I can't see what you're imagining

Paris -Seedy Area- Aaron frowned for a moment, still playing the part, “Well I meant these two... but I bet I could too, yes! For you, darling!” The two men smirked, one of them nodding. “Alright then. How about... ten dollars?” he said, pulling out a bill. The other did as well, and Aaron frowned again, patting his pockets and producing a ten dollar bill as well. I'm not sure where he got it, but he had it. “Tell you what kid, you can arm wrestle the winner,” the other one said, “And you can have all thirty if you win.” “That's awfully generous of you,” Aaron said, stepping back as the two men got to business. After some grunting, swearing, and miscellaneous noises, the winner was declared, who flexed his hand and looked towards Aaron. Aaron stepped forward, taking his seat and bringing his arm up. His hand was completely engulfed by the other man's said. “I'll try not to break your arm,” the man said, smirking now. “Same here,” Aaron grinned back, and for a brief moment the man felt... worried. “Before we start...” Aaron suddenly said, “Maybe... make the wager more interesting?” “How so?” the man asked. This should be easy money, after all... This guy was like a stick! “If everyone here puts in... ten dollars, drinks for the night from her bar,” Aaron said, indicating Chloe, “And they get their money back. If I win, I keep the money, and that's it.” There was a roar of approval from the crowd, liking the idea of drinks. This kid was obviously drunk and trying to impress this girl, after all... it was a surefire thing! “Alright kid... Your loss,” the man said, as everyone produced some money, a sizable pile on the table now. They started, the man deciding to take his time, putting a small amount of pressure on Aaron at first. Nothing. Aaron's arm refused to budge. The man continued the pressure, his neck bulging slightly with effort. “Come on, start already!” someone in the crowd shouted. Aaron seemed to come out of a daze. “Oh... are we starting?” he asked. He moved slightly, and the man's arm went crashing down, hitting the table. Silence. “Oh... I won,” Aaron said, feigning stunned shock, “Well that was fun.” He quickly gathered up the money, turning to Chloe and grabbing her arm. “Now we walk away quickly, but try not to run, before they realize what happened,” Aaron said quietly. New York City -Hawkins' House- Galv hugged Melanie tightly, frowning slightly as he looked around. “What's wrong, did something happen?” Galv asked, “Are you okay?” |

Paris Seedy Area Chloe stayed mostly quiet as Aaron scammed the men, succeeded in getting quite a bit of cash in just one match of arm wrestling. The girl was impressed...Aaron seemed to be both strong AND very good with words. Most men she knew weren't that talented. Suddenly Aaron pulled off, the girl quickly following him and clutching his arm. "That was brilliant!" she said in an excited whisper, moving in a bit closer as they walked. "You sneaky devil! I won the jackpot with you" The girl giggled, looking over her shoulder. Hopefully the tricked men didn't realize what actually happened. Sarai's House "He’s doing a lot better. Thanks again for letting us stay here.” "I'm glad" Sarai said with a small smile "And it's nothing...It's the least I can do after all you guys have been through. Has he been awake at all? My father mentioned that he wanted to talk to him, but i'd hate for your grandfather to be bothered while he's still in pain. I'm going to try hold him off a bit longer at least." New York City Crystal’s Apartment Crystal nodded, leaning back in her own spot and closing her eyes. "Hey Sama? When this is all over and if we haven't all been killed by crazy Nazis....Can we go on an actual date? I just realized we really haven't yet. I really like you...Just so you know" The girl smiled. Thinking about this was much more fun than thinking of more terrorist activities. Hawkins' House Melanie looked back up at Galv, catching a glance of the mirror behind where he was sitting. She blinked, catching sight of that same figure once again. Instantly the woman jumpped up throwing a blast of dark shadows at the sight. Of course she only succeeded in shattering her vanity mirror. Melanie gasped, covering her mouth. "Oh my god i'm so sorry!" she exclaimed "I think i'm going crazy" |

