I … heard about that. [ "Heard." Like she didn't experience Donnie's memory like it was her own. ] The invasion. Not much, but it sounded ... [ How do you even encapsulate the enormity of alien invasion? ] like it was a lot.
If the repair work's still on-going whenever we get an opportunity to leave this place, I was thinking about offering to come help you guys out with it.
[ Cloak on, weapons equipped, pendant safely around her neck as always. ]
Just be a second.
[ Teleports over to him while she's still in the middle of pulling one of her boots one-handed, slipping her phone into her makeshift cloth bag with the other. ]
[Yeah he'll hang up and wait where he is just outside the gate in the snow. Thankfully he's bundled up warm this time with both katana strapped to his back and waiting. Soon as he sees her, he gives a wave.]
[As they walk, he'll use his ninpo to turn one branch into a katana, then tuck it into the snow in the underbrush next to a tree. Fairly hidden. He'll do that periodically while they walk: pick up some branches, turn one into a sword, hide it.]
He's out here somewhere, probably, might even be listening right now. So I don't wanna give it away.
[ his portalling is so goddamn impressive it's hard not to get starry eyed all over again. she lets herself watch, at least, when she's not taking a moment to strain her senses for any sign of trouble. ]
No hot chocolate, unfortunately. [ HER FAVORITE. What she wouldn't give for a cup. ] But I went the other day with a teammate and stocked up on a whole bunch of different teas and coffees. I found a black tea blend with strawberry and bergamot? Or that's what it tasted like. Super yummy.
My stash is yours for the raiding. And if you want company for the kitchen ruin, let me know? I don't love the paranoia gas situation, but it's not the worst.
[ she's already hypervigilant. what's a little more! ]
[ (a lot. a lot more. eugh.) ]
[ pauses when she hears a branch snap ... somewhere. might've been leo. might have been something else. ]

They probably wanna finish repairing the lair and help April with stuff since the invasion.

[Hmmmmmm she's sneaky.]
Especially Don if it means he gets to spend more time with you.
no subject
[ Shuffles over to open the window, perching on the ledge. ]
So are you, for the record. You said the F word, there's no getting rid of me now.
no subject
Oh I wouldn't dream of getting rid of you at all. You're stuck with us.
no subject
[ Hmm. Blue sighted. She just keeps an eye out for now. ]
I can and will pop up where you least expect me.
no subject
Oho. Well I'll have to keep my ninjocity at max level to keep you on your toes.
no subject
[ Grabs! Her cloak! ]
no subject
[So she has eyes on him..... Not the worst, and if she wants to come maybe it'll help having a second set of eyes here.]
Come on.

no subject
Yo.
no subject
[ BOOTS: ON. Success. She's ready to go. ]
So, what's the plan?
no subject
[Now that she's here, he starts walking, occasionally picking up a limb or broken branch and starts a stack in his arm.]
So fun thing we can do, at least I do it. I dunno about the others, but I can turn any of these into a weapon.
no subject
[ a thoughtful hum. ]
Bear traps for Belos or something? [ She doubts it, there'd be too much risk of hurting something or someone he didn't mean to. ]

[ Hm, she forgot gloves — wait, no she didn't. Pulls a pair out of a pocket she'd sewn into the inner lining of her winter cloak. That's better. ]
Which reminds me, I'm inviting you over to Sparrow for a hot drink after this.
[ offers him a nice branch ]
no subject
Every now and then he'll look up at a tree, portal himself up high and hide a sword in a tree before coming back down.]
Oh yeah? What drinks d'you guys have?
no subject

I have got to get to the kitchen ruin to get something to bring the flavor syrups back with.
no subject
HER
SUGAR ]
I've got a bunch of tupperware you could use? Bottles would probably easier though, for syrups.
no subject
[Twirls one katana around his hand before going up in a tree again.
Then back down next to her.]
Bottles are definitely easier.

no subject
[He definitely heard it. Can pinpoint where it came from, but he's not making a move to acknowledge it yet.]
no subject
[ Casually retrieves her titanium bo, soundlessly extending it with the press of a well-concealed button. ]
Sibling prerogative. On the other hand: syrups.
[ Another snap. Closer. Another to the west, further away. ]
no subject
[He takes a breath at the second sound. Flicks his eyes to Korone and tilts his head back toward the first one.
You take that one, unspoken as he walks past her in the general direction of the second snap, sword over his shoulder.]
