Harlequin Dreams

So what kind of day can a former doctor and full time clown have?

"If you thought that was impressive, I could show you some sights," he says as they leave the alley, and head down the street. There's no sense in hailing a taxi, seeing as they're only a few blocks from the restaurant. "There's this mesa in Australia I stop by now and again. The view from the edge is fantastic." Because she seems impressed, he won't add that he usually goes there to read.

"So I, uh ... I take it you've never been to Israel before?"

"If I have or not isn't hardly the point," Harley said, "Even if you've been somewhere three hundred thousand million and one times there's always something you haven't seen," She said brightly.

Which was one of the great things about life. You never knew what flavor the pie they were going to throw at you would be the next day.

Caleb likes how energetic she seems. It's refreshing.

"Isn't that the truth. So, tell me, how did you wind up trading firearms with a stranger in a bar? That's, uh ... that's not one you hear everyday." Says the half-demon mage.

"No clue," Harley said brightly, "But whoever has my gun is going to find it doesn't like them."

Her piece had a bunch of interesting modifications.

That earns her an inquisitive look. "Trigger lock?" He doubts that's it, but people love to correct others.

"Nope, hand shocker buzzer thingie modified," Harley said with a grin, "I love my gun."

And Caleb has found what he was probing for: Common ground.

"I know that feeling. I've had my Desert Eagle for nearly a decade and a half." It's been a while since he's connected with a gun enthusiast. Not since Kenna, really."

"So, how did you modify the electric grip?" If only he knew whom he was asking that question, he might have more sympathy for his sister's views.

"It wasn't that hard, you just take a few buzzer parts from the hand shockers and put them on with a lock. There's a trick switch to turn it off so you don't get buzzed," she said brightly.

She was also very proud of her gun.
