Oakdell Harbour, White Coast.

It had not been a great week for Max. Of course, in comparison to other RAVENs she had it easy, but the stress of work had increased with the recent events. What didn't help was the resurfacing of Rori's family and their crazy cult church forming in Baybridge somewhere. Max doubted it was much of a threat but like hell was she going to allow her cousin to be dragged into it. It all added up to a bundle of stress which wasn't always helped by going home to an annoying 17 year old.

That's why she'd chosen to go out tonight, alone. She could let go a bit more when she wasn't with people she knew - most of whom were RAVENs. She didn't want to get drunk around a lot of them; some of them already had pretty bad opinions of her. She was already three drinks in; a shot to get the night started, and then two bottles of beer (which she liked much better, but a shot helped her on her way to being drunk). Where she sat at the bar she'd already managed to strike up a conversation with a person or two. Sadly none of them had lasted long. She was tipsy enough by now to not care, though; she would talk to just about anyone for however long.

Hopefully it would end up being a fun night.

It wasn't long until Veronica stepped into one of her favorite bars in the city... the Geoff Tavern. In White Coast, there were many bars for the tourists (the rest of the places were quite frankly shitty run down holes in the wall reserved for men depressed about how their wives fuck other men), and Geoff Tavern was one of them because it was dark and distant enough for her to find a nice spot where no one would annoy her. It was basically a traditional wooden bar with a counter... but, while she was gazing at the bar counter, something interesting.

One of the RAVENS... Veronica couldn't help but forget her name, but Veronica knew her as one of the less relevant RAVENS. The FF spoke of her briefly, but she only stands out due to her association with the RAVENS that are much higher on the list. That's what made Veronica curious. While she could use her charms to sway this RAVEN to the side of the Family... she would much rather have a RAVEN in her back pocket.

So, all she had to do was get friendly with her... she wasn't sure if the RAVEN swung that way, but Veronica was quite beautiful. Very few people could resist her advances.

Putting on a smile, Veronica skipped over to Max. She completely changed her demeanor to aloof, to bright and sunny. With a smile on her face, and a childlike look in her eyes, she sat next to Max on the counter and said, "Oh hey!" Veronica cheerfully said, "I've seen you on the news before... you're one of those RAVENS, right? I hope so...." She tapped her fingers on the counter and smiled at Max in a coy manner. "... If not, you still look awfully lonely here. What's your name?"

Getting her name was a start... even if she did know the RAVEN's name, she'd act like she didn't just to get a conversation started more... naturally. Get her unarmed. While she was waiting for her response, she was eyeing the RAVEN for any and all body-language.

It took Max a moment to realize that it was her that was being talked to. She turned to look at Veronica, freezing momentarily. Any brain power put towards processing her words went out of the window. Wow, this woman was attractive. And she was talking to Max. A very good looking person was talking to her. This wasn't exactly an every day occasion.

"Oh, hi, yeah- I am a RAVEN. People aren't normally so happily to see us," she eventually commented, regaining her composure slightly. "The name's Max, what's yours?"

"Hailey, it's great to meet cha', Max - mind if I call you Maxxie or something else cute like that? She laughed a little. Veronica gave her the fake name that the Family told her to use only because she isn't fond of slinging around Veronica. She noticed how the girl was thrown off... Is she into Veronica? If so, that would make this a lot easier. The first thing she was going to do was weave a lie. 

"Nice to meet you too, Hailey," Max responded with a smile. "Go for it - whatever works, if it includes at least part of my name." She preferred Max, but she could deal with other names - especially from someone so attractive.

"I owe a lot to RAVEN, actually. You saved my friend Jenny from the mall..." She was making sure that she could weave a lie that Max (or RAVEN) couldn't confirm or deny. It was elementary to the seductress. Her smile disappeared for a moment, as she said "And... have you ever heard of Verthaven?" She asked.

"Really? Well, I'm glad that we helped save your friend." Max looked slightly sheepish, running a hand through her short hair. She'd been just about useless during the mall incident. She was in no rush to say about that, though. "I have heard of Verthaven. A few of my... Co-workers lived through that." It was an odd question, but she answered it truthfully.

"I was also there... on vacation with some friends," Veronica said, weaving a sob story for Max. "We just wanted to have some fun, but then all hell broke loose... almost died there at the last hours... but, I was saved by a NEST Agent. Adam Blackmore. I found out his name after I got out, and after he died." She was just using the information that she gathered from the Intimidation Unit about the disaster. So far, she's got this RAVEN wrapped around her finger....

Veronica sighed, before she put on a chipper smile. "... But, that's all in the past now. I decided that, from here on in, I'm going to make every second count!" She started laughing. "Since then, you could say that I've been a... ah, RAVEN fangirl?" She started laughing again. "Still, I personally don't get why everyone hates RAVEN - imagine what it'd be like if they weren't here?"

"Oh, I'm sorry," Max responded lamely to what was said about Verthaven. She didn't have very much to say about it. Maybe if she'd been there she would understand better. "Well, you're in a small club of RAVEN fans." Max laughed too, though it was slightly bitter. "I know, I don't really get it either. Well, I understand why criminals dislike us - but normal people? They don't realise that we save their fucking asses all the time and if we didn't exist nobody would have gotten out of the mall. It makes it real difficult to do our job when everyone hates us."

"But, I wouldn't worry too much about public approval," Veronica started off, laughing. "You do your thing, and keep doing it. That's the best you can do, right?"

