Bo and Kenzi's Flop, Toronto
The Next Afternoon
Kenzi staggered limpingly down the stairs to a golf clapping round of applause, "I never knew" Bo said with a naughty grin.
Kenzi walked to the coffee pot and drank straight from it until it was empty, wiping her hand across her mouth, "Knew what," she finally asked.
"You my darling Kenz are an utter whore for the right man, and BOY what that man the right man for you!" Bo said with a larger smile. "Damn, I didn't think you'd get it ALL the way down your neck, hell I couldn't have done that to HIM. I am insanely jealous right now. He seems singularly disinclined to have sex with me, he says when I get control but I just think he's not interested."
"No offence Bo Bo, but I kinda like that about him. I luv ya girl, but it's nice to be first choice for once."
Bo nodded, "I get that, I've always admired your restraint in not blaming me."
"Ain't your fault Bo, you can't help being the awesome being you are." Kenzi said, the worked at making more of the blessed bean.
"You were limping" Bo noted another naughty smile on her face.
"As you clearly saw, he's.. BUILT" Kenzi said with a silly grin, and a glazed expression in her eyes, "Did he you know HAPPEN to mention how long he's staying in town."
"Urh...no but Marina did, a week, maybe two, they actually have you know actual homes to go to. Apparently he was just investigating the conclave here."
"So you actually talked, I'm shocked."
"Ohh that's a woman that knows her gender" Bo said with a silly grin of her own, "And looking down into THOSE eyes."
"Harry said something similar to me" Kenzi said, "He does like that more than even most men."
Bo chuckled, "I heard he had a DRY spell recently, like… a long one."
"I heard too, I just didn't believe it, you saw him right?"
"Insane right?" Bo said, "Now you get why I'm jealous, you hit the jackpot there girl."
"And all the roll overs and lotteries in the country." She remarked, "I FEEL GOOD" she said with feeling.
"Did you learn anything" she said setting the coffee to make.
"Oh yeah, until you went down I leaned loads, he's a pretty good teacher, I'm not surprised that you didn't really hear that, since he was playing you like a fucking harp."
"That was GOOD" Kenzi said. "Man's got SKILLS baby."
"So I saw, SO jealous"
"Wolfie not doing his part Bo Bo."
"Oh he's good, but...that was extra especially out there good, even I knew that and he never laid a hand on me. Which was...odd"
Kenzi chuckled, then upended the coffee pot again.
"Damn Kenz, why exactly are you mainlining our merge coffee allowance."
"I may have...teased him a step too far" Kenzi said, "After that, well, it was intense I need to replace my fluids and wake the fuck up from the daze he put me into. So Coffee for the win baby."
"Lucky bitch."
Kenzi smiled, then suddenly dropped the glass jug, her hands slamming to the side of her head, eyes wide, shocked and almost AWED
Bo rushed over cleaning the broken pot, "You alright there Kenz, he break something he shouldn't' have."
"No...very not broken, fixed...fucking FINALLY fixed. Oh god, oh god…" Kenzi said wide eyed, amazing and smiling now.
"What, what?" Bo urged.
"It's like this Bo," Kenzi said hunkering down and helping her, "There's stuff you don't know, mostly because there was no point telling you. But my family you know they are Romany."
"Travellers?"
"No!" Kenzi said, "No, we're true Romany Bo, and while I swear I had no idea about the Fae. Well the super natural in other ways you could call me somewhat versed in. When I was young I did clan rituals, and they found I had a talent for crying, reading fortunes, sooth saying as they say." she smiled, "Then I got to about thirteen, gone...not even able to help with rituals any more and they sighed, said oh well and moved on, despite the fact I was being trained at the time by one of our best. They said I had real potential, but you know we're a pragmatic people, they just moved onto the next candidate. Me...not so much, it was a part of me Bo, something felt missing and has done ever since but I never could get so much as a candle to light, and my future sight is so bad I'd walk into a lamp post if I wasn't actually looking right at it."
"That's because your eyes are bad and you refuse to wear glasses." Bo remarked dryly.
Kenzi froze, "How'd you know that?"
"It's the little things, you ARE my BFF Kenz, I care, so I notice stuff. I just didn't bring this up since I knew it was a touchy subject."
"Yeah, they might look nice, functional...not so much" Kenzi said with embarrassment.
"One, they are WAY more than look Nice, and Two...contacts?"
"Ahh people always say I'm wearing them now." Kenzi said.
"Your eyes are rather unique Kenz"
"Yeah, I'd like them more if you know the world wasn't so damned fuzzy." Kenzi chuckled, "But when I was young...didn't matter, I was constantly scrying, my world was VERY clear, nothing surprised me and I saw anything coming, I could even READ if I concentrated, then .. pfft."
