4th Shot [Video]

[Rip tilts her phone towards her from arms length. It's resting on a table and it seems a certain huntress is sitting outside on a balcony somewhere in Genessia City. The night is a beautiful one as far as she's concerned so why bother staying inside? She was studying her phone as she toyed with a chain around her neck with a sapphire looking charm on it. The charm matched a steel bracelet she was wearing with a similar glass bauble set into it.

She leaned forward, not caring if anyone saw down her dress shirt with its first four buttons undone. Rip was relaxed right now...and she had a few questions.]

I've been thinking about getting a job to ease my restlessness. But the problem is, what is out there that I would be good at.

[She shifts a little and there's a note pad at her elbow with a list of things on it. Job's she's had in the past....Among the list are 'Butcher', 'Gun seller', 'Hunter', 'Leather shop owner', 'bondage gear and leather working', 'Sniper', 'Military officer' and as a joke 'Hellsing Pest'. She glances towards the list and moves it more into view as she looks it over. Also on the list were a few things she would like to do. Such as, sing and open her own leather shop again. She liked doing both of those and admittedly missed her old shop.]

I've been so many things over my long life that it's hard to pin down what I should do next.

[What people should question is what didn't make it on that list. Rip is keeping to the legal side of things, for now. ]

If there's any suggestions, I'd love to hear them~. Don't be shy, I won't bite unless you like it.

Think there's a bloke that runs a company where they jus' look for shit for people. Could be fun an' always differnt.

Oh? I'm all for fun and different. I need something that gets me out of the apartment other than feeding and Augustine~.

[If Namur bothers to look for her, she's sitting out on the balcony of his apartment. It's not like she strays too far these days. Not yet anyway.]

Quite the list you've got there, miss. Looks like you've led a busy and eventful life.

You could say that. Its that list that leaves me questioning what to do next.

[She glances towards the list and shifts it around again to idly look at it.]

I would rather a job that interests me then something just for the sake of money. Otherwise, I get bored quickly.

That's fair. If we're going to be stuck here, at least we can try to be happy or something.

Thought about trying something new? My understanding is that there's little consequence for failing here, so might as well take chances? If that's your thing.

[Sure, he can be off work for the evening. He follows her taste trail outside, and slips his arms around her waist, bunting her head with his temple. Then he nips at her ear.]

Actually I's wondrin' if y' wanna start goin' t' work with me. Been needin' a 'nother manager, an' I wanna get someone could maybe take over for me so I can start workin' on somethin' else. Whaddy' think? Wanna give it a try?

An impressive list. How do you stay entertained with such a long life? Work won't do it alone.

[She turns her head slightly as she hears the door open and can't help but smile as he approaches. Rip leans a little into him when his arms slip around her waist and she can't help but let out a soft little pleased sound at the head bump and nip to her ear.

What could she say? Him being around pleases her as she settles back against him to considered his offer. It could be interesting even if it was temporary.]

I zhink I could enjoy zhat. Zhough, you'll haf to explain exactly vat it is I'm getting myzelf into~.

[She had a decent idea of what he did, she just didn't know exact details.]

Besides, vorking vith you might be fun.

Perhaps, but, trying something new could be frustrating..I hate to fail.

[That was putting it mildly.]

I make sure whatever I end up doing is something I enjoy doing. Besides, I may like having a job, but that doesn't mean I don't take time for play when I'm off work.

Then don't fail. It's not hard when you're talented.

As talented as I am, even I'll admit there are something I'll never be good at.

[And she's pouting a little at that.]

But, my talents are rather.. specific anyway. So, to find something new that fits them is always the challenge.

Ah, but to test the waters; try something new. That's always exciting to push your own boundaries. Still...play is quite important. I'll try to keep that in mind if I ever manage a long life~

[Eliot has been doing his best to be scarce lately. He's sad, stressed, and a bit angry to see Rip's face on the feed. While it would be easy to just flip his phone off again (he's been ignoring calls for days now,) he decides to bite.

Just because Rip asked a question and he doesn't want to be a bad person for not answering. When replying, he's quiet and lifeless. On top of everything, Eliot is getting hungry again.]

Augustine does singing sometimes. You should just do that. You two could have fun together.

Well then, just stick to what you're good at. [He shrugs, letting the suggestion go.]

I've been looking for work myself. My understanding is that freelancing is also a viable option here.

[Well now, guess who she hasn't seen in awhile. She's taking note of just how lifeless he seems an admittedly, she's curious. So, Rip being Rip, she has to poke at the little vampire.]

I know und he has a remarkable singing voice much like mine. Zhough, I'd zhink you vouldn't vant us disturbing your rest vhen ve're togezher.

[Because that hasn't changed..and Rip and Augustine may have become a little more enamored with each other...]

So I've heard.

It's also a possibility. I've even considered bounty hunter at one point. Though the current dislike of excessive force is a bit of a deterrent to me.

[Something he isn't missing: That.

But he's too tired and sad to get riled up right now.]

That's fine. It's not like anything I do is going to change your minds. [He gives a tired little shrug.] One turn of my pocket watch and I might forget both of you. So my opinion is kind of irrelevant.

Testing the waters is exactly what I intend to do. Just so long as it falls within my specific skill set, I'll be happy. Besides, there's always a new and interesting ways to express myself through play afterwards.

[She's smirking slightly.]

I would say play is very important to a long life. How else are you suppose to enjoy it~?

I take it that you aren't the "nice cop," then?

[And that... actually gets her attention more than his usually whining and flailing does. Rip sits up a little straighter and might.. just be staring at him and studying him a little. ]

You're right. Ve're adults so ve can make up our own minds on vat our relationship vill be.

[And she's frowning slightly.]

However, forget Augustine und he vould be upset zhat you haf.

Never.

[She might be smirking a little.]

Though, bad cop hardly puts to justice how I am with prey.

Mm.

[He just gives a quiet hum of agreement and lowers his head onto his folded arms. He's angling the video device lazily as he sits at work.]

It wouldn't be on purpose... I wonder when it'll happen, though. It's just a matter of time. I have no way of knowing who I've already forgotten since I got here... [It's not something he has the energy to discuss any further, though.]

But yeah. Ask him about singing. Duets sound better when the performers like each other anyway.

I zee.

[It's not hard to see he's lethargic and she's almost willing to bet he's weaker to and that might just surprisingly worry her a bit. Not that she'll ever admit it. ]

I vill in due time. Ve've already started to discuss somethings but, zhe last time I vas to zhe apartment, I made a little interesting discovery. One zhat I hope I'm not making again.

[There might be a little bit of an edge to her voice now.]

It zeems Augustine hadn't been keeping himzelf fed properly. Needless to zay, I vasn't too happy vith him for zhat.

[Eliot is silent for a moment. It's troubling to hear, for a number of reasons. Given how much Eliot despises the vampiric need for blood, he's not sure if he should be glad or not. It's reassuring to think Augustine doesn't overfeed or lose to the taste of blood. But he doesn't like thinking about a loved one starving, either.

He lowers his gaze, trying to hide the painful conflict.]

Augustine can have donated blood, right? Winry... [He frowns more, deciding not to talk about her. The thought just makes him feel guilty.] There's a bloodbank in Everglade. We should ask for some blood to bring to the apartment.
