Trina gets an invite to lunch and, thinking it’s the racoon asking, reluctantly goes. It turns out that Joe was the one who sent the invite which Trina is relieved. So Joe treats Trina to lunch and it seems the two have a slight attraction to one another.
Hans hears of McGrath’s escape and is not pleased. Tasha grows annoyed at him as she feels there was nothing that could be done, even if Hans was there, so he shouldn’t act like it was their fault. Hans apologizes after looking the cell over and Tasha accepts. She gives him a pass and invites him to the track for the next Saturday she’s to race so he can come down to the pit area to see her. He says he’ll be there.
Sypher wakes up slightly damp and confused as to where he is. Matrix just informs him that Sypher was in contact with water while in acoherent form and scattered some. Sypher’s annoyed at this and gets his systems completely in order then demands he and Matrix finish their mission after sending reports to Dark Kat. They go to the MBI where Matrix zaps into the power lines and Sypher asks Stormcrow who he needs to speak to in order to get a job there. He introduces himself as Silas Greypaw and Stormcrow takes him back to the offices where she gives him an application to fill out.
Fletch arrived to work all tired and out of it looking as he was out too late celebrating a victory for the Megakat University football team. Hans and Tasha tease him some as they’re glad to hear he’s not the stick in the mud they thought him to be. Sypher finishes his application as he listens to their conversation and Stormcrow takes it to Mark’s office for approval and all. He leaves after saying bye to the others and collects Matrix who he hopes found out better information than he did.
<JosephForge> ((LOL!))
<JosephForge> ::where be’s the Trina?::
<TrinaKorat> :she’s in her office, for sooth::
<JosephForge> ::Bwhahahahahaha!-ermyeah XD::

<JosephForge> ::mun dunno. not sure::
<SypherSK> ((So, how long has it been since Trix last drug Sy off for lunch? Ie: Can they possibly still be eating or do we need to say Trix decided they needed lunch, a visit to the park, a movie and a loooong detour around town?))
<TrinaKorat> ((::DIES!:: I think “Trix would go as far as doing that. XD))
<JosephForge> ((you might wanna have gone on a looooong detour XD))
<SypherSK> ((<Matrix> You don’t have to sulk like that. I thought the entire thing was hilarious. <Sypher> ::curled up inna corner of their jail cell:: <Matrix> Okay, look… The next time I try to drive without downloading instructions first I’ll take the officer’s sobriety test seriously. But, you gotta admit, that look on his face was great!))
<TrinaKorat> ((::SOOOOOOOOODEAD!!!::))
<JosephForge> <DeliveryKat>::will just say someone was there and showed him where Trina’s office is. heads that way and knocks on her door!::
<JosephForge> ((:SOOOOOOOODEAD!::))
<JosephForge> ((<Officer> Your eyes look glassy. have you been drinking? <Matrix> Your eyes look glazed. Have you been eating donuts?))

<JosephForge> ::nope. tis why this mun had the delivery kat bypass the front desk::
<TrinaKorat> ::stops typing, stands and goes open the door:: Yes?

<JosephForge> <DeliveryKat>::holds out half dozen roses:: Lt. Korat?
<SypherSK> ::regains consciousness slowly, trying to sort out why his thought processes are so scattered… finds he’s lying on a hard floor and… he’s soaking wet::
<TrinaKorat> ::staaaaaaaaare:: Oh… no… ::ears drooping::
<JosephForge> <DeliveryKat>::blinks:: You..aren’t Lt. Korat then?
<TrinaKorat> ::sighs, hand to face:: Yes, I am. Where do I sign?
<HansLynx> ::is at his desk! yeeeeeeeey!::
<JosephForge> <DeliveryKat>::hands her one of those lil tablets and a pen:: right at the bottom, ma’am.
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::will tell hans of the great escape!:: Hey Hans.
<TrinaKorat> :;takes and signs: Thankyou.
<HansLynx> Hello, Tasha. ::smiles and sits at his desk. yeah, LS didn’t tell me nuthin’ yesterday when I came in for duty:: Any word from that McGrath fellow? Or is that even his name?
<JosephForge> <DeliveryKat>::Hands her flowers:: You’re welcome. have a nice day! ::heads off and out of the bureau::
<JosephForge> <Flowers>::have card on them!::
<JosephForge> <Tasha>Yes it is. ANd he’s gone now. Escaped yesterday.
<TrinaKorat> ::nods, goes sets the flowers down the table and takes the card witha huff:: What does the little furball have to say now?
<JosephForge> <card> “From your secret admirer (no not the racoon either). Lunch today at the diner. 12:00 back booth on the left ”
<TrinaKorat> …….
<TrinaKorat> ::blinks, turns the card over and over, sees no name:: Wha…?
<HansLynx> ((::dying:: <Jenna and Coon>::partner up to snag the Korats!::))
* LadyStormcrow has quit IRC (Quit: Oops. This machine just fell asleep)
<HansLynx> WHAT?! ::stands now::
<JosephForge> ((::DIIIIES!::))
<TrinaKorat> ((DEAD!!))
<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))
<JosephForge> <Tasha> yep. Just disappeared. We interogated him, got some really odd answers out of him, and then he vanished right before Lt. Lyons’ eyes.
* LadyStormcrow has joined #mbi_sk
<JosephForge> ((WB!))