"I suppose this is leading to something good."
"Firstly, sorry for not telling ya."
"Ahh, you didn't' think it was a thing, otherwise it was just a painful memory you didn't want to bring up, I get that Kenz"
Kenzi smiled, "Thanks Bo-Bo...wait a sec...Oh Yeah" she said in a VERY sexual tone.
"What?"
"God you're gorgeous, I knew hot, but you're way more than that" Kenzi said her head tilted, her eyes somehow just MORE than they already managed to be.
"You're using that, now?"
Kenzi blinded and blessed her with her smile, "Oh GOD I've missed this, just this let alone the rest. Candle, candle I need a candle, My Kingdom for a Candle!" she exclaimed a little giddy either from the massive amounts of coffee or the resurgence of her abilities.
Bo quickly got her one.
"It's been YEARS since I bothered to try, let's seer….whoa that was so damned EASY"
All she'd done was tilt her head and the wick had lit Bo had to notice.
"Well, that's going to be useful."
Kenzi frowned, "No...I don't think so Bo." she said, "Things like this...a resurgence of an old gift, the ability to scry live, my magic back. Things like that don't happen for no reason Bo. There's destiny, there is fate, and mine has just been called into action."
Bo smiled sadly, "And given what happened and who we just met…"
Kenzi nodded, "It's gotta be, though I will be checking, it's been so long but it's almost ingrained, I should be able to do it."
"But why, he's nothing special, just a male me." Bo said, drooping a little.
"Oh no Bo," Kenzi said VERY seriously, "He's far more than he appears, and he AGAIN denied he was even Fae to me this morning when he left."
"Oh...he's Fae" Bo assured her.
"He swears he ain't"
"I just know he is" Bo said firmly.
Rothschild Entertainment, Toronto
Same Time
"Well, well" Evony Rothschild said, "Haven't met one of you in a while."
"Ms Rothschild, this is a curtosy thing, I was told it was polite to check in, but I need to be honest with you here. I'm not actually a Fae. But I thought since by all accounts you're the one with the actual power in this town I'd check in anyway."
"You are" Evony pressed, then slipped in her chair crossing her legs, "You may also call me Evony" she said with a highly inviting smile.
"I'm sorry, I don't know why the Fae think so, but I was born of two humans, I think. Pretty sure. Well there is an outside possibility that my mum might be more than merely human. She was by all accounts especially attractive, especially powerful and super intelligent. So...maybe she was and you sense that on me?"
"No, the child of a human and Fae is ALWAYS human I'm afraid and this is odd arguing with you like this on this subject, but I'm a pretty old Fae, our senses only get better and one thing we can always do is sense each other Mr…"
"Just Harry is fine, I change the last one so often I'd probably give you the wrong one anyway" he chuckled.
"Harry then, so I insist you call me Evony."
"I like that name, it's got gravitas, and a sex appeal of its very own." he smiled into her eyes.
"Oh, and I think I even know what type, given I'm not so slowly ruining my five thousand dollar panties." she said with a smile that was nearly PURE sex.
Harry sighed, "Well at this point, with so many Fae saying I am, I have to then assume I'm the one that's wrong, but I truly believe that my parents were human, I looked a lot like my dad when I was younger and these" he said tapping his eyes, "Are from my mum."
"Wow, you really won the gene lotto there." she said another sensual smile on her face.
"Thank you very much Evony, I'm flattered, but still with the obvious genes and the fact they were human, or at least I'm certain my father was at least. We actually had fae back where I'm from, so it's not outside of possibility that my mother who could pass for human was Fae. But you say that's not possible."
"Not in our entire history to date, if that helps."
Harry pursed his lips. "Well there's a thing" he said his tone calm. "But there some factors here, mostly Fae think I'm an incubus"
"That's what I think too, all signs add up in that direction" Evony said smoothing one leg up the other.
Harry smiled slightly, "Well from what I've read they need to feed, often."
"Twice a week and are occasionally driven to far more, we had one come through here a few years ago we had to get the lights pet bitch to help. He was feeding too often. I think she's helping Bo now"
"Ahh I've sorted that, a couple more 'lessons' and she'll actually be feeding from the right source for starters." Harry noted.
"And yet you say you're not a Fae, or an Incubus and even then helped a Succubus? And that is logical to you" Evony said with a small smile, caressing her knee and slowly getting far more daringly high on her leg.
"I've not actually fed at all, and recently had a VERY long dry spell."
"Now that's just criminal" Evony said, "Are you...okay now?" she said in an almost offer, leaning forward and tracing her lip with a finger.
