[nospaces] [attr="class","calpurnia"] [attr="class","text"] Calpurnia raised a brow at the ivory-haired woman. “Is it now?” She could not resist a scolding cluck. What a silly thing, caving to stereotypes. Expecting a lady to meet her in some dark alley. “I would think it’d be best to meet somewhere…unexpected.” The Boys in Blue always poked their noses in the obvious places—seedy motels, underground hideouts, and other seedy places. But she didn’t know anyone who’d start at a beach. [break][break] “I am just asking you to do your job.” An envelope moves from her bag into her hand. “There’s a nasty little League scientist poking his nose where it doesn’t belong.” And, just last week, the man had the gall to send her a threat. He’d realized the signature from one of their newest weapons matched something in her old files. What a useless, little kiss-up. [break][break] At first, Calpurnia had been tempted to ignore his vacant little tantrums. Allow the silly manchild to hang out to dry. After all, the second he let the Meowth out of the bag, any armor vanished. Which meant he couldn’t do anything if she did not play along. The only reason he knew about that concoction was because he’d helped her develop it. [break][break] But then, last week, he’d mentioned Cassandra Kubrick. Implied he’d let something slip to her friends at school. So, he’d left her with no choice. Rats deserved nothing but extermination. [break][break] “I just need him to take a nice, long vacation.” The money was taken from multiple accounts over the past few weeks. “It should be easy for someone so recommended.” A little bit of sucking up never hurt. “It is not as if the sexless little nerd has anyone who’d care.” The first pile of money appears in her palm. She fans herself with it. "I don't care how it's done, as long as it's not a spectacle." A few other purchases between each withdrawal to try and disguise its purpose. “Should be simple enough for a woman of your caliber."[attr="class","ooc"] @cammelia [break] NOTES ✦ Not my best Kelpie post, but it's better to have one than to not.[break]
