🕑 Added 2024-02-05 08:59:55 +0000 UTC( tiraa looks at cyras ahead, then turns to lyr and erka and smiles at them, embarrassed)
T: is that really what the news is saying about me and him?
L: seems so.
E: is it true?? what ARE you doing here with him??
T: i mean, it’s not like that, but it’s not, NOT true, i guess.
E: you’ve really been on the run this whole time? but you had such a cushy life lined up as the daughter-in-law to the director and everything.
T: that was…something my mother wanted for me. but once i started seeing the injustices going on from a different perspective…it wasnt really something i could ignore anymore, you know? Cyras saved me from a life of turning a blind eye on everything. he didnt have to, i was resigned to my fate, but im really glad he did. even if I can never live a normal life again.(and even if the deal i made with him was pushing me towards that life, also).
(Lyr looks away in thought)
E:...it probably helps that he’s hot, huh?
T&L splutter
L: erka!
E: what?? he’s got that whole dark and dangerous thing going for him -
L: because he literally murders people!
T:...he doesn’t, actually.
L&E: what??
T: he just lied about it in order to lead his Murder since the number of kills is how they rank themselves. he wanted to protect them.
L: by sending them off to do his bidding, instead? if anything, that’s worse.
tiraa looks away, thinking.
E:...still hot, though
L: you need to sort yourself out.
they all fly out of sight of the building Kerwick is resting on while on patrol with her partner. she’s watching, incredulous.
K: what - what the fuck was -
P: what was what? (turns around, squinting)
K: N-nothing, just a weird glare on my screen. let’s get moving.
fly off (a dead Murder Boss, the Director’s ex-daughter in law, and two Roost students entering Sparrow territory?? well…this definitely counts as something weird. I wonder what Kieera will think of this.)
(tiraa and co. landing on roof)
C: quiet. everyone down. stay hidden.
T: what exactly happens if a rival Boss is caught in another’s territory? even an ex-Boss?
C: I’m technically marked as kill-on-sight, hence why we don’t want anyone seeing us until we get closer.
T: And what’s your plan on getting us close enough to talk to their Boss, then?!
C: (gestures to box) I’m hoping this will sweeten the deal a bit, but other than that it’ll be down to bullshitting, mostly.
T: fantastic.
C: just keep quiet and follow my lead. (walks away in shadows)
E: (whispers) I’ll follow you anywhere.
(lyr makes disgusted face)
get closer to hq entrance. Sparrows swarm them.
Sp: not another step, BlackAsh. What’re these, your prisoners?
C: companions. we need to see Kar.
sp: what’s in the box?
C: a bribe. (slides it across) we’re unarmed, we just have something to discuss with him -
door opens, brek emerges with Kar.
B: tiraa? what the f-
T: brek?! what’re you -
K: well, i for one would love to know what’s going on here. if you’re idiotic enough to come here, you must be desperate, Cyras. I’m in intrigued. Enter, but any funny business and you’ll be shot, understand?
C: perfectly.
walking in dark corridor, brek glancing back at tiraa and cyras. cyras raises eyebrow.
C: (whispers) who’s that, another eagle fiance?
T:...ex-boyfriend, actually.
C: oh?
E: (he’s so jealous!)
L: (shhh!)
enter office with couches and desk.
K: sit. talk.
C: we’re looking for the Resistance.
K: (taken aback) have some Tact, cyras, icarus. things are kept underwraps for a reason -
C: i don’t have time. i need help to rescue my Murder.
K: ex-Murder, as I understand it. we’re in for quite the show where they’re concerned, I’ve heard.
C: the government is planning on using them during the war anniversary events as a warning for other corvids. I can’t let that happen.
K: and you think the Resistance is likely to care enough to help you?
C: did i miss the part where you became their mouthpiece?
K: …it would be interesting to witness what they do with you, i’ll admit.
C: i’m just asking for a guide to their headquarters.
K: (sarcastically) is that all?
L: i - I’m also looking for them. and…for a sparrow
K: a Sparrow, huh? we do have names, you know.
L: f-farrah.
K: farrah? never heard of -
C: Lila.
K: Lila? and what do you want with her?
L: that’s…my business.
K: raptors. always so arrogant. she’s not here.
L: where -
K: she’s not here. sent us a message saying she’ll be unreachable for a bit. I can’t help you, and i dont want to help you in that regard. in the other regard, you’re in luck. I’ve agreed to take this Eagle to the resistance, it’s no water off my feathers if a few more tag along. it’s also not my problem if they don’t let you leave after finding them, either. I’m just a liaison in Lila’s absence, they can act as prosecutor. with that being said, are you still wanting to go?
lyr looks at erka
L:..No. we’re going back to the roost, our absence would be noticed. (to tiraa) please tell the rebellion that the students are being given increased training in repression tactics, focussing on civillian uprisings. (to Kar) if you say that even you can’t reach Farrah, then I’ll have no hope of it, but knowing I didn’t cause her death has to be good enough for me.
K: the rest of you better get moving, then. you’ve got a long way to go. as for you two - did you think we would let you leave, knowing where our headquarters is, without some sort of deal? be imprisoned here forever, or agree to my terms. what’ll it be?