"Evony...snap out of it luv."
She smiled, "I'm not as bad as you think, I'm cognizant that you're effecting me...I just don't want to fight it"
"In truth I am starting to realize I might be something but while some signs are clear, others are positively contrary." Harry said ignoring the way her actions were really drawing his attention to her mouth, and the shape it was currently forming. Or mostly, "God you're sexy" he remarked then swallowed, "I didn't' mean to say that."
"Oh...just live that feeling Harry" Evony said, getting up striding to his side of the desk, then leaned back, a foot between his legs on his chair, then shifted.
"Oh god" he said spotting the high grade stockings she was wearing.
"You like what you see, you know I think I should PERSONALLY introduce you to the benefits of being Dark Fae" she said crooking a finger at him.
Harry wasn't insane, or tied down, he didn't refuse the offer.
Savoy Hotel, Toronto
Much Later
Marina corked and eyebrow as Harry walked moving like a snake into the room and she spotted him and specifically his neck and face. "Tell me you didn't walk into public like that, and that is NOT Kenzi's shade you … man, you!"
Harry blinked, then smiled at her and she felt a REAL REQUIREMENT for him in that moment, but it was gone as fast as it required. She shook herself as he said, "I think my dry season is finally over."
"Obviously" Marina said with amusement, "Did you wink at someone, that'd probably be enough."
Harry smirked, "No...that was really her leading the charge there, and she was gorgeous too, quite a confidence boost when a woman like that takes an interest in you." Harry said,"Kenzi too of course, perhaps even more potent, they were both stellar knockouts, but I have to admit those eyes get me every time." Harry smiled. "Did you have Fun with Bo."
"Urh...Meh, she's not so bad with a woman, but...I've had better"
"That's damned by faint praise if ever I heard it. So...Sucky as a Succubus?"
Marina laughed, "Stop that" she said getting serious.
"I'm sorry, I'm in a good mood, can't think why!" he said with very over the top faux horror. "You know I may move, I think the women in Canada like me more than America."
"Oh you're stupid" Marina snapped at him.
He balked back at the real anger in her eyes, "I'm … sorry?"
"You could have any woman you want, even your female friends like THAT" she said snapping her finger, "They all want you, even if its just in their personal moments. You're a damned GOD of a man, but you have rules and unlike you know the entire human race you do more than pay lip service to them! Or you could've had the one you REALLY want a long time ago.?"
"You?"
Marina blinked, "I urh...yes actually but I wasn't referring to me, but...kinda tickled pink right now, ignore that. I mean JULIA, and don't...just DON'T" she said, holding up a hand.
"I don't deny I want her, or that I find her unusually attractive, never have even to her." Harry said, "But the one I REALLY want...she's JUST my friend and I LOVE our relationship and wouldn't risk losing it even to have her just the once and it would be just the once. My friendship with that amazing girl is worth far more than sating any tawdry sex drive I may or may not have racially or otherwise."
marina blinked, "I would be tempted to tell her that, but your trust is important to me, she'd love you even MORE for saying it, so I suggest you find the opportunity to repeat that to her verbatim. Trust me, she's going to like hearing it."
"Well, I do...trust you"
Marina looked away to cover a slight tear in her eye, no one had trusted her, and for good reason, but with him and Julia, it MATTERED.
"Anyway, that's two women in as many days did it occur to you that Kenzi might not be okay with that?"
"Urh...I've made no commitments to Kenzi, or Evony." Harry said carefully.
"Ahh, you're just a man after all" Marina said rolling her beautiful eyes in mock disgust, even while her lip twitched.
"Are you telling me you're dating Bo because you had sex?"
"Oh hell no, I don't get tied down." She said with a grin, "And I doubt she'd want to be, it wouldn't make any sense for her to be would it."
"Same could be said for me if they are all right, right?"
"Oh no, different standards, because you pissed me off, so you have to play by my rules." Marina said with a sparkle.
"YETH MISTHRESS" he lisped faking a hump back walk towards her.
"Fool" she said fondly.
Dal Riata, Toronto
The Next Evening
"Yeah, yeah, Tony WHY are you asking me." Harry said making Yak, Yak motions with his hands to the table, which consisted of Marina, himself and Kenzi with Bo. "Man you're a genius of the highest calibre, I'm a dumb arse next to you, why do you need or want my advice, if you want brains go talk to Julia, she'll at least match your brains, of course she's a woman so she far more dangerous with it." he laughed, "I know, right" he said as Marina glared very blue daggers at him. "You think that's bad I'm sat at a table full of women, I think Pepper's probably a pussy cat compared to well...all the women at this table, seriously mate you lucked out there she's a darling, and super hot too so what does she see in you again. Oh...right, you're super hot too, how could I forget. Now piss off, you're making me ignore my guests. No...seriously do it, or talk to Julia or something." he disconnected the call, "When did I become Tony's advisor exactly?" he asked Marina in a bemused manner.
