Pulling up to the freak show building about 4 in the afternoon. Fox was doing an arands for Alan McHenry, who was sponssering the Freak Show.
He was just going to droup off the money to Mrs. Elizabeth Williamson other known as "Libby."

He walked out of his car with an envolope under his arm, he brushed his hair back, and knocked on the door.

 

Libby
Variant
Oct 06, 2002 10:08 PM
No one answers the door, though if Mr. Indigo listens hard enough, he may hear some applause and cheers coming from inside the building.

 

Alexandir Indigo II

Oct 07, 2002 08:28 AM
He rolls his eyes.
"what a cirus! hmm.."
He walks in slowly and sits down till after the show.

 

Libby
Variant
Oct 07, 2002 11:18 AM
The show's about halfway through. Libby spots Mr. Indigo as he comes in, but doesn't go to see him until after the show. She takes him aside, away from where some of the crowd is waiting to meet the acts of the day. "Good afternoon, Mr. Indigo."

 

Alexandir Indigo II

Oct 08, 2002 10:21 AM
He smirks handing her the envolope.
"Good day Miss Williamson, this is from Alan."
He drops his gaze to her outfit, and lifts an eyebrow.
"hmmm"

 

Libby
Variant
Oct 08, 2002 10:54 AM
"Thank you, Mr. Indigo," Libby says coldly. "Good day." She turns back to her patrons and acts without another word.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 08, 2002 10:58 AM
He follows her.
"Umm..Miss Williamson, libby, one more thing.."
He whispers.
"How is your mother? maybe I can take the two of you out somtimes, I can bring Alex along too if you don't mind.."

 

Libby
Variant
Oct 08, 2002 11:19 AM
"My mother is doing well enough," Libby says. "I'm afraid I'm far too busy to spend an evening in leisure, but perhaps Mother would be interested. I'll give you her address if you like."

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 08, 2002 11:25 AM
He sighs, but decides any company is good company.
"fine, I would like to met her, just to see if shes anywhere near like you..."

He smiled.

 

Libby
Variant
Oct 08, 2002 11:32 AM
"You'll find she's not," Libby says shortly. She goes backstage and writes down the address, then gives it to Mr. Indigo. He's probably unfamiliar with the location; it's far from the better part of town.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 08, 2002 11:34 AM
He looks at it.
"Well I'll just say you sent me...what does she likes to eat?"

 

Libby
Variant
Oct 08, 2002 11:44 AM
"Expensive," Libby says pointedly.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 08, 2002 11:49 AM
He smirks.
"really..I can do that..."
He bows his head, and begins his way of finding the home.

Once there, he sat in his car woundering what to say.
"I'm hello Mrs. Williamson, I'm Mr.Indigo, a friend..no, a aqatice of your Daughter, Elizabeth...or, Hi, no no.."
He went to knock on the door, making sure he had his hair tied back and smoothe, and put a bright smile on his face.

Mr. Indigo is in, to put it frankly, a slum. The apartments are close together and look ready to fall apart, and a rat runs in front of Mr. Indigo's feet, scurrying from a hole in one wall to another hole in another wall.

But the lady who answers the door is quite pretty, a few years younger than Fox, and in fine clothes without make-up. She's still wearing a corset. She looks extremely flustered at the visitor, but tries to put on a cheerful smile (which mostly fails).

"Ah....good afternoon..." She doesn't recognize the man.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 09, 2002 06:58 AM
Stunned by the surroundings, the only pleasent thing is the woman.

"Good Afternoon, are you Mrs.Williamson? I know your daughter, and thought I would come by to say, Hullo."
He smiled as he folded his hands infront of him.

 

Mair

Oct 09, 2002 09:57 AM
The woman, whose hair is gray, but who still has a nice figure--quite slim, moreso than her daughter--looks at Mr. Indigo, rather stunned. "My daughter doesn't know any civilized people," she says hesitantly.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 09, 2002 10:03 AM
He smiled.
"Well I met her though my..well son who works for her.."
He looks down.
"Shes a nice lady, somwhat well mannered.."

Looks at her.
"I'm sorry I never got your full name Mrs. Williamson."

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 09, 2002 10:13 AM
"Greta Williamson," the woman says softly. "And you would be...?"

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 09, 2002 10:15 AM
He takes her hand and kisses it.
"I'm Alexandir Indigo II, a pleasure to met you."
He lets go of her hand.
"I was woundering, if you would care to join me for diner, which ever place you like."

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 09, 2002 10:17 AM
The woman's eyes widen. "Oh! I'd love to." She pauses, then sighs. "However, I'm afraid I cannot."

