[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

Tom loaded the targets back into the trunk and slammed it shut. "You ready?"

"But.." he stopped himself, looking at her. "Okay."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"For?"

She gave a small smile and settled her head back down. "Thanks."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"To get out of here? We're gonna head towards Atlantic City."

He touched his fingers to her cheek. "Are you sure you don't need anything?"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Right, right."

"Can I have a hug?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Alright, get in the car."

"Of course."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

He nodded and did so, putting his feet up on the dashboard.

Following that response, she sat up again.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

Tom got into the car and looked at him. "Listen, I know you're upset with me, but at least don't scratch the dashboard. I'm renting, you know."

He slid closer to her and wrapped his arms around her firmly.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

He laughed. "I'm not wearing spikes on my shoes or anything. Stop worrying."

She smiled and just allowed herself to lean against him, wondering how long it had been since they'd done anything like that.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Fine," he said and shrugged, turning on the car.

He rested his head on her shoulder and absent-mindedly ran his fingers through her hair, eyes closed.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Any more qualms?" he asked absently.

"Thanks," she mumbled.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Nope."

"For what?"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Good."

"The hug," she said simply.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"On your side?" he asked. Might as well.

"Hey, any time."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

He laughed. "Don't push it."

She sighed a little and let her eyes flutter closed.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I'll try."

"You should sleep."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Good."

She mumbled something inaudible about not being tired.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

He glanced at him sideways and headed to the highway.

"Uh-huh, sure," he teased lightly.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"What?"

"No, really," she insisted, "I think it's just the shock."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Nothing."

"So you're just going to sit here? I could take you to bed if you want," he offered.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Sure."

"Careful with your words, dear," she murmured.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Really this time."

He sighed. "You know what I mean."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Okay."

"That was supposed to be funny."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

((um, should we skip to the actual mission, or do you have something in mind?)

"Should I pretend to laugh?"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

((i have nothing up my sleeves. let us skip))

"Well, if it wasn't really funny, then don't bother."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

((woo.))

Tom sat on the rooftop, the sniper rifles set up beside him. He was peering into the next building with a set of binoculars.
"I don't see him yet. He's probably running late," he muttered.

"Yeah, I don't think it's gonna happen."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Does that sort of thing happen often?" James whispered anxiously.

"Well excuse me."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

Tom lowered the binoculars and looked at James, smiling. "Hey, man, don't worry. You've done this before, remember?"

He smiled a little. "You're excused."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Not in a helluva long time."

"Thanks."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Just relax," he said and turned back to the window. "Hey, I think that's our man..and his two body guards. Perfect."
Just then, a black cat came through the roof top door and sat down next to James. She pawed at his leg; Tom didn't seem to notice.

"Are you content with just sitting here?"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Can we talk later?" he asked the cat, cringing at her presence.

"Yes."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

She hissed quietly and nudged him.

"Okay, alright."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"I don't speak cat, remember?"

"Are you not?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

She padded towards the door and back.

"I'm content with whatever you are."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"This isn't really the best time," he whispered.

"Isn't that too simple for you?" she teased.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

She persistently nudged him and pawed at his leg.
"Don't shoot yet," Tom murmured.

"I don't think so."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

He ignored Tom, because he wasn't intending to shoot, and picked up the cat by the scruff of her neck. "Use your words," he hissed.

"That's good."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

She hissed and then her face morphed into her human one. "Come with me," she whispered, and then the cat face returned.

"I think so, too."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Can you give me fifteen minutes? I'm kind of doing my job."

She nodded and kissed his cheek. "You're too good to me."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

She shook her head and went over to the door, standing by it vigilantly.

"Am not."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Thanks." He turned his attention back to the job.

"Of course you are. I hardly deserve you."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

She hissed and pounced on him, biting into his arm.

"Don't say things like that."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

He let out a muffled cry of pain and pried her off him. "Unless you can stop time, I can't focus on you right now."

"But it's true. I've hardly been kind."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

Tom sighed and sat back. "Damnit, they're moving to another room," he muttered, "We're going to have to wait." He kept his eyes trained on the window.

"I've given you a hard time."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

He rolled his eyes and glared at the cat. "How long is this gonna take?" he asked her.

"How?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

She tugged on his pants leg and scampered back to the door.

"Being distant."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

He looked back to Tom by the rifles, completely oblivious. Shaking his head, he followed the cat. "This is a terrible idea," he muttered to himself.

"Anything you've done I'm sure to have done worse."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

Morgana meowed pleasantly and slipped back into the building, making her way down the stairs and through the hallways into an empty room.

"Mimi, please."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"What do you possibly want at this hour?" he asked, coming into the room after her.

"What?" She paused. "Why did you call me that?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

((gtg))

She morphed into her human form and turned to look at him. "I'm here to offer a proposal."
Tom watched their target move back into sight. "Alright, get ready," he murmured and glanced to the side. James's absence caused him to fall over. He cursed loudly and went into the building.

"Call you what?" he asked.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

((aww, byeas!))

"Yeah, and what part of that couldn't wait?"

"You called me Mimi. You never call me that," she murmured.
