<img style="max-width:25%;float:left;margin:0 18px;" style="avatar" src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f206/Blade_Redwind/Alonimi/Trinity-1-1.png]The word ‘limbo’ brought an old feeling to mind; it was one she lived with every day in some respect, even if she didn’t think about it often. Some of her kind enjoyed what they were; many of them did, in her simple opinion. She didn’t begrudge them; didn’t judge. To each his own, right? But normal had long been a noun not designated to her. Normal, depending on who you were, and weren’t, meant fitting in and following the cultural now. And Trinity, if anything, lacked the ability to follow what was normal for her kind or for the world of man—one foot in the grave withstanding.
Suffice it to say, ‘limbo’ rang resoundingly.
His description of the location—boonie—made her smile just so over her drink, holding it to her lips a moment as she considered. “Someone to talk to?” She asked of him ‘finding someone'. He liked to talk, but it was obvious that it needed to be on his terms—or so it seemed. Perhaps not the topic; though she didn’t know him well enough to know that for sure. If his appearance bothered her she didn’t show it; in truth, it didn’t. While Trinity looked like an expensive version of the Old West with her pants and duster made of suit material, shined boots to match, and a flat brimmed hat made of fine leather, she was accustomed to people who were anything but what they appeared to be. You had to be in her line of work—the middle path between hell and money.
She took a sip off her glass finally and then set it down while partially leaning over it. Another drag off her smoke, another exhale, before she just rolled it between her fingers idly. “I know the type… They ask you to meet them here?” He looked like he fit in, but Trinity didn’t assume any farther than the average Joe could shoot. “The type that makes me wait wouldn’t step one foot in here unless their life depended on it, or their existence…” Another swallow before she nearly drained the glass. One finger tapped it as she made eye contact with the bar tender.
At his comment about ‘new age-y shit’ she almost laughed, but then he reminded her in some part of someone she knew. “Some people are,” she agreed. “Some people just seem lost to the masses, when really they're just figuring it out—whatever it is.
“Sometimes half the reason anyone’s lost is to find out where they need to be.” She shrugged as the woman finally filled her glass again. “Then again, some of us need that cycle—that limbo. It’s a way of teaching us, eventually, to quit being fuckin’ insane.”