* TrinaKorat sets mode: +o LadyStormcrow
<SypherSK> ::looks up at the ceiling blearily, mind scrabbling to pull together memory fragments::
<LadyStormcrow> ((Here is I! Sorry it was so long.))
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> ::looks down at him:: Oh! You’re alive! Good to see!
<HansLynx> <Dark Kat>::is angry that Sypher and Matrix haven’t reported to him yet btw XD::
<SypherSK> What….?
<TrinaKorat> ::checks her watch, sees it’s almost noon, chews on her lower lip debating, then grabs her jacket and locks her office::
<LadyStormcrow> ::as mun reads, okay . . . can say she’s late getting in for some reason?::
<JosephForge> ((<glitch>::now blames Matrix and Syper for her glitches. DK was mad while working on her thanks to them::))
<LadyStormcrow> ::um, or not. Can say she went back to do some filing, or something or other, and had someone else cover the desk for just a moment?::
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> Thought you popped or something back there.
* LadyStormcrow is now known as StormcrowMerle
<JosephForge> ::its up to you, LS. she’s your chara::
<HansLynx> Wasn’t that device of his removed to make him invisible?
<TrinaKorat> ((::DEAD!!::))
<JosephForge> Yeah it was. ::Shakes head:: He’s an odd fellow. claimed he was from the future.
<StormcrowMerle> ::just trying to figure what’s the most plausible for everyone. Okay, finishes whatever she was doing in the back, and returns to the front desk forsooth!::
<JosephForge> ((^Tasha))
<SypherSK> Popped? ::thoughts turn to his wet condition, slowly realizes:: I was acoherent, wasn’t I? ::well, that explains a lot, has never been doused while acoherent but his programming strongly warns against it::
<TrinaKorat> Yeah… you… sorta chased after me when I went through a sprinkler or something.
<TrinaKorat> ((Matrix))
<HansLynx> Well wait wait… how did he just VANISH? ::is ticked about this. McGrath was a good arrest for him!::
<StormcrowMerle> ::thanks whoever was there and retakes her seat::
<SypherSK> Why would you…? Why did I…? ::sits up, holding his head::
<JosephForge> <Tasha> I don’t know! He just did! Lyons said one moment he was there and the next he wasn’t. He just vanished. He was actually talking to her just before he vanished so its not like she wasn’t looking at him.
<JosephForge> <Booth>::someone is there! waiting on the Trina::
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> I sorta told you to “live a little”. ::shrug::
<TrinaKorat> ::enters the diner, looks around::
<JosephForge> ::is there! bwhahahahaha! no is definitly not the coon. smiles and waves a bit for her to see and come on over::
<TrinaKorat> ::blink…blinkblinkblnks::
<JosephForge> ::don’t pass out on me dear XD::
<HansLynx> ::huffs. sits back down in his seat:: Just wonderful! Was his cell inspected?
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::rolls eyes:: Yes…Myself and Lyons both did. We can’t figure out how he got out.
<HansLynx> ((<Matrix> I told you to live a little but you almost died. You don’t listen very well, do you.))
<TrinaKorat> ((::DEAD::))
<TrinaKorat> Forge….?
<TrinaKorat> ::as she goes there::
<JosephForge> ((::DIIIES!::))
<SypherSK> ::eyes narrow, is sooo not accepting that explanation… pauses as his mental “systems” slowly get back online:: It has been exactly one day and thirteen hours since we were given our assignment. ::sounds vaguely appalled:: Have you submitted a report to Dark Kat?
<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::)
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> Huh? We were supposed to?
<JosephForge> ::stands. smiles a bit:: Yeah. Its me.
<StormcrowMerle> ::sits and crosses her arms over to lean on them. Presumably the news of Grath’s escape has gotten around?::
<TrinaKorat> You sent me those flowers?
<SypherSK> Of course we were supposed to. It is standard proceduer.
<SypherSK> ((procedure even))
<JosephForge> ::nods:: I did. I hope it didn’t cause any problems.
<HansLynx> Well there HAD to be an escape route or some strange “futuristic” device he used or something.
<TrinaKorat> Other than I thought it was that ‘coon again… ::grins::
<JosephForge> <Tasha> well if you don’t believe me then you walk your tail down there and look for yourself!
<SypherSK> ((<Hans> Did it look like he… I don’t know… “beamed out”? <Tasha> ::brow arch:: <Hans> I’m serious here!))
<JosephForge> ((::DIIES!::))
<HansLynx> ((<Matrix> I sent over some Mega Tacos for his lardness last night to buy us some time. I wrote “plan still under construction” on one of the wrappers. does that count? <Sypher>::slaps forehead::))
<HansLynx> ((::dead::))
<SypherSK> ((::DEAD tacos!::))
<JosephForge> ::smirks:: Thats why I told them to put on there that it wasn’t. If you thought it was I knew you wouldn’t come here.
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))
<JosephForge> ((::SOOOODEAD!::))
<TrinaKorat> ::chuckles:: Well, I appreciate the gesture.
<TrinaKorat> ((:DEADDEAD!!:))
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> Oohhh… W’oops.
<HansLynx> Well fine, I will. ::stands up and turns on heel. makes way to the cells!:;
<JosephForge> ::motions to the seat across from where he was sitting:: Can I buy you lunch?
