*Eyebrows raise*

That…is definitely a good thing. Considering the, you know, puddles thing. Really don’t think I’m going to forget that mental picture.

*Nods*

I would like to learn sabre fencing, but uh… that’s not a easy thing to just find around where I live.

But yeah, that’s the most extreme sport I’ve ever been…[Read more]

Leo

His eyes slid shut for a moment. Two. Then he forced them open again. “I think she’s no danger us. I also think we could all use that chair and ice, and maybe a cup of tea.”

He scanned the alley around them, noting the flickering highlights and target boxes. The police would not doubt mark this as a crime…[Read more]

Rory

Rory swallowed and looked at Leo. He was still uncomfortable, but the picture had gotten to him in a way nothing else had. Leo was the only person he had encountered who had people like that around who loved each other. Obviously this was something close to the woman’s heart. Rory licked his dry lips, eyeing her si…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Puddles. Blood.

I… don’t know what to say to that.

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Leo is very uncomfortable. XD

Leo

“Alright, kind of creepy mask lady who I think said your name was Barnes.” Leo tried on a smile, found it fit, and left it on. It would at least sound like he was smiling. “I think we need to find our way home. Is there a mode of transportation nearby which we could aquire with e…[Read more]

Rory

Rory stared back at her. He had survived by hiding his every thought and emotion. He could play this game just as well as she could. Straightening, he let the expressionless mask slide over his face. “Trust is not a word in my vocabulary,” he said tonelessly. “For all I know you’re just trying to jeep my alive so t…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Considering Leo already went a round of treating Rory, even ignoring rest of this wild day, his uniform is probably not spotless.

Leo

He watched the exchange with growing concern, not that either of the others could see it through his darkened visor.

“We need to go home. I may not have a full medical bay at the…[Read more]

Rory

stiffened at her touch. He stood very still, his mouth tightening in a thin line of pain as the cloth bound up his wounds. “Why?” He asked again. “What am I to you?”

@whalekeeper   @koshka

Rory

Rory tightened his hold on Leo’s arm. “But why? what do you stand to gain?” He forced his voice to remain steady, trying to ignore the blood that dripped from his fingers onto the cobblestones.

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

*Sighs while vaguely waving a hand in the air*

Thanks y’all.

@whalekeeper

*barnes seems to have a thing for ripping clothing. lol*

@koshka

Rory

For a moment Rory felt like he was going to be sick. He knew he could never run, and even if he could possible force his body to move that would mean leaving Leo. He looked at the woman for a long time. At last, he spoke. “Why?”

@whalekeeper

Ah, I get it. Not like I’ve done that before

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Leo

He blinked. Looked at Rory. Smiled even though he knew the kid wouldn’t be able to it see through his visor.

“Thanks Rory.” He whispered with a light squeeze of his arm around the boy’s shoulder.

They stepped around the corner into sight of the white masked lady with the ruined blouse.

@koshka   @whalekeeper

Rory

The sound of screeching tires flashed through his mind. Hand pushing him. Pain. Blood. Yelling.

But she had saved him.

Saved his life.

Yeah, saved me so the Agents could finish the job after interrogating me.

Rory bit his lower lip until he tasted blood. At last he let out a slow breath and looked up at Leo. “…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

I didn’t meet them up, but I also wanted to give Rory a moment to process. He’s like to need it, poor kid.

@whalekeeper @ellette-giselle

Leo

He scanned the street around them and gave a grim smile at the silence. Rory’s voice sounded beside him. “Which direction? Where are your siblings?”

Leo smiled. “Left, and they’re at home.”

He led them around the corner of the church.

“Rory, the lady from the bus is on the back porch.” He felt Rory sti…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

YIPPY!

(though Rory won’t think so lol)

oh no! what happened?

@koshka

go ahead and hook up with her then. she’s probably just outside. Maybe give Rory a little warning tho. lol.

@whalekeeper

Yay!

@whalekeeper

Uncounted times in my life I have entered the children’s section of our library, see The Tale of Despereaux sitting in it’s place, displaying that adorable cover. I wanted to read it for that cover, but somehow I never have.

I think we saw the movie (or something like it enough that my brain is confused) at my aunt’s house. It w…[Read more]

Oh, dear, I still have 600 words to write.

@whalekeeper

I just realized I can’t actually flip my hair because I have a bob cut. 😐

Sad. *flips hair* XD
