Meeting in California
February 26 (27), 2000

**NOTE: Again I didn't think to archive till we were way into the scene.

Crown Mod: [casual answer] "..He is, Identify.."

Tyne Donelly: *is at ease now.*

Daisy Mae Everson: *can't help but notice the "Simon" on all these men*

Finnuala: ((Glares at that man I live with. I have a half hour about))

Finnuala: Guard> Finnuala Rosher, Justyne Donnelly, Simon Everson, Daisy Everson.

Tyne Donelly: ((stabbs that man she lives with. she now has much loger while he crawls to the hospital..*s*))

Finnuala: ((Cool Tyne! *S*))

Crown Mod: *they seem to test the truth of this and motion forward.*

Crown Mod: *as if communicating silently they inidcate the right room, it's the one NO ONE is guarding*

Finnuala: *Walks forward with a polite nod to them in passing*

Simon Everson: *continues forward*

Daisy Mae Everson: *follows Finnuala and the others*

Tyne Donelly: *nodds at the men. they are only doing thier job, she knows, same as she is.*

Crown Mod: *The door will be open and Ivis is putting on a tie* "..Well, Lance Knight and So many others, Paladin, Dame, Dame..how are you all?

Simon Everson: *salutes silently, right hand over chest, left arm out*

Finnuala: Ivis> Well, thank you. Do you have a few minutes?

Tyne Donelly: *she does as Simon does but doesn't speak until Finniuala does*

Simon Everson: *seems to become part of the paladin wall*

Crown Mod: "You came all this way *points to the seat, not sitting until they do*

Daisy Mae Everson: *her mind blanks for a split second... I'm not ready for this... she breathes and calm a bit*

Crown Mod: "What may i do for you ladies * his texan accent heavy *

Tyne Donelly: *sits on the ground, lotus-style*

Daisy Mae Everson: *takes a seat when so indicated too*

Finnuala: Thank you. We're here because of Seneschal Ho. There has been friction, and more than that. I was sent by Father Quinn to see you after htre events of the past 2 nights with her. She's threatening to seek recantation from us. What I need to ask you is,..Is this normal or is there something wrong with her?

Daisy Mae Everson: *keeps her mind focus on those speaking*

Crown Mod: *Raises and eyebrow* Is there more?

Crown Mod: *set his drink down* being forced to REcant is a .. serious thing.. *winks at his fellow texan*

Daisy Mae Everson: *smiles, feel a little more at ease*

Finnuala: Yes, there's more. ((And I really wish FJQ had told someone everything that he wanted damn it. ))

Crown Mod: [[*evil grins* ]]

Crown Mod: *waits patiently for it*

Finnuala: ((Waiting for a PM or Tyne to remember what was said but I guess it wasn't said after all? *Falls over* )) BIC: I've come to ask you to retain your office at least until she's no longer such a threat to the unity of the Order.

Crown Mod: *Scoffs* I have no plans on being removed from my office.

Crown Mod: "I was simply asking about Rebecca.. Which you seem to have run across her bad side, that's hard, so i asked how?

Finnuala: Furthermore Justin told me simply to find you. I was hoping you'd know why.

Finnuala: Ah, that. Rebecca seems to be able to find a reason to threaten death on just about everyone she meets. Especially her brethren.

Crown Mod: *obviously protective* actually, you have to have pissed her off, she may be brash and hard, but there is few things that would make her invoke her office as a Sencheal On the Lance Knight, she isn't stupid.

Finnuala: As for the how--it started when I asked her intentions for the Templars.

Daisy Mae Everson: *is not looking forward to meeting Rebecca*

Crown Mod: *leans forward,* So, i would like to know why she would do such a thing, because, I've been getting an ear full, so have the other Sencheals,.. and it's enough to have Francis come to your little town..

Crown Mod: [[great picture of liz!!]]

Tyne Donelly: *looks at Finnuala carefully*

Finnuala: Actually, I wouldn't half mind Director Francis coming. He and I have more in common than we used to. Rebecca initally became upset over the presence of some nightwalkers that I knew about and didn't kill. There are good reasons for this.

Finnuala: ((Huh?))

Crown Mod: http://Lakeuddine.tripod.com/Liz.html

Tyne Donelly: ((the pic you did of Liz Auggy. nice.))

Crown Mod: *shakes his head* You do not want John in your town. Trust me..

Finnuala: (I need to fix that still!!))

Crown Mod: *grumbles* I sent you a good lawyer, what is going on.