Veronica figured that it was best to stop talking about RAVEN, and change the subject to Maxine herself. "But, to be frank, even if I hated RAVEN, I'd still have to say you're one of the cuter Agents I've seen." She casually flirted with her.

"Oh, wow, really," Max stuttered slightly - and blushed. There was no way that was true. Hell, most of the other ladies were way more attractive than her. "Well, I have to say I'm not quite as attractive as you are." Max was a bit rusty with the whole flirting thing, it had been a while, but she was getting back into the swing of things.

"Oh my goodness," Veronica said, feigning shock. "Flirting doesn't come naturally to you, does it?" She laughed. "... Well, if I were a teacher I'd have to give you an A for effort." She reached over and gave Max a light twirl of her hair, before retracting.

"I used to be better at it," Max shrugged. "I haven't flirted in years - don't get much time off." She smiled warmly anyway. "Well, bad flirting or not, I do mean it." Max was only just getting to terms with the fact that she was being flirted with... by someone who wasn't even average looking, like it had always been before.

"Well, either way, I am flattered that you think of me that way," Veronica playfully said, and didn't even break eye contact for a second her pronounced green eyes were constantly on Maxine. "... But, it really sounds like you could definitely use some company, sweetheart...." Veronica lustfully said as she got a little closer, and put her hand on her shoulder, and making sure to give Max a good view of her cleavage. 

She winked at Max. "... So, can I buy you a drink?"

Play it cool, Max. It was difficult for her not to get too flustered, but she tried to take it all in stride. "Of course you can." If her brother, or any of her friends from before she'd gone to the Academy, saw her now she'd have never heard the end of it. She used 

"What would you like, sweetheart?" Veronica playfully said. "I can buy you whatever you like. Whiskey, wine, vodka, whatever."

"A vodka and coke would be great."

Veronica raised an eyebrow, but kept that friendly look on her face. "Vodka and coke? An interesting combination, I'd say! Personally, coke goes better with rum in my opinion, but to each their own, right?" She playfully said before she faced the bartender, with a finger in the air. "Bar tender! Vodka and coke please!" 

Nodding his head, it wasn't long until he came back with the combination. Which had more coke than vodka. Grabbing onto it, Veronica slid it over towards Max.

"... Don't worry," Veronica said, "I didn't put too many roofies in it!" She made that joke to ease the tension a little bit... and build up that "harmless" pixie-girl vibe she's been building up.

"So, could you tell me about the real Maxxie?" Veronica playfully said. She was going to direct this conversation in a less than subtle direction - since it looked like Max was going to jump out her clothes and make love to her here and now. "What do you do for fun - other than beating up bad guys." She laughed at her own joke. Before she gave her a suggestive look.

"And... your orientation."

"Hah, I think you'll find I'm quite a boring person - watching television, some stuff on the computer... eh, I keep a few plants and stuff." She shrugged - she knew it wasn't exactly the answer that was being looked for but she gave it anyway. 

"Eh, don't we all?" Veronica said as she leaned back in her chair. "I spend waaaay too much time watching videos about ant-farming, and spiders.... it sounds a little weird, but I've always been a creepy crawly lady."

"As for that kind of thing... let's just say I swing both ways."

"Oh?" Veronica said, "And here I was worried that you wouldn't like me! I've got a lot of charm, you know." She laughed.

"I'm a dirty bisexual as well... most people expect me to stick my titty in the mouth of the first girl I see!" Now, Veronica has Maxine right around her finger. All she has to do is ask the big question... and she'll have a RAVEN in her backpocket - not the Family's pocket, but her own. She leaned in, and got really close to Max's face, longingly looking her in the eye. "Well... maybe I'll make an exception for you."

She flirtatiously joked. Max's face went slightly pink, and her breathing got slightly heavier when Veronica leaned in.

"Well, as a RAVEN fangirl..." Veronica said in between playful chuckles. "... I've always wanted a RAVEN girlfriend, you know. We're compatible, after all... and maybe you can get me an autograph from Maximilian, or Deborah, both would be nice."

She said, before adding on, "... But, I have to confess that I had a crush on Deborah for ages now - that butt is just too yummy - but I can't have a relationship with no privacy!"

Max laughed slightly, blushing. "I'm not sure I can do the autograph thing - I ain't high enough up in RAVEN to just get one on whim. The girlfriend thing, though, that I can do."

"Oh what a shame... I'll have to wait until you're high enough, and then break up with you!" Veronica playfully said, "I'm only in for the autographs!"

Well, probably. She hadn't dated anyone in a very long so she had no idea how it would go.

"And don't worry, I can see were you're coming from with Deborah - not that I've had the same thing, she's my boss after all."

"Ah, don't worry...." Veronica said, as she reached into her purse, and then put it on the counter, sliding it across towards Max. My number. You can call me any time, sweetheart."

Finishing it with a wink, Veronica played Max like a fool. She didn't feel any real attraction towards the girl - because in her eyes, she was no different from the fat slobs that would usually be slobbering over her. Only after her looks, and don't realize she's not just all titty. Disgusting. But, she'll make the most of this RAVEN-girl as she could, then ditch her. Veronica knew she was so low on the totem pole that the Family would only consider her RAVEN canon-fodder, at most.

"Anyways, love," Veronica stood up, and got a little bold. She leaned in and kissed Max on the cheek. "... I have to go now - I came here to talk to someone... and you can say that I got more than I came for. Bonne soirée!"
