After allowing himself some sleep William made his way to the kitchen, saying "hello" to whomever he passed. He was still in SWAT-style fatigues when he arrived. Quietly, he gathered food and ate. "Jason, where's your brother? We have planning and teching to do. Kerry, get Janice down here. Alice, Avery, listen up. We work today."

Alice snickers quietly, and once Avi isn't looking again, winks at Kerry in a playful manner. She smiles at Jason as he comes into the kitchen and says "Morning." She smirks at his complaint regarding Jane and Dmitri, but says quiet as she sips her tea. Once Will enters the room, the smirk disappears and she looks serious as she nods at him, getting ready for what will probably a long day ahead of her.

*Sierra does her best to stay out of the way, but grabs a plate and takes one of each of the baked items before retreating to the spot where the kitchen counter made a corner. back in up to that spot, she puts one hand on the counter and seems to hop without effort to settle there.
*she pulls pieces off the cheesy one and frowns at Jason's comments about 2 of the others. troubled she sets the plate to the side, suddenly no longer hungry and hands it to Kristien instead, and quietly slides to the floor once again before turning to the sink to soak the pans she used.
*removing the gloves and then the jacket, she rolls up the sleeves of the shirt to fill in the sink with hot water and soap. finishing off those ones, she turns to look at William and comments ' ... i think i have tough skin. Bubba would use me for a chew toy, and i thought it was just love nibbles ... he was .. just over a year then so it was his adult teeth. and ... i think i can be a radar and let you know who's a mutant and who isn't. guess thats it, enjoy the muffins. think i'll check my laundry now ... excuse me ... ' *she moves enough to head towards the door leading to the laundry room, while lowering the sleeves of the shirt.

Jason raised a brow at Alice and Kerry, but turns his attention to Will when spoken to," Got me, I just got up. Did he even stay here?"
Avi, his attention back to finishing his paper, interrupted. " Tyler said he'd be back around...," he glanced up at the clock, " about ten minutes ago. He left around dawn to go over to the firestation before running some errands." He glanced at Jason, " He said to thank you for the credit card."
Kerry got a sheepish look on his face. " Janie's not up yet. They, uh, had a long night."
Jason just scowled at Avi before rolling his eyes at Kerry, clearing his throat.
Before she could escape, Kristian hooked Sierra's arm. when she looked at him, he shook his head slightly. " Don't run away. See what the bossmon has to say first."

*the face goes a bit pale, then pinks a little before the eye contact breaks. Sierra nods while staring at the ground, and then moves so she can observe the others.
...o0( this is really hard. i just don't understand what they're doing half the time ... its really confusing )
*then she leans against Kristien and the glance she gives him says it all. i really hope you know what you asking then she looks to the others again and slides her free hand into the jacket pocket and waits. looking for all intents and purposes like someone that is about to head off to the office

Isamu sitting by Ashley says, "These vigils give me time for meditation. I am glad to see you awake. How do you feel Ashley?"

William nods his thanks to Sierra for the information. "Thank-you for letting me know about it." He says.
Turning to Jason, he says, "Well, you've just doomed your brother." He says. "Unless you remember who was prying around there, yesterday?" He continues, scowling. "But, it's nice to know you're both the same."
Turning to Avery, he says, in more calm tones, "I need a pair of pistols, a light assault rifle, a few clips for each, bullet-proof vests, the tracking beacons and some of the grenades."
"We'll let Tyler come back with his binge spending before we send you two out." He says to Jason.
To Kerry, he says, "I don't care if she spent the knight with God, Jesus and Joseph. Get her down here. This is a business, not some summer camp."
"Jason, you go monitor the police band, and inform me - only inform, no action - on any news reports pertaining to your brother."
Turning to Alice, Trevor and Sierra, he says, "What ideas have you had on uniforms?"

Alice shrugs at Will as she replies "I've thought about it a little, but the only things I could come up with are things I don't think would be good like having a uniform that's really flashy like yellow spandex." Alice grins, "In fact, spandex as a whole probably isn't a good idea." Thinking, Alice adds "And I might need something that can change with me if I change how tall I am to look like someone else. I've never designed a uniform before, so I'm not sure what else. It'd probably be a good idea to have pockets, so we can carry stuff around with us. What do you guys think?" Alice asks Trevor and Sierra.
(Isamu)
Ashley smiles weakly as she replies "I'm ok. Really tired, like I just got wrung through the washing machine at high speed. What happened?"