Daisy Mae Everson: (nice pic of Liz... Finn-p)

Finnuala: However, I'd like to see John. That'll be another time however. As for whats happened, *Wishes again that Justin had at least told SOMEONE what the hell he wanted other than to make her look like an idiot* What do you advise?

Crown Mod: [[don't blame me, justin talked with tyne and jason for 1 hour last night, you'd think theyd have helped and said something..esepcialy about last nights revelations *L*]]

Daisy Mae Everson: *just quietly listens*

Crown Mod: "*I advise you get your act together, and get ready to go head to head with a Sencheal.

Tyne Donelly: ((treis to recall last night..was that before or after the brain freeze.. and I ICQed you and asked, Mod..))

Finnuala: ((Hey, that picture needs fixed and when I do it should look decenter))

Daisy Mae Everson: (*grin*)

Crown Mod: [[clearly, justin and Jason discussed 1) if RRebecca was awakened 2) his distrust of the situation and that he thinks ivis and Julious may be up to something 3)more about rebecca, than just he specualtion they have which is zero, and mental impression of just what went on and her position.. ]

Finnuala: Ivis> One last question. What sort of maneuvering is Julios up to? I hate to think its anything he shouldn't, but .... I was informed you were leaving your office.

Finnuala: *Glances at the others to see if they have anything to add*

Crown Mod: *leans back* Julios? *snorts* julios is annoyed his pet project has a mind of her own. I told him he should never have taken that path, but he wanted a woman to remove the Ventrue spy.. *shakes his head* he was a bit off, Rebecca is smarter than he realises, and with you his best and strongest backers, she will destroy you and justin and then, there will be no resistance.

Tyne Donelly: *listens to this and frowns*

Daisy Mae Everson: *has nothing to add at this moment as she hasn't been around for over a week now, remains quiet*

Finnuala: She'll destroy the Templars. If this is what welcoming women to the ranks has meant, it shouldn't have happened. I didn't go through all of that to bring chaos to us.

Crown Mod: "*lean back and takes a breath* can you kill her? Too late, she's been making steady reports.. black mail her? She's clean as a whistle.. is she CAlls a tribunal, she will win.. *closes his eyes* few .. of us can pass a Recanting.. few.

Tyne Donelly: *looks at the leader and then at Finnuala. clearly has something but will bot brinf it up here.*

Daisy Mae Everson: *raise her brow at Ivis' statememnt*

Finnuala: I couldn't kill one of our own anyway. No matter how annoying she is.

Crown Mod: "..no finnuala, this is Just what happens, has nothing to do with men and woman, it's called ambition.. she's a wonderfull person to know.. but you pissed her off, and you made an enemy ..a nasty one.

Simon Everson: *could careless at this discussion*

Daisy Mae Everson: *what ever happen to forgiveness, she wonders*

Finnuala: She was predisposed to be an enemy. It was a lost cause from the start. And if her grandstanding and hyperpowered childish behaviour is what's desired then I'd be better off dead than following someone like that who has no concern for the greater good. I'm sorry if that offends you for her sake.

Crown Mod: *looks at TYNE * Speak! *clearly a command*

Crown Mod: *look straight at Finnuala* do you always insult people like this? I had a feelig you were nicer before, or are you just blind to the words comming out of your mouth?

Tyne Donelly: *barks out* we could brainwash her! *then looks embarrased at that*

Crown Mod: *clearly getting annoyed.*

Simon Everson: *smiles at somthing*

Tyne Donelly: *it's possible! Wal-Mart does it mundanely every day !*

Finnuala: Ivis> *Lets that run through her mind for a while* Niceness is of no value. It's worn out. But this is the last you'll hear of my opinions on her. It's moot now.

Crown Mod: "..What has Justin been teaching you. You used to be so.. normal. You've been at this too long, you need to rest *swallows his drink*

Tyne Donelly: *is glad she wasn't backhanded for responding to th command.*

Finnuala: *Wonders how Ivis can even consider such a thing* Justin taught me many things, but my opinions have always been my own. I just seem less inclined to keep them to myself lately for some reason.

Daisy Mae Everson: Opinon should be expressed and heard by others. How else will we know each other. Learn from each other? Work with each other?

Finnuala: *Glances at Daisy* You're the nice one now.

Crown Mod: *sets his drink down* I see, ready to enter the political Arena? stopping the tide of Evil gotten boreing *laughs*

Crown Mod: *nods to Finnuala and Daisy*

Daisy Mae Everson: *looks at Finnuala* I am just me, nothing more nothing less.

Finnuala: Ivis> I'd rather catch bullets with my teeth than enter the political arena frankly.

