some of them want to use you

WHO: ABEL GIDEON and DANGER
WHERE: Around.
WHEN: Valentine's Day.
WHAT: Gideon and Danger go on a date.
WARNINGS: There will be blood.


[ It had been impulse, inviting Danger out. Gideon had no impure intentions when he made the gesture, though reflecting upon it as he worked out their plans he was a little surprised with himself.

He has a small range of nice clothing to choose from, an investment he made for the purposes of societal integration. He knows how to keep a low profile even if he isn't specifically out to hide. As he dresses to meet Danger, even bothering to tie a tie, he thinks of Alana Bloom and the complicated array of feelings he holds for her, even knowing they would never be pursued. His relationship days had been put to rest when his wife had, he should think.

(But what might Chilton have to say about it?)

Danger is someone Gideon can say he feels a kinship towards; of what sort he still isn't sure of. He isn't sure he needs to know, either. What relation they do have may be enough for now, and he aims to protect that. They're beginning with something simple: a walk along the beach first was Gideon's plan, enough time to observe the atmosphere surrounding them and discuss before they proceeded to something like a light lunch. Or maybe something more engaging. As Gideon had said to her, he was flexible as well as impulsive.

He brings a rose along for propriety's sake, but also a knife that he slips comfortably into his coat pocket. Why, he isn't yet sure. It is his first Valentine's Day out in the world since he'd murdered his wife... he can't help but feel imbued with purpose, ambiguous though it might be. It never hurts to be prepared.