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::shakes her head. stubborn toms::
<SypherSK> ::stares at him, tries to remember what happened so he can submit a proper report::
<StormcrowMerle> ::leans back in her chair a bit, arms still folded. Glances around a little nervously, humming under her breath::
<TrinaKorat> :smiles, sits:: Sure.
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> Oh well. ::stands:: So you’ve put yourself back together?
<JosephForge> ::sits. reaches down into seat beside him and hands her a single rose:: I think that bouquet is missing a rose. This should make you six.
<SypherSK> I am still somewhat confused as to what *exactly* transpired. ((<Matrix> You wet. You go boom. Me fix. Mostly.))
<HansLynx> ::goes and of course will find nothing else. did they find the ash on the cot from that holographic device?:;
<TrinaKorat> ::blushes horribly:: Joe…
<TrinaKorat> ((:DEAD!!!::))
<HansLynx> ((LOL! ))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))
<JosephForge> ((::DIIIES!::))
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> You get big bad sicky sicky. Me fix. Me make big bad sicky sicky go away. End of story.
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::didn’t unless Lyons did::
<JosephForge> ::Smiles a bit:: What? Don’t you like roses?
<SypherSK> ::okay, normally expressionless face now looks completely pole-axed… then it slowly shifts to a look of, “You’re crazy. Stay back”::
<HansLynx> <Josie>::mun remembers her seeing it lol maybe she did and put in her report and just figured Tasha saw it too or somesuch::
<HansLynx> ::notes cell’s been cleaned anywho::
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::sounds good!::
<TrinaKorat> I do… I… Thanks. ::takes::
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> So don’t we have a mission to do?
<StormcrowMerle> ::uh-oh::
<SypherSK> ::brow arch::
<HansLynx> ::returns to the deskroom some time later. sits in his seat and head goes to desk::
<JosephForge> You’re welcome. I figured it’d be a nice treat before you leave for the holidays.
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::leaned back in her chair. smirks:: Told you it was clean.
<TrinaKorat> ::rose to nose, smiles::
<JosephForge> <Waitress>::comes over:: What can I get you to drink?
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> Or should I drag you through a sprinkler again?
<TrinaKorat> A skim milk, please.
<SypherSK> Do not touch me. ::mentally sends a report to Dark Kat’s computer::
<JosephForge> Whole milk. <Waitress>::nods and heads off to get the drinks!:: <Joe> So..when you guys leaving?
<HansLynx> Yeah you did. ::says with nose at the desk XD::
<HansLynx> <Dark Kat>::alerted when computer beepies at him:: About time. ::checks the report::
<JosephForge> <Tasha> You toms really should learn to listen.
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> Oh, alright. ::sends a mental report as well – “TACOS ARE MADE OF MEAT! ISN’T THAT AMAZING?! :D”::
<TrinaKorat> Mid month.
<JosephForge> ((::DIIES MATRIX!::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((*DEAD*))
<SypherSK> <Sypher’s Report> ::is very brief and to the point, notes that he was incapacitated due to having his molecules scattered by water (there is a brief parenthetical note that he’ll describe the after effects for further study in detail later), will now attempt to proceed with the plan… adds that his counterpart Matrix seems dangerously unstable::
<JosephForge> ::nods:: well, glad we got this in before then
<SypherSK> ((::DEAD::))
<TrinaKorat> Hmm? ::curious look::
<HansLynx> ::sits up:: Pardon?
<HansLynx> <Dark Kat>::reads through Sypher’s report, frowning. then Matrix’s:: NO kidding… ::to the “unstable” part of Sypher’s as this proves it XD::
<HansLynx> ((‘doh brb! kiddo’s up))
<TrinaKorat> ((WB!))
<JosephForge> This. Me getting you out to lunch. ::smirks::
<JosephForge> ((O_o sagey? Who you welcoming back?))
<StormcrowMerle> ((Okay.))
<SypherSK> ::hasn’t seen Matrix’ report… fortunately for Matrix, is out of sorts enough himself at the moment, he might throttle him::
<TrinaKorat> ((::beats her head:: Meant, “Okies!” Yes, ‘Trix’s mun is unstable too. Hush. XD))
<JosephForge> <Tasha> ::smirks:: I saaaaid. You tooooms shoooould leeeaaaaaarn toooo liiiiisteeeen.
<SypherSK> ((That’s not news.))
<TrinaKorat> ::blushes horribly again;:
<JosephForge> ((LOL! ::hugluvs Sagey::))
<JosephForge> <Waitres>::returns with drinks! sets them in front of them:: What can I get you two to eat?
<StormcrowMerle> ((Yes, we must *all* hugluv Sagey!))
<TrinaKorat> ((::dies, hugs all::))
<TrinaKorat> Um… I’ll have a tuna melt and fries.
<TrinaKorat> ((BRB))
<JosephForge> ((okies!))
<JosephForge> The same for me. <Waitress>::nods and goes to put in the order!:
<TrinaKorat> ::sips her milk:: WEll, thanks for the gesture.
<JosephForge> ((WB!))
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> What’s with the look?
<JosephForge> ::smiles:: No problem. Its nothing fancy but I figured it’d work since I don’t know where you live to send flowers there or anything.