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 09, 2002 03:21 PM
He frowned.
"Oh I'm sorry, it is a late notice, then maybe some other time?"

He looked at her for a moment.

 

Greta Williamson
Variant
Oct 09, 2002 03:29 PM
Greta looks up hopefully, then down again. "No, sir. I'm afraid that would be quite impossible. I..." She shakes her head suddenly, frowning. "No; I don't care if he burns the place down. Let's go, Mr. Indigo." She grabs him by the arm.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 10, 2002 07:23 AM
Looks conceren.

"Who would do that to a lovely woman as your self?"
He looked back at the place.
"Don't worry I'll take care of it...."
He smiles at her.
"But lets get some food to take our minds off worry."
He opens the car door for her.

Oct 10, 2002 10:01 AM
Mrs. Williamson gets in the car, though her thoughts seem to be elsewhere, and she doesn't speak.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 10, 2002 05:54 PM
He pulls out and goes to a really fancy place.
he opens the door and leads her in.

He smiles his sweet smile.

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 10, 2002 05:57 PM
"Oh," Greta says, her eyes wide. "I'm not dressed well enough for such an establishment..." She takes Mr. Indigo's arm, smiling back at him.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 14, 2002 05:17 PM
Fox takes her arm and leads her inside, "My dear you have so much charm they wont even notice how you are dressed!"

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 14, 2002 05:50 PM
Greta smiles, pleased, but doesn't manage to blush. "Thank you, Mr. Indigo," she says softly. As they go inside, some of the patrons do stare at them. There's several people Greta knows from her prior life, though she doesn't speak to any of them.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 16, 2002 03:43 PM
He sits her down and looks around.
"Nosisy people huh? Well don't let them bother you..."

He picks up a menu.

 

Greta Williamson
Variant
Oct 16, 2002 03:59 PM
"I won't," Greta says mildly. She picks up her menu. Most of the entrees' names are in French, without translations, but she's been to enough places to know what's what. "We could probably get some wine if you wished," she says quietly.

((Hey, I read somewhere that by the early or mid 20s (forget which) police weren't enforcing Prohibition laws in New York, so it's not so crazy for my rich drunks to try to get loaded in a public place. ^_^))

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 16, 2002 04:17 PM
He smiles.
"Wine sounds great! Lets do that."
He snaps his fingers.

"Waiter!"

A waiter comes up.

"Can I help yous."

Fox looked at the menu, yes I would like the finest wine, and this.
((I can't speak french..))

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 16, 2002 04:37 PM
Greta orders a rather rich dish, then looks at Mr. Indigo, smiling. "So why exactly *are* you taking me out?"

((I can't either; don't worry.))

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 16, 2002 04:48 PM
He smiles.
"I'm not from America, and I would like to get to know some people here..."
Looks at his wine glass as the wine is being poured by the waiter.
"I don't have many friends but plenty of money and time."

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 16, 2002 04:56 PM
"Oh?" Greta asks, still smiling. "Where are you from, then? I'm sorry; I haven't exactly been able to keep up with society as I used to..."

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 16, 2002 04:59 PM
He folds his hands in his lab.
"I'm from England."
Takes a sip of wine.
"I have three estates, about to be four now..."
He wants to buy one by the sea, so Maeve and Alex wont be cramed in a small apartment.

"I used to breed horese and raced them, and will still be doing that once me and Alan McHenry get back together."

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 16, 2002 05:21 PM
"Alan McHenry," Greta says quietly. "He's known as a kind man..." She sips her wine. "So that's how you made your fortune? You must be quite smart and talented to have acquired so much wealth just with horses..."

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 17, 2002 01:21 PM
He smiles proudly.
"It was passed down from my father's father, I know all there is to know, and Alan was also taught by me, and Alan married into a well house, Bethany."

He stopped trying not to remeber too far back, trying to erase Donna from his mind.

"Me and Alan had so much fun over in England, it was a shame he moved after his first child."

 

Greta Williamson
Variant
Oct 17, 2002 01:51 PM
"Indeed," Greta says, smiling. "I come from Germany, I'm afraid, but I was brought here while I was still an infant. My family is quite old, and my late husband's was even older."

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 17, 2002 02:07 PM
He looks up at her.
"My, sorry about that, its hard to lose your partner."

He takes a sip of wine to drown the feeling.

"Are you looking for another partner? Just asking.."

Fox felt odd asking, but he was lonly, and wanted someone to take care of, besides Alex and Maeve.

