He's behind Liliya. 10:35 AM Marsha Mathers walks in and adjusts her giant glasses. She waves to everyone and then walks to the front of the room. There are files laid out on the table before you and you are all free to flip through them. 10:36 AM ~m&m.. Eminem?~ Ace takes the file and flips through it. 10:36 AM Jameson walks in. With a new knife, one might notice. 10:36 AM Liliya does! Look at that file, girl! 10:36 AM Morgan looks at the file too 10:36 AM Lizzy looks too. 10:37 AM jameson fades into nothingness. 10:39 AM "hello everyone. We have a special mission for you today. You are helping one of our anomalies move out of their house. Now I know everyone in here is familiar with mau. Yes? Well we know her current residence holds many artifacts that may be dangerous if they get into the wrong hands. That's why you guys are going to help her move out some stuff and we are going to hold on to it for her." She smiles 10:40 AM Lizzy raises her hand for when the briefer is done but waits to be called on! 10:40 AM She nods to Lizzy. 10:40 AM "Are we expecting resistance, and do we have backup available?" 10:41 AM "we expect no resistance. She lives in a residential neighborhood and she seems to have a good reputation with her neighbors." 10:41 AM Morgan raises and then lowers his hand after hearing Lizzy." 10:41 AM "Are we plainclothes?" 10:41 AM "We are... helping her? Does that mean she will be present for the mission?" Liliya is not okay with that. 10:41 AM "yes please go in plain clothes." 10:42 AM "Ah yeah what Liliya said." 10:42 AM "she will not be present for the mission." 10:42 AM Lizzy raises her hand again, waiting to be called on again, and has a look of very high confusion on her face. 10:42 AM Liliya lets out a breath of relief. 10:42 AM "she is currently... Still to rambunctious to let out." 10:42 AM Morgan raises his hand. 10:43 AM "yes Morgan?" 10:43 AM Lizzy :v 10:43 AM "I will call on you next Ms. Lizzy." 10:44 AM Lizzy :) 10:44 AM "Will we be armed for this in case of resistance?" 10:45 AM "yes you will be allowed to bring your pistols since the carry laws in the state allow that." 10:45 AM "Lizzy?" 10:45 AM "She...lives in a residential area?

And...how long has she lived there?" 10:45 AM Morgan nods 10:45 AM He the raises his hand 10:45 AM "Can we cache long guns in the moving van if we need them?" 10:45 AM then* 10:46 AM "she has lived there for almost 10 years now give or take a few years. And no they do not know what she is. But as far as we know they all think she is an entertainer for the circus." 10:47 AM "ace yes you can but I advise that you have to be discreet about using them." 10:47 AM "Are we to retrieve specific objects, or will we be packing up the house for safety?" 10:48 AM "there are specific objects that you will need to collect. I have a list for you in your files." 10:48 AM Lizzy looks at the list. 10:48 AM Liliya does too! 10:48 AM The list details several jars, voodoo artifacts made of human remains, dolls, and a large locked box." 10:48 AM Morgan starts holding his arm up like a kid in second grade 10:48 AM Lizzy raises her hand again. 10:49 AM " please keep in mind to not open the large box" 10:49 AM "yes Lizzy?" 10:49 AM "Do we know if any mundane objects are of importance to her, that perhaps could be retrieved for leverage?" 10:49 AM "I - yes that. Leverage." 10:49 AM Lizzy holds out a fist for Liliya to bump. 10:49 AM She fistbumps Lizzy. :| 10:49 AM :) 10:50 AM → calamitous1 joined (uid345250@synIRC-BB3EFA46.charlton.irccloud.com) 10:50 AM "we know she has some old jewelry that she is very fond of so you may pick that stuff up as well." 10:50 AM Lizzy nod nod and puts that on the list with a pen. 10:50 AM She nods and adds it to her list. 10:50 AM "I think Morgan is having a stroke..." 10:51 AM "yes Morgan!"

But he should be caged." 10:55 AM "Are we authorized to bring Larry in?" 10:55 AM "if you see fit." 10:56 AM Lizzy gives a little squeak. 10:56 AM "Let's threaten to steal Larry's soul. Maybe she'll be more cooperative." 10:56 AM "we do know it is not anomalous by mau's word. She just seems to like animals." 10:56 AM She flutters her eyes and stares at ace. "I mean...that may work." 10:56 AM She nods to Ace. That's p much what she was thinking. 10:57 AM "any further questions?" 10:57 AM Lizzy stifles a laugh because that's not funny. 10:57 AM Except that its a little funny. 10:58 AM "if there are no more questions please head out and don't forget your suppressors." 10:59 AM She nods and picks one up even though she doesn't prefer to use guns. 10:59 AM Lizzy goes to get a suppressor then heads out. 10:59 AM Just lemme know when you guys are ready to time skip 10:59 AM Ace takes his suppressor and moves out. 11:00 AM Ready. 11:00 AM ^ 11:01 AM Ace? 11:01 AM ye 11:01 AM Right! 11:05 AM You all pull up into a very nice residential neighborhood.

We're picking up some stuff for her to make quality of life better, but we forgot to grab the key before we left." Ace frowns and shrugs. "I'll probably drive back over to her. In the meantime, can you tell me what it's like inside? I haven't visited her at all, since I was just a kid when she moved here.." 11:26 AM "oh she is sick!

Hopefully it's nothing. I'll tell her the Mullners said hi?" 11:28 AM He shakes her hand nice and tight with a big smile. "Do you know what hospital she is staying at. I know my kids would love to visit her since she practically helped raise them at her house here while my wife and I were at work all day before we retired." 11:28 AM Lizzy notes that they might need to amnesticize this man. 11:28 AM Liliya does her best not to cringe at that.

"Everybody's comms good to go? Thanks." He takes the key. 11:34 AM Lizzy nods. "Good to go here, Boss." 11:34 AM "Briefing did not include a 'Dottie.' I am... unsure she is human." 11:36 AM "Regardless, if we're bringing her, we should do it at night." Ace unlocks the door and stows the key.

"Clear your head. I don't want you getting hurt or killed cause something's distracting you, okay? If you can't, go wait outside by the car and start bringing in the moving boxes to the porch." Ace head snaps to the source of the sound and he heads that way. 11:49 AM Lizzy also heads that way.

"THEN WHY BREAK INTO MY HOUSE AND NOT JUST KNOCK?!" 12:01 PM Ace bends down on one knee to get on her level. "You okay? Mr. Mullner said you could have dinner with them if you wanted. And I did knock." 12:03 PM "I didn't hear you knock. Did you try more than just once?"

"H-how do I know you're not lying!?" 12:09 PM "What would we have to gain?" 12:10 PM Ace stands up and raises his hands, palms flat out. Not necessarily a surrender, but an acknowledgement of set and match. "You don't. But we can take you to your mom. Do you wanna stab us more or see her more? We can walk out that door right now and never come back." 12:10 PM "And you can ask her herself if we're lying or telling the truth." 12:11 PM "y-you know where she is?"she lowers the knife and she looks horrified.
