[genitrix]

[Hello, Mallow Hallow, it's your resident spooky alien vampire ghost (no, seriously), and she's looking hungry for a good conversation. Wearing a strapless dress that shows off the extensive black spirals tattooed across her chest, shoulders, and down her arms, she's curled up in a comfy-looking chair in her and Kurloz's place, toying with the gold ring in her lower lip contemplatively before she begins to speak. Her accent is foreign, just a touch middle-eastern sounding, but mostly just alien.]

Hi there. In a place like this, it's nice to know that other people share one's interests. As it happens, I've got a major interest in body modification. Tattoos, piercings, you name it.

[She leans forward, looking inquisitive—though it's hard to tell without irises.]

Who wants to play show-and-tell?

[bigbadbasher]

Huh. Well isn't that something.

[_{He aggressively clears his throat.}]

Sorry to hear that, though.

[genitrix]

[She chuckles quietly.]

No need to be. It was a while ago, after all. And I'm living pretty well, for a dead girl.

[bigbadbasher]

Yeah, you're certainly not lookin' any worse for it. [_Leeeeeeer.]

[genitrix]

[She plays coy, offering a smile and shrugging one shoulder languidly.]

So I've been told. I could say the same of you, you know. I like your scars.

[bigbadbasher]

[_{He grins a big, stupid, girl-chasing grin.}]

Thanks. I like your tattoos.

[genitrix]

And you haven't even seen all of them yet.

[She raises her brows like she's challenging him.]

[bigbadbasher]

I'd like to remedy that, actually.

[_{He sounds like he's about 2 seconds away from a wink and a finger pistol.}]

[genitrix]

[She smirks at him, shifting her shoulders suggestively.]

Are you this forward with all the alien girls?

[bigbadbasher]

T'be honest with you, you're my first. Alien girl, anyway. [_Smirk.]

[genitrix]

Well, I'm honored. The least I can do is give you a good, long look.

[bigbadbasher]

[_{He chuckles quietly.}]

That so?

[genitrix]

Mm. If you're nice, I might even let you touch.

[This is almost too easy. But her favorite pastime is flirting—well, second to smashing the patriarchy—so she doesn't even think twice.]

[bigbadbasher]

Mm, I would dearly love to be in the position to do that sometime.

[genitrix]

Well, Sebastian, you just let me know if you get bored, and we'll talk.

[bigbadbasher]

Don't you worry. I'm sure I'll have plenty of free time once, uh... well, once Jim's sorted out.

[genitrix]

Oh, yes. How is he?

[How does she switch from suggestive to motherly at the drop of a hat? Nobody knows.]

[bigbadbasher]

It's hard to get a read on him. He's afraid of me, which is... really fuckin' with me, t'be honest. I'm worried his memories aren't gonna come back.

[genitrix]

I'm sorry to hear that. Have you thought of taking him to a doctor, perhaps? They might be able to help jar his memories, some way or another.

[bigbadbasher]

I haven't. I guess I could try it. Always been a bit shifty about doctors.

I've never seen 'im like this. Not sure how to act around him. He always has the plan, y'know? I just play along.

[genitrix]

Shifty? Don't you trust their medical expertise?

[She makes a little humming noise, thoughtful.]

It's disconcerting when someone isn't acting themselves. I would advise you not to panic. He needs someone calm.

[bigbadbasher]

Eh, it's not even that. Just never real enthusiastic about bein' poked n' prodded. But as far as Jim is concerned, they just ask too many bleedin' questions.

I'm tryin' t'stay calm around him, at least. He's already scared of me, no need to make it worse.

[genitrix]

I see. Well, my offer of help still stands. Anything at all...I could even attempt to cook, if that's not something you particularly enjoy.

[bigbadbasher]

I actually love to cook, but I wouldn't say no t'you joinin' us for dinner sometime. I love to show off, too.

[_{It's implied that by 'us', he means 'me'. And by 'for dinner', he means for 'for one or both of us being spanked'.}]

[genitrix]

[She grins at that, lids lowering just so.]

I never would have guessed.

[bigbadbasher]

[_{He laughs.}]

It might actually be nice for Jim to have another familiar face around, and since y'helped him out...

[_{Jesus, Moran, focus, are you trying to pick up the woman or babysit Jim, pick one.}]

Yeah, I think it would be nice t'have someone over.