[Paris] [Hotel Roof] Among the unconscious assassin’s effects, Marco found the note, several small silver knives, a bag full of shuriken and small pellets that looked like smoke bombs. It was a regular treasure trove of ninja tools. When he reached the roof and went through the door, he would find two more mysterious assassins – but they were on the ground. One of them was clearly dead, the other appeared to be unconscious. “Good. You’re alive.” Nanami was at the corner of the roof, peering off from the edge. “I’m guessing you ran into company too?” [Sarai’s House] Connor nodded. “Yeah, he’s been awake, but I’ve been urging him to keep resting. He lost a lot of blood, and even with my gift, he’ll still be out of it for a little while.” The boy felt strange to be talking about his healing abilities with someone. It was rare that anyone knew his secrets… but it was nice to have someone to talk to. “I can wake him up when you dad wants to talk to him.” Connor agreed. [New York City] [Crystal’s Apartment] “I’d like that more than anything.” Sama agreed, a smile appearing on his face just at the thought of it. He hadn’t expected to stumble onto romance in the middle of the investigation – but it was a lot better than stumbling onto Nazis. “It would be nice to spend some time together without people trying to kill us. Or Kimi. Or Jeremie.” Sama sighed. |

Hotel Roof Marco made his way up to the roof, noticing the assassins on the ground, especially the one who was dead, but quickly turned away from that one. He was someone who always tried to stay away from that, but... This WAS something completely different, here, than what he usually had to deal with. Plus, Nanami was basically an assassin herself, just in the role of a bodyguard for Musashi. Not much else one could expect out of this scenario. "Nice to see you again, too!" Marco laughed at Nanami's comment on him being alive. "And yeah, I ran into someone in the stairs. Found some interesting stuff on the guy, too," he then added, as he made his way over to where Nanami was, passing the note he had found to her. "Including this, which you have way better a chance at being able to read, than I do." |

[Hotel Roof] Nanami turned and stood up from her kneel, walking over to Marco and accepting the note when he offered it. Her crimson eyes scanned the paper for a moment and she swore under her breath and quickly slid the paper into her pocket. “Well, this confirms my worst suspicion. These guys were sent by Kojiro. He’s still after Musashi.” Nanami growled, shaking her head. She turned to Marco and sighed. “Good find. What about the guy who attacked you? Is he alive?” |

Hotel Roof "...it means he's figured out where Musashi is. That's worse; I don't think he would have been planning on giving up, but..." Marco trailed off, as Nanami probably knew even better than Marco what that all meant. And it wouldn't do him favors bringing that up again. "And the guy I got that from is as KOed as our friend over there," he then pointed at the one of the two assassins that Nanami had not killed. "And probably will have a reaaaally big headache when he does wake up. When I use my ability on people, it can really burn the nerves when it wears off..." |

Paris -Seedy Area- Aaron blushed a little, rubbing the back of his head with his free arm, the money in his pockets right now. “Come on,” Aaron said, ducking into an alleyway. He turned back to Chloe, moving forward and scooping her up, before he leaped up into the air and landed on the low roof top. Super strength had a lot of advantages. “If they do give chase, they won't look up. No one ever does,” Aaron commented. New York City -Hawkins' House- Galv moved forward, embracing his wife and holding her tightly, letting himself warm up a bit more then usual for her. She felt a lot colder then usual... “It's okay...” Galv said, “You're not going crazy. Pregnancy is hard enough, and on top of our powers... and if it is twins...” Galv was worried for Melanie, as per usual, but with everything happening it was especially so. Even if there weren't Nazis out for blood, this pregnancy would be hard enough... “What's happening though, is it... him?” Galv asked now. “Your... shadow?” There was a good reason why Galv was very wary of Samara... |

Paris streets Didymus walked back to the cafe, still uncertain about the day's events. "Well...this...has been a long day." he said. "Perhaps we should return to the hotel. Our other leads may take either time to investigate, or be better looked after in the day. Besides, with Miss Fontaine on our side now...we'll see how that helps." he added. |

