Did it start when you were looking at want ads?" Angel asked.

[fates_jaye]

"Nope. Like I would look at a want ad?" says Jaye. "It started right before I called you."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"But the only possible job we've got is..." Angel trailed off. "Huh."

[fates_jaye]

"Huh?" Jaye repeats.

"Logan's been saying we should hire an office manager," Angel said. "I've been ignoring him since that's supposed to be his job. But we are getting busier."

[fates_jaye]

"Take the-"

Jaye knocks the lion facedown on the table. "I'll take it."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"We're talking dangerous stuff," Angel said. "Think Fandom but without the few hundred of your good friends backing you up. Plus there's this thing about everyone who helps me either ends up dead or wishes they were."

Which Angel meant, really he did. Only some niggling sensation was telling him that Jaye belonged in LA and it was his job to get her there.

"The lion spoke, bucko," she says. She hid under a chair when Martians attacked. She worries not. "I demand doughnuts on Fridays."

"Could live in the hotel too if you want," Angel said, again because the instinct here was too strong to deny. "Free board."

[fates_jaye]

"Ooh," she says. "Mighty tempting... You know I'm not actually crawling in your suitcase, though, right?"

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Which is good 'cause I only brought an overnight bag," Angel said. "Logan and I are heading back tonight. You've got my number still?"

[fates_jaye]

"Yep," she says. "In my phone and stuff."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Call me when you're ready," Angel said.

[fates_jaye]

"I will," she says. "Later, boss."

And now it's time to deal with the family. Sigh.
