Rendezvous (Minnie)
The room above the Eighth Street Bar was rented under the name "Robert Frank" and when Julian entered that night, he looked nothing like his usually clean-cut self. He'd forced himself into a pair of jeans and a t-shirt (horror of horrors) and mussed up his hair. He looked like a cross between a broke frat boy, a starving artist and a college student who'd been in a few years too long.

Minnie would receive a voice mail early in the day from an individual on Julian's payroll, directing her on where to meet him around eleven p.m. this evening. When she shows up, the door is unlocked and Julian is sitting in a wood chair at a desk across the room.

"You're here." is his greeting. He offers her a smile.

And Minnie hurriedly closes the door behind her and runs across the room. "Oh, goddess, it's so good to see you again! I hardly recognize you, dearest." She'll at least start to hurry around the desk in order to kiss him, unless instructed otherwise.

Julian kisses her in return as though he's starving. He'd wondered each day if she was all right, but had to clamp down on it so that no one would know.

He pulls her down into his lap and rests his head against her.

"You look wonderful. I hope those vile people aren't making you sick with their stupidity." Julian says.

When the kiss breaks, she just nuzzles, her hands pressed to his arms. "Oh, they're horrid, Dearest. And the things they say. About you, about Mr. H... I want them to pay for it so badly. But it's gotten worse, Julian. I'm worried."

Julian expected that they'd look into his background, that they'd try to bring up things about his adopted father, but if Minnie was worried, Julian thought it wise to take note.

"Tell me." he commands, playing with her hair.

She leans into his hand, closing her eyes at first. "Most of it's just the sort of nonsense you might expect from people like that. The head of Humans Against Mutants works for Zothelle, is running arms to criminals and terrorists, and is terrible in bed. But that's not what worries me. Zothelle's planning an Event. Wants to invite you to talk things over... and the schoolmaster, Xavier... and Andrew." She opens her eyes and looks up at him with concern. "And the woman he's hiring to run the event, Julian... she's an eye-burner. Nothing compared to you, but still a very strong mutagenic signature."

Julian listened to the information, all of which is very interesting to him. The event regarding him, Andrew and Xavier gave Julian pause.

"What more did he tell you about this event?" he asks.

"Nothing direct; the intent was all weaselwords, but we'd already established he wants to run you to ground, embarrass you in front of mutants and humans alike." She clutches. "And now Tina's gotten herself mixed up in this... I tried to get her to go away, Julian; I really did. And whomever this Miss Cortez is, she's not latent. With colors like that, she has to know what she is, and I doubt she's one of Andrew's people."

"How, exactly, did Tina get involved in this Minnie? I've got a bit of in interest in keeping her out of things like this due to what Shaw did to her in the past." Julian says.

"Speaking of Shaw, we'll need to be on our guard. He's no longer where I left him apparently. I may need to get my back-up plans ready when he shows up, because he will." Julian says.

He sighs.

"I need more information to work with, Minnie. I need you to keep up this act just a bit longer until we have something concrete we can use to bring down L.O.H.N and cripple Mr. Zothelle."

"I know," Minnie says forlornly. "She saw me out with them, worried about me, managed to get herself invited to an occasion. It turns out one of Zothelle's pet politicians knows her father. I asked her to be as careful as possible not to get wrapped in further."

Minnie's eyes widened. "Shaw? Any idea who's responsible?" More clutching now.

Then a breath. "Of course, Julian. I'll get everything you need."

Julian shakes his head. "No, no idea. I sent him as a gift to my mother and one of her people managed to lose him. She isn't terribly thrilled over him, but I planned for this eventuality, too." he says.

He pets her gently.

"Do you ever feel tired, Minnie?" Julian asks suddenly.

She's revelling in his touch, and then the subject change is too abrupt. "...Tired, Dearest?"

"Never mind. I'm just fatigued. Delirium is setting in." Julian says.

"...Don't do that, Julian. Not to me." She looks him over to see if he's hungry. "Tell me what you mean. I know you don't mean sleepy, and I don't get tired of doing anything for you, no matter how annoying."

He's not starving, but he could stand to eat. Moreover, there's a slump in his shoulders and a tiredness in his eyes that just isn't Julian.

"I'm different things to different people, Minnie. I have to play any of a million different roles a day to keep things in line. I knew that gaining power would be easier than keeping it, but the keeping is enough to drive one mad at times.

And as much as it drives me mad...there is no way I could give it up and still be me. Do you even remember that boy you met in the foyer on the Howard estate all those years ago?" Julian asks, his expression growing more far away, as though he were looking back into the past.

"I look in the mirror and I can't even see where he's gone. I can barely remember him, Minnie. I wasn't always this way, but after all the deaths, the women, the pursuit power...the only thing that matters now is the hunger for more of everything.

For more of /life/ itself." he says

"Someday, now or in a thousand years, my hunger won't be sated by anything I can easily reach. I wonder what I will do then?"

Tears well in Minnie's eyes as he talks. She presses her hands to his face. face. "Of course I remember him," she says softly. "Sweet and stubborn and searching. He's gotten older, gone through things. Changed. But I'd never forget. He was too important to me. And the woman I am now needs the man he's become too badly. Feed, Julian, please. You'll feel better."

Julian can't tear her clothing off fast enough. He literally does tear off every bit of fabric he can reach before tossing her to the bed and beginning to feed, his eyes glowing as her energy flows from within her, to him.

And Minnie offers no objections whatsoever, just wanting to give. And watch in a tired haze as his colors brighten.