Paris Seedy Area Chloe clutched Aaron tightly as he jumped once more, landing on the roof with little trouble. While the girl was super strong she doubted she had the skill to do that. "You sound like you do this all the time" Chloe said with a grin. "So what are you gonna do with all your new winnings?" Sarai's House Sarai gave a revlieved sigh when Connor mentioned his grandfather had been awake since being brought here. "Don't worry about waking him for now, i'm sure I can convince my father to hold off for a bit longer." she said, taking a seat and pressing some of her long brown hair behind her ear. "Your powers really are amazing...Other than your grandfather does anyone know about them?" New York City Crystal’s Apartment Crystal smiled and gave a small laugh. "Yeah....It's a shame they just don't go out together so they'll be out of our hair for a bit" Hawkins' House Melanie stiffened against Galv, before shaking her head softly. She didn't want to admit that she couldn't control her own powers, especially while she was suposed to be dealing with Blake's....But at the same time confiding in her husband was comforting. "Yeah...I think so. I don't know if it's because i'm stressed out about Blake or being pregnant, but I keep seeing things." Melanie explained, running a hand through her curly wet hair. "But i'll handle it. I'll control myself and make it go away again" She had done it in the past, how hard would it be now? Melanie stood up, deciding that she needed to eventually get dressed lest she catch a cold. She headed to the closet to find a night gown. "Though....Will you keep an eye out...In case it does come back?" she asked softly. [...] The house for the most part had gone quiet but Joyce couldn't sleep. She knew it would be very dumb to go sleep in the living room with Sage (she didn't have a death-wish after all) so instead she wandered out of her room wrapped in her blanket and carrying her pillow and sat herself at the top of the stairs, looking down at the couch where he had made his bed. From her spot she couldn't tell if the boy was asleep, but if he was she didn't want to wake him. |

Paris -Streets- Aiden followed along, looking at Didymus' hand as they walked back to the cafe, wondering if it would be okay or not to take it, or if he would take her's... She didn't really know how she should act... Then Didymus mentioned heading back to the hotel, and she nodded. “Okay then. Ummm... would I be staying there, or...” Aiden paused, then suddenly went beet red when she realized how that could be taken, “I mean, like, how Alice and her team are, or the other Americans...” -Rooftops- “Heh, not often... Well... I don't scam people often,” Aaron said, “But a lot of times I have to hide things. Keep my strength under control. I can't always act out...” He paused, then considered Chloe's question. “Hmm... how about we go out somewhere nice?” Aaron asked, still carrying Chloe. New York City -Hawkins' House- “If you need anything, let me know,” Galv said to Melanie, nodding towards her, getting himself changed into some of his own pajamas. “And I will. I'm not that sleepy yet, so you go ahead and rest. I'll stay up a bit and catch up on some reading,” Galv added. Sage shifted on the couch, not able to sleep either. He stretched, getting up now. The couch wasn't bad, but he was use to sleeping in his own bed. He sat up, not noticing Joyce at the top of the stairs, instead flicking on a light and pulling his bag towards him. He dug inside and came out with his drawing pad and a pencil, and started to doodle. |

Paris Rooftops "Maybe one of these days you can help me with that control thing, i've never been too good at it" Chloe commented. "I once broke a man's arm when he tried to flirt with me" “Hmm... how about we go out somewhere nice?” Chloe grinned, raising a brow as she looked up to Aaron. "Somewhere nice? I don't think i've ever been somewhere Paris-nice" she said with a laugh. New York City Hawkins' House Melanie nodded, slipping off to change. When she was in her nightgown the woman curled up in the bed, looking to Galv and leaning against him. She could feel his warmth....It was so nice... "If it comes back will you help me?" she asked, softly. [...] Joyce continued to watch Sage from her spot atop the stairs. She curled up against the banister and gave a small yawn. Joyce knew she was still relatively young but she was sure of it. Sage was her person. Once her mom had told her that everyone has that one person that they're meant to be with and it was their job to find them out of all the people in the world. It may take a long time, and you may make some mistakes along the way, but everyone had a chance to find their person. Joyce knew it was Sage. No one knew her better, or was more patient....Nor did he push her, or make her feel weird. He was hers. Joyce gave a sigh, smiling. |

