Avery writes down both names.
"A pleasure Mr. Cranston. If I may inquire, how long has your servant been residing here with you? Are either you, or your servant, familiar with the "Porthouse"?"
Avery uses telepathy to gleen Rex's surface thoughts.

(Lex and Viv)
Lex's sister pokes him in the belly with a rolling pin. "No jokes." She sighs, then looks at Vivian. "Are you here to work or just to write a poem on how work is done?"
(Rex, Yonette and Avery)
Rex, you can see that Avery is very persistent.
Yonette, you notice that Avery has turned his attention to you.
Avery, you get some idea of his surface thoughts (Rex, on your next post, you'll have to include what that will consist of).
(Dark Rider)
You manage to get a few hours sleep before awakening again as you hear the tractor backfire. Immediately you know that your grandfather is having a hard time with the thing - he's never gotten used to the tractor.

Matt does some quck ablutions, shaves, brushes his teeth, then he heads out.
He stands and watches his grandfather struggle with the tractor for a bit, before he walks closer.
"What is it this time?" he asks casually, looking at what his grandfather is working on.

" Relax," Lex said, rubbing his stomach after the poke. " It isn't our problem and won't really affect us much. Vivian and I just played good samaritans until the authorites showed up to take charge." He returned to what he had started after kicking his half empty bandage bag under the table.

Vivian looks a little hurt at Lex's sister's comment since she had always done the work asked of her and had never complained about it. Vivian wonders if anyone besides Lex would even try to see her as something other than a little spoiled rich girl and smiles in Lex's direction briefly before saying quietly. "I'm here to do work."

Yonette seems to shrink more and more into herself with more attention directed at her. she holds her things tighter to her body now. her eyes lift enough to lock onto Rex's ankle and will follow him once he moves, but for now? . . her back is solidly against the building behind her

[Original role came up 15, so running with that]
Nothing to his surface thoughts really, outside of some concern over the police officers.
"Yonette? Ever since I returned from abroad, about five years now. Porthouse? Never heard of such a place. Is it a new dining establishment?"

Nope, well hopefully it isn't TOO bad since he was taking it careful expecting that.  On the off chance he injures himself, he'll use his heal self spell to hopefully avoid too much traumatic injury (and get lucky to any spectators). If there isn't too much of a crowd and he has his wits about him he'll try Fear one more time if he managed to get within 100' with line of sight as it's doubtfully getting away (range is an issue for most of his spells, vehicle to vehicle combat isn't quite his thing, and he's not in costume so can't get too flashy). |

(Dark Rider)
"Stupid tin junkpile!" The old man kicks the tractor. "Don't know why you or your brother swears by the these things." A quick look tells you that he flooded the engine again.
(Scarecrow)
Your car clips the side of the building, causing the front wheel to come off. thankfully, you weren't taking it at high speed, as the front end SCREECHES out to the middle of the street.
(Yonette, Rex, Avery)
Yonette, you can tell Avery is now focusing on Rex, and Rex is focusing on Avery, as though they were locked in a battle of wills.
Rex, you realize that there is something about Avery that is very distinctive - a focus and willpower to rival your own, and a...perception that you do not believe to be entirely natural.
Avery, he's concerned about the police officer, but also about you.
(Lex and Vivian)
Lex's sister goes into the supply room. "I'm going to get some more flour from the depot. I will be back soon." She leaves the two of you alone in the bakery.
(Rex, Avery, Yonette, Lex, and Vivian)
You all hear the car crash.

"You know what, Grandpa, why don't you go see to something else, and I'll take care of this. I'll fix the engine and get on with what you intended to do."
Matt proceeds to do just that.

*has looked up at the mention of her name, studies them both briefly and is looking to the ground again. at the loud crash, she jerks the head up toward the sound and takes a step forward, then pauses to look at Lex before retreating 2 paces.
*her concern is a carry over from the days of growing up in the wilds, but now? let's just say that she allows Lex to lead, as this land is totally foreign to her . . that and she's the servant and needs to be 'directed' once outside the living quarters

Staring back to work, Lex flinched at the sound of the car crash. " Not again." He said as he looked up at Vivian, "She's gonna kill me if I don't get to work soon with that big order for this afternoon. Uh..., you want to take a peek and see what's going on now?"

Avery writes down all the information Rex gives, noting the penthouse location.
"No, not much of a dining establishment. I'd recommend you steer clear of it if you're not looking for trouble, tends to attract the rowdier crowd."
As Avery reads Rex's surface thoughts, he realizes how much interest is directed at him and abruptly cuts out.
Flipping his note pad closed, Avery gives a smile and begins, "Well, than-" Before the crash of the truck cuts him off and causes Avery to spin towards the disturbance.
"Today seems to be one of those days..." He mutters to himself, heading towards the truck.

Vivian nods quietly at Lex and heads outside to see what was going on.
