Caritas, Thursday [7/12]

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe had been trying to hide from the random soundtracks popping up all day. It wasn't going so well.

So taunt me and hurt me,
Deceive me, desert me,
I'm yours 'til I die,
So in love,
So in love,
So in love with you, my love, am I.

"Couldn't you have followed me around with a better damn song?" she demanded angrily.

So taunt me and hurt me,
Deceive me, desert me,
I'm yours 'til I die,
So in love,
So in love,
So in love with you, my love, am I.

She got the zombies put together and unlocked the doors. Once behind the the bar she looked at Tino.

"Quarters?"
"Can we pretend we're using quarters and just drink?"
"Good plan."

It was going to be an interesting night for the patrons of Caritas if this was how the two of them were starting out the shift.

"Doesn't mean people don't care or don't notice," she said quietly as she took her drink. "Part of the whole empath gig." She shrugged. "Besides, you're important to some people who are pretty important to me. Like I said, tell me to shut up if you like."

She pretty much expected that reaction as it happened a lot when she stopped being cheerful and talked to people.

That, and she remembered what happened with certain people when she and her best friend were possessed.

Jack's expression closed off completely. "Pretty sure I'm more than capable of looking after myself," he said flatly. "I don't like people messing around in my head, and I do not like people poking around in there, either, so if you really are an empath? Stay the hell out."

Phoebe's eyes widened in shock and hurt crossed her face before the mask came down.

"I have never and would never do anything like that to anyone," she said stiffly. "I'm an empath which means other people's emotions lash out and hurt if I cannot block them out. I am not a telepath to go into one's head." She shook her head. "I never said you couldn't... oh fuck it. Enjoy your drinks, Jack."

She shook her head in hurt and confusion as she had never heard of Jack Harkness talking to anyone like that and walked away to the other end of the bar and got another drink before turning to help another customer.
