David nodded. "Zip'll do that to you, I guess. She's...something. She's special." He looked down at the ground as they walked. "I'm still not altogether sure what she wants with a guy like me."

Eli was about to make a sarcastic comment such as he didn't know either, but they were finally getting along. "Why not? Sure, you are kinda grumpy sometimes, but even I enjoy my time with you. You're fun...in your own, David Jacobs kind of way."

David snorted. "Well, thanks, Eli. So glad you get me now." He smirked over at him. Maybe he didn't hate Eli as much as he thought he did.

They turned onto David's street, and noticed Zippy sitting on the fire-escape, shivering and waiting for David. "Crap, be cool. Don't...don't tell her, she'll panic." Eli's thoughts circulated rapidly.
"Tell her you were helping me get her a Chanukah present, which, kinda isn't entirely a lie..."

David shot him a look. "You owe me." He put on a smile as they approached her, and he went to her, pulling her up into a tight hug.
He held her a little longer than he meant to. Now that he knew what had actually happened to her...well, he wanted to hold her a minute.

Eli couldn't help it, he joined in on the hug, wrapping his arms around Zippy from the other side. Zippy laughed softly, snuggling her face into David's chest. "David.....Eli....what's going on?"

David smirked, kissing her lips softly. "He talked me into going shopping with him. It was...interesting."

Eli nodded into Zippy's back, holding her tightly too. "David's kinda a prick, but I can see why you love him."
Zippy laughed, looking up at David with amused eyes. "I'm sure he could say the same about you, Eli."

((Haha, I don't think it matters. I figured Jimmy would get Tristan in on it because, ya know, they're the Boondock Saints or whatever  )) David snorted. "Oh, you have no idea. None." He pulled out of the hug to kiss her again. "Eli's gonna find an apartment near here. You'll be close to me." |

((THIS IS ALL TRUE. but I wanted it as a bonding experience for dave and eli))
Zippy grinned at Eli. "Yeah? That'll be great! Sorry about that last apartment, it was just gonna be an awful neighborhood..."
Eli's smile faltered. "About that...if I wanted to find this Tristan fellow, where would I go?"
Zippy blinked at him. "Tris-why?" She turned to look at David. "Why!"

David winced. "Seriously, Eli? Are you always this damn bull-headed?" He sighed, holding onto Zippy. "Okay, don't be mad..."

"But I wanna hire him to beat around my foster father, who followed me and Luke to New York. I ran into him yesterday, it was terrifying," Eli interrupted, giving David a look. It was too bad he wasn't as smooth as he was. Actually, it was too bad no one was as smooth as Eli was.
Zippy frowned, pulling away from David and wrapping her arms around Eli. "Oh no! Are you okay?"
"Yeah of course. I'm a grown man now, he doesn't have any claims on us. Unless he brought his shotgun.." Eli replied, shrugging. Zippy yelped, hugging him closer and spat out where Tristan lived. Eli gave David a 'I told you so' look over Zippys shoulder.

David frowned on him. He had never lied to Zippy before, and he wasn't keen on it now.

"I'm gonna go see this Tristan. Dave? You coming?" Eli asked. Zippy pulled away, wondering when they became friends.
Although she wasn't going to complain.
