It didn't sound like Iggy. Waylon frowned. "I'm looking for Donna," he said. "It's Waylon." If Donna was there, she'd hear him. If she wasn't, he'd catch her later, possibly at court. Either way, there was no issue. Unless a hunter had somehow managed to take the Brujah leader out, in which case he was going to be walking into a trap he wasn't prepared to deal with.

Of course it was equally likely that he'd hit the wrong buzzer. "This is 502, right?"

Doug glanced at Donna and quirked an eyebrow, his hand poised over the button.

"And that would be Dee," Angel said. "She works for me. Don't worry, Dee, none of the people present are in danger of either getting bitten or getting the plague. They're going to be my guests for a while, so plan accordingly. Getting any better or should I start making funeral arrangements?"

Donna nodded. "Hes one of ours. Well not our clan he belongs to Helen. Hes one of her noveau art fags. But unlike the others in his clan he doesn't mind getting dirty. Scottie said he was quite the little firecracker. And that means something since Scottie pretty much has no use at all for any of the Toreador. Buzz him in and lets see what he wants."

"Fevers going down. Im at 99.5 and I ate a pudding cup earlier and took my antibiotics I'm sure I'll be fine. If you need the place to yourselves for a bit I could probably get dressed take out the camera and make myself busy for an hour or two." She replied as she sat up. The redheaded teen looked at the two men accordingly. They wore suits like Angel often did she could only assume from their pale skin tones that they were also like Angel. She would enquirer later in more private place.

Doug got an expression of surprise on his face, "Coming from Scottie that is high praise", he turned to the intercom and pushed the button, "You have the right place, she says to come on up", he said as he hit pushed the button to buz him up.

Morgan was pleased with the way things were going so far. He hadn't made a complete full out of himself at the meeting and had actually been able to contribute quite a bit to it, or at least he thought so. Angel's offer a place to crash for a couple of days was not expected but welcome. He really didn't relish trying to light proof a hotel room before sunup. "I will take the floor. All I need is a couple of blankets and a pillow and I will be fine Angel. It's nothing I'm not used to doing anyways." He turned an appraising eye on Dee. "It's nice to meet you Dee. I'm Morgan," he held his hand out to the young woman. "And please don't leave on my account. You really shouldn't be out and about anyways if you are running a fever young lady." Morgan wasn't sure how much she knew about the Kindred but he really didn't want her wandering around in the cold night air if she was sick. She would do the Ventrue no good if she wound up in the hospital or worse, the morgue.

It was a short ride up in the elevator and soon Waylon was knocking on the door of apartment 502. "I just wanted to offer my condolences," he said, speaking to Donna and not paying much attention to the man he didn't recognize. "Even if no one else outside your clan does, I'm going to miss Scottie. He took me under his wing and I realize what that meant, me being who I am and he being who he was. I wanted to pay tribute to him in some small way, so I painted this. I never really saw his eyes, so this is the best I could do."

He turned the small canvas around. It was barely eleven inches across and hardly eight inches high. In the centre was an almost flawless painting of the sunglasses that no one had ever seen Scottie take off. Beside and below the glasses, fading into nothing near the edges, skin could be seen and part of a nose. Above that there was a hint of a bandanna. "It just seemed like the right thing to do," he said. "No one else who sees it will understand but we will. We'll know and we will never forget how much he gave for us and for this city."

The teen smiled and returned the shake as she appraised Morgan. "Nice to meet you too. Umm sleeping on the floor might be a bit cold. If you wanted and you promise to be good I'd share the couch with you. It large and I'm small as long as you are ok with maybe spooning were good and then you and your other male friend don't have to share a bed you know homo erotic stuff unless youre into that in which case... uh sorry?"

"Well, it looks like you get the bed to yourself, Grigor," Angel said. "My office is lightproof, so I'll be crashing in there. Dee, you don't need to worry about any of us being cold. Morgan and Grigor are both members of my Clan. They're new to the city so maybe you can pick up some extra cash when you're feeling better by giving them the nickel tour of the city. Your perspective will be rather different from mine, I have a feeling."

Doug gaze at the painting in silence for a moment. "Hazel", he said softly and after a brief pause, looked down to meet Waylon's eyes and said, "Donna tells me Scottie spoke highly of you. That makes you good in my book. If you ever need anything, let me know and if I can I will help."

Dee's hazel grey eyes lit up at the word money. "Yeah sure no probs boss cash is good. Anything I can do to help. Just tell me when you need it done and I'm on it. But... yeah how much money we talking about?"

