A little bit of fun, and a turn of events :)

J*A*D*E*S


            Darci stretches and pushes open her front door.  It's open.  She hears soft jazz playing and the condo is brilliantly lit.  "I didn't know I had this many lights," mutters Darci.  She is tired but she'd been anxious to leave shift for the first time in a long time.

            "I enjoy light," says Dathan having heard her.  Darci takes a mental note not to mutter, and that Dathan has supersonic hearing.  "An old habit.  Soulless do not like the light."

            He walks to her and hands her a glass of wine.  "Do not laugh, though you might, but that vintage is Vampire Wine."

            Darci grins brightly.  "Seriously?"

            "Of course," says Dathan.  "I took the liberty of asking Abigail what your favorite foods are.  I did not believe her insistence that you were a fan of cheese burgers."

            "Actually," teases Darci, kicking off her shoes, taking a sip of the wine, finding it very good, "I love a good burger."

            Dathan's eyebrows arch.  He watches her expression and finally Darci smiles.  "Ah you are teasing me," he says. 

            "No, I do like a burger.  But I like just about any food," says Darci.  "I was heavy when I was a teenager, but I leaned out around seventeen or so."

            "I have made duck, with an orange sauce I think you will find deserving," he says.  "Salad and a light soup.  I have much to tell you, today you asked me of Quinn.  First, go change into something that is more comfortable."
