58th Hunt [Voice|....Action?]

Hey, April, Donnie. When you guys have a moment, need to talk with you down in the kitchen, it's about the house.

[And that is exactly where Derek will be, making coffee...and pancakes. And probably bacon and maybe hasbrowns. Hope you aren't a calorie conscious kind of girl, April ( Read more... )

household, event: infiltrating

Knock knock...[April drums her knuckles against the doorframe to the kitchen before entering. She heard his request over her journal and has come looking for him.] Hey. Would this be about DOWNSIZING our house, considering we seem to be the only ones living in it anymore?

[Flip tone aside, April's been REALLY worried about her turtles.]

[Derek looks up from the batter he's mixing.]

Hey. [He settles the bowl to the counter top and then turns so he can lean against it himself.]

And no. We'll still need the room. I'm being sent in with the infiltration team.

[Silence. April leans against the counter, stunned at the information. She hadn't been apprised of this latest communique concerning the kidnappings. A big part of her is upset and anxious about the fact that she wasn't selected. Her computer knowledge could have aided them all; she could have helped get Raphael out quickly. He'd need her...

No. He didn't need her. Derek would be far handier to have in the mix than her. She takes a deep breath and smiles weakly at the vampire hunter.]

Oh.

Yeah.

{Truth be told, if he knew her skills and had been given a choice, he would have asked for her to be allowed to go. But he doesn't and he hadn't, so...]

...I'll bring Raphael home.

[He says this matter of fact and with no hesitation. As if there is no other option.]

I...believe you. What about Donatello? [She's not sure what she's really asking him here. Was Don selected? Does he know about the mission?]

Don's...out. Waiting for Raphael to come back. Looking for him. If he doesn't come back to the house, you'll have to find a way to tell him what's up once I'm gone. Don't use the journals, though. We can't leave anything the Malnosso might find.

Yeah. He's been OUT ever since it happened. [She drags out a chair with her toe and sits down, apparently in a bit of a moody attitude.] When do you leave?

Sunday morning.

April, there's a good chance there might be a retaliation for this, possibly before we get back. Keep on your toes.

[She stiffens and stares at the wall.] Retaliation like killer robot retaliation?

Possibly. Or asshole angel types that can use magic. Hard to say. But the possibility is there. Or nothing may happen.

[And what am I supposed to do, Derek? I don't have my computer equipment here. There's nothing I can really rig up. I'm not a fighter. April slumps back in the chair and rests her head against the wooden back.]

Right. I'll be ready. You don't need to worry about me, Derek, just worry about yourself.

[Keep yourself in one piece, April. That's all I'm asking.]

Don't worry about me, either.

[Of COURSE she is going to worry about you, Derek. See these gray hairs? She didn't get them from not caring about her frequently-in-trouble friends.]

Why would I worry? You can take care of yourself. But---yeah, be careful. [She can carry off the tough girl act for about four seconds when it comes to something like this.]

And you can take care of yourself, too.

...Just watch your back.

[Right back at'cha, lady. Just so we're clear, this not-worried worrying is all on the table all nice like, and stuff.]

[A snort, but then April nods.] Who's going along to look after you?

[Action] derek_bliss October 12 2010, 01:23:12 UTC
Whoever else gets stuck with security duty. It'll be fine.

[If he can hunt a Master down with nothing but a kid, an artist, and a wanna-be Padre, surely he can work with whoever Catherine and Albert stick him with.]
