(by the way, could it be 2009-ish?)
"Oh, Cruz was just giving me his number, sir!", Fae replied easily, grinning stupidly. "We were thinking of going to the Easter Fair together, with one of my other friends." She added his number into her phone, her fingers speeding nimbly across the keyboard. "Would you like me to stand at the counter for a while, or maybe sweep the floors or wipe the windows? Water the plants, if there are any?', she offered eagerly, not wanting to disappoint.
XD awe. )
And august would be so sad lol )
Augustus nodded, "Nice, be safe you guys. Uh, wipe the windows?" He asked, "Thanks, Fae; cleaning stuff's in the back."
"Awe, c'mon, Auggie.." Cruz grinned.
"Don't call me that," he squinted teasingly. "Only my brother can call me that,"
"Fine, fiiiinne.."
(The roof wouldn't be very damaged. Just an empty corner.)
(shouldn't everyone have to agree if an area that someone else made up is being damaged by another collaborator?)
(okies)
Suddenly the corner of the roof gave way.
(My oops. Lil-Owl?)
Fae ran to the back quickly to fetch the stuff and began methodically wiping down the windows, wings half-open, rays of fractured sunlight filtering through the gaps in her feathers and creating almost geometrical patterns on the floor.
Its fine, xD. )
August jumped at the sound of the corner, blurting a what the hell?
"Woah," Cruz blinked.
A man in complete black fell with the roof and started toward Augustus. Sabine jumped in behind him, and he turned around.
"Stay away from them!!" Sabine growled at him. He laughed evilly. "Try and stop me slabovol'nyy chelovek.(Weakling in Russian)
Augustus backed away in confusion, "Whaaat is going on?"
Cruz was tense, finding he'd shofted his stance to prepare himself to defend Fae.
Sabine pulled out her daggers. She shouted at him, "Mne vse ravno, skol'ko agentov vy ubili, segodnya vy vstretili svoy match." He laughed. He lunged at her and they fought, almost perfectly matched.
Fae almost screamed as she saw the girl attack the man who had just dropped from the ceiling. Jumping down from her perch, she lunged forward, past Cruz, tackling the offender and bringing him down. Grace shot out from the back room, clawing at the man's face with her sharp little claws as Fae held him down, such a fierce, dangerous look in her large eyes than Fae could ever had imagined.
Sabine gasped, clutching her side. "Thanks." She pulled out a weird looking pair of handcuffs and put them on him. "Vy otvetite za svoi prestupleniya protiv TGR." She yanked him up out from under Fae, careful not to hurt her. The man laughed."ty sil'nyy." Sabine puched him in the face, knocking him out. "Yes. I am." She turned to Augustus. "I''m really sorry for the excitement, and, y'know. The roof." She gestured to the roof.
(By the way, everything she says in a different language will be Russian.)
"What— whaat?" He stammered, hands raised in bewildered confusion. Cruz wasn't much better than his stunned boss, jaw hanging open in shock.
Sabine's dad and another man(Director Axyl) entered the shop. "I can't believe you caught him. We've been trying for months." Axyl stated, impressed. "Well, I'm young and have lots of energy." She let her dad and Axyl take the man away. She turned to the other three people in the room. "I'll fix your roof."
August just had to walk away, arms raised while he tried to register this.
"Well.. thanks…" Cruz replied, tapping his chin.
(is there going to be a lot of action in this?)
Fae blinked, confused, as she got to her feet shakily. "Shouldn't we call 911?", she asked, gathering Grace up into her arms like a baby.
(I don't think so.)
"No no no." Sabina answered a little too quickly. "It's fine. My dad's a cop, he already took care of it."
Sabine looked Fae over and sighed. "V samom dele!!! Iz vsekh lyudey !!!" She shouted. "I'm sorry. I shout in Russian when I'm frustrated." Sabine explained.She surveyed the damage that had been caused. "It's not as bad as I thought."
(ok :D I just kinda have a thing for homey stories)
Fae nodded. "As long as nothing in the shop has been broken.", she replied. Looking upwards, she saw that a small part of the roof had caved in, thankfully landing away from any of the shelves and counter. Nothing besides the roof seemed to be broken. Turning to Cruz, she put a comforting hand on his shoulder. "You good?", she asked.
