A snippet that has been snipped during revisions.
Because it relies too much on having read Demon Night. Another exchange will take its place.

“Miss Charlie, your city is safe for one more day.†Drifter settled into the stool next to Jake. “And it seems to me I know a novice who’d also benefit from a bit of that female fashion advice.â€
“Hey. Shape-shifting into Charlie’s body was your idea,†Jake reminded him. “And no offense, Charlie–but you never looked hotter.â€
“I reckon she has. Classier, too.â€
“But I’m so trashy in a miniskirt that you fly off two minutes after I show up? Right. You were afraid you’d kiss me.â€
“More like afraid I’d start pounding on you.†Drifter shook his head when Jake lifted his ass off the stool and gave it a shake. “Well, hell. That just didn’t come out right, did it?â€