Crown Mod: "Good ole Gal there *point sat daisy* ..You hold the lance, you hold the position, your a woman.. your in the political arena.

Simon Everson: ((did i miss a pm?))

Tyne Donelly: *looks at Ivis. he STILL hasn't said anything about the Ultravioletly-challened of the group.*

Crown Mod: *no he hasn't, no one knows his position on anything, except maybe Julios*

Daisy Mae Everson: Ivis> I would not even try to take Finnuala place. I am not a political minded person.

Finnuala: *Wonders what the point of it all is if the political battle is already lost*

Finnuala: *Realizes he never answered about Julios*

Crown Mod: *and he's never answered about julios either*

Finnuala: ((Points at the Unimind and giggles))

Crown Mod: (runs*)

Finnuala: Ivis> Thank you for your time. If my question about Julios was too far over the top I apologise. I should leave you to prepare for your public speaking.

Crown Mod: "Julious?.. What was the Question again *pours a new glass

Finnuala: The question was, what is he up to? He told me you were about to leave office. He arranged for Rebecca to be my and Justin's lawyer fully knowing all our personalities too well to have believed it would work.

Crown Mod: *smiles* .. mostly, that Rebbeca had a Crush on Justin, he dropped her like a bad habbit, that she get's headace's around the supernatural, knowing your group has them, nknowing when she get's there's headace she reacats negatively, *swallows* that revenge would spring to mind and that, she would take it out on the next woman she see?S Julious.. is your friend, he is also.. here for the order. The order is everthing

Daisy Mae Everson: *thinks Julious is testing the the patience of three very strong willed... strong minded people*

Finnuala: And so Julios pushed this in order to set her and me at odds. He didn't need to do that for my support.

Crown Mod: "..I think Julious is testing ..Just how far you'll all go.. for the Order. Time is Crucial, the alliance must be secured, but when we ally, whos's side will you be on..

Finnuala: *Has a good notion to force friendship with Rebecca in order to throw this manipulation back at Julios*

Crown Mod: Finnuala, he doesn't Want of need your support, *leans back* he wants you to support the order. I think it's gotten away from him, and i refuse to step in.

Finnuala: Who's side? There's only one side. The Order.

Finnuala: ((Must have blurted that at the same moment *L*))

Finnuala: Then, *A touch of humor coming back at last* Here's hoping we're all alive later to support the order.

Simon Everson: "The Order of the Knight Templars.. Loyalty testing..

Crown Mod: *nods to Simon and crosses his arms* rough on everyone.. but, there is still the politics to deal with.

Daisy Mae Everson: *looks over at Simon*

Finnuala: ((Have to go a half hour ago))

Crown Mod: "If were done here, there is a meeting I have to be at.

Finnuala: Ivis> Thank you again for the enlightening discussion. I promise, if we all survive this nonsense, I'll come to see you with actual good news some day.

Tyne Donelly: *tyne stands at attenntion and sees to it that they mostly leave, hopfully without interference.,*

Daisy Mae Everson: *raises from her seatand the converstion comes to an end*

Crown Mod: *snorts* no one ever comes with good news.. Even a baby to bless.. Only that their fighting .. and want me to clear it up. Julious, is the Sencheal of the watch.. That should give most people a clue he's at faul t *laughs*

Finnuala: No, I mean it. It's a promise. You've earned some good news. *Salutes, then gives him a more human and genuine hand clasp, and walks out.*

Tyne Donelly: *looks at Aivs, and promises* when I have a child, yu may bless it. But, this is unlikely, in the days ahead, for a time. *falls quit.*

Simon Everson: *moves over to help Daisy*

Simon Everson: *Salutes and makes to leave*

Crown Mod: "Don't i know it.. *sighs at Finnuala and Tyne, smiles at Daisy and nods to simon*

Daisy Mae Everson: *the mention of a baby only makes her miss her own children*

Finnuala: ((I have to go and work early in the morning. Huigs to all and to all a good night. Thanks Crown Mod.))

Tyne Donelly: *gives a quick, snappish bow to Ivis and goes out on gaurd again*

Finnuala: ((Finn was wincing at the baby part too.))

Finnuala: ((Gone))

Daisy Mae Everson: *smiles back at Ivis* Good day, sir. *leaves with the others*

Crown Mod: ((huggles all.. *snicker. and turn up his evil rating one more notch..for the "next encounter*_))

Daisy Mae Everson: (bye Finn)

**NOTE: Shortly after the meeting... just Simon and Daisy.

Simon Everson: (*leans poor daisy to the calm of the california beaches and surf..*

Daisy Mae Everson: (IC comment) *looks at simon* Don't let me get into politics.

