Drake asked, as finished off the ice cream... and just decided to throw the cone into the trash. He crossed his arms as he had a cocky grin on his face. Florida Man was a scourge to the nation and FAMA had to defeat him soon as possible. It was great that Henry was here, while he missed his bros on Task Force RAVEN; Henry was the next best thing. Though, some chick sped past them and said [i]something[/i] in European or something to Henry... Drake had no clue what she said or what language it even was - he only had the barest idea of Japanese from his mother and father's conversations (apparently Adam learned it just for her), but even then any native of the county would probably laugh at him. He wondered what the girl said, and was tempted to ask her - he came here to Charity Beach partly for the babes. But, Henry moved on just as Drake should have by this point and offered him some words of advice: "Sometimes you can't win 'em all. Think of it as a vacation you're being paid for. You'll get him. Not a doubt in my mind." Drake smiled, not cockily this time. Abel was probably the most dangerous man in the world right now and while Drake didn't have the power to stop him right now; he will find it. And if he can't do it, then he'll help someone who can, one way or another; Abel is fucked, and so is REA- Even though Drake's hearing wasn't superhuman like Henry's, even Drake could hear the gunshots and the weird sounds. It sounded Metahuman, and while Drake wasn't in uniform, he doubts the director of this city would mind if he lent a hand. "Course, Agent SNAX... is that supposed to be "Snacks"?" Drake asked with a raised eyebrow. Well, if Drake stayed out of direct gunfire he wouldn't have to worry too much about the bullets. "Eh, doesn't matter, should I transform? I can be right there with my lightning form!" Drake asked, but he also weighed how... unstealthy that form is. "Or... Sonya's form could be helpful..."

Matthew was definitely thrown off by what she did, and Amanda didn't know if that was a good thing. Honestly, Amanda was unsure if the magic that they had was still there... it wasn't the same. The two had changed, or did they? He left Black Fall for Florida! He's got his own place, but here Amanda was; still living in the Blackmore estate the same place where she always has. But, she had to focus on what was important; Matthew Detmer right now, and she knew that these interactions are crucial to salving their relationship. "You disappeared for years Amanda, in fact, you and I stopped talking after I left for Florida. Here. I mean, we did talk to each other now and again I guess, which was nice because I got to hear from you again, and for a while, I thought we were okay... But then we just stopped talking! No phone calls, no visits, nothing! I mean, granted, I was busy, and you were busy and, I know... I just- I thought. I thought we had something real. Don't you... don't you remember those nights we'd spend together on your roof? The papers you'd help me with? Science class? Together?" A tear almost fell down Amanda's cheek, she wondered if she became numb after father's death. She... used to spend so much time crying over him that in time she got so used to the feelings of sadness that anything "less" sad didn't elicit the same response out of her anymore. Maybe if she was with Matt, maybe if she went to Matthew for comfort everything would have been better. But yet, it wasn't. There was a sinking feeling inside of Amanda that knew that their... separation, was all her fault. She thought about Matt and wanted to talk to him, but she just didn't, she didn't know why. "I remember." A tear fell down Amanda's eye, and she wondered how legitimate it was. "I remember [i]all[/i] of it," Amanda mouthed out the words. "I... honestly can't blame anyone for our lack of communication but myself. I should have called, but the longer I wanted, the more I thought that it was too late and that you met some girl with big titties and forgot about me. I know I was hurt over... over [i]his[/i] death, but I can't blame all of it on him." Amanda took in a deep breath. "Look, all I can say is... I'm sorry. I want to try again, I want to fix things, and if you don't then I'll gladly be out of your hair. I promise."

Jason said underneath his breath as he laid eyes on Sebastian Montague. The disgusting rich man whose name was known all over this town like Jason's name was known all over Black Fall. Except Jason can probably say his reputation in Black Fall is more favorable than Sebastian's in Charity Beach. He immediately stood up and faced Sebastian Sr with a smile. "Hello, Mr. Montague, what do we owe the occasion to? You wanted to get out of the heat?" [i]Because you're definitely going to be in the fire if you get in my way.[/i] Jason thought to himself as he smiled at Montague, but he landed his eyes on his daughter. Pretty little thing... his daughters were better looking, though. "It's a pleasure to meet you, sweetheart," Jason said as he extended a hand to Jean. "I'll call you Jean, it's better than the name this egotist gave you." He playfully (even though he actually meant what he said) spoke to his daughter, and jabbed a thumb in his direction. The second they walked in, Johnny had his eyes on them. It was a force of habit for Johnny since when you're a crook, you gotta keep your eyes wide open. Even if it's a bunch of rich people, he couldn't help but look them up and down. Older white guy in a suit, blonde-hair, wife in a dress (or as Johnny saw her: Milf in a dress that belonged on the floor) and their... Daughter. An average height, skinny, white girl, but she was definitely pretty. She looked all shy, and cute and stuff - probably a real freak in the show. My goodness, she was definitely a treat. "Oh my," Gabe said next to her. "Are they the people Dad was supposed to meet?" "Going off of 'what do we owe the occasion to'... take a guess," Johnny said to Gabe with a smile as she groaned. "Look at their daughter, though. Cute, right?" "Eh, she's not that cute," Gabe said with a shrug as she shrugged. "What? Do you think she'd be better with burn scars?" Johnny asked before Gabe him a flat face. "Well, either way, I know what I'm going to be doing tonight; her." "Heh, I bet I'd have better luck," Gabe answered with a grin of her own. "Wanna bet?" Johnny asked, "If she lezzes, I'm going to kiss the Liu cow." "You're on." Gabriela said, "And you and that girl would make a great couple." Johnny gagged before the two nodded and walked over to the group - he was told to lay low, but... Johnny never listens - especially when there's pussy involved! Johnny had a cocky grin on his face as he put a hand on Jason's shoulder. "Oh, Dad, ain't gonna introduce [i]your[/i] kids?" He laughed. "Johnny Valos, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance." He said with a smile. "Gabriela Valos," Gabe crossed her arms, and her burn scars were relatively hidden underneath her jacket and gloves. "Just call me Gabe, loves." "You're only seeing one-fifth of the Valos family," Jason injected. "Let's just say I was a busy man over the years!" He laughed for a moment and his wife, Gabrielle, could only shake her head. "But, we're most excited to meet you," Johnny said to Sebastian. "You look..." He looked her up to down. "... Nice." He meant to say "very out of place," but that wasn't very disarming. "Mind if we let the old timers chit-chat and we talk somewhere else?" Johnny grinned at Gabe, hopefully, Ms. Montague will take the hint. Then Johnny will beat Gabe.
