Thank god for 24-hour pancake shacks. Chase could go for some syrup-slathered breakfasty stuff right now, and the IHOP's a lot cleaner than White Castle.

He's not certain that all IHOPs have unusual breakfast condiments lying around in the kitchen, either, so that's another stroke of luck for them.

Chase leaves the men's room with a spring in his step. Winning is ten times more fun when the game's that close, and as far as he's concerned, even more fun than that when your opponents are crazy Scientology rejects, or whatever the hell those cultists were. He looks around for Lyrae ( Read more... )

Chase ducks behind a pillar, panting. He's always been good at laser tag, but this game is close.

The door from the bar opens into Chase and Kim's living room.

Chase hasn't spoken to Kim since that conversation with Lyrae two days ago. It's been easy enough not to--he's been working late and going to bed early and spending most of his free time holed up in the bedroom researching new CTU protocols ( Read more... )

Chase has carried Kim up to their room and shut the door.

So much blood--

He wants the blood gone. Even if it isn't hers--

--could have been hers--

He lays her out on the bed and wets a washcloth in the sink to clean Behrooz's blood from her hands and arms.

She's still drenched in it--He stands for a moment, rubbing his eyes wearily, and ( Read more... )

[OOC: Millitimed to during the band candy plot, after this.]

Chase really is hell-bent on getting that dragon tattoo. Unfortunately, it's occurred to him that he doesn't really have a whole lot of money.

So he's just sitting in his room, sulking at Chloe.