Simon Everson: "Become a paladin..

Daisy Mae Everson: *the will help her calm down a lot, she never stray very far from him*

Daisy Mae Everson: A Paladin? Me?

Simon Everson: *leads her to the beach, he can keep her warm if it get's cold* "..it's the only way out of politics.. or take of field duty FAR away form the head.

Daisy Mae Everson: I'll give it some serious thought. Cand you picture me with a sword? *giggles just a bit*

Daisy Mae Everson: (Cand =Can)

Simon Everson: "chuckles...* no.., but all don't use sword..your better at words..

Daisy Mae Everson: Words. Words will not always get you out of a bad situation.

Simon Everson: "no.. but words can stop you from entering it *puts his arms aroudn her*

Daisy Mae Everson: Or pull you deeper into it. Depending on how one speaks or the listener takes your words.

Simon Everson: "..Such is why i stay with a sword. You are always obvious as to it's use.,

Daisy Mae Everson: *leans into him, he being her universe at this moment in time* Weapon are not an easy thing for me to use. perhaps I should stick to words.

Simon Everson: I think you should stick to words too..

Daisy Mae Everson: *smiles* It's sounding more and more like politics is where I should be... but I think I would be walked all over...

Simon Everson: "not with me at your side. *smiling* I'll scare the others into submission.

Daisy Mae Everson: *chuckles* What a team we would make. No...no... what a team we already make.

Simon Everson: "Your personaly savior? Your paladin? you would have to rise to a position to get me assign to you.. there is one open at the moment..

Daisy Mae Everson: There is? what position is that?

Simon Everson: "Preceptor of the Watch.. Juliou's lower position.. There is also, the Knight Seargent.. Bianca's old position, in charge of all the paladins

Daisy Mae Everson: Okay so what exactly does these two postions entail?

Simon Everson: "Preceptor of the Watch? It's information, keeping everyone infomred, basiclly what you do as marshall of the Thorns,but for the templars instead.. the Knight Seargent position.. If the Champion of the MArshall, the best fighter.

Daisy Mae Everson: Hmm.. Preceptor of the Watch is something I could handle. The information I report would go directly to Julious? As for the Knight Seargent, that should go to someone that has the proper skills.

Simon Everson: "the information goes to Justin..and us.. justin gives it to julious.. but i'm sure julious would have.. other word ~smiles and nuzzles her neck~

Daisy Mae Everson: If I took this postion, I would have to cut down on something, perhaps a few of my classes.

Simon Everson: Your always cutting back.. I want you to be a doctor..I think you've make great life at interior desing too..

Daisy Mae Everson: *smiles* I can always get my nursing degree first... the work on becoming a doctor. I thought about the Interior decortating thing... that would be nice too.

Simon Everson: ~sighs ~ yes.. I would like that.. mostly everthing esle can wait.. if you take the position.. it's demanding.

Daisy Mae Everson: You said taking such a postion would entitle me to a... protector? Could you stand being with me 24/7 ? *smiles*

Daisy Mae Everson: *nods* I would take a more active role in finding our information, right?

Simon Everson: Filtering it, working with it.. You knew alot before? ..but still there were holes..imagine everyone... even I, telling you of what we HAVE been doing.. or not..can you take that.. and yes, i can ask Justin.. for a full time protector.. you could take a Squire.. There are always new ones of us.

Daisy Mae Everson: As long as it not all at once. One can only "process" so much information at a single sitting. With this position being open who has been collecting the information and writing the reports?

Simon Everson: "no one.. and we see where that get's us.

Simon Everson: "I know Daisy... I know. *softly*

Daisy Mae Everson: If I take this job. I'll need to know my rights so i can cover my own bum, and I'll expect a lot from those giving a report to me. Not just a verbal report, there will be written ones too. I'm not a tape recorder I can write a report on just memory.

Daisy Mae Everson: Oh dear, listen to me... it sound like I've already taken the job... *chuckles*

Simon Everson: *chuckles* thinking like a politicition ..covering your own bum.

Simon Everson: ~laughs at the reflected thougths~

Daisy Mae Everson: *grin* I have to make sure what I write in a report can not be use against me or anyone else. It is information, not evidence to used against us.

Simon Everson: *shakes his head* can't think like that Daisy.

Daisy Mae Everson: *sighs* You've seen my reports for the Thorns. I put in them everything I know. That's who I am, and who I am could cause a lot of problems.

Simon Everson: *shakes his head* no.. I married a honest woman.. I want other to come to know this honest woman.. the rest of us can handle the others.. don't worry.

