His upper body glistened softly in the early morning light Kai had already been surfing and now getting his work out in at the park. At current he was at the bottom of a long flight of steps and would do a 5 lap circuit of them up all the way then down and back up each time. At the end of the fifth lap he bounced in place and then stretched and did sprints along the track. The gray tank top was tucked into his deep blue work out shorts, matching the trainers on his feet.
His money was alot in the way he looked so it was good to be spotted out working out hard. He even ran into other celebs doing similar work outs, was also a good place to meet women when he was so inclined. The last script reading for the cop movie had gone well he just needed to be ready for the call to start shooting the first few stunt scenes and some of the undercover scenes. He knew it was cliche but they would have him with his shirt off at least some where in the movie so he needed to be in peek shape.
Thinking also about the vampire he'd met the other night, and how he seemed pleased that Kai didn't hang out with his family more or something along that line. Shaking his head LA was a weird place, and it was full of things and people that weren't as they seemed. Even some one who didn't know much about wereanimals would have noticed the influx of a certain species lately and it wasn't like rumors weren't flying as to why and who.

Remy had been back in LA for a few days now. His scars had healed quite a bit. Not to the point where he was willing to bare his skin just yet. His skin was still sensitive yet the scrollwork was now faint and nearly invisible to most eyes. Not to his, not to anyone with heightened senses but even so it was faint and showed as simple scarring not legible wording. He had to get moving sitting still was only dredging up how badly he wanted to kill someone. He kept going over his steps and what he’d managed to not accomplish. It was his fault that his nest was uprooted. He had no one to blame but himself. That was not a good feeling. He tried to remain peaceful and not take his frustrations out on anyone else.
Yet with a house full of lycanthropes it wasn’t easy. Lies would have been glaringly obvious so that only left truth. Which was he had failed twice. He had cost them their city. Their holdings, all gone because of him. He was right that he was at fault yet they had not only gone with him they had taken care of him during the three day turned one week travel time. He was at their disposal and yet they protected him even as they had been approached by a clan of jaguars who’d come sniffing around their vehicles outside of Casa Grande
He couldn’t let the emotions touch him he wouldn’t be of any use if he did. So he ran, he worked out he trained and plotted. He would not allow his own squeamishness, his own objections to allow his nest to be run off once more. He needed to insulate them. He needed to protect them and make sure that they were properly set so as no one and nothing could challenge them.
Lost in thought he had not paid too much attention to the celebrity on the path ahead of him. They were mostly alone so he’d poured on a little speed. It was still at the outer edge of acceptable limits yet he slowed so as to not attract attention to himself. Doing so put him nearly in lock step with the comedy action star. He wasn’t star struck but he eased some all the same. Licking his lip he tasted the magic about the man.
He called out, “On your left. Need a water break? “

Having thought he was alone he started just a bit at the voice but nodded slowing down and then jogging in place before stopping. Looking to the owner of the voice he head tilted, definitely not human but he didn't feel like the warmer variety so that left one kind. It didn't bother him any it took all sorts to live and let live in L.A. The man was ok looking and definitely in shape but he hadn't seen him on the circuits so maybe he was fresh off the truck. Ah the dream and those that probably would never get to live it.
There were fountains along the path for drinking but Kai wouldn't drink out of them for many reasons even with his water affinity. Instead he pulled a bottle for each out of his mini pack tossing one over." i wouldn't ever drink out of those things if I were you"
motioning to the closest bubbler. Then cracking his open and gulping deep then splashing some down his shoulders, pushing his fingers through his hair and grinning that multimillion dollar smile." Great day to sweat man sun is good and high makes you feel like you can run forever."

Taking the proffered water he held it moving it from hand to hand as he considered how to proceed. He wasn’t a talker. Hell these days he wasn’t much. He had a nest to look after, an ex-wife who obviously loved him though knew they shouldn’t be together, and he was back here on the west coast because of the actions of a madman. He needed the lay of the land and from what he remembered the glittering throng were the lords of the area.
Remy wouldn’t let on that he didn’t need to actually drink water. He was still hydrated enough to make the next few rounds he would make through the park. He just wanted a conversation especially as he was earnestly going to do his absolute best to protect his nest by insulate them by making ties with as many as he can. “I can hack anything that comes out of there but I don’t simply because it tastes like triple skunked ocean water. I always hate the taste of the ocean and the filtration out this way is the worst in the city. "
Shaking off the notion of the bubblers that smelled like the back side of a gassy whale." I could but hey you have a minute? I was wondering the lay of the land I’m just back and things feel different around here."