[Paris] [Hotel Roof] “Good.” Nanami said simply as she walked over to the edge of the roof and peered off into the distance. She was certain there would be other ninjas on the other roofs – standard protocol with this type of assassination was to send in three teams. They had taken down one, but she was certain two more would be nearby. And by now, they had probably moved. She turned back to Marco. “We should take these two to the Embassy. They may talk if Musashi questions them.” [Sarai’s House] Connor sat down beside Sarai and he felt himself blush. He wasn’t used to compliments like that. He didn’t spend much time with people – he was usually alone, or just with his grandfather, and it made him feel warm inside to hear her words. “No.” Connor shook his head. “You’re the first person I’ve ever told about them. My grandfather says that it’s important to keep my gift a secret or people might misinterpret it… some people could be scared of it, and other people might think I’m some kind of holy man or something…” Connor sighed a bit. He had always been under a lot of pressure about his ability. [New York City] [Crystal’s Apartment] Sama shuddered a bit at the idea. “I doubt that would happen. I’m not sure what Kimi’s type is, but I doubt it’s Jeremie. She’d eat him alive… maybe literally.” |

Hotel Roof "That's probably a good idea, but..." Marco responded to Nanami, after thinking for a few moments. He then looked over at the KOed guy on the roof again, before looking back at Nanami. "...but this is the top of a hotel in Paris, and the embassy is... over there" Marco pointed off in the general direction of where the embassy was. "So... how would we get them there?" |

Paris -Rooftops- “You haven't?” Aaron said, “I guess that's true then, you don't go do stuff near you when live there...” He then grinned towards Chloe, “So where have you always wanted to go but haven't, here?” New York City -Hawkins' House- “Of course,” Galv said, putting his arm around Melanie and bringing her close to him, cuddling next to her, “There's nothing I wouldn't do for you Melanie.” Sage paused in his sketch, looking up to think, pausing when he saw Joyce sitting at the top of the stairs. He didn't say anything, just staring at her. |

New York City Hawkins' House Joyce was out of it for a bit, staring out at the boy for a few moments before she noticed that Sage was staring out at her. She blinked and gave a small smile and yawn. "H-Hey" she said quietly, staying where she was. She had a feeling if she went down there she would end up making out with him once again. And then they would be in trouble all over again. [...] “Of course, there's nothing I wouldn't do for you Melanie.” "Thank you" she said softly, leaning against his chest and thinking for a moment. Paris Rooftops "Well there was always one place." Chloe said with slight smile. "La Tour d’Argent is the oldest restaurant in Paris...I think it opened in the 1500's or something. I've heard the food is amazing from some of the old guys at the bar." The girl then paused, biting her lip. "Though I don't think we can get in, no matter how much money we have" she said with a small laugh. "We don't really look like the people who are allowed to eat there" Sarai’s House Either Sarai didn't see Connor's blush or she was desperately trying to ignore it so she wouldn't blush as well. “You’re the first person I’ve ever told about them. My grandfather says that it’s important to keep my gift a secret or people might misinterpret it… some people could be scared of it, and other people might think I’m some kind of holy man or something…” "You may not be holy, but you do have an amazing gift." Sarai explained, keeping her eyes low but a smile on her face. "And anyone who fears something like this is a fool. In our religion we have Dhanvantari, who is the god of healing. He gives people knowledge and the skills to perform medicine. If I, and pretty much the whole population of India, can believe something like that then surely a boy who can heal people is nothing too crazy" The girl ran a hand through her long hair. "Though I think his opinion on you hiding your powers is wrong your grandfather seems to have your best interest at heart...You're really close with him aren't you? He seems more like a father-" She frowned and suddenly went quiet. |