<TrinaKorat> ::grins at him now:: I’ll have to invite you over for dinner sometime.
<JosephForge> I’d like that.
<SypherSK> ::stands up:: It is nothing.
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> … You looked like you were about draw and quarter me and serve me onna silver platter to Dark Kat.
<TrinaKorat> Well, what do you usually have for dinner?
<JosephForge> Hot dogs or whatever is leftover that sis fixes. ::grins::
<TrinaKorat> ::laughs:: Okay. No hot dogs, then.
<JosephForge> I’m not much of a cook. She fixes a lot of chicken and tries to make sure some is leftover for me to heat up.
<SypherSK> I was thinking no such thing. ::wasn’t, but it sounds awful tempting::
<StormcrowMerle> ::draws a design on the desktop with a clawtip::
<TrinaKorat> <Matirx> Oh, I suppose.
<SypherSK> Now, let us return to our mission.
<TrinaKorat> OKay. No hot dogs, or chicken.
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> :yawns loudly::
<JosephForge> ::grins:: Sounds wonderful then. <Waitress>::brings them their meals then goes!::
<SypherSK> NOW.
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> Oh, alright. ::merges acoherent:
<TrinaKorat> ::grins back, thanks waitress and munches onna fry::
<JosephForge> You still gotta let me hear you play too, sometime.
<HansLynx> ((backerz))
<JosephForge> ((WB!))
<TrinaKorat> ((WB!))
<StormcrowMerle> ((wb!))
<TrinaKorat> ::nearly chokes:: Um… right.
<HansLynx> ((ty! diaperchange ‘n bottle and he’s back out. XD ::thinks he just had a bad dream or somethin’::))
<JosephForge> ::smiles a bit:: surely if you can play before thousands of kats you can play before just me.
<JosephForge> ((maww poor baby))
<TrinaKorat> ((Maw!)
<JosephForge> <Tasha> ::smirks:: I saaaaid. You tooooms shoooould leeeaaaaaarn toooo liiiiisteeeen. ::repost for Annumun::
<HansLynx> I listen quite well thank you. You she-kats should learn to keep a prisoner better. ::smirks and folds his arms::
<TrinaKorat> Don’t remind me. ::smiles back::
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::blinks frowns. growls a bit:: I’d like to have seen YOU keep him in that cell when he just vanishes into thin air!
<SypherSK> ::goes acoherent as well, then pauses:: We still need proper identities.
<JosephForge> ::chuckles:: Okay I won’t. Don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll be fine.
<TrinaKorat> ::grins:: I’ll play. I promise.
<HansLynx> Well shame I wasn’t there to try and show you.
<SypherSK> ((<Matrix> I got it all covered. I’m Tweedledee. You’re Tweedledum.))
<TrinaKorat> ((DEAD!))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))
<HansLynx> ((::dies!::))
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> Don’t tell me we’ve gotta redo our looks!
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::rolls eyes:: Oh please…you toms think you are so much better than a she-kat. Wake up and realize that we are just as capable as you are of doing a job.
<JosephForge> Good. I look foreward to it.
<HansLynx> ::laughs:: Goodness, Tasha. I’m not some cheauvanist (sp? O_o;) pig you know.
<SypherSK> ::checks, finds he’s still in his new look:: I believe our appearance is fine. Let us work on the finer details. ::grabs Matrix and zips off into the powerlines::
<TrinaKorat> ::blushes, munches on her tuna melt::
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> ::HUFF, is drug:
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::crosses arms:: well you sure are acting like it.
<JosephForge> ::munches as well!::
<StormcrowMerle> ::traces with her claws some more, glancing around now and then::
<TrinaKorat> ::is de’ happy. Is actually amused that she’s been blushing so much::
<HansLynx> My apologies. I’ll remember that next time so I don’t mistakenly hold open a door for you. You’re capable of opening the door for yourself after all. ::grinning::
<JosephForge> ::lol! poor Trina. XD sips his soda:: I hope this don’t cause any issues at work. Thats why I asked you to meet me here. I didn’t wanna hear if from my sis either.
<TrinaKorat> That’s a good thing. I didn’t wanna hear it from Jason or Mark either.
<JosephForge> <Tasha> oh you…::wads up some paper and throws at him:: Thats not what I meant! you just acted like because we were she-kats that we weren’t capable of keeping McGrath prisoner.
* Kutlass has joined #mbi_sk
<JosephForge> ::chuckles:: Yeah. Last thing I need is my superior officers breathing down my neck.
<JosephForge> ((hey Kutlass!))
<StormcrowMerle> ((Lo!))
<HansLynx> ((hey kutlass!))
* HansLynx sets mode: +o Kutlass
<TrinaKorat> ((Heys!))
<SypherSK> ((Hey!))
<TrinaKorat> ::smiels:: I wouldn’t worry about it.
<Kutlass> ((Y’ello, all! I’m super late, but I figured I’d go ahead and drop by anyways.))
<StormcrowMerle> ((Is fine.))
<HansLynx> ::laughs and is hit with the paperwad:: Well I’m sorry but toms are physically stronger than she-kats, in most cases. Doesn’t mean we’re better. ::shrugs::
<JosephForge> I do. Its my job thats on the line if I make them mad for some reason. ::Smirks::
<JosephForge> <Tasha> yes well..I don’t think any amount of strength could have stopped him. He just vanished from what Lyons told me.
