To continue:
Michelle goes to the hospital with Davi. After he is stabilized, she heads off to work. So, no sleep. While there, she gets an emergency phone call from TBone, the gang leader. She heads over to where he is and finds out that one of the gang members has been attacked by Ghouls. This is a no-no. The supernatural are not supposed to target humans. After a few minutes, she gets it together and decides what to do. She gives them a few instructions and gets a ride to her place to pick up her mini gun, which she lends to them.
Yes, she has a mini gun in her living room. It's for pest control.
So, let's recap. Jack (another player's character), Davi, and Michelle just killed Jack's mentor after he stole the demon possessed coin Martin had sent to Davi as a joke. Sharee had just been rescued from the mp's after escaping from the fey lord who wants her to have his child. Martin won't leave town and has just about gutted Davi, and Davi's gang is now being hunted by ghouls sent by person unknown. So Michelle does what any other rational person would do; she decides to get drunk. Too much stuff happening and too little sleep.
Which leads us back to Temptations. Blue opens a bottle of eighty year old whiskey. Michelle takes her bottle, guilt, fear, and sorrow to an alcove and drinks. When Blue checks on her, she decides "what the hell" and goes to his place and has sex...really really GREAT sex. After, she heads back to her bottle and alcove and they have sex again...really really GREAT sex. And one more time after that because it's just that GREAT. Of course, Michelle is rather toasted about now, so Blue calls up Sharee to come and take her home. It really didn't help much that Michelle and Blue were making out like teenagers in front of Temptations when Jack and Sharee drove up. It REALLY didn't help matters that Michelle kept talking about sex. Between bouts of sex talk, Michelle did mention to Sharee about the ghoul attack on the gang, which pissed Sharee off to no end. The session ended with Michelle getting a ride to her house from the gang house (Sharee had left her there, out of disgust probably) and Jack and Sharee went off to a battle at her place. I won't go into that, since Lana covered it in her blog.
Michelle did tell Sharee one thing during the ride, She told her that sometimes, even when things are going to hell, sometimes you just need to let go and forget it for awhile. To take a few hours or a day off. The point she was trying to make in her drunken state was that you can't live with that level of fear and tension without some kind of break from it. She wasn't able to get the whole point across because she was fucking wasted but it was made. Michelle knows the fear and anger that Sharee is feeling; she has been feeling it for seven years. She sees Sharee as a younger version of herself and she feels compassion towards Sharee for what she is going through. Michelle knows that Sharee wants to take care of everybody. Michelle wants Sharee to learn that sometimes you have to take care of yourself (even if it means getting drunk one night) before you can take care of anyone else. I foresee a girl bonding moment in game. Definitely NOT over cocktails though. Maybe cheeseburgers. Temptations has really really GREAT cheeseburgers.
