*Billy frowns*
Billy: A tool belt. Really?
*Rolls his eyes and chuckles*
Billy: Ahhh boy... Well, I think I'm gonna go, see yah. Hope you and Scatty go well.

*Leo nods*

Leo: I should check up on her.

*Leo stands up and heads back into the room in search of Scatty*

*Billy goes back to his room, plays a little Payday and goes to bed*

*Scatty is in her room staring at her phone. Her face is drawn and she's much paler than normal*

*Leo looks in the lounge and then heads towards Scatty's room*

*Her tail sways slowly*

*Scatty puts her phone down and stares distracted the wall, biting her nails nervously*


*Gharn was passed out again but Morri waved*


*Aoife is practicing in the gym*

*Leo knocks on Scatty's door*

Leo: Scatty? You in here?

*Scatty starts and shoves her phone in her pocket then forces a smile*
Scatty: Yeah! I'm here! Come on in!


*Nicholas walks into the kitchen and is extremely disappointed Quetz isn't surprised*

*Leo walks in*

Leo: Hey Scatty. You alright in here?

*Scatty smiles, slightly less forced than before, but is still extremely pale*
Scatty: Y-yeah! I'm fine! How are you?

*Leo kisses Scatty on the cheek*

Leo: You sure? You look like marble.

*Scatty pulls Leo down and cuddles her*
Scatty; I-I...
*She sighs*
Scatty: I got a phone call... or a voice mail rather... from my father...
*Shudders*

Leo: Is that not good news?

*Looks confused*

*Scatty sighs*
Scatty: I... I don't know. You remember what happened last time?
*Pokes out her tongue with the little gold bead on it then tucks it back in her cheek*
*She pulls out her phone and plays the message. A deep voice comes over the speakers*
Voice: Scathach, this is your father. I want to speak with you face to face. Meet me in the old house in two weeks. Do not bring your sister
*Scatty shudders again and loses what color she had regained from cuddles*
Scatty: I don't trust him, not for one second... but I... I think I should go... I don't know... what do you think I should do?
*She looks up at Leo, seemingly genuinely frightened*

Leo: If you feel you should go. Then do it... You'll need someone to go with you who is a master of stealth. Because if he doesn't want your sister there, I don't think he'd want anyone else either.

*Leo hugs Scatty softly*

Leo: But you don't have to go. Here you are safe. But the choice is up to you.

*Scatty sighs and leans on Leo*
Scatty: I just don't know... He just said not to bring Aoife...
*Cuddles but looks distant as she does so, as if she's not focused on Leo*

Leo: Don't rush yourself. You have lots of time to think about what your going to do.

*Leo holds Scatty and gently plays with her hair*

*Leo hums quietly as she does so*

*Scatty sighs and nods*
Scatty: Yeah... I need to talk with my grandfather, he might know what to do...
*Just sits with Leo and gets NPC'd after a while*

*Leo hugs Scatty and sits with her for a while*

Thank feth I moved...

*Maria walks out after a long bath*

Hello folks.
*waves looking relaxed*
Quiet round here. .

*the figures look at the agents*
*on encrypted coms*
Colonial agents. Do we engage?

-Hello. It has been quiet, yes. I'm waiting for the signatures in the forest to realize that I see them.-

*awkward silence from the forest*
*very quietly*
gak.

*The two Department agents walk into the forest and turn in the rough direction of the signature*
Come out with your hands up. Our auditory sensors heard that.

OOC:
Sorry V. Class is about to start. Can you give me about an hour and 15 minutes?

*maria*

More lurkers...
If they can work out to ask nicely. Some of the forces round here could help flush them out. I hered space wolves where out there... Howls... Has to be them

Since you arrived sneaking up on this place very difficult...

OOC: Sure man, I have classes as well

BIC:
-It's more a case of the Department being incredibly good at what they do. This Room is a "contained" anomaly, after all.-

*maria*

Aye... Long as they can remember this is a home....

Its not a anomaly lab... We have families living here and friends...

*shrugs *
Contained is a joke... They would need a army of agents to deal with the anomalies' that happen on a weekly basis...