<HansLynx> ((just jump on in! LS is at her desk up front, Tasha ‘n Hans in deskroom, and Sy ‘n Trix heading to MBI. Trina ‘n Joe are out having lunch))
<TrinaKorat> What say we make this off record?
* Kutlass is now known as FletchRyder
<JosephForge> Sounds good to me.
<TrinaKorat> :extends a hand: Deal, then.
<SypherSK> ::so, pops out near the MBI not too much later, is dressed plainly and is fairly confident they have all their details worked out::
<JosephForge> ::shakes. grins:: deal. And what of our next dinner? off the record too?
<TrinaKorat> ::nods:: Off the record.
<JosephForge> Excellent. How long you think you’ll keep this secret though?
<HansLynx> No one can just “vanish”. Unless what, he a magician or something? Or maybe he was beamed back to the future and we won’t have to deal with him anymore?
<JosephForge> <Tasha>::smirks:: We ain’t that lucky. Trust me.
<HansLynx> Was he really going on about the future? Did you ask about that badge and all?
<HansLynx> ((<Ann> I have to promise Jase our dinners are off the record too. at least our conversations. ::pouty::))
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> This it?
<TrinaKorat> ((::DEAD!!::))
<SypherSK> Yes.
<JosephForge> ((::DIIES!::))
<SypherSK> ::heads inside::
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))
<TrinaKorat> From Jason? I give myself a day.
<StormcrowMerle> ::looks up quickly as someone enters::
<JosephForge> <Tasha> I didn’t ask. Captain Korat did the questioning. he was really going on about the future though. ::tells him what all McGrath was saying::
<JosephForge> ::smirks:: so I got a day to live without torture?
<TrinaKorat> ::smiles:: Wanna go for a walk after lunch?
<StormcrowMerle> Welcome to the Megakat Bureau of Investigation, sir.
<TrinaKorat> ::goes after him, then steps back:: <I’m gonna check through the cables.>
<TrinaKorat> ((Matrix))
<HansLynx> ::listens to it all and sighs. rubs his forehead:: What a mess… this guy has to be insane… though his tech is pretty advanced.
<SypherSK> <For what?>
<TrinaKorat> <Matrix> <See if there are any security holes>
<JosephForge> sure. ::finishes up lunch::
<JosephForge> <Tasha> Yeah it was. I haven’t ever seen that much stuff on one guy.
<TrinaKorat> ::finishes as well::
<TrinaKorat> ((And, NyQuill is gonna kick in soon. I better head to bed and get rid of this cold once adn for all))
<HansLynx> ((maww night Sagey!))
<StormcrowMerle> ((‘Tis fine. Goodnight, Sage!))
<JosephForge> ((maww nights!))
<TrinaKorat> ((Night all!))
<FletchRyder> ((Goodnights, Sagems! Hope that NyQuill helps!))
<SypherSK> ::continues on and approaches the secretary/receptionist at the desk::
<SypherSK> ((G’nights, Sagers!))
<TrinaKorat> ((And, thanks!))

<StormcrowMerle> ::Thinks this looks like a fairly normal person, though considering those who tend to show up around here, that’s not saying much::

<SypherSK> Hello. I was hoping to apply for employment here.
<HansLynx> ((::DIES Glitch::))
<StormcrowMerle> ::blinks:: Um, okay. Name? ::trying to think of what to do with this::
<FletchRyder> ((lol))
<SypherSK> Silas Greypaw.

<TashaForge> ((::DIIIES!::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL!))
<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))
<FletchRyder> ((lol!))
<HansLynx> If this guy is really wanting to help us, which I think he is, I wish he’d stick around and TALK to us instead of acting like some nut.
<StormcrowMerle> Okay then, Mr. Greypaw. I’ll take you to the superiors. ::hopes that’s proper protocol, and gets up from the desk::
<TashaForge> I know. its rather annoying how he shows up then disappears without a trace. I wish he’d just give us some straight answers.
<SypherSK> ::nods and follows her::
<HansLynx> Without adding more questions.
<TashaForge> Indeed. ::sighs. rubs at her forehead:: He’s the thing that headaches are made of.
<StormcrowMerle> ::goes down the hall, beckoning quickly, and looks for the highest authority to be found::
<SypherSK> ((<Sypher> ::ends up left in an office with the raccoon, blinkblinks:: ))
<FletchRyder> ::comes up to the front desk and signs in, overhearing the exchange of conversation. was about to suggest he simply fill out a resume, but by the time he looks up, they’ve skedaddled. just rubs one of his eyes and heads back to the locker room to change::

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))
<TashaForge> ((LOL!))
<HansLynx> ((LOL!!))
<TashaForge> ::smiles:: Naww I’m fine. Thanks though.
<StormcrowMerle> ::goes to the offices of the Director and the Captain, but they is not there:: Okay . . . I guess we’ll have to go to one of the agents.
<HansLynx> No problem. I might have to open the bottle for you and then be accused of being a pig again. ::grins anew at her. teasing::
<HansLynx> ::likes to aggravate sometimes::
<TashaForge> ::laughs:: I’m sorry. I’ve just heard to many of those pigs in my lifetime and I’m very jumpy about it.
