-Around 5 o’clock, just after Abby passes MacLeod, William’s cell phone rings. He answers without looking, and Chief Vandernoot snarls, //“My office, now!”// William doesn’t bother protesting that he’s retired; he simply replies, “Understood.” He hangs up and announces, “We need to go get milkshakes.” Abby turns to head back to King Street and asks, “What’s going on?” Leta guesses, “The angry police lady?” and William nods and replies, “Yes. That’s why we need to go get milkshakes.” Abby mumbles, “I’m so glad I’m already dead.” +Around 5 o’clock, just after [[wod:characters:abby|Abby]] passes [[wod:hunter84:pcs:macleod|MacLeod]][[wod:hunter:pcs:william|William]]’s cell phone rings.

-Abby pulls through the Friendly’s drive-through and William orders milkshakes. They get their order and depart, and then Abby drives to the police station on Gothic Street. She parks, and there is a moment of silence before Veltis turns to William and says snidely, “It was nice knowing you.” Abby replies, “Let’s go,” and Veltis agrees, but grumbles about it. He and Leta get into another argument and Veltis mentions New Orleans, although Leta claims she’s never been there and Veltis is lying. She follows the others into the police station, griping the whole time. The desk sergeant looks up when they enter, and then vaguely waves them upstairs; clearly they’re expected. +Abby pulls through the Friendly’s drive-through and William orders milkshakes.

 Vandernoot speaks to the CSI technician on the scene at Damon Road, and he states flatly, //“This is going to be an interesting ballistics report. We’re digging a musket ball out of one wall, and I’m pretty sure a Tommy gun was used as well.”// Vandernoot curses and ends the call and William, Leta, Veltis, and Abby stride in; William hands her a milkshake. Vandernoot glares at him but accepts the milkshake. She then closes the door to her office and pulls the shades down. Once she’s assured their privacy, she turns to William and snaps, “So, having a bad day?” William shrugs, so Vandernoot growls, “Or at least a busy day. Care to explain the musket ball?” William looks at her blankly, while Leta remains stone-faced.((William didn’t see the musket in the hallway.)) Vandernoot speaks to the CSI technician on the scene at Damon Road, and he states flatly, //“This is going to be an interesting ballistics report.

-William continues the verbal dance for ten minutes until they all hear the loud engine noise of MacLeod’s truck pulling up to the station. A few minutes later, MacLeod saunters into the room and positions himself behind Vandernoot so he can loom menacingly at the others. Veltis flips him off, but MacLeod ignores the rat. William cracks, “Should we call Sam in and get the band back together?” Never lifting his eyes off William, MacLeod asks Vandernoot, “Did Polly call him first?” William gripes, “That’s why I’m here.” +William continues the verbal dance for ten minutes until they all hear the loud engine noise of MacLeod’s truck pulling up to the station.

 Veltis loses patience and snaps, “How far do you want to go here?” William nods and Vandernoot demands answers. Veltis keeps it vague, and says the pair they’ve arrested was helping another group cover its tracks. Vandernoot disparages their efforts, and Veltis retorts, “I didn’t say they had //competent// help.” Vandernoot wants to know how this group secured another one of her cops, and Veltis asks, “What is the most potent and addictive drug you know?” Vandernoot frowns and replies, “Opiates, I guess.” Veltis turns to MacLeod and says, “How about you, furry?” MacLeod retorts, “Opiates and tic-tacs.”  Veltis loses patience and snaps, “How far do you want to go here?” William nods and Vandernoot demands answers.

 ==== Dumpster Talk ==== ==== Dumpster Talk ====
-Meanwhile, down at the Montoya Botanica in Springfield, Anita learns a bit more about Josh’s sister, Serena – who she never knew existed until today – and notes some negativity from the usually-cheerful Josh. She also notes //Abuela// pacing back and forth, and how Del is cheating at cards but Ray hasn’t noticed. Once Josh finishes, Anita goes to cash-out the register. //Abuela// continues pacing until Anita gathers the trash and heads out the back to the dumpster. //Abuela// immediately follows, but waits until they’re outside in the back lot before she confronts her granddaughter. Anita lays out everything that happened earlier with Silas Black, including how he gave up Del for free but is holding Carlos for protection money. //Abuela// mutters, “Idiot. If he was smart he would have done that the other way around.” Anita bursts out laughing. +Meanwhile, down at the Montoya Botanica in Springfield, [[wod:hunter:pcs:anita|Anita]] learns a bit more about [[wod:hunter:pcs:josh|Josh]]’s sister, [[wod:hunter:pcs:serena|Serena]] – who she never knew existed until today – and notes some negativity from the usually-cheerful Josh.

