Waiting at someone else's home

[aivea]

The assassin who had fought with Narcissa had not remained long in the capital. Simply put, he hadn't felt it a bright idea to go back to somewhere where he'd killed someone of high rank until at least a bit of the heat was off. But this man, known as Wade, had done one last thing before leaving Humontis: he'd captured the guard of the Scion of the Earth Mother.

Amaretto is currently tied to one of the chairs inside Dio's home, and is asleep at the moment out of sheer lack of anything else to do. Talking or negotiating seemed futile and it wasn't possible to fight while bound for obvious reasons.

"Ah, come on, Dio. You gotta come home eventually, at least to get a fresh set of socks and undies," Wade says in the direction of Humontis. "And eventually someone'll get the note I wrote that I took a prisoner to hold here, even if it mostly melts first."

For some reason, the note had been written using colored wax.

Dio arrived home with Terezia, and it was obvious he was fuming from all the recent experiances. He only loosened up a little to see Wade present at his house with a gift that made him quite happy.

"You exceed my expectations again Wade, I don't remember who found you but I am certainly glad that they did. But if you don't mind me asking, what in all of eternity do you think you are doing?"

He glared daggers at the man, shooting his eyes to the dresser and then back to the man again. This wasn't the way to get a conversation started on the right foot with the Legion leader. Terezia was doing all she could to keep from laughing at the exchange.

Wade then pulls one of Terezia's bras out of Dio's drawer, and holds it- though unintentionally- where the Beast can see it. "This doesn't look like Dio's size..."

Finally, he turns around, then says, "I was bored, and Mr.CuddleUpwithScion over there wasn't talking to me, so what else was I supposed to do? I'm not doing anyone's laundry but my own; some people don't like soap touching their clothes. Anyway, what'd I miss?"

[adris]

The color went out of Terezia's face as she quickly reached out and snapped the item out of Wade's hands. Everyone in the room could hear her audibly growl as she tucked it safely away. She in the end opted to cross her arms and not look at Wade until she has cooled down enough.

"Right... anyway I thank you for bringing the man to me. It really is appreciated that the people I trust can still get thier jobs done right. You missed me claiming the loyalty of the monks, it seems everything will settle down nicely. Is there anything you want from all this?"

After a while of cooling off Terezia could be seen laughing to herself, recognizing the humor in her situation. She tended to like Wade, this was more embarrassment then anger.

[aivea]

Amaretto wakes up, and says, "More of you? Another Earth and a Beast, from the looks of things. It's like I said before, you're not going to find anyone of my nationality supporting this kind of madness..."

Wade grins. "Wanna bet? You didn't answer me last time."

The Wind just sighs in reply.

[adris]

Dio and Terezia look at one another strangly then back to Amaretto. Was the man truly so convinced that his blook was so pure and rightous it was above all this? After a little chuckling with himself he replied to the statement.

"My top general and personal aide is a wind you pitiful fool. If it there was any element that was particularly hard to recruit it was water. I would cut your holier then thou attitude if I were you prisoner."

If Wade really did manage to put anything on the bet he just won it. Knowing the man though he wouldn't stop to care if there were any terms as long as he won.

[aivea]

Wade snickers, and does a little victory dance in place before remembering Dio and Terezia are present which causes him to stop suddenly.

"...why did you pick me as your prisoner anyway?" asks Amaretto to change the subject. "I'm not a member of the military, or Senate, so I don't see how my capture would be of much assistance to your coup."

Looking toward Amaretto, Wade shrugs. "Thought Dio'd find a use for you. Besides, it's not always who you are, or what you do, but who you know."

[adris]

Dio even smirked a little at Wade's gleeful little dance. If he was nothing else he was effective, its hard to find someone that is as good as this man without him also possessing a few of his quirks.

"Are you dense maybe? No you aren't a senator or part of the military, and that is why you are still alive. You are a part of something more powerful then that, you control the heart of the most important figure in Humontis. Wade, I have buisiness to attend to, take whatever you can carry out of here as your reward. I can't be away from the Mountain for too long quite yet."

He turned to leave the shack and start the trek back to Humontis, pleased with the newest catch. With him around he had Humontis at his feet whenever he needs it to be. Terezia seemed to be pleased because Dio was, and rembering what he said to Wade about a reward she tossed the bra the assassin found earlier back to him with a giggle and a wink.
