The Bidder looked up, half expecting to see Victor behind the two but when she saw he wasn't, she turned her attention to the exhausted and bedraggled looking two. She extended a hand, palm up, clearly expecting to be handed the pad.

Jenga, feeling as if he might pass out at any moment, tugged the message pad from his pocket and dropping it in her hand.

"Great, now that's over with; is there anything else before I go and collapse in the road outside to sleep on?" Keenan asked of the Bidder.

"Who stole it." The Bidder asked bluntly, setting the pad down on the desk and folding her hands in her lap before looking to the two expectantly.

Victor had recognized them as they entered the den and, growling to himself about petty thieves and mob bosses, had pushed himself to his feet once more.

"I took it first, but then we sort of tag-teamed it back to keep it away from the marshall." Keenan yawned. "Oh by the way, Narcissus, he was sitting out there; he probably saw us come in here."

"Yeah, saw him" Sighed Jenga tiredly, rubbing out a stiff joint in his neck. "'nd stop calling me that, its not my name."

She shrugged. "Neither is 'Jenga'." A moment later and she snorted with laughter.

The Bidder rolled her eyes at the two, waving them away. "Dismissed. I will send for you when the next stage is to start." She said with a disapproving sniff.

"Aye." Keenan replied, then shuffled off like a zombie. She was about ready to just keel over and sleep for a day.

"This way." Terra caught the two before theys taggered out, gesturing to a small door off to the left. "There are bunks through there. You will find a change of clothes as well as water."
"Thank you nice lady." Yawned Jenga, before stumbling to the door.

[lol here we are posting in casual, and we have a slew of one-liners XD]

Keenan didn't argue, and followed after Jenga. Once inside, she didn't even bother to change. She went to the nearest bunk and wordlessly plopped down into it. Mostly she didn't want to change because, well...she had an image to maintain. Specifically, her 'male' image. She didn't want to risk anything if she had to share a room with a man.

(yuuuuuuuuuuuup! That's just how we do)

Jenga just fell face first onto the nearest unoccupied bunk and groaned appreciatively before curling up into a ball and promptly falling asleep.

Victor ignored Terra this time as he came in, dealing directly with the Bidder and arguing with her rather loudly when she insisted he pay for his property.

[pretty much lol]

The arguing kept Keenan from falling asleep right away, so instead, she tried to decipher what was being said while she waited. But she soon discovered that it really wasn't worth her time, so she tried to tune it out. But that didn't work either. So she frowned, now annoyed, and prayed that they would shut up soon.

A short while letter Victor left empty handed and seething, blocking out Orion's curious questions and tentative attempts at conversation as he made his way back to the Grey Checkpoint. ONce there he brushed past the security, using nothing but a glare to get through and heading straight for the Tower. Once in there he intended to fetch his gun and deal with the pain that was the Bidder once and for all.

So he finally left, and Keenan gratefully slipped off into an uneasy sleep.
Grim had been silently sitting on top of one of the upper bunks, and he hadn't even been trying to sleep. He thought it amusing that neither of them saw him sitting up there.

Meanwhile, a young woman stood outside the door to Victor's room back at the marshall headquarters. She wasn't a marshall herself, but she did come to visit oftentimes after work. Though today was odd, because Victor wasn't there. So frankly, she was just a bit confused. She had shoulder length red-brown hair that was loose, and she was currently wearing her work clothes--a suit jacket and matching pencil skirt, and flats. She didn't like dressing nicely all too much, she'd much rather wear sweats, but she hadn't bothered to go change at home, since Victor's was on the way from work.

Terra waited until Victor was gone before she returned to the Bidder's main office, taking up her usual spot in a corner with her arms folded. Assuming a bored look, she leaned back against the wall and waited for either an order or something to happen.

Victor stormed up to the tower, muttering darkly to himself as he got closer and even snapping at Orion when the dragon attempted to calm him down. "Don't tell me how to handle her I know how to handle black mailers!" He hissed, clearly distracted since he nearly collided with the red haired woman.

The woman, whose name was Marie, had to sidestep him to avoid collision. She looked surprised. "Woah, Victor? What's going on?" She asked in confusion.

"Marie, sorry I didn't see you," Victor said in apology, blinking a few times as if coming out of a daze and looking her way. "Nothing is going on, nothing new." He said in attempt at covering things up, although he couldn't hide his scowl.

"C'mon, you know I can tell when you're lying. What happened? I heard you snap at Orion." She asked, obviously not convinced.

"It's nothing please," Victor sighed, taking her hand's in his briefly before moving them out of the open and to a more private area in the courtyard before the Tower. He didn't like being very open or public in his relations with her, always worried of the possible danger it might bring her. Especially with The Bidder involved and the information she had gotten ahold of. He had admitted some of his suspicions to Marie about the kidnappings and missing Outliers, but he hadn't told her of the other Marshall Ethan and his connections to the exiles.

She sighed, but didn't press the matter. "All right, then." She replied, and allowed him to lead her off. "I take it then that you're having a rough day." She noted.