"Tony?" Bo asked.
"Stark" Harry replied glibly.
"Iron Man" Kenzi said wide eyed, which like Marina was a good look on her.
"Oh we...bonded." Harry chuckled.
Marina thumbed towards him, "He's an Avenger" she said with a small grin.
"Hey, I'm not supposed to spread that around ya know!" Harry lightly admonisher her.
"Ahh whatever" Marina said "You have no hold over me!"
"I could always stick you to the ceiling of our suite one night, see how back chatty you feel in the morning." Harry replied with a dangerous grin.
"Try it" Marina shot back her eyes sparkling.
"I can't tell are you two flirting, only I thought Marina was a girl, girl." Kenzi asked with a smile.
Marina looked at her, "Contrary to popular belief, I'm not a lesbian, I'm Bi...he just doesn't do it for me."
Kenzi reached across the table and held her wrist.
"What are you doing, get off" Marina growled.
"No...that's weird, I am sure I felt a pulse" Kenzi said looking honestly confused.
Harry chuckled, "I am not irresistible to women or something!" he said laughing mostly at himself and the very idea.
Kenzi cocked a perfectly quaffed eyebrow, "Urh…" she waved around the pub.
Harry looked around, actually noticing quite a few women were looking at him, only to suddenly turn away when he looked at them looking. "Okay" he said slowly. "Maybe the Fae just like me" he shrugged.
"With how old you are, how have you missed this?" Marina asked. "Seriously I like that you're not a totally arrogant pig like most men with half your looks, but there is such a thing as self flagellation."
He looked at her queerly. "And I say..what?"
"I think she's saying, you're gorgeous Harry" Bo said with a slight smile.
Harry smiled at her, "Why thank you Bo" he said taking the compliment.
"And that's his reaction to such comments, but...it doesn't seem to sink in." Marina said throwing up her hands.
"Okay, okay I know I'm considered good looking, jeeze I'd have to be an idiot to miss that." Harry said, "And what are you get all spices about, I thought you liked that I wasn't arrogant."
"There is a middle ground." Marina replied.
"And I'm WAY over it, like I said I know I'm good looking."
"No...that's not true" Kenzi said.
Harry looked at her a little hurt. "Oh?"
"No, it's not remotely enough." she said as Marina glared her death at her, "You're really...gorgeous, like the best looking man I ever did see, here in real life and even on the movies."
Harry smiled, "Why thank you, likewise I assure you."
Kenzi smiled, "Bet you do that too" she said.
He looked at her curiously, "Turn it back on the one giving you a compliment."
"Why wouldn't' I, I never lie, they just made me feel good about myself, cannot I not return the favour?"
Kenzi shook her head, "Yeah...I sometimes wonder if you're for real."
He looked puzzled, "I'm nothing special or anything," he protested.
"I didn't either for the longest time, I didn't trust this was the REAL you." Marina informed him.
"I've only ever been real with you Marina, I sensed how well it would go down doing anything BUT that." Harry said.
"I know, I said for the longest time, I didn't mean to imply I still felt that way." she said smiling at him softly. She looked at Kenzi, "He is for real, and honestly doesn't seem to realise how special that is. Why he's not swimming in women, I'm not sure I get it."
"That's easy." Kenzi said, "He doesn't USE it. This is all just natural oozing charm and attractiveness, now imagine if he bothered to TRY...just take a moment there, fill your minds eye, and imagine what that would do."
Marina blushed. Then cleared her throat, "You like to paint a picture."
Harry looked between them to see all three nodding agreement, in Kenzi's case with herself. "Well it's good you like it" Harry said shrugging. "After my lifetime I'm only ever myself, sometimes I'm different facets of that person, and some of them aren't remotely nice or charming some are damn right scary even to me. Those aren't used very often but they do have a time and place and I'm not afraid of pulling them out of moth balls either. I think you guys have a slightly erroneous impression of my 'niceness'"
"You ARE nice, but you are NOT a nice person." Kenzi said a half smile on her face. "You have a deep darkness inside that gives you the strength to do some nasty shit, but there's a balance, a bright light that lets you live to your age and STILL love being alive."
Harry did a double take, "Say what now?"
"Yeah...so, something happened after our night together, and I really do hope you like my face and eyes as much as you say. Because you need to get used to seeing them."
