John smiled as Abby leaned into him, returning the
favor. His arm softly squeezed her closer, just
briefly, a subtle indication of his affection.
   
  He feels that vibration more strongly as he does this.

"I bought the bookstore when I arrived in Gotham,
about a year ago. Renovated it, updated the
inventory, and gave it a new name. I don't know if I
would consider myself interested in the occult for
knowledge's sake, it's more for the practical
applications that I often find a use for. It's also
let me meet some interesting, if not scary people, and
help many others."

He shrugged. "If you're interested, we'll be hosting
a discussion in a few nights on Necromancy, is it
harmless magic or a form of enslavement. More
philisophical approach, but we always get a few
serious practitioners looking to present a pet theory
or defend and old idea."
   
  Abby may not be able to sense what Stephen is, but it 
  Dos not take a rocket scientist to see that he has a more
  than normal interest in the Occult. Its just as obvious that 
  either he does not realize just what she herself is.
  Just a bit of fluff, eh? Maybe he knows and just don’t care.
  Unsettling thought, that.
  She looks over at Morgan, to see how closely he was following
  this.