Waylon looked at the man appraisingly. He obviously knew Scottie well if he'd seen the man's eyes often enough to know the colour. He extended a hand. "Thanks," he said. "Likewise. I'm Waylon." He nodded at the painting. "Care to guess at the Clan?" he added with a chuckle.

Thursday May 6th 1999 - 2:10 am - Tisdale - Donna

Donna had remained silent and motionless on the couch as she studied the picture. She didn't hear the exchange between the two men. The painting as simple as it was hit home like a ton of bricks and was a somber reminded of the good people that had fallen only a few days previously.

She stood and wrapped her arms around Waylon. It was firm but not crushing. "Gracias Waylon. Te amo sin saber cï¿½mo, ni cuï¿½ndo, ni de dï¿½nde." She whispered into the side of his neck. "You have my thanks and I carry a respect for you now as if you were one of my own. I will look upon you and care for you as a brother your condolences are greatly appreciated during these dark times."

He hadn't expected Donna's response. "Thank you, Donna," he said thickly. "For what it's worth, if you need me, call me. I know I'll never be the man Scottie was but even if all I can be is a pale shadow of him, I'm your man. If I can help in any way, just let me know."

Doug gazed somberly at Donna for a moment as Waylon answered and slowly nodded his head, "Bueno, dijo la hermana, bien dicho", he thought for a moment about this induction, so like and yet so different from countless others he had been party to and nodded again. When they broke their hug Butcher stepped up to Waylon, and greeted him as a brother, just as he would have any other new member of his MC or Clan, grasping the hand that was proffered earlier and using it to pull Waylon to him, clasping him in a brief but fierce hug with the other arm, ending the hug with three slaps of his free hand. "Welcome to the family, brother." He stepped back after releasing Waylon and gazing at the painting said, "For one moment, I think I have an idea of what the Toreador mean when they speak of the beauty they struggle to convey", inside he fought to control the tears that were threatening to leak out.

If he had been mortal, Waylon would have blushed. He returned the embrace as best he could, trying not to damage the painting in the process. "Esto es mï¿½s que merezco," he said. "Tratarï¿½ de no traer la vergï¿½enza al Brujah."

Morgan had to grin at Dee's enthusiasm. "That would all depend on how thorough of a tour I can get but I can guarantee at least $50.00. Anything over that will depend on how well you do the job of tour guide. And your offer of sharing the couch is much appreciated." He really didn't want to sleep on the floor but sharing a bed was not really something he wanted to do again. He had had more than enough of that growing up. So he would take Dee up on the coach cuddle and make sure that the young woman was taken care of when Angel wasn't around. "Angel could I talk to you a minute alone please?" He wanted to propose something to him out of range of Dee's hearing. It was nothing really, just Morgan wanted to see if he could reach an arrangement that would give Dee a more suitable and permanent place to live. Sleeping on the coach here where Angel could keep on I on her while she recovered was fine but she really needed a place of her own.

"Fifty bucks its done deal that will get you the down town and lower mountain tour. Its another 50 if you want a tour of the mountain sir." She replied as she slid the covers off. "I feel skeetzy I'm gonna grab a shower ok?"

"You do that, Dee" Angel said. "Grigor, make yourself at home while I take care of Morgan for a moment." He led the construction magnate into his laundry room. It was close and conveniently isolated. "What can I do for you, sir?"

Doug grinned at the smaller man, "I have no fear of your shaming anyone. It's good to meet you, Waylon, I'm Doug."

Morgan was not in the least taken aback by what some would see as Dee's greed. To him it was the sign of a crafty negotiator. In another 10 years or so she might even make a half way decent Ventrue. He followed Angel into the laundry room. "I would like to find Dee an appropriate place to live. Don't get me wrong. I think it is admirable of you to let her sleep on your couch, especially while she is sick. But she really does need her own place to live. I was thinking of a small one room apartment that would hopefully be close by. That way she would still be close enough for you to keep on eye on but have the freedom to come and go at all hours without risking disturbing anyone. I would like your opinion on this since she is your employee at that moment."

"Are you going to buy me flowers first?" Angel asked mildly. "I appreciate the suggestion but your new to the city, Morgan. You don't know how anything works her yet and I'd prefer if you allow me to tend to my business as I see fit. Dee is a special case. I'm grooming her for bigger and better things. You seem to be a straight shooter, so I'm going to be straight with you. Dee is a no fly zone."

"Thanks, I think it's going to be a good place to settle into. The Hammer", he gave a deep chuckle, "I don't think I could have found someplace with a more appropriate name if I tried. So whats your appraisal of the current situation?"
