WHO: Kenzi, Gilbert and maybe a Piccolo?
WHERE: Kenzi and Piccolo's place
WHEN: 2/20; evening
WARNINGS: Drunk Kenzi...
SUMMARY: Kenzi drunk dialed Gil and he decided to check on her.
FORMAT: Quickthings

[Well that was embarrassing! Kenzi had, for a moment, forgot where she was and thought she was calling Bo. Instead she got Gil, talk about rude wake up to reality. She hung up quickly because she didn't want to explain she called because she thought she was calling Bo. God, she missed her best friend. Admitting it to people just made it hurt more.

At least that's over now, right? She won't have to explain anything.

She flops down on the couch with some chips and starts flipping through the channels. She just wants to find something boring to watch and fall asleep now.]

[wisecracked]

He was pretty angry. And I don't blame him any. I wouldn't want to ever see me again if I were him.

[invoking]

What if you explained it to him?

[ Then he wonders... would Oz hate him if he found out he hid the fact it was his father who cast him into the Abyss? Or that Gil had pointed his gun at him twice? ]

[wisecracked]

I can't. Not without telling him about the Fae and I'm not allowed to tell anyone about that. If I do I'll end up Fae food or have my memory wiped of everything or something.

[invoking]

[ He frowns. ]

And you would lose Bo. [ A sigh. ] Your world sounds just as complicated.

[wisecracked]

Yeah...no matter what happened I'd lose Bo. [And that was the biggest problem for her.]

Only if you know about the Fae.

[invoking]

Maybe one day it won't be so complicated and he'll be able to understand.

[ He wants to say if Nate did hear the story but not understand Kenzi's decision, then he's not worth it.

Elliot had been the same. He didn't understand Gil's decision to run away from the Nightrays. He didn't try and in the end, Gil never blamed him. It was easier for him to remain angry-- but safe. ]

[wisecracked]

[Kenzi gives a soft laugh.] You sound like Hale and his hopes that one day Fae can live with humans knowing about them and nothing bad happening.

[She doubts she'll live to see that day. If it comes it won't come until long after she's dead.]

[invoking]

Is it so bad to hope for something like that?

[wisecracked]

Fae feed on humans. And as it is the two sides can't get along. If that day comes I probably won't be around to see it.

I'd like to see it happen. And if anyone could make it happen I'm sure Hale could.

[invoking]

Hale? [ All these people she mentions, but he has no idea who they are. ]

[wisecracked]

He's a siren that works on the police force with Dyson. He's cool and has the absolute best cure for a hangover. [She smiles as she talks about Hale but it fades quickly enough.]

He comes from one of the influential Fae families. Like one of the original houses or something.

1/2

[invoking]

A... siren? [ Isn't that a female legend? ]

2/2

[invoking]

[ He moves back to his seat then. ]

Do you mean like nobility? They have that?

[wisecracked]

Yeah. [He took after his mother, much to his father's dismay.]

Fae like tradition and a lot of the families stick to the old ways. Meaning they don't like humans for anything other than food or pets. But Hale isn't like that.

[invoking]

Where did they come from? Do you know?

[wisecracked]

Lauren blabbered on about Fae being an evolutionary branch that predate mankind. So uh, no one knows.

[invoking]

Oh... science? That's beyond me.

[wisecracked]

Welcome to my world. Lauren is full of it! It's like she can't talk to someone like a normal person it has to be all science nonsense. And yet Bo wets herself over it. It's gross.

She's also the worst doctor ever. Who the hell brings a medical kit but doesn't have anything that can actually save a life in it?

[invoking]

[ Bwuh. ]

I don't know...?

[wisecracked]

No, seriously. She didn't even bring anything to make a splint for Vex's arm. Granted Vex is an ass so him going without it is fine. But I was bleeding to death and all she could do was hold some gauze on the wound and hope the bleeding stopped because she couldn't be arsed to put anything worth while in her medical kit!

She's lucky Hale was there otherwise I would have found a way to haunt her. [She gives a huff. Never mind the fact that it was Lauren's idea for Hale to use his whistle on a high enough frequency to cauterize the wound to begin with.]

[invoking]

[ He shakes his head while waving his hands. ]

I don't know who these people are...

But when you're bleeding, you're supposed to hold gauze to the wound. You can't just move a bleeding person so easily!

[wisecracked]

Gil, even the gauze wasn't doing anything for me. The bleeding wouldn't stop. I was pretty sure I was going to die.

[invoking]

But you didn't.

[ He pauses. ]

What happened?

[wisecracked]

Hale was able to seal up the wound with his whistle. We got Bo, everyone else, went back to the Dál and then I ended up back here.

[invoking]

What do you mean by his "whistle"? [ He doesn't understand half these words.

And again, he pauses as something else comes to mind. ]

The Porter brought you back immediately after? Were you alright?