Abuela mutters, “Idiot. If he was smart he would have done that the other way around.” Anita bursts out laughing. 
  
-//Abuela// growls they need to toss Del into a nunnery, and Anita jokes, “There’s one across the river in West Springfield. Right behind the Hooters.” //Abuela// rolls her eyes, and Anita reiterates, “I inherited all the brains in this generation.” //Abuela// admits pretty and stupid men are a weakness within the Montoya women, but blames Anita’s deceased mother. //Abuela// then asks, “Why did he throw holy water at Black?” Anita replies, “They thought he was a vampire.” //Abuela// stares, and then blames Josh for this stupidity – and destroying her store. Anita hotly retorts, “He didn’t destroy it, he modernized it. I can do inventory in two hours instead of my entire Sunday!” Abuela counters, “You wouldn’t have so many //gringos// running around if you had to do inventory!” +Abuela growls they need to toss Del into a nunnery, and Anita jokes, “There’s one across the river in West Springfield.

-Anita refuses to take that bait but when the conversation returns to Carlos, she admits she is considering refusing to pay, regardless of the consequences. //Abuela// nods, as she considered it too. Anita mutters, “I think the reason Black is so pissed is that Carlos and his buddies probably ruined the man’s shirt. Water and silk don’t mix. But at least it wasn’t piss or something.” //Abuela// groans and admits Carlos has thrown his own urine before. Years ago, the accountant Randall Crowe came by the store for his first meeting with //Abuela//, and Carlos ran out in front of the car. Randall was able to stop the car before hitting the boy, and gently admonished him with, “Hey, you have to be more careful.” Carlos got pissed, so he found a balloon and peed in it, and then threw it at Crowe’s car. //Abuela// grumps about having to pay the accountant a higher retainer because of that, but returns to her old gem, “Financial troubles?

-Anita points out that Josh can give //Abuela// a login and teach her how to use the system. //Abuela// eyes her with distaste before spinning around and marching inside. Anita follows, and sees that Ray is winning despite Del’s cheating. During their talk outside, Josh keeps an eye on Del and Ray, but Googles //‘How to get out of paying protection money.’// He carefully writes everything down on paper, figuring he can burn it later. Anita demands, “What are you Googling?” Josh shows her the paper and talks about a group of Italian businesses that banded together and refused to pay the mob – and advertised it, increasing business. However, he admits that’s a long-term marketing solution, and doesn’t help right now. +Anita points out that Josh can give Abuela a login and teach her how to use the system.

-//Abuela// growls to Anita, “Don’t marry him.” Anita protests, “He has a girlfriend, and I don’t want to cross her!” Josh blushes furiously, and then Anita turns to him and says sweetly, “Josh, my grandmother would like you to teach her how to use the new system.” Josh’s look of pure joy causes //Abuela// to sigh and Anita to tell her, “I win.” Grumbling, //Abuela// snaps, “Fine. Show me how this damned thing works.” Behind them, Del drops her Coke on the floor in pure shock.

-Josh creates a login for //Abuela// and shows her the basics of the system. He is a patient teacher, and //Abuela// actually grasps several of the advantages of the database – so much so that she grunts, “Customer discount codes? You can delete those.” Anita protests and reminds her that her friend Consuela gets a 10% discount. //Abuela// says peevishly, “She’s worth maybe 7%.” //Abuela// starts pestering Josh to have him show her various reports in the system, in the hopes of discovering a flaw she can hold over Anita. However, Josh’s system is thorough, and //Abuela// stares at multiple reports – all very useful in running a business or preparing for tax time. +Josh creates a login for Abuela and shows her the basics of the system.

-Josh then shows //Abuela// social media and builds her Facebook and Twitter accounts. Anita decrees that to be a terrible idea, but Josh counters, “If she’s following social media, that’s time when she’s not bothering you.” That brings Anita up short, and she concedes with a grudging, “True.” Josh finds a custom report that breaks down the days he is selling, and finds them much higher than the other days. Anita is unrepentant; Josh is good for business. //Abuela// mutters, “Alright, this all might be useful come the audit.” Anita says flatly, “We’re not getting audited. I took care of that.” +Josh then shows Abuela social media and builds her Facebook and Twitter accounts.

-//Abuela// spins on her heel and demands, “How the hell did you dodge an audit?” Anita replies, “Well, grandmother, I used dark magic.” //Abuela// stares at her, eyes narrowed, and Anita admits, “It’s not always reliable.” //Abuela// demands an explanation, but Anita replies, “Not in front of the children,” as she gestures to Ray and Del. Ray shrinks back as Del gets pissed. //Abuela// turns back to Josh and snaps, “Do you speak German?” Josh replies, //“Nien,”// and then quickly adds, “That’s literally the only German word I know.” Anita roars with laughter, but //Abuela// growls profanity in German. +Abuela spins on her heel and demands, “How the hell did you dodge an audit?” Anita replies, “Well, grandmother, I used dark magic.” Abuela stares at her, eyes narrowed, and Anita admits, “It’s not always reliable.” Abuela demands an explanation, but Anita replies, “Not in front of the children,” as she gestures to Ray and Del.