 

Greta Williamson
Variant
Oct 17, 2002 02:47 PM
Greta looks rather surprised, and her face turns red. "I'm sorry, Mr. Indigo," she says softly, looking down at the table. "I didn't mean for it to be as obvious as that."

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 17, 2002 02:58 PM
He looks at her, and smiles lightly.
"its okay to be lonely, hell, I'am! I want somone to take care of, somone to talk to me, and laugh and smile, its okay to want that it is!"

He sees the waiter bring there food.

"thank you good sir."

Oct 17, 2002 03:09 PM

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 17, 2002 03:13 PM
He smiles.
"and can I provide you with that too..."

He pushes his food aside, he was now to nervous to eat or drink.

 

Greta Williamson

Oct 17, 2002 03:43 PM
Greta smiles at Fox. "Then we make a good match." She holds out her hand to him across the table.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 18, 2002 04:34 PM
He takes her hand. and smiles at her.
"Indeed we do..but.."
He leans over to her.
"I'll have to buy an estate here, so you can live in a mansion, indeed of where you are now.."

He winks. leaning back into his chair.
"How about by the sea, the sea is always beautiful."

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 18, 2002 04:41 PM
"That sounds better than where I *used* to live," Greta says softly. She pauses, looking down, rather guiltily, though she doesn't say why.

 

Alexandir Indigo II
Variant
Oct 18, 2002 04:57 PM
He takes a bite to eat, and washes it down with wine.
"Why what on Earth is that face for?"

 

Greta Williamson

"Nothing," Greta says quietly.

 

Alexandir Indigo II

Oct 18, 2002 05:47 PM

"really, nothing at all..."

Greta Williamson

Alexandir Indigo II

Oct 19, 2002 02:50 PM
He nods his head.
"Well we can't all be perfect, we are all made different..."

He waves at the waiter to take the rest of the food to go.

"Maybe we should go for a walk after dinner?"

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 19, 2002 02:52 PM
Greta sighs. "He's more trouble than you can imagine. We had a nurse to care for him, but that was before...the unpleasantness..." She looks up at Fox. "Yes, we should."

 

Alexandir Indigo II

The Waiter gets the food ready to go.

He looks at her with concern.

"I'm a clever man, Mrs. Williamson, whats the matter, am I not making you happy, or is it a fake happy, with which you are hiding in?"

He looks at her, with a frown.

Greta Williamson

Oct 19, 2002 03:24 PM

Alexandir Indigo II

Oct 19, 2002 03:30 PM
He takes a deep breathe.
"It tells a story of sorrow, of happiness, and of love..."

He looks up.

"But for me, its the past and future, both, like the past became the future.."

He looks down and laughs.

"I guess I'm not making much sense huh?"

 

Greta Williamson
Human
Oct 19, 2002 03:31 PM

"You wanna come with me to the beach?"

 

Greta Williamson

Alexandir Indigo II

Oct 19, 2002 03:43 PM
He drives her to the beach, it was half way crowed, but not enough to anoy him.

He takes a deep breathe, and streches.
"Oh, I'm going to buy an estate here...its my home, by the sea..."

 

Greta Williamson

Oct 19, 2002 03:45 PM
Greta sniffs. "It would be better to be somewhere less populated," she says. "Our things would probably be stolen if we moved here."

 

Alexandir Indigo II

Oct 19, 2002 03:48 PM

"Noone, has stolen from me yet, aslong as I'am awake, they know to leave everthing where it is.."

Mr. Indigo makes all the necessary arrangements, while Mrs. Williamson waits politely until all the business talk is done. (She doesn't know much about financial matters, nor does she care to learn; she doesn't think it's a woman's place.)

"Yeah I guess so.."

He makes a right turn.
"It goes like this, when me and Alan was about 15, we ran up on a family of Foxes...to say the least on our horses, that my father had just bought."
He tooka breathe.

"well anyway, that night I decide to play a joke on Alan, being boys and all, so I decide to put the family of Foxes on his bed, and dressed them up as his mom and dad and sister,and well he woke up, with company."

He laughed.
"he called me fox ever since.."

He looked down.
He didn't really put the fox family on Alans bed, it was his power of dreams, once of whihc he wants ready to tell Gret.

They near the apartment. "No smoke, anyway," Greta says, sounding only half-relieved.

((I got that part fine. It was the "once of whihc he wants ready to tell Gret." --does that mean he's not ready to tell Greta about his power, or something else entirely?))

((oh I ment he was ready to tell her about his power, darn did I write that? I'm sorry, I guess I my brain was moving faster than I could type that day, and I think I'm doing it again...))