Kai despite his pubic persona was fairly perceptive so when his chatty friend didn't open the bottle right off he knew there was more to this waterbreak. Eyes racking him over and giving him some respect for wanting to know where things stood right now he nodded" ok fine we could slow walk and talk I hate standing still for to long"
It was true he was always doing something even in sleep his bed became a tangled mess because he didn't sleep in one spot, it was another reason he barely let women spend the night. They oft ended up on the floor or in a corner of even the largest cali king." So Im sure if your asking you know that I am more then what people think I am Im guessing you can either smell sense or taste it correct? I tend to keep that on the hush tho so if you would Id prefer not to see my self in the tabs ok?"
He was choosing to trust the man his pr team would skin him if they found out but he knew there was no point in pretending with this one. " The biggest change is Nicholas February hes been making him self more known, hes the MoTC fairly manipulative sort I give him a wide birth because while placating and friendly I've surfed with great whites with more tact and less deadness about the eyes. He owns a lot of things here but not as many as he'd like due to those like my cousins who'd prefer to keep him and his kind out"

Remy knew that one of the oldest confidence games in the book was to invest treasures into someone elses care. He was born in the morning but not this morning and so raised his antennae. Yes he was approaching the man but then again how hard would it be for someone to know that he’d run this route for the last week pretty consistently. Shaking his head at the paranoia that rose up he matched the mans pace. "Slow is good. I’d preciate dat."
Remy shrugged admitting to Kai’s assumption of how lycanthropes saw things. He also corrected him and taught him perhaps another way that lycanthropes realized the world. "Course I do you taste like sparkles look. And smell like a storm just before the rainbow appears. Sadly I don’t think I will be able to avoid getting tangled up with the Master. Last time I tried not to I got the scars to show for my effort. Thank you for the advice all the same dough."
He wouldn’t go into details but he would be as honest as he could. It would work better later if he was as forthright as he could be. "So with that bein said, how could I get the Masters attention without falling into whatever plans he might have going."

Listening to him speak as they walked made him head tilt at the descriptors he used but it also made him bust out laughing at the sparkles thing he'd auditioned for that horridly kitch but well received movie franchise. Though he'd read for evil vampire one time and wolf the next which were wholly ironic to him that with vampires and wolves out of the closet so to speak they still were able to pass that nonsense off as plausible. Remembering his manners "sorry stray thought"
He puzzled over the request for a bit after nodding to the fact that he was smart to know he couldn't avoid the master just be prepared for him. Then looking to him" you won't have to get his attention more then likely you already have it but hes waiting to give you some rope so to speak"
That came with a very pointed look like kai had tried to impart the man had his finger every where and seemed to know to much about everything like he had a crystal ball to watch. Some vampires hid there machinations well and got you to trust them first before they ripped you to shreds. Nick you could see coming if you knew what to look for and thats what he wanted this man he didn't know from adam but seemingly ok to have. A fighting chance, a heads up most didn't get.
"just don't offer anything you aren't fully prepared to loose or are ok with giving away hes both dream maker and crusher sometimes in the same move and a bit full of himself if you ask me but you'll see soon enough i'm sure"

Remy smirked picking up on Kai’s good mood. Whatever his thoughts had been on quickly turned as he brought up the Master of the City. He could admit that he was biased against them as a whole. He also knew that he couldn’t afford to take any of them lightly as they in his book were not to be trifled with and he knew he was not in any position to defend himself or his Nest just yet. He had all but just healed and hadn’t made any contacts. He had no resources. Hell he was still taking up space in his ex-wifes warehouse and that wouldn’t do in the long run. Remy smiled as Kai summed up what he thought of Masters all the while being a little politic in the process. Give or take the scathing view of the Masters machinations.
Nodding as he made up his mind to seek the master out more directly Remy said aloud, “I’d prefer to do things once I gained my feet and the lay of the land. But I suppose sooner than later would be better."
Remy shoved the water bottle in his back pocket and his hands in his own pockets. He needed to remain cool but he kept seeing the short dark skinned vampire that did him in. He gave decently considering the odds were so against him but in the end he lost and that’s all that really mattered. Not once but twice in his book. He’d lost his home and his nest had been cast out. He would not repeat the same mistakes. Not by half.
"Thanks Kai, for the heads up. I know vampires are their own monsters some more than others but all monstrous all the same."

" No problem man, Imma wish you luck if you ever wanna hang out or something reach out to my publicist shes in the yellow pages or on line Ill get the message. I gotta get back to my work out tho"
He gave him an up nod and then took off knowing he could be caught if he wanted but still he wanted to give some distance and time to think on all that was said. His brain was filled with the rest if his day the massage at noon and then the fitting at two. He was doing a reading the rest of the afternoon and had a " date " for the evening some heiress who was bankrolling something he had to smooth things with. Shed probably want sex and hed have to either make escuse or give in. The choice would be decided later once he got to know her some because she could be stunning but if her voice annoyed him or she was dumber then a brick he'd not be able to pull that off no matter how good an actor he was.

“Thanks for the heads up. But I think I need more than luck I could go really use a tactical layout of his empire." Remy said with an easy going smile even as his blood was running cold at the thought of dealing with another vampire. He didn’t want anything to do with vampires for a nice long while. That seemed to be a prayer that wouldn’t be answered. Cursing the unanswering spirits above and the overlistening spirits below. He was not ready for this. He had hoped the worse he would have had to deal with was Hakim’s second. The man had been a great talker and could inspire but he was terrible at follow through. He knew that as he could take Hakim he definitely could take Eudoxio especially as he was one of the few living people that knew the man’s real name.
He didn’t know why but he waved at the fleeing back of the fae as he turned and began jogging back the way he’d come. He was weirdly wired and he knew what he needed to do to center himself.
