John Constantine

Not the nicest bloke you've ever met, but I do me best.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

Hanging up the coat. This is me done. Fuck it all. Save yourselves.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@mrvolac Nice dress.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen Ciggie, innit?

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen [London seems darker with John in tow. The shadows loom; strangers leer with unblinking eyes.] Read much about the Salisbury poisoning? Nasty stuff. Second bloody cold war, I'm telling you.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen [If looks could kill.]

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen [John's up, Silk Cut between his teeth. How he affords those in this economy is probably the greatest magic trick he's ever pulled.]

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen C'mon. This is a miserable bloody place anyway.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen Maybe I bloody should have. [Uncomfortable silence. Drinking.] Sorry. Shite mood. Fancy a walk?

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@WarriorOfAngels I'm many things, luv, but I've never been one for soul trafficking. Nasty business.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen You met me. I was already here.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen Maybe some other time, luv. Not really in a happy, sociable place these days.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@WarriorOfAngels Hear you wanna chat with mum. At any cost. That true?

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen Oh? [Perks up, very slightly.]

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen What's the usual? Theft and boozin'?

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen Did I miss anything important?

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen Sure it is, luv. [He doesn't seem too thrilled either. Christ, he's getting bitter in his old age.] Just a bloody headache, innit? All of it.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen [By John's face it's clear to see that the nice bloke is in fact very probably dead.] Well I'm here, in't I?

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen It's not actually my job, you know. I don't get paid for that... Met a ah, met a nice bloke actually, for a bit.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen [John looks mildly annoyed that his radically different appearance has even been noticed.] Been busy. Same old.

[John Constantine @MagpieofMagic]

@YourBanditQueen What's that bloody tone supposed to mean?
