At 9 or 10 AM (he says in person), Dani is with Dare, this being the one morning she doesn't have to get up early and leave. So, when the phone rings, she might not answer, but once Dare is distracted with coffee or a cigarette, she will call back. "Asha, is everything ok?"
"Everything is swell," Asha lies. "I have some things I need to attend to today, and I was wondering if you would mind taking the Father and Curtis for a spa day. It has been a rough couple of days, and I think Curtis could use a nice time. . ."
Asha turns and looks out over the church grounds, partially lost in her own thoughts and fears.
"I still have to ask the Father. I want him to go in case there are more baddies lurking, you know. Hopefully that vampire is the last to care about him, but I don't want to take any chances just yet."
"A spa day!? Oooh, that does sound nice. But not until Dare goes to work, is that ok? Also, I could totally get a different bodyguard if Father George isn't up for it. It's not quite his thing? Oh, but we'll have so much fun. I didn't know Curtis liked spa days. Did you ask him already? I've invited him out before; he usually doesn't want to go anywhere without you." Dani is excited. The idea of spending money on luxury appeals all over the place. And time alone with Curtis is cool too "Dare goes in at noon, maybe a little later. Does like, 1:00 work for you as a pick-up time?"
"That sounds fine. I will text you when I make sure on the others details... Thanks Dani, you are a good friend."
Asha wipes a tear and hangs up before she chokes. Finding Curtis she smiles and takes his hand.
"Hey, I was hoping you could go take a spa day with the Father and Dani. She has been excited to do it for a while and after all her help I think it would be sweet if you went. Sound good?"
Dani hangs up and tells Dare "when you go to work, I'm gonna take Curtis and maybe Father George?" pause, question mark. "out for a spa day. Asha said I was a good friend." grin. "She must have forgiven me now that the whole Von Dee thing is over. I hope it is over." /shudder
"I was wondering if you would keep an eye on Dani and Curtis for a spa day she is planning. I think it would be nice for her to be able to have some normal fun instead of only seeing us when its trouble, you know. Anyway, I wanted to know if you want look after them?"
derrik turns in to a giant sea monster and carries dani into the cold depths of lake michigan, never to be bothered by troublesome blondes ever again. then he comes back to reality, feigns disinterest and is like, sure fine. i'm tired anyway. should probably catch some zs before work.
Curtis rips the earth asunder and brings to the surface piles of precious things and a convienent hotspring with all the amenities so the shadowy, protective Countess of Guns can relax in peace with him. comes back to reality, "you sure you don't want to come with? i think dani probably likes you better than me? and um... you deserve soem fun?" "i guess i could go, but.. i could bring you something back! ok?"
