The officer twirls his cuffs

And Alanza says "What's going on?"

"What?" Confused.

"Sorry, one moment we're making it, then you go rushing off your make bleieve girlfriend"

Meanwhile...

"You have the right to be sexy, you have the right to know pleasure, anything you rub up against maybe rubbed back against you..." Jessica Rabbit goes into custody. Cuffs and sexy wiggle as Officer Bachdion drags her off

quoting her rights

"Oh, but Officer, surely you'll allow me my emotional-support lion?" Casting a glance back for Vince to follow if he is otherwise unoccupied.

He looks up, and sweeps that way, cloak held up over his jaw like the wrong vampire. “Bluh!” He says!

"No no.. your blood sucking lawyer will have to visit later" The 'Cop' grins "got you all to myself"

"....vampire. I meant emotional-support vampire." And then she has been bodily removed from the room by some very sexy law enforcement.

and then gone!

He follows!

"She's NOT make believe..... and I'm not rushing off, am I?"

"Alanza..... I want you."

"No.. guess not" She moves to kiss him, fickle

"No? Adam looks a bit lost.

"I mean, you're not rushing off" She says

"Fuck no." he takes her in his arms. "So?"

"So... I admit. I'm curious how good you are." She says "Let's find a place"

"Nab too?" he glances.

"If you can find her..sure" A shrug "But don't keep me waiting"

"NAB!!" Adam alerts the chimera, but stays with Alanza.

And yet Nab doesn't seem to be in sight.

That's ok...... Adam follows Alanza.

With hope.

She moves "Oh reckless and unseelie.. oh what am I doing?" She peels off part of her costume as they find themselves going into an empty bedroom

And they vanish to ..have fun

Eventually, Jessica Rabbit returns, flanked by a satyr cop and a leonine vampire, all looking as if they've just had a very invigorating workout. She claims a glass of wine as she surveys the festivities in full swing.

"Lily" has slipped in from the Garden, to collect another bubbly green concoction from Jack.

The redhead purses her lips and makes her way over. "A good Samhain night so far I think. You agree?" She looks past 'Lily' to the dancers as she sips her drink.

"Aye, so it seems."

"Yes..." her tone drifts off for a moment before she continues. "Of course, I do have a bit of vengeance to seek. Against that author."

Eyebrow lifts. "Oh?"

"Mm." A sip. "She has stolen my trueheart."

"Ah... is he finally reading it, fallen to the trend?"

"Oh, it's far worse than that. For some reason, the perverse man has decided to read it tonight. So he is stolen from me twice -- I don't have the pleasure of his company during Samhain romps, and we won't be able to discuss it as he won't remember it come morning. He's mad, I tell you."

"Mad, and maddening."

A conflicted expression.

"Oh..."

"Oh.. tonight?"

She looks almost.. hurt?

"Exactly."

Airily as she scans the crowd. "If only somebody with a true love of literature could convince him that he should read it when he can truly appreciate it." And her gaze comes back to rest on 'Lily.'

A soft sigh.

"I know not if he should. He would not enjoy it."

"You think he wouldn't? I think he might find it...illuminating."

"I... I... no, no I don't think he would. Tis not a genre he enjoys, and the prose is overwrought."

"It is a deeply flawed book, in truth..."

A blink. "The prose is exactly what it should be, I think. It's certainly engaging and...mmm...inspiring. And the author made me care about the characters and what they would do next. I'm no great reader, of course, but I hope I'm not so ignorant as to be impressed by tripe."
