Owner Pose
Selina Kyle It's late at night and perhaps late enough that daybreak may be coming in the next few hours. This is when Catwoman returns to her lair, unusually late, even for her typical outings..Did something happen when she went to talk to Batman about the Cat Lady'a latest plot...? Only time will tell.
Spike He was out on his own since she was busy. What he got into is anyone's guess. He's evil right? There is a fresh bottle of bourbon on the counter in the kitchen and he is counting a few folded bills,"Not bad for a night's work." he mutters.
Selina Kyle The key turns in the door a moment later, and a pretty ruffled Cat woman half stumbles in, exhausted, costume cut in places, and an ugly gash on her arm. "Ugh.." she frowns, flopping tiredly on the sofa. "What a night..Didn't expect the CatLady and her Panther to be trailing me after talking to Red Robin and Sparrowhawk." oh yes, she could do with a long drink, a hot bath and change of clothes.
Spike Spike glances towards you and frowns a little. He studies your condition and tells you,"You're supposed to wear that red stuff on the inside love." he comments and then moves to see if you need help,"I'm thinking hot bath is in order. You get these from the cat companion? Do we need to cook up another potion?" He takes the bottle of bourbon with him and moves to help you to the bathroom to get you cleaned up.
Selina Kyle Catwoman shakes her head and smiles tiredly, "Nah, nothing serious, just ugly and messy. A bath is definitely in order, just need to catch my breath. Besides I think I developed an immunity after taking the antidote.." she glances at him with a smirk and nod towards the bourbon, could use a drink and a back rub though..? How was your night? I trust it was productive?" yeah, she noticed the cash counting.
Spike "Leave ugly and messy to me love. It's what I do." he tells her lightly and takes her, the bottle, and himself into the bathroom. He takes you to the side of the bathtub and starts to run water,"Made a little money and that's always productive." he agrees,"Poker isn't the same playing for money." A pause and he winks,"Don't ask what I used to play for. You'd be terribly disappointed."
Selina Kyle Catwoman yawns and stretches, following, "Mmm, bubbles sound good too." she unzips her catsuit and slides in, not really minding if he watches. "Ooh, you win all that money playing poker?" she arches a curious brow, "Really? Now I'm just curious.."
Spike He laughs and shakes his head, putting bubbles into the bath and replies,"Demons and vampires play poker for high stakes." He replies,"We play for kittens." No apologies, just waiting to see what comes next.
Selina Kyle Catwoman relaxes in the bath, thankful for the warm water rushing over her bruises and scrapes and caked blood, "Mmm that feels Soo much better." she dies pause to arch a surprises brow at the kitten part though "Seriously? Kittens!? Why on earth for? This a demon thing, just because you liked to torture cute helpless things?" why she almost sounds mad..She is the mistress of cats Afterall.
Spike "I warned you." he replies with a shrug, making sure the water is warm enough,"I wouldn't say I tortured them." he quips and shrugs,"Like I said. I play for money and leave the bad things in the past,"I'd wather not wake up on fire so I don't play for kittens anymore."
Selina Kyle Catwoman smiles sweetly, "That's good to know, cuz you know how important kittens are to me.." she sighs and closes her eyes, relaxing back in the bubbles, "Although it bothers me greatly that I have no affinity with the demon Panther. It must be truly evil if even I can't calm it down..Which is rather sad, truthfully.."
Spike "No more kitten poker for me." he assures you softly. Once the tub is good and full he shuts it off. Frowning a little he mutters softly,"So there is something off about the panther. Is it evil or just not enough normal enough, too much magic in it to be influenced?" Despite popular belief, he can be quite the thinker at times.
Selina Kyle Catwoman shrugs, "Dunno. At first, I thought it was enslaved and being controlled by the CatLady, but perhaps it is controlling her. according to Harry, these Matagot are independant creatures that can be summoned and used as familiars..But I guess even assistants or companions can control the ones who summon them. Either way it makes me sad to see such a noble creature twisted in that way.."
Spike "Well then..." he muses thoughtfully looks at the water for the moment and thinks it for a long time,"...Harry have any idea if that could be the case? I know a little about magic, but that's outside my world." He reaches over and gently touches where the scar was blazed into her,"Noble creatures. You are more forgiving than me love."
