Ellen drove up Observatory Hill with Leo and Babette. ((Who was riding shotgun and who was in back, or were both youths in back?)) Ellen- "OK... Babette's red letters, Leo's snake, a cemetery, and a club. Where are your mortal dwellings, ladies?"
Leo's was pretty far away in the Brownstones, Babette's was a quick jaunt to south downtown ((if I remember that right)).

Babette took shotgun for several reasons, which are listed in convenient numerical order below!
1) She didn't want Ellen to feel like a chauffeur. 2) Shotgun was comfortable and provided ample leg room. 3) She wanted to practice illusion magic using the rearview mirror, even though the rearview mirror should be used for driving purposes!
"I live downtown, at [appropriate southside address!]. It's a shady place, but adversity builds character. Um ... FYI. My neighbor in 403 is probably a supernatural beast. Yeah. A battle may ensue if he dislikes vampires."

Leo mainly chose backseat for the extra room to lay down. "I guess we can hit up the club last, since we will be there for like, awhile. Longer if we run into the guys." Instead of putting on her seatbelt like a good citizen, she swung up her legs to lay across both seats. However, she was a tad too tall and her boots were pressed up against the opposite car door."I live at {Insert proper Brownstone address here.~} Babettes place is probably closer. Wherever is the closest right now is fine by me, though."

Babette couldn't see herself in the rearview from this angle, but she could see other things. Could she make use of that? Hey, there's Leo's forehead and hairdo... Ellen- "There was some talk that it would be better to hit Babette's later, so we'll go far first and double back. The Brownstones. Anybody have a favorite radio station?
Hm... Wish we had a Dragomir on this ride. You will look very different from your snake's point of view, and they could overcome that. Francesca just has ... that one lady with the cursing and the violence. Probably... well, never mind that. Demetri will be busy, but maybe I can borrow someone - or get Sarah to come."

Leo was oblivious to the reflection-rustling. "Sarah's pretty cool. Er, minus the duct-tape thing.." Whatever that meant.
"Tristan's a cutie. How about Thierry? Maybe he could show us some kick ass demons, or would we seriously have to give the guy our souls? Because Leo don't play that shit."

Ellen- "Yeah, maybe I should call Sarah."
She fished out her cell phone and monkeyed with it, causing the car to swerve dangerously. Meanwhile, Leo felt a sudden disturbance in the Force, as if somebody was monkeying with light. Her reflection in the rearview mirror had a cowlick, and she knew in her bones that it was not real.

She turned her head briefly at such a feeling, only to see her hair now had a cowlick. "Hey! Don't. Mess. With. The doo." Leo desperately flailed her arms at Babettes reflection in the window, hoping to rustle it's hair into a giant tangled mess. After several moments of this without success, she grumbled and let her arms drop like limp noodles. Damn you, super powers! Y u no werk? "I ain't complainin' or nuthin, but if we are just getting my snake'n'shit, why is Sarah coming? I mean, she's cool and stuff. Even said she liked me! Kickin, amirite?" She heaved herself up and sat on that little hump in between the two seats, resting her chin on the back of Ellen's chair."Tell'er I said Wassup."

Babette cackled and lowered her hands.
"Your hair is safe ... for now." She started fiddling with the car radio to find a classical station. She wanted Sarah to think they were sophisticated and shit!
"Say, Leo, what's that about duct tape you mentioned earlier? Should we be concerned?"

"Oh uh, that? That was.. That was nothing, no worries. Haha..ha.." She decided that telling them both about Sarah's wanting to know how many rolls of duct tape it would take to stick Eli to the wall was a bad idea. She didn't want them to worry, or even make Babette nervous around Sarah. Hopefully Babettes curiosity didn't get the better of her and she'd leave it at that. Leo would tell them eventually, though..
What was up with that, anyways? The more she thought of it, she remembered that Tomasz guy actually said it could be useful information. That made Leo worry. Now that she knew what kind of people they were, she could only imagine what sort of things they were thinking at they time. The thought made her shudder."So, um, Babs. The illusion thing. Maybe you can help me with that..?" That was her poor attempt at changing the subject.

"Certainly. Leo. Don't try so hard. The reflection becomes you. It's like a spiritual limb." "You must embrace the power of illusions. Humans wear masks. We must, or life tears apart our naked faces. What does your mask look like, Leo? Can you even remove it anymore? Oh. What a world. What a world." Maybe Ellen would make a better teacher.

Ellen- "Listen to Babette. She totally gets it... C'mon... ... Sarah?"
Sarah- "Tssh, what could you possibly want, Ellen?"
Ellen- "Help snake wrangling?"
Sarah- "I know that isn't your strong suit, but honestly? I just couldn't be seen in a sex scene with you. Doesn't work for me."
Ellen- "Literal snake. Literal snake. Oh, and Leo says 'Wassup?'"
Sarah- "... ... Wassup?"
Ellen leaned back over the seat causing the car to swerve again.Ellen- "She says 'Wassup?' back."
Sarah- "What was that?"
Ellen- "Just passing it on. Are you available, like, now? Could you meet us in The Brownstones within a half hour?"
Sarah- "... Yes, why not? I'll call when I get there."
Ellen- "Thank you."
*Cleek!*

Literally every syllable that came out of Babettes mouth was like Kohonese to Leo. What did that mean, her mask? "Riiiiiiight.." Shell get back to her friend about the illusions later. "Fair warning guys. I haven't cleaned my room in like, five days. Don't be surprised if you can't see the floor.."

Babette cringed.
"That bad hm?" Didn't rich people have maids? Leo probably valued her privacy enough to ban outsiders from the bedroom. A shame, that ...
((Ready to go!))
