Georgina is at the bar, drinking a vodka tonic, and talking quietly with the bartender.

Jackson walks in slowly he is dressed in black jeans and a simple shirt with that long duster."Well, we have had a busy day in here." He walks to a stool ploping down into it as he looks over at Gerogina.

"A busy morning, at least," Georgina agrees while stirring her drink.

Jackson nods slowly watching her for a moment, as he leans against the bar with his hand is bring up a coffee after filling to his lips."So, whatcha doing with the rest of your day?"

"Nothing," Georgina shrugs. "This is it." She raises the glass to him, eyes wide and narrowing in the distance. "Fun, fun."

Jackson nods slowly, as he looks at her."If you wish, you could come meet my new friend?"

"Not really," Georgina turns her attention on him, an eyebrow raised. "Do I have a choice?"

Jackson looks at Gerogina with a little chuckle."Of course, you have a choice. Not forcing you to do anything." He sips his coffee watching Gerogina for a moment, as he shakes his head."Why would I force that?"

Georgina smirks and sips from her glass. "Anyway, no, I don't want to meet your friend."

Jackson stands up as the duster flutters around him, as he looks at her with a little chuckle."I thought you wanted to meet the newest family memeber, broken free of her shackles. Once more to walk the earth, in the service of father." His voice is cold, as he walks over to sip his coffee with a little smile at Gerogina."But, if you don't wish to it is no skin off my nose."

Georgina shakes her head at the offer. "No. I expect we'll meet eventually." An eyebrow raises at him, "Are you in procurement?" Her head tips his way, holding the glass up by her brow. "You should be."

Jackson watches Gerogina for a moment, as he shakes his head slowly."No, I'm in R&D that is what I do I build things, and I make things. Drugs, weapons, fetishes, binding of spirits." His voice is soft, as he exhales the smoke into the air, as he looks into her eyes."But what makes you think, I should do that instead?"

"It's two in less than a month," Georgina says to him with a flutter-blink.

Georgina nods, "I'm just saying is all, Jackson," a hand rises up by her shoulder. "You have a calling."

Jackson grins softly as he looks into Goldie's eyes."Or maybe I got lucky twice, I might go my whole life without find two more perfect for the love of father." His voice is soft, as he waves towards her with a little chuckle."So, you enjoying your new life?"

"Somethings better than others," Georgina admits with a smile. She gestures to a stool beside her and head tips, "Are you rushing off right now?"

Jackson shakes his head as he sips his coffee watching Gerogina, as he shakesh is head."No, just feeling hyper, ready for action, I wanna play a riddle game would you?"

"Sure." Georgina smiles, "Although I'm not very good." A shrug, "Go for it."

Jackson nods slowly as he gives the first riddle, it is an easy one to start with as he watches Goldie."The rules are simple, first to three points wins." His silver eyes watching her, as he sips his coffee. The riddle is given, slowly as he slides a cigarette out of his black case, as he places it between his lips.

Georgina tilts her head and nods, listening as he explains. "Alright."

"It is a way to best spirits, to bind them, it useful to know." Jackson nods slowly, as he flips the timer now on his phone."60 seconds to answer, that riddle starting now." His eyes watching hers, as he delivers the words once more, as he watches Georgina.

Georgina doesn't guess the riddle in time. She raises an eyebrow at him and tips her drink in the air, saying, "See, I told you, I'm no good at them."

"One point for me, then you ask me one. You may use your phone to ask it, pick one you see there." Jackson nods slowly, as he leans against the bar, as he exhales the green smoke into the air now, as he watches Georgina.

"What is the point of this, Jackson?" Georgina asks him, sounding as if she's growing tired of his games. She sets her glass down and points.

Jackson grins softly, as he watches Goldie as he is stumped this time, as he marks it down on a napkin."That was a good one, very good riddle. I'll have to remember that." His eyes watching Goldie's for a moment as he speaks softly, as he grins softly."You asked me once to teach you about the umbra, the spirits so this is part of that if you still wish to know, it is how you gain power over them, tricking them, to make your brain move, using your wits to control and move others."

'Wait, wait,' Georgina shakes her head now and tells him, GENTLY, but says, "I appreciate what your looking to do, but Kurt was really firm on this. Sheri is allowed to teach me, Ivy is allowed to teach me. Emily is allowed to teach me and he is allowed to teach me." Her head shakes, "If you want to teach me something, he should be asked as a show of respect."

"No this is a game of riddles, you asked what the point of riddles was, I'm testing myself." Jackson watches her for a moment with a shake of his head."This is a game, nothing more than that. But you asked why Riddles, this is not a lesson. I'm not teaching you the words of the other side, nor anything besides passing the time."

"Okay." Georgina is in no position to question him. "What else is it that you want me to do?"

"Well do you wish to withdraw from the game?" Jackson watches her now as he leans on the bar, as he watches her for a moment, as he delivers the next riddle to her.

Georgina looks to her glass and sips from it, shaking her head at him, "Why do you care about me, Jackson?" she asks with a squint. "Sometimes I feel like you hate me, other times I feel like you care about me and mostly I can't figure out why."

"I brought you into father's world, and you are still something I care about. Your path took you away from me that is fine, you work at my bar. Help me run it, why the fuck would I not care about you?" Jackson watches her now, with a little chuckle, as he looks into her eyes."I don't hate you, why would I hate you and but your not my pupil nor my lover, your family. What do you want me to do Georgina?"

"You understand that I'm kin to a clan Elder and that's a huge responsibility for me? To represent myself well, not to disrespect him accidentally, not to shame him?" Georgina asks Jackson with a tip of her head. "I am to go to him and HE goes to others if I have a problem, I'm not supposed to go to you directly. I did, today, by the way and I'm -- really concerned that he'll see it as a major insult." She frowns, "Our relationship is too familiar, Jackson, and I want to -deal- with you as a friend, and the truth is that by -cutting Kurt- out then he is going to -feel- like I am disrespecting him. You have to go to him to ask me to do stuff like meet your new woman. You have to ask him if you can have my time."

"You are family," Georgina adds, raising a hand up, "But from this point on I can never do that again. From this point on, if I have frustrations I have to share them with him and he'll take it up with you."

"I see well than, I don't wish to tug you in this manner using myself from now on your just kin, got it your fired." Jackson walks over erasing her name from the board with the back of his hand."Viviana runs this bar now, I have made it easy for you. Feel free to come back to drink, but you as if now no longer work here, enjoy your time with your mentor, your elder. I don't wish to cause you trouble, have a lovely night Gerogina."

"Yes to be honest, it's my bar, it's my pack's I have given it to Russ. My pack runs this, I will not have another Alpha of a pack throwing his weight around in my terriotry." Jackson watches her for a moment, with a little chuckle."So yes your fired."

"Okey doke," Georgina slips off the stool and heads to the door. "Have a good night."