-//Abuela// demands in German, “Was this sex magic?” Anita snaps, “No!” in German. She snarls, “Remember, I got the sense in the family.” //Abuela// retorts, “That’s relative, look at your competition!” While the two women are arguing in German, Josh pulls up a phone app to translate, but only gets ‘sex magic.’ Del snarls a French profanity at them all, the only words in French she knows. Anita switches to English and asks, “What is the next step? Do we bring him home?” Josh turns to Ray and asks him, “What do you need? Where is safe for you?” Ray shrugs and tries to be oblique, but Josh takes a gamble. +Abuela demands in German, “Was this sex magic?” Anita snaps, “No!” in German.

-Turning back to //Abuela//, Josh says that the botanica has thrived for ninety years here in Springfield. He makes a few insinuations about candles and the supernatural that Ray notices. Josh keeps it formal, without any overt weirdness, but asks //Abuela//, “How much do you know?” //Abuela// hesitates, but realizes almost everyone else here knows something – except for poor Del. She brusquely tells Del to go outside; Del protests but her grandmother is ruthless and refuses to budge. Anita adds, “Out! Don’t disappear!” Del stomps outside angrily, and once she’s gone Ray shudders and blurts out, “My sister is now a monster!” Josh stands behind him in support, but //Abuela// stares at him and then turns to Anita and snaps, “What does this group of //gringos// do?” Anita says flatly, “Not my story.” Fuming, //Abuela// turns back to Josh and demands, “Why is my granddaughter involved in this?” Josh considers his reply, but Anita sighs and says, “I wasn’t sure how to tell you this, but now is as good a time as any.” She steps forward as Josh turns to Ray and says hurriedly, “We’re a mixed group.”+Turning back to Abuela, Josh says that the botanica has thrived for ninety years here in Springfield.

-Anita unlocks //Pyre-Flame Rage// and magenta flame crackles from her body! //Abuela// stares, but tells Josh, “Pin in that.” She turns back to Anita and demands an explanation. Anita says flatly, “The night of the fire? I died. I didn’t fully come back.” //Abuela// goes stock-still and hisses, “Did you make a bargain with something dead?” Startled, Anita nods, and //Abuela// hisses, “You… you’re one of the Joined!” Anita snaps, “Wait, you know another Sin-Eater?” //Abuela// screams, “Yes, your grandfather!” Anita rocks back in shock, and //Abuela// hisses, “Please tell me you didn’t make a bargain with The Witch!”  +Anita unlocks //Pyre-Flame Rage// and magenta flame crackles from her body!

-Anita nods dumbly, and //Abuela// starts cursing. Anita reaches inside herself to speak to The Witch; she demands, “We need to talk. Do you stalk bloodlines?” The Witch whispers, //“One of you was going to die. In truth, I expected to get your sister.”// Anita closes her eyes and starts cursing herself. Ray leans into Josh and whispers, “Is she a medium?” Josh replies, “Sort of. That is The Witch. It’s… complicated.” Ray eyes the swearing women and raises his hand. Both Anita and //Abuela// eye him, irritated, but he just points out the window – to Del, who is staring in absolute shock!((They both forgot Del was staring at them through the shop’s windows.))  She barges in, swearing, and demands answers.

-Josh says quickly, “A candle. The biggest, brightest candle.” //Abuela// retorts, “Candles don't pop wards!” Ray asks softly, “What are the Joined?” Are they vampires?” Anita shakes her head and Josh replies, “No. She doesn’t drink blood.” //Abuela// eyes Ray and demands, “Vampires are real?” Ray nods and says softly, “Yes, they are.

-Ray whispers, “What are they talking about?” Josh whispers back, “Not now, OK?” Ray replies, “Only if there’s more ice cream.” Josh chortles, but Anita demands, “Wait, have you ever been down below?” //Abuela// growls, “Once. That idiot decided to bring me to a brothel!” Anita goes pale, and //Abuela// swears. She points to Anita and snaps, “You’re Joined.” She then points to the two boys and snarls, “You two carry a candle.” Finally, she points to Del and snarls, “And you’re an idiot.” Josh replies smoothly, “I know I’m not smart,” clearly trying to take some heat off Del. //Abuela// snarls but says Josh and Ray will accompany her and Del home.
