I can't see what you're imagining
New York City

-Hawkins' House-


“Hey...” Sage said, staring up at her, trying his best not to get up and get too close, also worried they'd get in trouble if they were caught. He paused, then bent down to his drawing. After a moment he looked back up, then showed the paper to Joyce. It was a picture of her, the boy looking sheepish now.



Galv held Melanie close, running a hand down her arm, letting himself warm up a bit more.

“Tell me if you get too warm,” Galv added, not wanting to make his wife uncomfortable.

Paris

-Rooftops-


“Well that's easy to fix,” Aaron said, “We just need some better clothes. I can get my hands on a suit without my trouble. After that, it's just acting like we have no reason not to be there.”

Another trick Ethan had taught him and Adrianna. If you acted like you belonged somewhere, more often then not people assumed you did.

[Sarai’s House]

Connor smiled a bit. He wanted to believe that Sarai was right, and that hiding his powers was a mistake. He had always wanted to help people – to heal them and to make their lives better. After all, what was the point in having a gift if not using it to help others?

Yet he was unsure. He knew his grandfather was wise, and he had always trusted him on this point for the most part.

“I am close to him. He basically raised me my whole life.” Connor said, smiling sadly a little. “I never knew my actual father. He died when I was very young.”

[Hotel Roof]

“That’s a good question.” Nanami replied with a frown. She walked over to the edge of the roof and peered over. She supposed that they couldn’t very well scale down the side of the roof carrying a man, and they certainly couldn’t take him through the hotel.

“… Maybe you can go down and I can toss him down for you to catch?” Nanami suggested, but after staring at Marco for a minute she dismissed the idea. “… On second thought, I have a better idea…”

Her crimson eyes focused on a nearby water tower, on the next rooftop.

“…I can lower him down in a bubble. Then we just need to steal a car and drive him back to the Embassy.”

Didymus simply shook his head at Aiden's comment.

"You're...actually not part of the team. Officially." he said. "And it is kind of large as is...not sure how more recruits would be taken."

Especially, he thought, of this type.

Namely ones with no connection to Musashi...

Hotel Roof

Marco stared back at Nanami with his expression turning into one of slight skepticism, when she suggested he go down to "catch" the KOed assassins from the roof, not entirely sure if that was Nanami's idea of a joke, or if she actually was serious about that idea.

“… On second thought, I have a better idea…”

"...that's good. Heh..." he answered quietly to Nanami's following comment.

He then listened to her new idea, shaking his head in agreement.

"That seems like a good idea," Marco added, as he looked around towards the less busy sides of the hotel, trying to figure out where the best place to pick this guy up would be.

"Though someone's probably going to be pretty pissed at all of the car thefts that are happening around us, now," he then added with a laugh, before heading back towards the door on the roof, so he could get down to where Nanami needed him to be.

((Marco can get down there whenever is needed for story progression, if the roof scene ends with your next post or something))

-Paris Streets-

Aiden was quiet for a moment, thinking. Obviously she didn't want to just say goodbye to Didymus after she had finally worked up the courage to tell him that she liked him, and wanted to try and get to know him better...

“I can help,” Aiden said, “I can provide translations. I know English, French, Latin, and some Spanish and German. Not much of the last two, honestly, but enough to get by...”

She thought some more, looking up to Didymus. “And I want to help... I stumbled into all this, and it wouldn't feel right to just walk away from it... Not when I think I can help.”

Aiden looked at Didymus a moment later, then looked away with a small blush, twiddling her thumbs.

“...And maybe my... abilities might mean something for this... I always wondered... God gave my father and I these powers, He must have something in mind. If not to combat evil and the darkness, what else could it be?” Aiden added.

Didymus was unsure what to say, if anything, to Aiden's comments about her powers, being himself not too sure of their source, or the appearance she had.

He DID know what to say in response to her desire to go with them, though.

"I'm not even willing to entertain the idea until you've talked to your father about it." he said.

Even then, he wasn't going to make any promises...

“Oh! Of course...” Aiden said, “But... I am an adult! I can do things without his permission... Though it would be best to tell him...”

Aiden looked nervous. She wasn't sure if she (or Didymus), should also talk to him about them kind of sort of seeing each other. Aiden wasn't really sure herself what to call it. They weren't exactly dating after that conversation earlier, but they weren't exactly not.

It was confusing for the poor girl, but she did want to try and figure it out.

“We could go talk to him now,” Aiden suggested, “He should still be at the church.”

[Hotel Roof]

“Get down there. I’ll meet you in a minute.” Nanami said, and then she paused and returned her crimson gaze towards Marco. “… and be careful. We can’t be sure there are no other threats here.”

