Devil's Nest [Saturday Night]

They really should warn a vampire before putting bricks right at forehead height, Eric decided, grumbling a bit to himself as he stomped into the club.

With raccoon ears and a tail. "You say ONE WORD, Tiny," he snarled, tail lashing, "and I'll kill you."

And that's how Eric found out that his tail could make him fly.

The Devil's Nest was open. Eric was sulking in his corner.

Where the moddable Tiny will serve you drinks. Veeeeeeeeeeeery quietly.

Good idea, Tiny, since there might be quite a few more people coming in from the street outside rubbing their heads and looking exactly like Eric, only less hot.

After another day out and hopping on things, Bruce wandered over to the Devil's Nest to see if he could get something to drink. The nice thing about that place, of course, was that he didn't have to pretend to get something alcoholic.

The bad thing was that he was so used to watching the ground for creatures that he didn't see the box as headed toward the entrance. "Ow," he said. A couple seconds later, he caught the leaf. And then he looked like a damn raccoon.

Now he almost felt like he needed something alcoholic as he settled in at the bar with an energy drink.

What barged through the doors was a rather odd sight; a dark-haired teenage girl riding inside a gigantic green boot.

"LEFT!" she was shouting. To ... the boot. "How do I make you go left!?!"

Bruce turned when he heard the commotion, ready to dive to the side if need be. But until then... "Still learning the controls?"

"I don't think it has controls!" she yelled. "I fell in and it just took off!"

"Jump out. I can stop it," Bruce said calmly.

What? He was riding around in one of those yesterday.

Rinoa considered that for a moment, before asking -- somewhat sheepishly -- "Does that involve breaking it?"

So help her, this was kind of fun. If she could just figure out how to do simple things like, oh, steer.

"I was in one yesterday and figured out the controls," Bruce said. "But I think it was the other foot. The controls might be reversed."

Look, it could be true. The boot looked slightly different. Who knew how people who made giant clockwork boots thought?

Yeah, she wasn't going to wonder too much where the mushroom-thing had gotten the oversized boot, to start.

"Okay," she said, hoisting herself up to the flap of the boot and kneeling on the edge. "But if you just ... I dunno, tear off and go joyriding without me I'm gonna be pissed."

Never double-cross a Princess, Bruce.

Aaaaaand now she was going to leap out, and look especially dumb smacking into the ground.

Bruce jumped into the air and... um... used his raccoon tail to control his fall and better aim his descent into the boot.

That was unexpected.

Once he was in, though, he got the boot to stop jumping, so he hopped out. He made a point to not move the tail this time. That was weird. "You okay?"

"I'm fine," Rinoa said, dusting herself off. "I just failed the dismount, that's all."

She pulled herself up and inspected the boot. "So how do you steer it?" she asked. "Can you give me the quickie tour? What are these, anyway?"

Where the DJ was unwisely playing "Brick House."

Not one word about the ears. Or the tail.

Jessica was bored, so she decided to wander over to the Devil's Nest and see if anything was going on there.

When she saw Eric she had to stop short and snicker. "Is it Halloween or somethin'?" she said. "I didn't think I was sleepin' that long."

"No," Eric said shortly. "I ran into a stupid brick."

"Do you have amnesia again?" Jessica said. "Because you're a vampire, not a raccoon."

Eric glared at her "Go outside and bang your head on the brick out there."

"No," Jessica said. "Why would I wanna do a silly thing like that?"

"Because all the cool kids have raccoon ears," Eric lied, pointing at Bruce.

"My mama said I should never give in to peer pressure," Jessica pointed out.

"And now you're a vampire," Eric said, rolling his eyes. "Do what you want. I think you'll look really good with raccoon ears. Very sexy."

Jessica eyed him suspiciously. "You're just stayin' that," she said.