*the shoulders sag in relief at the fact she isn't made to feel bad for not knowing what she can do. as far as she knew, Bubba wasn't hurting her, and it tickled when he wanted to get rough. she never thought it was wrong, just that she was different, and would sleep with him when thunder storms happened.
*the next question directed her way has her stumped for a bit before looking at Alice for guidance in answering. then she stammers out ' .. uh .. well .. leather is tougher than fabric. uh .. and i could cut it so that inserts would stretch to fill in the gaps ... uh .. black leather is good, and dark goggles. everyone wears it, well all of us i mean .. and ... ' *she goes scarlet and blinks briefly* 'uhh ... motor .. the cross country gear has hard plastic shoulder pads and chest guards .. we can spray paint them .. uhh .. oh definitely the shin guards and boots. but you can't make them bigger .. maybe a bad idea there? .. what about .. oh say .. moccasins? .. oh thats getting really silly now .... ' *in her mind she can see how this is all coming together. and its getting a bit sillier ' ... its easier if i show you ... excuse me .. i did some drawings earlier .. just sketches, well doodles ... well that is .. oh jeez i'm blathering again .. sorry' *then she turns and flees the room to get the pictures she was trying to describe so poorly .. and there is one that has some color of red/orange/yellow flames for the gloves and the left leg, while the eyes are protected with tinted goggles and then Trevor's name and what he wants to be called with the Initial B on the right upper chest spot.
'i know how to sew if it helps, hey Jason? .. does your go fast speedy thing just work for moving? .. would it work for say .. sewing by hand? ... cause i don't have a leather industrial sewing machine, but i could see if one of my auntie might. she retired down this way, sorta .. she's got a houseboat thing on the swamp lands. says she liked the gators. they were honest ... ' *then going pale, she covers her mouth with the left hand to keep quiet*

" I am so glad to speak to you Ashley. I thought you were going to die. Thankfully Tyler healed you. " Isamu walks over and sits on the edge of the bed.
"Troll found us where we were staying. He attacked you while you were sedated. As I said, Tyler was able to help. Some of the others came and helped as well," he says as he reaches out and takes her hand. "Without them I do not know what would have happened. Troll is downstairs in a cell that this place has in the basement. Do you want me to get you anything?"

" Troll is here?" Ashley tensed a bit, but relaxed quickly. " Thanks, but I'm okay for now. You look like you could use a bite though." she waved towards the door . " Go get yourself some breakfast, I'll be fine."
Jason looked at Will with a shrug," How was supposed to know what Ty had planned? I didn't even know he stayed here last night." He grinned at Sierra's long winded question and nodded, " It should work, but you'll have to try it." When Will was slinging out dirctions, he sighed and rolled from the room," I'll be up in the war room then."
Hearing his name, Trevor was standing over Sierra's shoulder quickly to see the drawing again," I like it." He smiled before giving Will that ' kid in a candy store look', " Grampa, can I have one?"
Avi nodded and disappeared downstairs to the armory without question, and Kerry did the same, returning with an up but groggy Janie and Dimitri. She yawned before asking Will, " You wanted to see me?"
There came the deep throated blare of a horn from outside. Trev went to get the door, yelling loudly to the others," Ty's back. Cool, a Hummer!"
Anyone outside would see Ty pulling in with a Hummer H3T with a pair of Kawasaki sport bikes on back and pulling a tow bar with another Dodge Charger. He walked inside with a big grin, " Oh yeah, there's groceries in the back seat ."

"I am ok for now Ashley," he says.
"Do not worry about Troll. The cell he is in is designed for people with powers. If he did get out, there is a house full of powerful people he would have to go through to get here. You are safe. Are you sure you feel ok?"

*Sierra is unsure how totake the praise from Trevor, as Jason answersher long winded question. the worry is clear in the eyes that watch William's face and his impending answer. her mouth for once is now too dry to even form a single word.
*stepping back beside Kristien for the moral support he brings, she continues to wait. the eyes finally lower to stare at the floor along with the hand that was covering her mouth, then looks up and comments in astunned manner '... what's a Hummer? ...' showing once and for all, that while she looks like then, her background had her very isolated for protection, and she has a LOT to catch up on. most likely in all three categories; mentality, emotionally and physically

Alice follows Trevor outside, and looks suprprised as she looks at both of the vehicles. "Why did you buy 2 cars, Tyler?" she asks.
As she waits for a response, Alice then starts to bring the groceries into the house.
(Isamu)
Ashley smiles weakly. "I'm ok. I just need to get some rest." She gently shoos Isamu towards the door, "Now go and get yourself some breakfast. I'm not going anywhere."
(Sierra)
Kristian smiles gently as he replies "A hummer is a type of SUV - usually they're huge and go through gas like it's going out of style. Come on outside with me and we can see what model of Hummer he bought."

William listens to the plans and gets to thinking. "Sierra, the shoulder pad idea maybe not, but I like the idea of incorporating chest and shin guards. Maybe just a bullet-proof vest for the chest. But the shin guards are good." The old vet paused a second, reminding himself these aren't soldiers and standard field practices won't apply - they wouldn't be kneeling up and down to fire rifles. "I don't want the flames. Maybe highlights, like along seams. The darker the fabric, the better. How would you feel about in corporating this into a SWAT-style pants and overshirt? Also, remember, it has to be fairly universal-looking. No letters or special stylings to set us apart. We'll look different enough as it is. But you see us as a group, in a uniform, and I can assure you, they won't know to tell us apart."
When Kerry returns with Janice and Avery returns with the weapons and gear, William grins. "Ah, perfect. Janice, can you track them if we're mobile? Kerry, make sure Tyler comes to the war room right away. I don't care what he thinks is more important."
With a nod, he goes upstairs to the war room. "Jason, you're brother's back, which means you two will be let loose very soon. Get your suit and hurry back."
