The blonde walked a little closer but just one shared look was enough to know now was not a good time. The man in the hat, stared intently at Victor and then intently at a ship that was hooting... Probably on its way out, then at the bunches of gathered Knights, discussing something. Victor had picked up a few things from his father alright, he sighed and nodded curtly then turned to Phoebe. 'So... That man I need to talk to, I think he needs to see that ship off' he said, jerking his head towards the ship that had just hooted... 'before those Rune Knights decide to hop onto it and check it for goods' he explained. 'Still up for being a partner in crime, got any ideas?' he asked.

While she was looking around, having never been by the docks.. or did she.. with.. Victor.. But they didn't look alike and names could come around as well. Funny how she met another Victor in the same place. Her eyes flashed to green when the whole job was made clear to her and she flashed him a short smile, "I hope you can run fast." Persephone purred as she stared at the knights, "You better start already." She took of one shoe, threw it a few steps away as no one was looking but the man that gave them the job, she took a deep breath and gave out a cry of pain. A Goddess knew how to act.

He clutched his chest as he sprinted, frantically scanning the area to find sharp corners to turn. He headed back towards the city, away from the docks, somehow still not losing sight of the mission. If he got caught, he'd find some way to get back at Phoebe... She'd got him into the mess, did she have a plan to get him out, or had he just been sacrificed? Turning into an alley, he pressed himself against the wall and caught his breath, a chunk of the Knights ran right pass his detour. Victor continued bolting into the alley, when he noticed a few cops did stop to check. 'Oh damn.' he growled.

She would curse herself for running over cobble stones but she needed to get back towards where Victor might be, casting her nature powers, Persephone used to ask birds where they had seen him and she quickly got a short cut towards an alley where she would bump into him again, "You can talk in five." she said in a hushed whisper and she pushed him against the brick wall behind him and simply wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him, this even surprised Phoebe, how Persephone pushed her body against the man they just met today.

Okay... he thought, momentarily lost in the kiss. That happened a little sooner than I'd expected. he thought, his eyes widened, then relaxed, once he understood the plan. She could probably feel the gentle stretch of his lips as he smirked while they kissed. Once he did see what she was doing, he realized his innocence depended on this kiss, plus, the bonus was it was a lot more fun than running around. His fingers twisted in her hair and he closed his eyes. He heard the footfall get nearer and stop beside them... Then there was the awkward foot shuffle. Garrett continued to return the kiss, putting the burden of interruption on them, and the choice to pull away, on her...

Persephone noticed, the moment Victor relaxed, even smiled into that kiss, which made her smile and definitely making sure there was not even an inch of open space between them, she heard the footsteps as well, but it was something that was only of a second importance. All she needed to hear was the footsteps to go on. The long black hair in which he twisted his fingers, would be able to hide his face and her kissing him, even more than only that and besides: why complain if something nice was giving to you? She opened one green eye to see if she could see anything, but the footsteps that had come closer, had walked on and she didn't even stop when the footsteps were far enough to let them be save. Again, why would she? Simply because Phoebe told her to was too boring of a reason.

His eyes opened a crack, and ever so slowly he backed his head away. Only enough to have some space for his lips to form words against hers. 'The plan didn't fall apart, I suppose this kiss was a neat touch...' he spoke in soft whispers and let some broken chaste kisses punctuate their long encounter. But they did have other matters to attend to... 'Come on. Let us go get our reward for helping that guy out, I bet he'd have made a big loss if the ship never left the docks.. he owes us.' Victor said, still holding her close, but reluctantly peeling her away, so she could be at his side.
'I really could get used to having you around, especially if our missions are decorated with surprises like these.' He said with a wink as he guided her back towards the docks to that mustached man. Two bags lay a little to his side... Looked like he was still not ready to talk, Victor didn't want to press the matter either, he had other things that needed more urgent attention. He swiped the bags and handed one to Phoebe. 'We should put this money to good use... Dinner or something, maybe?'

She was finally able to catch her breath when she felt him move slightly away from her, only their lips and she opened her eyes, lilac staring into his eyes, still standing so closed, pressed against him, arms around his neck, his hand in her hair and the other around her waist. "Well sometimes even a man needs saving." She said softly to which she would have to step away so they could collect the reward that the mystery man clearly owned them. She would walk next to him and couldn't help but giggle, "I think we could arrange that." It sure seemed a hell of a lot more interesting than it had ever been before.. no that wasn't true! She had had fun, with King and why was she thinking like this? She simply walked besides Victor and didn't say anything when it wasn't necessary, just waiting to reach the man who didn't talk to them, she took the bag from Victor and looked once more at the man before turning away, "Dinner sounds nice." especially after working like this, she could definitely use some food and a moment to sit and let her feet rest.
