nun-better.livejournal.comShifting slightly until she got confortable in the pew, Rosette settled her cup of hot coffee in between her hands settled in her lap, and assumed a very serious look on her face. "Okay," she said, with straightened shoulders and a very focused light in her eyes. "Let's talk."
Chrono drew in a deep breath. "Okay. Rosette, do you know who that was yesterday?"
Rosette was trying to be serious, as he had asked, but he was being so strange about the situation that it was difficult for her. "I'm assuming you mean T double B C, and not Pippi or the Doc."
At the sound of that nickname, Chrono winced. "Yes. The one you call...." Deep breath. "T double B C....wait, wasn't it just TBC?"
"I added an extra B for Bouncing. And, yes, I know who he is. He owns the nightclub."
Blinkblink. And then Chrono shook his head. She needed to know what she was doing and she needed to know it now. "Okay, Rosette, listen to me. That man isn't just some nightclub owner. That man isn't a man at all. That man is Lucifer."
Rosette had vaguely remembered something about that on the night she caught his name, but was too drunk to remember. Frowning, she reminded herself of the concern in Chrono's eyes, the strange way he acted yesterday. "...you don't mean..."
He nodded. "I do."
"Get out! You're jokin'."
"Rosette, you think I wouldn't be able to tell?"
Okay, she couldn't argue with that one. "Really?"
Another nod.
"....Yikes." And then Rosette started laughing.
Which struck Chrono much like the dancing had struck him. "What?"
"I totally made the devil put up our Christmas lights. Admit it; I'm awesome."
Chrono balked, wondering how being associated with her was going to reflect on him in the eyes of the Dark Prince. He didn't like what his mind was constructing. "....you're somethin', that's for sure."
