"The time has come... for year-end bonus o'clock!"
The group sat around the triangular table in boredom as Brett and Reagan spoke. "Great news, guys. I know I can be a real cabal-buster sometimes. But the numbers are in, and we have finished this year's missions in record time!" The pair high-fived before Brett approached a cart full of boxes,
"So these gifts are from J.R to express his thanks." He explained and he and Reagan handed out the boxes.
"Ooh, what's it gonna be?" Gigi rubbed her hands together in anticipation, looking at Theodora excitedly, "A private island?"
"Please be the nuclear codes." Glenn begged as they all opened their boxes to reveal a bag.
"Tote bags? Again?" Andre threw the bag down angrily, "Son of a bitch!"
"I don't need a bag to carry shit." Myc exclaimed, "I got six fucking arms!"
"Wait. There could be a check inside of it or..." Brett stayed optimistic, reaching inside the bag to pull out a tinfoil hat, "a commemorative tinfoil hat!"
"That's just actual garbage!" Myc yelled, and everyone agreed, disgruntled.
Reagan and Brett exchanged a glance, before Reagan spoke, "Guys. Hey, guys. You know what? You're right. You do deserve more than tote bags. I'm taking this to J.R."
"Give it to him!"
"Yeah, girl!"
Reagan spent 10 minutes speaking to J.R, until they heard commotion going on in the main area so the group ventured out to find out what was going on. Reagan had a megaphone in hand, addressing the whole of Cognito Inc.
"What up, Deep State?" Reagan yelled, "Today I control you!" She then began to laugh manically, and the group exchanged a concerned glance,
"Well, this will go well." Myc grimaced as Reagan approached the group excitedly.
"I take it you got a promo-" Brett began, happy for his best friend, before she cut him off.
"I'm CEO bitches!" Reagan yelled almost ear-splittingly.
"Yay!" Theodora grinned, hugging her sister. "That's great, Reags!"
Reagan was glad to have her sister's and her friends' support, it made her feel like she was capable of running Cognito, which actually was a lot of pressure now that she thought about it.
"Cmon, we gotta celebrate!" Brett insisted, "McUltra's?" He glanced at the group for approval.
"Hell yeah." The group agreed.
Reagan walked with Brett and Theodora as they all made their way to McUltra's. "So, J.R's becoming a robe?" Theo asked.
"Yeah, crazy, right?" Reagan was talking quickly and excitedly, Theo was happy to see her like this even though it was slightly scary.
Reagan's high lasted the whole day, then they went home to celebrate with Rand who would most likely also be happy for her.
"Dad, I've got some good news and some good booze!" Reagan exclaimed as they entered. The house was dark, and someone was moving about in the shadows. "Ah! Intruder!"
Reagan sprang to action, pointing some device at the person to enclose them in a cage, "Ow! Ooh, Rea... Kiddo! Kiddo, it's me!" The person, who turned out to just be Rand, said.
"Whoa. Sorry, Dad." Reagan mumbled, flicking on the lights. Amused at the interaction, Theodora crossed the room and sank down onto the couch, resting her feet on the coffee table.
