Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane has been hanging out at Macs a lot lately, trying to get a feel for the supernatural community over there..And of course they do good beer there and good food too. It's also where she has picked up some..Interesting rumours lately, rumours that Angel might want to know about.\<br\>\<br\>Its about mid afternoon when she comes bursting through the large double doors, peering around, "Hey Angel, you here?"
Angel has posed:\<br\>Angel groans sitting up and stretching in bed. "Warn a guy next time will you? You know we are nocturnal right?" He asks with a laugh. "Close the door and come in, whatcha got that's got you so excited?"
Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane rolls her eyes, "Yeah yeah, whatevs." she steps in, peering around, "Well gee at least you don't sleep in a coffin.." she smirks, running her hands through her hair, "I think we have a situation..Remember the amnesiac vamp, and the teacher who left a message on your phone? And Buffy's memory loss? I think something big is going on..Met this wizard guy at Mac's. He's also experiencing specific memory loss. We gotta do something. Heck we could get a big payout for solving this."
Angel has posed:\<br\>Angel grins and looks Faith over. "You know Damn well I don't sleep in a coffin." He teases getting out of bed and going to fix some coffee. "Wizard huh? They still exist?" He shrugs. "What's his name, and why do you think it's all connected?"
Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane smirks, nodding with a knowing glint in her eyes, "Oh yes, I know damn well, but doesn't mean I can't poke fun at you all the same.." she shrugs, "Dunno, people don't just randomly lose their memories just like that, and all in the same area. Could it be a demon or a weird spell gone wrong?"\<br\>\<br\>But hey she's not the brains around this outfit, just someone with a colorful imagination. "Do you know a guy named Harry Dresden? He's some kinda public Wizard for hire, got his name in the phone book and all..."
Angel has posed:\<br\>Angel shrugs. "Not sure, name doesn't sound familiar." He pours himself a black coffee. "Coffe?" He offers. "No they don't randomly lose their memories, but any number of things could cause it. Drugs, injuries, traumatic experience. What makes these all related? What do the victims have in common? What makes this a supernatural over a mundane problem." He asks taking a sip and smiling at Faith. "Part of being detectives is asking these questions."
Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane grins, hopping up on the table, "Yeah gimme something strong, hard and dark." she says in response to the coffee. "Dunno, I'm not the expert but hey this happened to Buffy too, right? Just like that, no trauma, no injury.." she snaps her fingers, "Just like that she forgot everything about her relationship with Thomas, and her friendship with Nick..Same with Dresden..It's worth looking into, right? Don't you have books on stuff like that? I mean hey, if this kindergarten teacher is willing to give us a generous payout, we could even make up some shit." she grins wickedly, not exactly an honest type.
Angel has posed:\<br\>Angel shakes his head sliding a mug with coffee to her. "No we don't make shit up. We don't lie to clients Faith." He says with a shrug. "As for Thomas, well good riddance she could do better." He says honestly. "How do you know this Dresden guy isn't spinning a tale to trick us into something?" He asks. "It's worth looking into and we will, however best to always be cautious yea?"
Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane groans and rolls her eyes as she grabs the strong coffee, blowing on it. "Geez, aren't you a killjoy, I was only kidding.." but was she? Mention of Buffy has her smirking, clearly amused, "I guess it'd suck for you if Buffy ever did remember him huh, less chance of you and her getting back together Hmm?"\<br\>\<br\>Faith isn't known for being sensitive OR thoughtful. She's probably looking to get face slapped at this point. "Harry Dresden is some kinda big shot in some parts, some kinda talented wizard I hear. He was also good friends with Buffy..But he's forgotten his girlfriend, some chick named Karrin. Just like that. Ain't it weird?"\<br\>\<br\>Faith grins and nods, taking a sip of coffee, "Awesome, so where do we start?"
Angel has posed:\<br\>Angel shakes his head and tugs Faith close. "First we start with you not making mention of a Buffy and I. She wanted the wannabe vamp she got him but he's weak and useless." He smirks before leaning back. "Second, is to trust none of what you hear and only have of what you see, people make all kinds of claims, until they are validated don't trust them.'
Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane arches a brow, "Youre saying you need more evidence?" she smirks,shrugging him off, "And they say *I* am a distrustful person..You sure are more than I expected." she laughs, "And here I thought Buffy was into you just because of your looks...Sooo how do we prove these claims are the real deal? How do we make sure they're supernatural even?" they don't hire her for her brains, they hire her for her brawn. Mostly.
Angel has posed:\<br\>Angel smiles and shakes his head. "You don't live to be 300 years old by not being careful Faith. That's going to take time and research which is of course what we are paid to do."
Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane nods, slowly sipping her coffee. "Geez, you sure look good for your age. So, how do we go about this? Hit the books, bash some heads?" she groans, "Gotta say, I'm not big on the study and research stuff though, ain't that why you got geeks like Fred an' Wes around?"
Angel has posed:\<br\>Angel smirks. "Thanks Faith but you knew that already." He teases. "Well sometimes we need to research and study before bashing skulls, making sure it's not actually a mortal problem."
Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane groans, "Ugh, thought I was being laid to kick ass, not read books.." with a sigh she hops off the edge of the table, peeing around, "Soo if I help you do research, do I get to play with some of your toys?" by toys of course she means his weapons.
Angel has posed:\<br\>Angel chuckles and shakes his head sipping his coffee yet again. "You and the weapons Faith is that all you ever think about?" He asks with a laugh. "That might be possible though."
Faith Lehane has posed:\<br\>Faith Lehane nods and grins. "Of course, I'm pretty much built to be a one woman army, a killing machine. I happen to love weapons, and it's not like I have the resources that Buffy has.." she rolls her eyes as she says that, still competing with her predecessor it seems, in all things.
