AN: Im not sure if the phasing through stuff works on people too, but for the purposes of this story lets pretend it does. ;) Its a bit short, but I like it. Incidently if you have any suggestions feel free to post them in your reviews. I dont have a definate plan as they tend to spoil my stories, so I can incorporate whatever ya'll want to see. :)

Seras eyed the bottle, trying to decide if this guy was insane. He was obviously human so blowing him to bits was unfortunately out of the question. However that didnt mean she couldnt use her voice to its full effect.

"GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" she screamed, setting aside the Harkonnen so she wouldnt be tempted.

Jack ducked a little expected her to fire at him. He was gratified to see she'd set it aside instead. Taking it as a sign that maybe his charm was working... and totally oblivious to the yelling she'd just done... he tucked away the rum and moved closer to put an arm around her.

Seras now had a choice. Either faint dead away from the stench, or knock him into next Wednesday. She chose the latter.

Jack wasnt quite sure how he ended up with his back against the door and his bottom on the ground, not to mention stinging, but he had a strong suspicion that the girl had something to do with it. How exactly such a small woman had managed this he wasnt sure, but that was not unusual either. He shook his head a little and stood, unsteady as always. The noises from outside had ceased, and he was beginning to think that a strategic withdrawl might be in order.

The way this man was weaving Seras almost thought she'd hit him too hard. When he continued that way she decided he was just drunk, as evidenced by the rum she'd just been offered. She pointed to the door, and did her best to muster up a calm voice.

"Now... will you please... get out!" she ordered.

"I'm beginning to get the impression I'm not wanted." Jack replied with a signature grin as he took a few steps towards her.

Before Seras could reply, most likely with a harder shove, Alucard phased through the door, as well as Jack since the pirate was in the way. Jack pulled out his pistol, taking shakey aim at the ghost that had apparently just walked through him. When said ghost turned he recognized the red coated fella that had brought him to this place to start with. He tucked the pistol away again, deciding that if the man... or whatever... could disappear he could certainly walk through stuff.

"Oh, it's you." Jack said, trying to sound bland.

"Why Seras," Alucard teased, totally ignoring Jack for the moment. "Having breakfast in bed? Or did you have something else in mind for him?"

Seras immediatly turned a bright red upoun realising she was still in her pajamas with a man in her room. Of course this only incited Alucard to continue his teasing. Jack however saw no reason to get involved in whatever these two had going on. He slipped quietly out the door, studiously not listening to the shouts and random noise coming from behind it.
