Extraordinary Tales IC

Angel spoke,"you have offered much. If you know my history you know what I really need and want. What I want to work on."

She paused, Then she added," Is this something you are capable and willing to accommodate."
 
"I would be more than happy to assist you with your goals Miss Adams. The formula you are developing shows tremendous promise. I would be happy to fund your research."

Before Dorian could reply to what Mose had said, Maddie turned and looked at him. she flashed a smile showing off a sharp fang of a tooth in her mouth.

"i wasnt dug up anywere...my coffin if I so choose to use one, stays above ground."
and she smirked trying not to laugh at her little joke.

"Anyways...who are you? And if you are oh so curious as to why we are here and where we came from...why dont you go ahead and let us know why you are."

She gave him a look that made her seem impenitrible and ready for almost anything he said in reaction to what she had just revealed of herself.

"Alan Mose Humphreys..." he said with a gruff nod and a heavy new york accent. "Hired on not more than thirty minutes ago for whatever reason Master Grey here though was necessary." He hid all pretensions of distrust in Dorian's character. Although Dorian probably should have known it was there anyways.

"Came down to see who I'd have to work with... The results.. I must say, while startlin' are far from dissatisfactory.... " He glanced at his fingernails, extracting a bit of invisible dirt form under one with his other hand.

"Pleased to make your acquaintance... none the less ma'm." He said with an amicable shrug as he held his hand out.

Maddie half smiled at him just seeing how didnt want to reveal to much of himself. Almost smelling the mistrust on him.
She put her hand into his shaking it lightly.
"nice to meet you as well sir"
and she nicely slide her hand from his adjusting her corset slightly. Waiting for something, or someone to break the ice. Their seemed to be a bit of tension in the room and she didnt want to be the one to say something and break that awkward moment; since she didnt know what to say to begin with.
 
He nodded, figuring the general mistrust of the entire job was well understood by this woman. She seemd on the level, more or less. He figured, if any thing, He might be able to trust this woman a little more than he could trust his employer.

"Charm'd miss.." he said, glancing off to the side and giving his knuckles another good crack. "So, as I said before, in not so cord'l terms, where'd they dig you up from?"
 
She thought for a moment about Mose's question.
"I'm from Chicago. Where I teach History at the University. If you cant tell from my accent i'm originally from England where i spent the majority of my life....until certain events occured, which at that point i moved to Chicago. Mr. Grey somehow found me; we've met before since we know someone in common."

Maddied brushed of a whisp of red hair off her cheek and behind her ear. And then looked at Mose thoughtfully and asked,
"So does that answer your question Mr. Humphreys?"

Her expressions went back to the neutral state that they usually were as she stood with ther nice posture and strong gaze.
 
"I suppose 'at does.." he said. " Chicago huh? From Manhattan myself..." He cast a glance back at her before turning to take an idle look at the windows. "Namely Five Points, on the lower east side... horrible place... but it's home."

His arms folded across his broad chest. He kept a sort of grimly reserved look on his face.

" Never been outside the city until now... figured the neighborhood was hard enough to take care of, why the hell should I be worryin' about the rest of the damn world?"
 
"You should'nt have to worry about the rest of the world but you should atleast be curious."

Thats all she said. as she leaned against the wall with her coat in her arms. She looked at Mose almost as if she were studying him. Before he could see her she looked away playing with her sharp almost pointed nails.
 
He knew the feel, the hairs standing on the back of his neck. He snapped his head to look at her then slowly turned his head back. He knew she was apprasing him. As rightly she should probably have. Mose gave a gruff sigh and waited now for Dorian to give their "Marching Orders".

"Curiosity inn't exactly a virtue where I'm from."
 
She smirked when she saw him look back at her. Her eyes must have felt like fire when she had looked at him the way he turned so quickly. She liked it, he was on edge...but she couldnt help the fact that she was too. She didnt trust these people, for she knew they didnt trust her. But she may give them a chance later on..but for now she would watch and be warry.

She then waited for Dorians next words along with Mose.
 
Angel had stood listening to this exchange.

She looked over Mose then she turned back to Mr Grey, "Mr. Grey I hope you were not thinking of my formula on some one like him. That would be a major disaaster I fear. It would be near unstoppable, at least my last formula. The one before it was a failure."

Then she realized something, "I will need to go bak to my place to grab my notes and more suitable clothes. "
 
Alice looked at the man with gaint blood and spoke to him, "not that I fear your kind. You have your specail abilities and as such you dont need the help of an out side source."

She waited now to see what would happen.

The other new woman seen to b trying to pick a fight with the gaint but that was her business.