She moved to the side of the roof and aimed a throwing knife at the water tower. It smashed into the wood, creating a small trickle of water pouring out. She concentrated, creating a large bubble and wrapping it around the man on the ground.

After a moment, she forced the bubble to float down the side of the hotel, into the alley, where Marco was waiting. Once she was confident it was on the ground, Nanami turned headed for the ground.

[Alleyway]

When Nanami emerged from the hotel, she ran over to Marco and the unconscious assassin.

“We should head back.”

Alleyway behind the Hotel

"Yeah, and preferably before he decides to wake up,"

Now with Nanami around to keep an eye on the guy, if he woke up, Marco tried starting up one of the vehicles in the alleyway, to be their "escape vehicle". Once he got one started, he helped Nanami stuff the unconscious assassin into the trunk, so he could travel in style, as Marco and Nanami drove back to the embassy.

"So, you think this guy will be helpful, for them at the embassy to interrogate, or is that going to be what you try to do, back there?"

[“Borrowed” Car]

Nanami made sure that the unconscious assassin’s hands were bound with a thick coating of ice before she slipped into the passenger seat and leaned back as far as she could.

As Marco asked the question, Nanami was wrestling with the same thought.

“I doubt he’ll give us much information.” Nanami said, shaking her head. “Typically, with assassins like that, they’ll only be told what they need to know for their mission. He probably doesn’t have any real information… but we still need to try.”

New York City

Hawkins' House

“Hey...”

Joyce smiled down at Sage as he acknowledged her from his spot. "Hey..." she responded back quietly.

Suddenly Sage showed her the drawing of herself, and the girl's eyes widened. It was her...And was beautiful. "It's beautiful" she whispered, hugging her blankets around her shoulder. She wanted to go down there but made no move. She needed to take her dad's advice and not move too fast. "I wish I could draw you something"

It would be a sad stick figure. Awww.

[...]

"I'm fine, really" Melanie said, holding up her hand and watching her fingertips. They suddenly went dark, a bit of black fog floating around. She let it go on for a few moments before curling up against her husband and falling asleep. It was about time considering how awful she had been feeling.

Paris

Rooftops

After that, it's just acting like we have no reason not to be there

Chloe gave a small laugh, not sure if Aaron knew why them getting in would be so hard. She definitely admired his optimism though. "Alright, if you can get us in and keep us in i'll give you a reward" she told him. "But I don't think you caaaaaaaan. We're a bit too different than the others"

Sarai’s House

Sarai frowned deeply, unable to imagine her life without her father. Sure he was extremely overbearing and often got in the way, but he was her dad....She never knew her mother though....Maybe it was like that?

"That's good that you have someone to be so close to...Especially when your father isn't around....But....What about your mother? Is she around?"

Sarai was starting to feel as if she was prying, she blushed suddenly. "Sorry, you've probably had enough of this conversation. Your grandfather is very nice though. I'd love to get to know him"

[Sarai’s House]

Connor smiled sadly. In truth, he couldn’t remember the last time he had spoken about his family. Often times the only company he had was his grandfather, and Connor knew better than to bring up the subject around him.

“… No, my mom’s not around either. Unfortunately, my parents disappeared while on a job…”

His voice cracked for a moment, but then he shook his head. “It’s alright. It’s just been a while since I spoke about them… but I’m glad you like my grandfather.”

“… No, my mom’s not around either. Unfortunately, my parents disappeared while on a job…”

"Oh....I'm really sorry about that..." Sarai said softly, pressing her long hair behind her ear. "But if you ever want to talk about them, good or bad, i'm here.I never knew my mother so I suppose I can relate, at least a bit"

She then took Connor's hand, leading him towards the door. "Perhaps we should go somewhere and...do something. You know, to get your mind off of all of this"

[Sarai’s House]

Although the subject of his parents always brought certain sadness to Connor’s heart, he felt better than he usually would have. The smile stayed on his face. He looked to Sarai, thinking briefly about how cute she looked as she brushed back her hair, and then he nodded slightly.

“Yeah, that’s a good idea. I’d appreciate that.” He smiled to her as he followed her out the door, acutely aware of her holding his hand and blushing slightly.

Paris

Sarai’s House

Sarai led Connor down the hall and through a small doorway that led to a spiral staircase that went several floors up. When they finally reached the top Sarai pushed through a dusty half broken window and pulled herself onto the roof. "I come up here when I want to get away from all my brothers and the noise. I'm the only girl in my family so it's easier to spend time up here thinking to myself than to try and relate to them." she explained, finding a spot and leaning back on the shingles and staring up at the sunset. "All four of them are British Indian army, so they often head back home to train and stuff. I'm kinda stuck here until the British call my dad back home."
