Killin' Time in New Orleans (Gretchen)
The Big Easy was treating Brad & Gretchen better than he'd hoped for. A few picked pockets here, a few poker games won there and soon, the Prince of Thieves and his Princess were staying in one of the nicest rooms in one of the better hotels of the French Quarter. He also secured new dresses and other clothing for the Blue Beauty, allowing her to chose her personal garments for herself, of course. While Braddock was definitely a gentleman, his thoughts of Gretchen lately were less and less platonic.

When favored him with her kiss, he felt himself catch fire inside.

Coming home from another busy day at "work", Brad knocks on Gretchen's door, holding a small box in his hand.

"I have something for you, Princess." he says, offering it to her when she opens the door.

"I'm honestly not sure. The sound lovely, but I'm not sure if dropping in on people without any invite is something I want to keep up. But yeah, they've got, among others, a terrakinetic, a literal Greek God, someone in a fantastic devil costume of which I completely approve, and a winged girl."

"A winged girl? Well, that will make for the second winged woman I know of. Did I tell you that my sister Lyta has wings? She looks like an angel. We had an uncomfortable conversation about that before I knew she was my sister." Brad says, enjoying the catfish.

"Why don't we at least take a look at this place, then decide what to with the rest of the night?" he suggests.

After a moment, his eyebrows shoot up. "I meant to tell you! There's a poker tournament next Wednesday, and I think I can make the buy-in, but I need a beautiful woman at my side to keep my fellow players off-balance.

I was going to ask this princess I know if she might like to wear her new earrings that night and join me?" he smiles.

"Well, their place is right along the streetcar line. And oh, that's got to be awkard!"

Gretchen smiled. "I believe she may be willing."

"Yeah, it's not one of those things I'm going to talk about around other company." Brad says, reaching across the table to take her hand.

"Very good. I don't think I can lose now; Lady Luck is on my side." he says, laying his lips along her knuckles gently.

And she smiles when he does.


"Those were some good hush puppies."

"I thought you'd like them and I'm glad you did. So, what do you want to do with the rest of our night, Princess? We can do anything you wish." he says.

"Let's start with a walk and see how we want to progress.' And when their business is concluded at the establishment, she'll stand and reach for his hand again. It's the same way her mother tends to reach for her father's at State Occasions: with a half-formal, half-amused sort of grace.
