"They say we are asleep until we fall in love
We are children of dust and ashes
But when we fall in love we wake up
And we are a god and angels weep
But if I die here tonight
I die in my sleep"

Benicia walked over to where Foggy, Karen, and Zoe were, "Why are you all standing out here?"
Foggy rubbed his nose, "We were waiting for you."
"You didn't have to." Benicia mumbled while walking past them into the apartment building.
Foggy leaned over to Benicia, "I didn't want to be left alone with them as a third wheel anymore."
Benicia covered her mouth to hide her smile as she knocked on Mrs. Cardenas door. It was only opened for them as she turned into her apartment ranting in Spanish. She paused while stepping in with the others.
Zoe was rather startled by the state of disrepair, "Jesus..."
Mrs. Cardenas finally stopped to talk to them, "Senor Tully fix? Si?"
"No, not yet." Foggy answered as he looked around at the state of her apartment, "But uh... We-we're going to do what we can."
Benicia immediately turned her head to look at him, "I'm sorry, we are?"
"Tu?"
"Why not?" Foggy shrugged his shoulders, "My dad owned a hardware store for twelve forevers, picked up a few things. At least get the ball rolling."
"And your cousin's a drywall guy-" Zoe chimed in with a grin on her face, "Right?"
"That he is." Foggy started to look around, "And we had fished an electrician out of the drunk tank. Owes us a favor. We're gonna talk to your neighbors, too, okay, Mrs. Cardenas? We're gonna take care of you."
Mrs. Cardenas clasped her hands together as she approached each of them. She individually took their hands and kissed them as she repeated, "Gracias!"
Benicia tugged her hands away with a tight smile, "Is there anything you need fixed right now, Mrs. Cardenas?"
"Ah-" Mrs. Cardenas pointed at her sink, "No water."

Rhea had finally gotten a decent mask, it was not that good but it was better than the flimsy mask from earlier. She was currently dragging a purse thief by the scruff of his shirt to the edge of the precinct. She grunted before dropping him off and leaned down to his face, "I would think about getting a job if you want money so bad."
She grinned and went to move away when she heard a yell. Rhea ran around and caught sight of the masked man pushing him against the chain linked fence.
"Oi-" Rhea called while slowly walking over to him, "An officer? Seriously?"
He ignored Rhea and kept his focus on Blake, "Scream and that arm becomes your good one. We clear?"
"Jesus." Rhea didn't stop him, but she did look around to make sure that there were no others around, "What exactly are you doing?"
"I need answers. Stay out of it." He let go of Blake's mouth, "You killed that Russian in interrogation."
