ooc. I'm so sorry I've been absent here! I am heading out for a holiday celebration but I will attend to some replies if I have a chance when I get home! I apologize for making you all wait so long ~
Claire caught the brief change in his expression before the smile returned. It was subtle, but after everything she'd seen over the years, she had gotten pretty good at recognizing when someone was carrying something they didn't talk about.
“Found something here! Looks like a floor plan.”

Claire stayed close behind him as they approached the RPD, her pistol raised while her eyes swept across every broken window and shadowed corner surrounding the station. Seeing the building standing there through the smoke and chaos almost didn’t feel real after everything the city had become.
she entered the room. After he did the hispanic man would begin to more closely pay attention to the building. "Kinda ornate for a police department don't you think?"
Claire kept her pistol trained on the gap while Carlos squeezed through, every nerve in her body still wired tight from the horde pressing closer behind them. The second she saw movement forcing its way into the narrow space after him, her expression hardened instantly.
"The RPD is going to be just past here and take a right at the end of the road. Hopefully he's ready to see you already. Would hate to file a report for this."
His comments earned him another small huff of air from her as she rolled her eyes. Her ears a vibrant red. Though the ghost of a smile tugged at her lips. "Don't go getting use to it."
He's wondering juuuuust how far to push, but he does also knows if it goes to far she'd have no problem slapping him. "Awfully quiet when there's no BOWs around. Very cute, I'll remember that for myself later."
( she pauses when he lowers his arm. brows knitting together in quiet confusion. her mask slips a little and she leans forward to place a kiss next to his mouth.) I know. I just worry.
( the following sigh is long, quiet. he lowers his arm. ) i know, i'm sorry.
She noticed the flicker of his gaze towards her lips. How could she not? That did little to help the heat in her face. But the moment that confident grin crossed his lips, the heat reached the top of her ears. She let out a huff of air as she crossed her arms over her chest. Turning her head away.
Oooh, she locked up. Eyes slowly tore themselves from hers to her lips, then back up. There's a confident grin that shows just a bit of teeth. Brows raised with amusment. "Whatever you say then.~"

Claire watched that smile carefully, immediately suspicious of it the second it appeared. Ada always smiled like she knew something everyone else didn’t, and honestly, that alone was enough to put anyone on edge.
One should really impress me to make me say such a thing.”
Claire let out a quiet huff of amusement, shaking her head slightly. “That might be the closest thing to a compliment I’ll ever get from you.” Her eyes narrowed just a little. “Still doesn’t mean I trust you, Ada. Smart and dangerous usually go hand in hand with you.”
“I never considered you weak,” Ada shrugged almost nonchalantly, not even looking at the woman anymore—she seemed occupied with an imaginary mote on her shoulder. “Underestimating you would be a terrible mistake, and I’m not known for repeatedly stepping into an abyss of faulty judgment.”
Claire’s brow lifted slightly at the compliment, though suspicion still lingered behind her expression. “Wow,” she said dryly, folding her arms in return. “Coming from you, Ada, that almost sounds genuine.” A faint smirk tugged at her lips. “Guess miracles do happen.”
Ada crossed her arms in the chest and tilted her head to the side; the smug impression remained in place. “I never doubted your confidence. In fact, you are far more capable than many of your colleagues.”
Claire shot him a quick look at the comment about her having bite, disbelief mixing with a breathless laugh while another shell casing bounced across the pavement near her boots.
"Go, I'm right behind ya!" Carlos offered, firing again into the crowd to keep them at bay as he waited for her to go in so he could follow her.
"I have that in spades already, I certainly don't need yours too. But thanks for the thought."
“It’s called confidence, sweetheart. I would’ve shared it with you if I only could.”
"You look far too smug about something for my liking."
“Why not? I was sure I looked good.”
She continues to push her a slight distance before moving to hook her arm with her own and walk with her. "I told you I was starving and your brother has been harassing me all morning!"
“Oh- ok ok, whatever you say madam“ She lets her push her to where ever she wants to lead them
Her body stiffened the moment they made eye contact. Heat creeping up the back of her neck and across her cheeks. How infuriating this man was. But...why did she kind of like it? "Of course not..." She grumbles.
"Not even a little bit of a clue?" Slightly dipping his head down to make eye contact with her.
Well now you really make me want to. How is that fair?
You mean incredibly lame. Don't ever take me out to dance while I'm drunk. # not au
