Mercy Thompson has posed:
It's late at night, still....and Mercy's back in her little patch of West Harlem. She's out in Raven Park on two legs, still dressed like she fell through a thrift stor and then some, and she has takeout coffee with her. Currently, she's sat on a park bench just watching the goings on,eyes half closed as Mercy's sipping her coffee and looking around, watching everything going on.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller is out for a walk himself. He has an apartment over in hells kitchen, but does go on walk about through the city at times. If he is going to be living here it is good to know the city, and being who he is, he does not worry to much about running into problems while out and about.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy stretches her legs out and sets the coffee down with a look around again. It's almost like she's on edge and fighting to keep calm. Something has her rattled, and she's keeping calm by way of coffee.....as she looks around yet again. She finally gets up and begins walking, coffee in hand.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller blinks a bit as he sees the Mechanic. He will look over and upon seeing her, waves a hand to her walking over "Mercy from the garage right?" he asks to make sure she is who he thinks he is. He notices the nervous energy and says "Everything ok?"

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy waves and nods. "Yeah that's me" Mercy says, though her name's not anywhere on her borrowed clothes. Still, Mercy smiles, glad to see a friendly face that won't kill her. "I'm okay, just had a bad time earlier" Mercy says and sips her coffee. "I just ran into a little trouble while tracking one of my supppliers" Mercy says and stretches. "It's complicated, though" she says and looks relieved at least.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller frowns, and says "You going to be ok, need some help with something? He will ask "You hooked me up, if something i can do to help just let me know." He will offer her a smile.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
"Finding me cheap parts" Mercy says and begins explaining what happened. "I went to track down one of my suppliers. Turns out he was running a chop shop. But" she says walking over to a patch of grass and sitting back, propping herself up on her elbows. "Put it this way. You know I said don't worry about the chain. If I bought that from Harley, it'd be what..., fifteen hundred, or more. That's most of my paycheck gone on a chain. Yeah I bought from a chop shop, but I got to make ends meet" Mercy says....so much for her hard and fast policy on not breaking the law. "So I went to see why he hadn't returned my calls. Got there, found everyone had been slaughtered. Hurled my guts up and found I had company. Guy in a white vest tortureing for information" Mercy says simply, matter of fact, really.... "Ran into another wolf, too. Both of them seemed to think it was fine to slaughter a lot of people just going about their day just because they are on the wrong side of the law. Now I need to find a new supplier who won't suddenly die, and I can actually afford, you know?" Mercy asks, reaching back to untie her hair again...she'd tied it back between driving home, and walking out here.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller frowns a bit as he hears this listening to the whole story. "Well, not sure, how I feel about the chain coming from a chop shop, but they didn't deserve to be killed that for damn sure." He will move squatting to look at her easier "Another wolf?

Mercy Thompson has posed:
"Yeah. Bigby was his name. I heard him explain it. Oh no no, the chain wasn't from a chop shop. I just buy a few parts when they are too expensive from Vee Dub or Porsche or Opel or whoever, especially older ones" Mercy says, stretching out again. "Put it this way. If I have to pik between keeping my lights on, or buying one part and going under. I'll take the cheap, if grey area, parts so I can earn a living" Mercy says with a nod. Business 101. Make enough to stay in business. "What've you been up to?" she asks, more curious than anything else really. Maybe a dash of politeness as far as conversation goes, too.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller shrugs a bit and says "Working mostly, had to work tonight at the club, but was not tired when I got off work so thought I would get to know the city a bit more. I occasionally go for a walk late at night. Hitting around here or sometime central park. I get a few looks here, but I figure might help people notice me, and less likely to cause trouble.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy looks amused for a moment and tilts her head a little. "See, aren't subways great?" she asks with a knowing smile. "You like to stroll around the city. Well nobody's going to pick a fight with you really....well, no, I take that back. If they're smart" Mercy says and shrugs. "Though, really...smart, this city don't go together all the time" she adds and chuckles. "So. Any advice on the city? I mostly stick around here really" she shrugs and gestures around. "It's pretty in the daytime" she admits, looking around more.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller says, "I aint sure to be honest, I have only been here a couple of months myself. I would say might want to keep an eye out around the garage, want me to come over and check on you and it occasionally, make sure no one is giving you any hassle?""

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy nods. "Sure if you like. I got guns and my assistant but somehow I'm not sure that'll be enough. Sure if you want to come on over" Mercy nods, "I could teach you to repair parts as well if you'd like to earn a bit extra" Mercy says, offering work in trade.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller nods, and says "I know a bit but some more would not be to bad, but will tell you up front if you get into more shady stuff, you and I will need to talk a bit. I'm trying to help the Avengers with something and well, don't wanna see ya busted by Captain America or something.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy nods, "Then help me find a cheap parts supplier" Mercy nods. "Well, a legal one that is" she says as she stretches and gets to her feet. "I'm not looking to get busted, but I need to keep a roof over my head, you know and it's harder and harder to find original Ve Dub parts or Porsche parts or BMW parts" Mercy nods. "At least that won't sink my shop at least" she shrugs and looks thoughtful. "I mean. I've tried all the suppliers around Harlem, most of them have some sort of shady connection, right?"

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller hmms and says "I know a few junk yards back home might be able to help but be more liky to find some old muscle car parts than anything foreign. " he hmms and says "I might be able to hit some yards with ya and help grab some parts up from tore up cars with ya.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy nods sagely, "You find me a German car junkyard that's not in, well, Germany, and we can spend a while scavenging parts. Admittedly. I doubt most'll fit in my Vanagon, but..." she shrugs "Details, we can rent a moving van and use that, or something, right?" Mercy asks thoughtfully and gets up checking the time, as she shakes her head. "I'd better get going, I have an Opel to rebuild once the sun comes up, but I'm glad to see you around" Mercy nods. "You ever want to find me, pretty sure my number's easy to find, just call the garage and either I or my assistant will answer" she nods.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller hmms and says "Well I will have to call soon maybe we can do dinner one night?' Is the big man asking her out? it is possible. "You want my number in case you run into trouble?"

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy looks amused by the idea of dinner, though her idea of cooking is simple. But, there's always places to eat....as Mercy nods. "Sure, I may need to call you if I get into trouble I can't handle" Mercy says with a nod. "Dinner, that's doable depending on how work is, you know. I'd hate for dinner to be ruined by work" she says and looks like she's been there before, though....she looks impressed then more amused by the idea of dinner. With that she keeps her coffee in hand and starts walking, tying her hair back wit a hand as she does so....and is heading for the street and her shop, too.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller will watch her walk, taking a moment to look her over as a bit more than a friendly mechanic, and wll have to make sure to call or stop in and give her his number.