"Did she just invite herself to your home, or am I going crazy?" Marina said looking at Kenzi like she was about to go off.
"I won't bore you with the details, but when I was young I was a pretty damned fine seer and magical for my clan. It went away, and now its back. I scryed like I've never scryed before and I found out WHY its back. I knew you were an avenger, because I was shown that to be able to help you and them. I'm a seer baby, and I've always been VERY, VERY good. Now...now its well even I think its insane."
"Honestly you have sex with a girl and the next thing they want to commit and stuff and be your live in Seer" Harry said with a tiny smile.
Marina laughed, mostly shocked at his reply to Kenzi's speech.
"I know, not really fazes you any more, you live to be surprised right, well...surprise. I'm your pet seer, I dunno about live in, to start with, maybe, but when I urh….collate some resources I'll move to my own place."
Marina rolled her eyes, "You okay with this."
"Not so much, but she gave me the reasons and some details, I'm not good, I'm way away from GOOD, she's the person I love most in the world and I'm losing her."
"I have a cell, and access to someone that can teleport a continent once he knows where he's going." Kenzi said.
"Hey, I'm not a damned Uber" Harry complained.
Kenzi shut him up with a highly effective and positively lethal glare. He actually sat back a bit. She smiled hauntingly, "It'll be Okay Bo" she said.
"I know, but I'm going to miss you like crazy!"
"Me too, me too"
"There is one thing" Kenzi said forcing a smile onto her face.
"Oh?"
"Yeah we need to talk about The Sex."
"I thought we had a goo time." Harry remarked easily.
"Oh, see that's the thing. I had WAY more than a good time, so I want more of that, that exact thing, I don't want or need a boyfriend, but THAT...oh god I want that" Kenzi said with passion.
Bo burst into laughter at the audacity of her friend while Marina was looking at Harry speculatively.
"I have no commitments right now, if you're looking for something casual there is no way in HELL I would say no to you."
Kenzi smiled, "And there it is again, charming limey… but… GOOD, very GOOD, like...now maybe?"
"CHECK"
They ran off and Bo smirked, then looked at Marina speculatively. Marina smirked, "Oh why not!"
Harry's Apartment, New York, New York
The Next Evening
Julia arrived as was her usual foible with a muted flash, she only left with no sign, but she liked to make a splash on arrival. "Oh Harry!" she called out, having had missed him the last few days he'd been away. Oh hell she missed him if she didn't see him most days.
A real beauty with raven hair, green trim and the most amazing eyes padded into the room wearing one of Harry's blacker than night shirts. "Oh" Julia said.
"You must be Julia" the slightly goth knock out said with a big grin, "You're actually more attractive in person"
"Urh...thanks" Julia said, "You and Harry…"
"Oh god yes" Kenzi said, "That's...not going to be a problem is it? Cuz I'd like to be your friend, you have amazing references."
"Oh no, me and Harry aren't like that, actually this is great. He's been having a really WEIRD dry stretch recently. Which I truly do not get."
Kenzi smirked, "I definitely brought the rain," she smiled a dirty smile. That actually made Julia blush, "In a manner of speaking" she finished.
"I think he's needed a girl for a while now" Julia said honestly.
"Oh...that's not me, I'm … far more casual, when and if sorta thing, like when we want and if we're available to each other. I'm not precluding finding a relationship up here and I think as you say Harry could do with a little romance in his life…. That ain't' for me sadly, I think I could easily fall for him, but I don't think its in the stars."
Julia nodded, "I get that." Julia said.
"Marina seems to think you and he should get something going, that you'd be good" Kenzi said.
"Oh..."Julia paused, then looked around.
"He's out" Kenzi supplied.
"Then between us girls if we worked it would be the best thing ever" Julia said, "But what we already have is already damned near the best relationship I've ever had full stop of any type. I'm not looking to risk that"
"He said something eerily similar" Kenzi said with a smile.
"Yeah...I had a feeling he would, there is no denying that we're attracted to each other and it's not like I don't tease and flirt, I know I shouldn't but...you have seen the man right?" Julia grinned.
"Oh so on the same wave length there Julia"
"Jules...you can call me Jules and as for friends I'll be the best you have or the worst enemy all depending on how you treat Harry."
"Like the treasure he is?" Kenzi said with a smile.
"Then best of friends." Julia smiled, meaning Kenzi relaxed from defcon -100.
"So...you're his prize student"
"You know about that stuff?"
"Oh yeah, born into it you could say, we do it differently but yeah I can do magic."
"Ohh...tell me more?" Julia said taking her by the hand and leading her to the breakfast bar then getting her a coffee.
Kenzi smiled, and started to talk.