<HansLynx> Well I might be guilty of being a bit old fashioned in that sort of thinking.
<FletchRyder> ::changes into uniform and then procedes to the sink. splashes cold water onto his face for a moment or two. wipes it off with the handtowel and then shakes his head, awake now::
<TashaForge> Well I’m a firm believer that there’s a difference in just old fashioned being a gentleman, and being a pig.
<HansLynx> Let me know if I start oinking or get a curly tail. ::snickers::
<SypherSK> Alright….
<SypherSK> ::well, at least he’s getting a look around their building::
<FletchRyder> ::leaves the locker room and heads for his desk, adjusting his uniform some as he walks::
<StormcrowMerle> I’m sorry about this, Mr. Greypaw. ::heading to the deskroom to look for agents:: I’m only a trainee, and I’m not versed in the protocol for applicants. ::I can use big words!::
<TashaForge> ::laughs:: okay. I’ll let you know. Hey, there’s a race this saturday by the way. You said you wanted to come to one sometime.
<SypherSK> That is alright.
<HansLynx> ((<Sypher> I know a Protocol. Ever since she merged with Dark Kat she’s been rather “mean” as some of the others say. <Stormcrow> What? <Sypher> I said, the weather is quite nice wouldn’t you say? <Stormcrow> … ))
<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))
<TashaForge> ((::DIIIES!::))
<HansLynx> Is that an invitation?
<StormcrowMerle> ::wonders a bit at his very proper language::
<StormcrowMerle> ((*dies*))
<StormcrowMerle> ::goes into the deskroom::
<TashaForge> I guess so. ::sits back some and digs in the top drawer of her desk. produces a pass and tosses it to him:: Unless you don’t wanna come. If you do that’ll get you in the gates, and into the work areas where I’ll be at.
<HansLynx> ::catches it:: No I do. ::smiles:: And I’ll be sure to be there. ::turns and looks at the two coming into the office::
<TashaForge> I’ll be watching for you. ::looks that way as well::
<StormcrowMerle> Hello, everyone. ::puts on a smile::
<SypherSK> ::looks around her curiously::
<TashaForge> Hey, Miss Merle. Who’s this?
<StormcrowMerle> This, ::moves an arm around to indicate Sypher:: is Silas Greypaw; he’s looking to apply here.
<HansLynx> Hey Miss Merle. ::stands:: And nice to meet you, Greypaw. I’m Agent Lynx. ::offers hand for a shake::
<SypherSK> ::shakes his hand:: It is a pleasure to meet you.
<TashaForge> ::Stands as well. offers hers after Hans and Sy are done shaking:: And I’m Agent Forge.
<FletchRyder> ::enters the deskroom, right as everyone’s shaking paws. stops for a moment to look and see who the new face is::
<HansLynx> I’m sure the Catpain or someone has the applications.
<HansLynx> ((er Captain^))
<TashaForge> ((<Tasha>::shrugs::meh…Captain, Catpain…I can see that…he can be a pain sometimes))
<SypherSK> ((::snorks!::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))
<FletchRyder> ((lol!))
<SypherSK> ::shakes Tasha’s hand too:: It is good to meet you as well.
<HansLynx> ((LOL!))
<TashaForge> ::smiles then nods to what Hans said:: yeah. There should be some around her somewhere. I’d just have him fill one out then put it in the Director’s or Captain’s box.
<HansLynx> ::nods at that then smiles at Fletch:: Hey Ryder. Just in time to meet a prospective agent.
<StormcrowMerle> ::nods:: Well, the Captain isn’t in right now, but I’ll see if I can get one from the office.
<HansLynx> ::prospective… is that right? mun is off her nut tonight::
<StormcrowMerle> ::Yes it is;:
<TashaForge> ::yep! Thats right! and when is the mun NOT off her nut? XD::
<SypherSK> ::nods to Stormcrow::
<FletchRyder> I see. ::steps up to the group:: Agent Fletch Ryder. ::nods at Sypher::
<HansLynx> ::umm… well she can usually spell and type better XD::
<HansLynx> ::at least this time of night -g-::
<SypherSK> Pleased to meet you. ::to Fletch:: I am Silas Greypaw.
<StormcrowMerle> ((::just looked out the window:: Ye gods, it’s *snowing*!))
<TashaForge> ((yikes!))
<FletchRyder> So I heard. ::offers him a small smile:: Good luck in the application process.
<HansLynx> ((EW!))
<SypherSK> Oh. Thanks.
<StormcrowMerle> ((I’d say there’s at least half an inch out there already.))
<FletchRyder> ((Quick! Funnel it my way! I didn’t haul my sled all the way up here to be denied of the white stuff now!))
<HansLynx> ((::hopes the sprinkling of rain we’re getting stays rain :P::))
<TashaForge> ((lol!))
<HansLynx> ((LOL!))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL, I would if I could!))
<TashaForge> ((its too dang hot here. still around 70 degrees by my judgement))
<FletchRyder> ((I’ll get my vaccum and be right up! XD))
<StormcrowMerle> Well, would you like to stay here and talk while I go get an application form?
