Drake grit his teeth... but she was right.
"I can do that then."
He relented.

Leif took a deep breath, her shoulders slowly relaxing once more. She nodded, inhaling the smoke of her cigarette deeply.
"Thank you."

He would smoke his own cigarette.
"Yeah. Sure. Sorry."

"Its fine."
She gave a shake of her head and turned her attention back to the ocean.
"Besides... fat lot of good it did them. They're all probably dead, now, anyway."

"Probably..."
He admitted. Sorry sons' o' bitches.
"Damn..."

Leif sighed and gave a shake of her head.
"It's whatever, at this point. No use crying over spilled milk. We're here now, and I have to figure out what I'm going to do, here. I was thinking about traveling again, if I could find a way to get a motorcycle. Just hitting the open road, seeing what I can see. You know?"

"Eh... bout that... probably got some time to earn the money you need to get that bike. Cause this city is under locked down. No Metas can leave."

Leif turned to look at Drake with a furrow of her brows, her lips thinning in disapproval.
"What? Why not?"

He would shrug as he took another drag.
"Probably to make non-metas feel safe."

She stared at Drake for a long moment and then sighed. They were trapped here... and the awareness of that fact crept across her skin. It rankled. She didn't want to stay here, or anywhere, stuck in one place for too long. She had gotten far too used to the open road.
"Because trapping a bunch of warriors who are used to fighting to get what they want in one city, big or not, is such a brilliant idea. People are going to get cabin fever, and quick."

"Agreed."
He sighed as he took one last drag of his smoke before tossing it.
"I've itching to leave. Hell, I would've been gone before the apartments were set up if I could've."

"Yes, but you're also wanting to leave this WORLD, not just this city."
Leif snickered quietly to herself and gave a slight shrug of her shoulders, turning her attention back out to the ocean, thoughtfully.
"What do you DO around here to keep yourself from going crazy?"

He chuckled.
"I train one midget, make life hell for another midget, and am currently working to take down an evil underground organization hell bent to take, manipulate, and control Meta's for their own personal gain."
He would shrug.
"The usual."

Leif stared at him for a moment, and then fell into laughter. It was strange, considering she had spent most of their conversation quiet and monotonous, but her laughter was light and tinkling.
"You know, the hardest part to believe about any of that is that you somehow found two midgets."

Drake couldn't help but laugh as well.
"That is 100% a fair point! Oh oh oh! And their dating!!!"
