A while later, they were waiting in the car in a gas station parking lot, a bat plummeted out of the sky and turned into a Sarah standing nearby, rather than exploding in the expected fashion. Sarah- "What's this about a snake, Ellen?"
Ellen- "Leo knows the details. Leo, is there room in back?"

Leo shot some finger guns at Sarah as she descended from the sky. Pew pew! "Yo! That was badass."
"I usually keep'em in this glass tank," She motioned her arms around an invisible box, "About this big. No wait-- This big. There should be plenty room for me to carry them in the back on my lap. Or I could just take them both and leave the tank. It's kinda heavy anyways and not really worth the effort, as far as I'm concerned."

Sarah- "Oh, thanks... both? How large are they? Snakes always want to be warm. Are they gonna be total bitches about moving?"
Ellen- "I don't know. You're the snake expert."

"Both as in one body, two heads. They are are about four feet long, give or take a few inches."
"They should be perfectly fine about moving. Hell, they sleep in a new place every night. They like dark places so I usually keep the tank in my closet, but I somehow manage to find them in my boots or under my bed.. Er, be careful around the left head, Theo. He's a biter." ((Don't remember which head is which. Rollin' with it. ))

"Hello, Sarah. That's an impressive transformation." So vampires COULD become bats! She unbuckled her seat belt. As a corpse, Babette no longer needed to wear one, but Ellen's driving set her on edge. She didn't want to fly through a glass window the next time Ellen got a text message.
"Leo. Your two headed snake. It's like something from a carnival. Why did you choose the name 'Theo'? I once knew a guy named Theo. Short for Theobald. He stole my pocket watch. Don't trust men who never lose at cards."

"I named him after Steak's Baby's drummer, Theodoros Brinley. That guy is fiiiine.. Scar already had his name when I got him at the pet shop. The guy at the counter said their previous owner named him that, and it's what he responds to, so why change it?"
"Stole your pocket watch? You kicked his ass, right? I would've."

Sarah- "Well then. Sounds reasonable."
Ellen- "Get in."
Sarah got in back beside Leo and nodded at her. They got back on the road. Leo would guide them the rest of the way... Sarah- "So, Leo... We're in your old neighborhood, right? Is there anybody you ever wanted vengeance on?"

Leo didn't like the way Sarah said 'old' neighborhood. It was starting to sink in that she'd never see her room again after this. She took a moment to think of the people who had ever crossed her during her brief years in highschool.. "..Yeah, actually. This one time Theo and Scar slept in my backpack and I took it to school without knowing. They got out in the middle of my poetry class, and my teacher just about had a heart attack. This girl, I think her name was Chelsea, screamed and threw her textbook at them. Obviously they didn't die or anything, but Scar couldn't eat for a few days, and Theo now has a chipped fang because of it. I was too worried about them to take the time to beat the girl's ass. Can we like, shave her head while she sleeps? Maybe crazy-glue her to the wall?"
"Oh, turn left here Ellen."

Bad end. Her attempt to dissuade Leo from revenge failed. Maybe Babette should have taken a more pragmatic approach, rather than going the melancholy philosophical route.
"Uhhhmm. I thought you wanted to visit your mother. We'll run out of time, at this rate. Perhaps you can send Chelsea a strongly worded letter instead?"

For a moment there, she had nearly forgotten about visiting her mother's grave, having been caught in her own devilish thoughts. "Yeah, I getcher point. If we are going to hit up Rafflesia later tonight, then we can't stop by too many places. Still have to get your letter-thingies. Maybe tomorrow night." She grumbled something about wishing she had her pocket knife.

"Don't worry about those letters. Your tasks are important. Mine just cater to paranoia. If we can't reach my apartment before sunrise, that's life." She drummed her fingers on the passenger window.
"What do you do at Rafflesia, anyway? Dance? Do you feel up to that?"

She leaned forward in her seat to position her head next to Babettes, "Kind of. It's a good way to blow some steam off. Dunno about you, but I plan on throwing down some Leo Charm tonight, if you see what i'm sayin'. Bow chica bow-wow. "
"In all seriousness man, if you don't wanna chill at the club, it's totally okay with me. We can do that pillow fight thing you mentioned earlier. Be warned, I've been told I swing like a grown man."
"..And your shit ain't any less important than mine. Don't think like that dude. It's a total buzzkill." That was.. surprisingly sympathetic. At least she wasn't talking about revenge anymore.

"I'm sorry, Darling. Keep your buzz buzzing. Maybe this will help." She started dancing in her seat like the woman in this gif (not Dr. Who ... his moves are too cool for Babette).
"The world can't handle this much charm."
