The closer Hal got to the new girl, the more he felt his body flare up with electricity. He scooted a few inches closer to her, eye looking her up and down a couple more times. She was so cute! "Huh. I figured Ash would've brought that up." He shrugged, leaning back into the couch now, arms behind his head. At least if Ash was taken, he might still have a chance with this cutie. "So what's your name? You work for Ash's girlfriend?" He tried to gain some clarity in the situation as Nora and Ash shuffled into their bedroom and closed the door.

Nora made sure to give Audrey an assuring glance and smile before entering their bedroom. It was decorated with a mish mosh of goth and punk accessories. The bed was covered in a silky black bedspread. Nora took a seat on the bed, still obviously miffed about the entire situation. However, she would do her best to understand before lashing out. "I've told you plenty of times about Audrey. She's my bookkeeper. After I hadn't heard from you, I decided to ask her out for some drinks. You should know that I wouldn't do anything without your permission."

Her words were like venom, hating the fact that Ash didn't trust her. Yet, in a hypocritical sort of way, she wanted to know the details about this guy who came lumbering in with her girlfriend. "Is he the esteemed Hal you always bring up?" She raised her eyebrow in curiosity. She remembered Ash telling her vague details, one of which being a fucked up eye. Nora just knew that if Hal and Ash had crossed the line, she'd beat the shit out of him. She didn't care if he towered above her, she was fierce enough to scare any man.
