Devil's Nest [after sunset]

It had taken Eric several days to get his affairs in a semblance of order in Shreveport, but now he was back in Fandom, trying to figure out exactly what had drawn him to this particular place when his memory had fled him.

...he was fairly sure it wasn't the clinging monkeys. "I will eat you," he said icily the one holding onto his lower leg.

The monkey looked up at him with adorable eyes.

"I've eaten worse than you over the past thousand years," he added, glancing around. His eyes settled on a sign that caught his attention. "Devil's Nest?" he said aloud, moving closer to peer through the windows.

A few minutes later, he was calling Pam, asking her to look into his purchasing a night club in Maryland.

After his brush with the witches, it seemed wise to vary his movements for a little while.

[OOC: Nightclub is closed, Eric is available for all of your broody vampire needs.]

"Really?"

Sookie had been all set to stay warm and cozy in her room until she'd gotten a text.

And then another.

And another.

And so finally, she'd dragged herself out again, ignoring the monkeys that began clinging to her legs as she wandered down the street until she found the establishment texted to her.

"Really?"

"I thought I was hallucinating the monkeys for a bit myself," Eric said, giving her a quick smile.

That wasn't at all what she was upset about, no.

"Why are you here?" Sookie corrected, shaking a monkey off her leg.
texted3times: (cheers)

"Diversifying my portfolio," Eric said. "I'm buying this nightclub."

Aren't you excited, Sookie?

Sookie just stared at him some more.

"...and then going back to Shreveport?"
texted3times: (bitchface)

"Well, I'm still sheriff there," Eric said, "but I think at least for a while, it's better if no one can be exactly sure of where I'll be at any given time."

Stupid witches.

"Oh. So you're...living here," Sookie said carefully. "Or not living here. You know what I mean to say. That's...nice."
texted3times: (I think I'm the fonz)

"I think if you really try, you can have less enthusiasm for the idea," Eric replied, arching an eyebrow up.

"I didn't expect you to follow me home," she said simply.
texted3times: (i smile)

"I'm hardly a puppy, Sookie," Eric said. "Maybe I want to see what drew me to this island to begin with." He grinned at her. "Or perhaps our nights together changed my entire life."

"But you don't remember them," she pointed out sadly. "And I'm a taken lady, anyway."
texted3times: (i laugh at you)

"Was he there too?" He winked. "Perhaps I've underestimated you."

"I don't kiss and tell," she said, smirking and shaking her head as she looked around the bar. "Are you going to turn this into another Fangtasia, or what?"

"Franchising," Eric mused. "Not a bad idea. I think that with the age skew on this island, though, it might be a better plan to open an all-ages club."

"Business might suffer, otherwise. The over-eighteen crowd here is not that into the gothy vampire scene, generally," she replied.
texted3times: (pensive)

"Possibly because they haven't met the right vampire," Eric said.

[identity profile] justwantsquiet.livejournal.com 2011-02-11 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"And you think that's you?" she asked skeptically.
texted3times: (i smile)

[personal profile] texted3times 2011-02-11 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Eric smiled at her. "I'm fascinating."

[identity profile] justwantsquiet.livejournal.com 2011-02-11 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"And modest, too," Sookie added.
texted3times: (looking at you)

"Modesty is very 1800s," Eric said. "Confidence is in now."