<HansLynx> Hmm… let me check the file cabinent here to see if there’s some in here. ::does so!::
<HansLynx> ((mmmm 70 degreeees… ::jealous::))
<StormcrowMerle> ::never mind then::
<TashaForge> ((oh the cold front is coming. it’ll be here by morning I’m sure))
<SypherSK> ((::is jealous of the snow::))
<TashaForge> You okay, Ryder? You look a little..tired.
<FletchRyder> ((Penguins are already making themselves cozy outside our dorms… It’s bound to be a sign, right?))
<StormcrowMerle> ((Not really; what kind of penguins?))
<SypherSK> ::tries to appear to be just waiting patiently… while studying everything::
<FletchRyder> Huh? ::as he stifles a yawn, looks to Tasha, shaking his head:: What do you mean?
<TashaForge> Um…oh just the fact that you are yawning and look like you spent the whole night not sleeping is all.
<StormcrowMerle> ((Some of those can live in near-tropical areas. It’s when polar bears show up that you should *really* be worried.))
<HansLynx> ::lol is sorry XD:: Nope, not seeing any in here. Better go and get one, Merle.
<FletchRyder> ((Emperor Penguins. I keep tripping over their scepters on my way to being late for class. Those birds are vicious.))
<StormcrowMerle> ::it’s okay:: All right then. I’ll be right back. ::trots out to retrieve one from Mark or Jason’s office, whichever has them::
<StormcrowMerle> ((Ahhh. In that case, you should be really *REALLY* worried.))
<HansLynx> ((::dies!::))
<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))
<FletchRyder> ((<LS> Locked? ::jiggling handle:: <Raccoon> ::comes by, tries the door himself, then steps back and roundhouse kicks it, flinging the door open. scampers in, puts a virus on Jase’s computer and then steals his secret stash of donuts before leaving:: <LS> …))
<HansLynx> ((::DIIES::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((*DIES*))
<SypherSK> ((::SOOOOOOOOOOODEAD Raccoon!:: ))
<TashaForge> ((::snorts:: <Kutlass>::peeks out door of dorm:: Okay..the coast is clear. <Dormmates>::all make a mad dash for their classes!:: <Emperor Penguin> NowNOWNOWNOW! <Penguins>::start chasing poor students across the campus, biting, flinging snowballs, and beaing them with their scepters.:: <Kutlass>::snickers. sneaks out the back way::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((*SOOOOODEAD*))
<TashaForge> ((::DIIES!))
<SypherSK> ((::DEADDEAD!::))
<HansLynx> ((::DIES!::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((Just wait until the babies come out: they’ll cut you to pieces.))
<FletchRyder> ((LOL!! <Kutlass> ::sneaks out the back, and is promptly eaten by a polar bear:: Well.. this sucks. ::from inside its stomach:: <Polar Bear> ::picking teeth with a sceptor::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL!!))
<TashaForge> ((::DIIES!::))
<FletchRyder> Oh. It shows that much? ::shaking his head as another yawn assails him::
<SypherSK> ((::SOOOOOOOOOOODEAD!::))
<HansLynx> ((::DEAD!::))
<SypherSK> ::waits on LS, content to let the agents talk among themselves::
<HansLynx> ::turns and leans against the file cabinent:: Yeah you do look a bit out of it. There a late game at Megakat U or something?
<StormcrowMerle> ::presumably is able to find an application form, and returns sooner or later::
<SypherSK> ((<LS> ::just has to sign away her firstborn to the Raccoon to get it::))
<TashaForge> ((::DIES!::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL!))
<HansLynx> ((::busts up!::))
<FletchRyder> ((lol!))
<FletchRyder> Something like that. ::rubbing his eye again:: I went to their game against Pawlorado last night, went out afterwards, and.. got back in about two hours ago.
<HansLynx> ::laughs now and pushes off the cabinent:: What’s that? YOU were out LATE? There wasn’t any drinking involved on your part was there? ::grinnning, nudges Fletch inna side with an elbow::
<HansLynx> That’d be bad after all.
<SypherSK> ::thanks LS once she brings the application and finds a table to quietly fill it out at::
<TashaForge> ::laughing now:: Uh huh..now who’s the bad kat hmm? ::smirks:: And here I thought I was the only one that did stuff like that.
<StormcrowMerle> ::takes a seat too, just to hang out with the group and listen. Normally is fine with sitting way up at the front, but sometimes feels cut off, though thinks that’s been a bit of a good thing recently::
<FletchRyder> Oh, shut it off, Lynx. ::pushing his elbow away with a small grin:: I’m a big boy. I had a few, but most of the night was spent trying to keep my buddies away from the Pawlorado fans.
<HansLynx> Ha! I knew you had a bit of a party guy in you, Ryder. ::snickers::
<TashaForge> We know the truth now. Yep…I knew we couldn’t be the only ones that partied.
<SypherSK> ::shoulda been here earlier when he might could have heard talk of McG::
<HansLynx> ((<Sypher>::reports to DK:: The agents like to quote “get drunk and get loud” often. That will be the proper time to strike.))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))
<FletchRyder> Yeah, yeah. Big deal. This is nothing compared to- uh, well, hey, we better stop yammering and get to work. Captain walks in on us and we’ll be confined to our desk for a month. ::deciding against talking of ye’ younger days::
<FletchRyder> ((lol))
<StormcrowMerle> I don’t think the Captain’s in right now, but that still sounds good. Is there anything else we can help you with, Mr. Greypaw?
