[color=f26522]"Hey boss, I'm clocking out. I got places to be!"[/color] A voice echoed from a small side office. "Alright kiddo, give em hell." It was Craig's usual response to Jessica's declaration of departure. Jess hopped into her car and took off to the Coven. Her car was nothing special, just a grey 2001 Ford Taurus. It got the job done. After a short drive she pulled in to the back of the casino. Jess popped the trunk and got out, locking the doors behind her. She jogged to the trunk and pulled out a long bag that had a strap around it. It was about 3 feet long and very blocky looking. It looked a lot like a case you'd use for a small yard canopy. She slung the case over her back and slid the strap over her shoulder. Today Jess was sporting a grey t-shirt with D20 on it. The die showed the result "20" and under that, it said "Critical!". She had a pair of denim shorts on as well that only covered to about her mid thigh. Seriously, she knew Florida was a warm state, but she didn't expect a bad Indiana Summer day [i]every day.[/i] It wasn't all bad though, as she did enjoy the sun and was quickly getting used to the heat. She walked in after all the commotion died down. This casino was cool as hell, she was glad they picked it. She'd taken the opportunity to look around the entire inside and outside surrounding the casino when they first came here. [color=f26522]"Yoooo!"[/color] she exclaimed as she walked into the even more trashed than usual main lobby. She sat at the table. Agatha seemed like she wanted to say something (5 bucks says she never gets it out.). More importantly, she heard Kayla's interjection as she came in. She turned to her, a smile on her face. [color=f26522]"Like kicking some apparition ass business?"[/color] She was glad when the group could manage to actually decide to do something "witchy". She couldn't deny how much fun the beach was though. As a midwest girl, the ocean was quite the site to her. Jess also noticed that not everyone had made it to the table yet, and Madison seemed especially unamused, she gave a quick nod to Madison after asking Kayla about her business. [color=f26522]"Chin up Madison! Sounds like we might be doin' something."[/color] Emily and Elise seemed as tense as ever between each other. Jessy even felt a sensation that Emily actually had full intentions to attack. [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/507743496686403586/701613021134323853/Elise_banner.png[/img] Elise leaned back away from Babylon and felt very unsafe for a moment. Then Emily chided in with her bitchy tone, saying the usual cliche mean girl stock. Seriously, did she just watch a bunch of early 2000s rom-coms for her personality? Elise of course did not say that, or anything else. She was intimidated by that pair, and didn't doubt that Emily's threat was genuine. She turned her attention to Kayla instead, trying to play off that she had just decided to listen to Covenant business rather than look like the scared little mouse she was. [color=00aeef]"Yeah, what kind of business?"[/color] She asked after Jess. She wasn't sure she'd be thrilled to hear this either, but it was at least 100 times better than talking to Emily. When it came to fighting Apparitions, Ellie wasn't really any good. She usually tagged along as a quick ride back to the Casino. Sometimes she was able to scope the area in question before they left too, but that was only if they were going somewhere she'd been. Elise was taken aback by Quinn talking to her. That hadn't exactly happened before. [color=00aeef]"Of course it wasn't your fault. I... kind of knew your name. I know we haven't talked, but I listen. I also know that you like to work on cars. I can tell by the oil stains and the smell. Anyway, we should at least try to listen to what Kayla has to say, don't you think?"[/color] She didn't bother giving her own name, assuming Sin probably already knew it. It was nice to be talked to though. Well, by anyone other than Emily.
