Rapid rumbled happily at the shoulder rub and rolled onto his back to let Dane massage his aching muscles more. "That feels like heaven." he sighed out. "As soon as I nap we can do something together." he mumbled, snuggling his cheek against the crook of his arm. "Something fun, you pick." he gave his foot a soft squeeze with his free hand.

Elroy patted Nico's shoulder and got up. "Come on, go eat, then we can head out to the incinerator." he wrapped his coat around him and walked over to Johnny and Sheila to get some food. "I hope this works." he guzzled the last of his coffee and set the mug down with a clunk. He saw Sheila stabbing the potato with malice. "Uh, something wrong?" he looked to Johnny.

Alliser's eyes lit up, an impish smile curling his lips. He looked at Layla as if they shared a secret. "No one will find us," he began slowly. "No one will even know we were there. Layla, darling," he swept in close to her, slinging his arm around her shoulders and pulling her close conspiratorially. "What are the restrictions to your powers? How many people can you influence, and how long can you maintain a single projection?" He flashed a smile at her, his eyes shining with mischief.

Johnny smiled weakly at Elroy and Nico as they approached. "Just having some trouble with the potatoes. They take forever to cook." He cleared his throat, rubbing Sheila's back soothingly. "How'd you sleep, Nico?"

Kate tied her hair back into a ponytail. "No, I'm not hungry. But we're going out." she pulled Kalyn to her feet. "I got my dad into that mess, I'm gonna get him out of it. We have to sneak out before the guards shift changing ends. Hurry!" she hissed, tugging her hood over her head and hovering down the stairs towards the doors.

Kalyn stumbled after her, zipping her jacket up and ducking out the door behind Kate. "What's your plan?" she hissed at her, feeling the adrenaline kicking in at the prospect of doing something reckless. "We're just gonna break in and demand they give him back?"

The boat pulled up to the docks, and Audrey stepped ahead to make sure the area was clear of any insurgents. Signalling the coast was clear, she stepped aside and awaited Alfonse's orders.
Jihun shivered as he stood close to Hana, peering into the snow. There was enough of a wind to make it difficult to see far ahead, and he tucked himself in closer to Hana to share her warmth. Hana cracked her knuckles, noticing Jihun shivering, and swept him up underarm.

Kate made a face. "well, we're gonna need some weapons so I'm going home first to break into our safe. Then we'll use the snowfall as cover and go to the Academy. Its not the best plan, but I can't sit around anymore and if my mom finds out while we try to strategize she'll nail my corpse to a table so lets get going." she waited for Rapid and Dan to vacate then slipped out the unguarded door to the outside world. She paused on the cement stairway ant turned around. "Climb on my back, I'll fly us there as fast as I can."

Alan marched behind Alfonse as the Reboot pions cleared a pasth in the snow ahead of them. The Black Pyramid building stood out behind the fat snowflakes. Alan glowered at its armored windows all sealed up since the night of the surge. He wondered what they were doing in there while their citizens suffered under the oppression of this lunatic. They reached the base, the 80 foot barrier wall that surrounded the building like a fort. It looked like solid stone but Alan knew better, it was polished carbonite, so tough not even the most roided out muscle-head could break it.
Alfonse felt the wall, coming to the same conclusion. "How far under the surface does the wall run?" he asked Alan.
"I dunno, I'm not a mole." Alan flinched as Rashida punched his gut and sent him to his knees, winded.
"Rashida hush." Alfonse grunted. He paced the base of the wall. "We'll scale to the top and check the perimter for weaknesses. Audrey, break them into teams. Anyone find anybody you bring them back alive. We need to get inside this place!" he barked.
Alan watched the groups peal off and he spat into the snow, hopefully the council had laid a few non-technological booby traps...

Layla's lips curled into a grin and she folded her arms as Alliser leaned in. "I'm glad someone's realizing how essential I am here," she said airily. She tossed her hair over her shoulder and leaned closer. "Depends on how close they are. Most I've gotten is like, six within 20 feet." She raised a brow. "Think that'll do?"
--
Nico sighed and watched Elroy for a moment before standing up. He lingered by the cot, his gaze focused on Sheila's frustrated stabbing. He could only imagine what she was projecting onto that poor potato. "Oh you know me," he mumbled to Johnny, his voice light, "I sleep like a log."

Elroy nodded. "I know, I'm jealous." He drained his mug then headed to the door to let the dogs in. "I'm gonna go out and check the foundation." he tugged his hood up and headed outside, Bobby followed him out the door, jumping in his foot prints to stay out of the deep snow. Leaving poor poor Nico alone with Sheila and Johnny.