<TashaForge> Nononono! Wait! What were you gonna say, Ryder? ::grins:: Come on..fess up!
<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))
<TashaForge> ((LOL!!))
<SypherSK> ::offers her the form:: I believe that should be everything. If you could just give this to your superiors.
<FletchRyder> ((<Sypher> Yes. Could you all please list all your weaknesses, fears, and physical/emotional impediments in alphabetical order starting from most recently hired agents to older ones? <Others> … More paperwork?! Get outta’ here! ::throw him out::))
<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))
<HansLynx> ::smirks at Ryder now, looks to Sypher:: Don’t worry, Merle here makes one great secretary/receptionist/fileperson.
<HansLynx> ((::DIES!::))
<TashaForge> ((::DIIES!::))
<StormcrowMerle> ::takes the form, then to Hans:: Uh, thank you. ::embarrassed smile::
<SypherSK> ((::SOOOOOODEAD::))
<FletchRyder> ::tries to disregard Tasha:: We’ll get it to the right kats. Thanks for stopping by, Mr. Greypaw.
<SypherSK> Thank you.
<TashaForge> ::smiles at Sy:: Yes nice to meet you, Mr. Greypaw. ::will leave Ryder alone..for now XD::
<StormcrowMerle> I’ll take this to the Director’s office. ::goes to do that::
<HansLynx> Hope to see you around soon, Greypaw.
<SypherSK> It was a pleasure to meet all of you as well. ::goes to head on out, hopes maybe Matrix found more than he did… more useful material rather than silly nonsense::
<HansLynx> ::it’s not silly! this is important stuff here! well okay not really but XD::
<FletchRyder> Now, if you will all excuse me… ::turns silently as Sy leaves and heads for his desk::
<HansLynx> Not so fast Ryder. ::says as Sy leaves and Fletch goes to sit at his desk::
<TashaForge> ::smirks:: yeah..you were about to tell us a story I do believe.
<StormcrowMerle> ::drops the form off in Mark’s office in the appropriate slot, then returns to the front desk::
<SypherSK> ::actually, was thinking of Matrix’ usual brand of information… like tacos having meat… which is somewhat less useful even than agent chatter::
<FletchRyder> Sorry, you two, but I’m on the clock. Wouldn’t be professional. ::smirks, giving a small salute as he retreats::
<HansLynx> ((LOL!!))
<FletchRyder> ((lol!))
<HansLynx> You got some paperwork?
<SypherSK> ((And, I think I better hit the hay. Night, guys!))
<FletchRyder> ((Goodnights, Kris!))
<TashaForge> ((nights!))
<StormcrowMerle> ((Goodnight, Kris!))
<SypherSK> ((Nights, all!))
* SypherSK has quit IRC (Quit: You’re not weird and neither am I. We’re just gifted and people are jealous.)
<FletchRyder> Most likely than not. ::having made it to his desk, plops down with a sigh::
<TashaForge> myeh..just leave him be. He ain’t gonna fess up.
<FletchRyder> ::smiles to himself, another battle won::
<TashaForge> ((::pokes at Annu. wonders if she got booted during her lil timeout thing::))
<HansLynx> ((sorry ’bout that! ::went to get a soda and made sure hubby didn’t fall asleep downstairs lol::))
<TashaForge> ((LOL! well at least my pokes worked!))
<StormcrowMerle> ((Is okay))
<HansLynx> ((LOL!))
<HansLynx> Don’t know why. No paperwork means free time. ::oh ho! so you think::
<TashaForge> Yeah really. We could all go for donuts and coffee in the breakroom.
<HansLynx> You need some coffee anyway, don’t you, Ryder?
<TashaForge> yeah..coffee wakes up everyone.
<FletchRyder> I don’t much like coffee, but thank you anyway.
<TashaForge> okay….soda? a dunk in a nice cold tub of water?
<HansLynx> ::laughs::
<FletchRyder> ::chuckles a bit:: I’ll look into the latter when I go on break.
<HansLynx> So you’ll tell us a story now?
<TashaForge> Yeah come on. WE wanna hear this story. WHats so bad about it? I’m sure me or Hans here one have done something worse.
<FletchRyder> Um.. no. Paw dang, next thing you’ll be wanting is for me to tuck you in at night.
<HansLynx> ::snorks at that:: I’m a big boy now, I haven’t been tucked in since I was a kitten. But I do enjoy a good tale of intrest.
<FletchRyder> Maybe when you’re a bit older. ::chuckling, shakes his head and opens his desk, pulling out a pen, and plops down a file from a stack on the corner of his desk in front of him::
<TashaForge> ::laughs:: Hey, at least it’d be a change from the snoring of my brother.
<HansLynx> Where is Joe anyway?
<FletchRyder> ((And now, I must make with the sleep.))
<HansLynx> ((maw night Kutlass!))
<StormcrowMerle> ((Goodnight, Kutlass!))
<FletchRyder> ((Goodnight all yous! Have a good one!))
* FletchRyder has quit IRC (Quit: )
<TashaForge> ::blinks. looks around a bit:: he was here earlier. I have no clue where he’s gone off to now.
<HansLynx> Patrol maybe?
<TashaForge> Maybe so. ::shrugs:: I’m not his keeper.
<HansLynx> Ah. ::nods at that::
