"Okay, here you go, kid." Seeing him throw the water bottle to me, I catch it with both hands, though before opening it to take a long and desired sip I stop to say "thank you, I appreciate this" he gives a "mmm" in acknowledgement and after addressing me he stares at his confused daughter. "What's wrong? Looks like you've seen a Beowulf dance." She didn't respond to her father, only pointed at me as I continued to drink from the water bottle. If I could, I'd give her a foxy grin, although she probably could see it peer out a little.
Slate gave off an inquisitive look, then decided to inquire further. "Uh, what did you do, Cyrus?"
I finally stopped drinking from the bottle, leaving a little less than half left, and spoke to the burly man. "Told her how I got here. I guess my answer left her confused. Don't really blame Carmine, wanna talk about this in your office... let's wait for your wife she said she went to go grab some stuff" he nodded and right in line Canary popped out of the doorway flanking my left. She had a simple clipboard and paper, with a fancy pencil. She looked at me and then to her family. Smiling all the way around, 'I swear that woman is a drop of sunshine' she then spoke.
"I was gonna say to wait until my husband came back, but everyone's here..." she paused and stared at her daughter, "you okay dear? Looks like you've seen a Beowulf dance." I began to chuckle and once I stopped my fit of laughter I proceeded to blurt out "Major déjà vu," Slate had a smile on his face and began to explain, "Apparently Cyrus told her how he got her, though I don't know what he said to cause this." Once the blonde got her answer, she nodded and finally got the point we were waiting for. "Okie dookie, well, I guess we can head to our office. Carmine, do you want to join us? It can be a good to learn how to question/interrogate someone"
Carmine finally recovered and quickly reposed with an over the top and enthusiastic "YES" 'I SWEAR TO THE LORD Please STOP IT WITH THE YELLING IN MY EARS' after wincing in pain AGAIN I furrow my brow and tried to kill Carmine with my mind. It didn't work, unfortunately, but I do know what does. Standing up to meet her at face level, I raised my arm in a flicking hand sign and flick said young lady square in the forehead. I flicked her hard enough that there came although quit but still audible *thud*. She winced and narrowed her eyes and placed her right hand over her forehead, rubbing it. "That hurt, what was that for?" I responded with a dull tone, "because you keep yelling in my ear." She was about to raise her voice again but stopped herself and began to remember every time she had done so. "Hpmh," after that. I motioned ahead to follow her parents. I decided to mess with the redhead and gave her a playful "After you" . She stuck her tongue out in a teasing way and walked after them.
I soon followed after the Flare family. After a few turns and flight of stairs, we stopped to see a long hallway. Slate pulls out his scroll phone thingy and on cue it unlocks the door. With a quick brush of the door, it opens. He steps inside and tells us to follow. Coming inside, the first thing I noticed was the furniture; it wasn't fancy or anything, but it felt cozy. There was a bookshelf with ...comic books 'neat' and framed photos of him and people he knows or is related to. His desk was neatly done, and everything seemed in order. "Your wife organized this, didn't she?" I stared at the man, waiting for him to answer my question. He froze and despite him having his back to me, I could tell his face was stuck.
I heard a fit of giggles from the two women in the room, and said wife gave me the answer. "Why yes, I did spruce up our shared office. I can't have my husband, and I look cluttered and disorganized." With a musing hum from me, I sat down on the chair facing his desk and both Mr. and Flare did the same on the other side while Mrs. Flare stood next to her husband. Seeing the light shade of red cover his face slowly fades, he finally got to why we were here. "Okay, now onto business."