Daisy Mae Everson: I could hurt those I care about... look at what's happening with Jus, Ang and Jason, right now.

Simon Everson: "That's why they go to justin first..and he will determine what others know. And Julious .. is on our side. as unbelievable as that may be.

Daisy Mae Everson: *grins* Justin may not like what I write in some of them either, but I would take comfort in the knowledge that her sees them first.

Simon Everson: ~leans in and kisses her softly~ .. i ..love you. and i turst you, and so do the other.

Daisy Mae Everson: *returns his kiss* I'll talk to Justin when we get back to Fox. I... I can love no other the way I love you... never... as for trust... my life is in your hands. on a daily basis.

Simon Everson: *pulls her closer, remembering their time together and wishes to be like that again*

Simon Everson: *leans into whisper*

Daisy Mae Everson: *blushes, and in answer she kisses him passionately*

Simon Everson: *grins at her blush, getting the exact reacation he was looking for and holds her to him, as if she would escape if he let go*

Daisy Mae Everson: *whispered* You can never truly know just how much I need you.

Simon Everson: *nods slowly, holding her to him*

Daisy Mae Everson: *slips her arms around him... everything esle doesn't matter right now... just them in this moment of time*

Daisy Mae Everson: No more fear... I've missed being close to you in every way.

Simon Everson: *holds her looking at the water*

Daisy Mae Everson: *rest her head in the crook of his neck, just to the side of his jaw, and quietly watches the water*

Daisy Mae Everson: *softly* It's almost like we are the only one on the planet.

Daisy Mae Everson: (one's)

Simon Everson: "..the Ocean.. is wonderfull and we are the only ones here

Simon Everson: *"..it's a beatiful night..but only becuse you are here.

Daisy Mae Everson: It's moments like these I cherish...

Simon Everson: "AS if we are not worried about the ills of this world of darkness?

Daisy Mae Everson: Thank you for coming with me... I didn't want to leave you.

Simon Everson: "AS if you can go anywhere without me now?

Daisy Mae Everson: You're always with me, even when your physically not, but I perfer you in person.

Simon Everson: *Smiles* oh..

Simon Everson: "Silly..

Daisy Mae Everson: *smiles* Nothing is better then you here with me in the flesh. You complete me...

Daisy Mae Everson: *jumps a bit* ouch... I'll pinch back... *it didn't really hurt though*

Simon Everson: *cheeky smilE* will you .. *letting the rush of emotions that threaten to over some him subside* I still mean what i said love..

Daisy Mae Everson: *grins and pinches his bum* Yes, really.

Simon Everson: *jumps a little and grins* woman.

Daisy Mae Everson: *giggles* Shall we head back to the hotel?

Daisy Mae Everson: *heavy accent* why yes I am a woman.

Simon Everson: *extends to her a hand and helps her up* we shall

Daisy Mae Everson: *gets up with his help* Race ya to the curb...

Daisy Mae Everson: *takes off running, laughing*

Simon Everson: *grumble sand chases after her*

Daisy Mae Everson: *slows to a jog, waiting for him to catch up*

Simon Everson: *he thinks about scooping her op..and does.. at risk to his health but he has to, and finally makes it to the the edge*

**(missed a post or two here)**

Daisy Mae Everson: *frowns a bit at the weezing, takes his hand* Room service, and then a Do Not Disturb sign on the door and the phone off the hook. Just you and me tonight.

Simon Everson: *makes wavy hand motions, waiting until his breath his back.. *( i can make my self better you know.. just like that.. instantly.

Simon Everson: *leans into her happy and content*

Daisy Mae Everson: Oh? you can? *she is obviously worried about him*

Daisy Mae Everson: Let's relax and just be...

Simon Everson: "..I can..there are.. risks. ~looks into her eyes* There are always risks, you know my abilities.

Daisy Mae Everson: *nods*... Yes, I know. Do you want to do it?

Simon Everson: "..No.. No undue risk. I'll do it if we need it, let nature and the lord work now ~walks around to get to the bus~

Daisy Mae Everson: *smiles* Okay.

Simon Everson: ~nods slowly and start to walk forward~

Simon Everson: *he is of course, holding her hand*

Daisy Mae Everson: *they stroll back to the hotel*

Daisy Mae Everson: *once in there room, they have the same tender moments they had last night*

Simon Everson: *strolls along.*

Daisy Mae Everson: ~fade to sky blue~

Simon Everson: ~fade to glacier~

Daisy Mae Everson: (*chuckle* See ya... *hugs*)

Simon Everson: ((grins, ))
