The Machine [Open/Accepting]

Damien had requested to know which person was Monica in disguise so that he could use her if he needed to, even if she didn't want anyone recognizing her. He was making sure to keep Shadow's attention focused on him. "Well sometimes he has these spur of the moment things. Maybe he just wants to be taken more seriously. I just hope he's learned to be less brash now" 'David' said. "He'll probably be put off duty for a little bit so who knows, you may see him in here while I'm on the battlefield. He'll have to stay in hospital for a little while first though".

"Well, I'm not him, so I wouldn't know." Shadow replied. "So... what do you normally do on your week days. Any hobbies or is work the only thing you do?"  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"Well training usually has me beat, but I like to hang out with my buddies. I also like to play chess as I've mentioned before and I like to play sports" 'David' said. In reality, Damien wasn't that good at sports. He never had the body for it.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Yeah. You're really good at chess. You seem more like the intelligent type then the sporty type. What sports do you play? Wrestling?" She asked curiously.  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"No. I like soccer and softball and things like that. Sports that don't require a lot of contact. I'm not as well built as some of the other guys in the army" 'David' stated.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"I see." Shadow replied. "Though I can't exactly see you wearing a jersey." She giggled. "If it makes you feel any better though, I wasn't exactly built for that kind of thing either. I mean, I do have a man's build, but I'm still a girl."

'David' chuckled, then had some more of his drink. "Are you trying to get me plastered or something? I bet that's it. You want to get me plastered so that you can escape and I'll be too drunk to follow you, is that it?" he said after getting another taste of the strong alcohol. He wondered how long it would take before Shadow had some of that 'special drink' that would knock her out. If worse comes to worse, Damien would have to arrest her himself along with his 'buddies' in the limo, but he would see later.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Um... not really." Shadow replied, though it was a lie. "Though I think you probably drinking a little too much. Why? Are you afraid I'd slip out between your fingers without even saying goodbye?"  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

Damien put his drink down, but made sure to keep an eye on it. "I dunno. You're a slippery one. You've eluded capture a few times I've been told" he said, "and at least once before was me".  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Eluded capture?" Shadow said, faking innocence. "My, you are a naughty boy aren't you." She replied. "I didn't realize you liked me that much."  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

Damien chuckled. "Yes, I suppose I can be quite 'naughty' if I have to be" 'David' said. He rested his cheek in the palm of his hand and gave a little smile to Shadow. "What about you? Are you 'naughty' too?" he asked.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Oh me? Of course not. I'm a little sweetheart." She giggled flirtatiously, though mentally she was starting to get a little worried. Still, she figured it would be best if he was a little more drunk before switching to a different topic. The bartender set a drink by Shadow's hand but she didn't notice due to her thoughts.  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"Oh, well. I see then. That's a little disappointing. I always like a 'bad girl'. I guess we can just drink to each other, then" he said, raising his drink in a 'cheers' style. He was trying to get Shadow to drink the beverage set down for her.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Well sorry to be such a disappointment, my good fellow. I only have you, the government, and a bunch of corrupt individuals chasing after me." She replied, lifting the glass that was already in her hand. "I can't be a demon too." She finished, lightly tapping his glass before taking a sip of the glass in hand. "Oh? When did that get there." She said, looking at the second glass suspiciously. She then looked around and saw no one checking her out. "huh... Hey Barkeep, who sent the drink?"

"It was sent to you by..." The bartender started but trailed off.

"Was it a girl?" Shadow snapped.

"Well..." The bartender muttered.

"Dump it." She replied unsympathetically. "I've already got a glass and a date for the evening."
