Welcome to Gaia! ::

*giggles slightly*
If you were in a serious condition, it could ves well be the last thing you ever do.

*sips his brandy*

"Well, good thing you're here now, Dougherty just left shortly before you arrived. Do you know TES could be faced with kidnapping charges?"

Plynn kyon, katana~ *waves as she leaves and takes a drink of his brandy*
Are you alright, fair dame?

Plynn kyon~ Please do be careful on your way to your room. You are still recovering, after all.

*waves, then finishes up his brandy. He sits there silently by himself for a short while, wondering when Tes is going to come back. It wasn't a lie when he told katana that he didn't know where Tes was. He may have been in contact with him via his mental abilities, but was never told just where Tes was staying and he did not want to dig further in Tes' mind than was being allowed.

Additionally, Tes told him he needed to stay there at MW, not only to help keep his own record clean but also to gain any information he could about the aftermath of dame's kidnapping to gauge how severe it was and how long he would need to stay in hiding. Though this isn't the first time he has had to fulfill such a role for Tes' sake, back on Norrath they had only been friends and it was common for them to not see each other for a few years at a time. Now was different. They were lovers... ones who had yet to consumate their marriage. Given the current circumstances, he's not sure that opportunity will ever arise in the next decade or more if it is to be done as he wished for it to be.

Suddenly, he begins to feel selfish, thinking he was asking too much. If he had just allowed himself to be with Tes fully, perhaps they would feel closer and things like this, with Tes going off for an indeffinite amount of time, would be less likely to happen.

He pours himself some more brandy and drinks it a bit faster than he normally would if he was drinking casually. He wished badly that he could speak with Tes right now, but his abilities only reach so far and Tes did not seem to be within range. He still had the lar khaliizi: the device that allowed he and Tes to communicate with each other even on different worlds, however if he were to use it in the bar or in a place where he could be seen by others, then it would be known that he can still contact him. It isn't even known if his quarters would be safe.

Frowning, he stands, taking the snifter and the bottle of brandy with him to his quarters*

After waking up and making a pot of pecan coffee to brew while she showers and gets ready, she pads back into the kitchen to grab a cup. Walking back to her quarters, she sips her coffee while she decides on what to wear for the day. Once she has finished her daily routine and is dressed, she grabs her phone, calling their security people and telling them that she wants the acting head of security in her quarters pronto.

Heading back into the kitchen, she gets another cup of coffee and has a seat to wait for the security head. Not too long after she had ended the phone call, there's a knock at her front door. She goes and answers it, motioning for him to have a seat. She takes a seat on the couch and looks at him seriously.

"I understand you're the acting head of security while Icy is away, correct?" He merely nods his assent, wondering if he's screwed something up and didn't realize it.

"Good, I know that she would have some sort of emergency plan in place should something keep her away for any extended amount of time and we would need access to her quarters and her laptops to which the live feed from the cameras is fed to. I need you to make me copies of those feeds. So, let's go to her quarters now....I don't have time to waste, and don't bother arguing with me about it either if you value your job here."

He stands and tells her that there is such a plan in place and that he must go get Icy's room key, since Psyzapp is the only one with a master copy. He tells her that he will meet her in the corridor shortly and leaves Kat's quarters. Kat watches him leave and goes to put her mug in the sink. Grabbing her phone and keys, she goes out into the corridor to wait for him.

He arrives back shortly, and they enter Icy's quarters. Kat looks around the empty quarters, missing Icy and wondering if she's all right and also wondering why she hasn't been in touch with any of them. Even Flame has been MIA for a long time.

They find the laptops and she tells him the dates that she needs for him to make copies of the footage. While he busies himself at the laptops, she wanders around aimlessly in Icy's quarters, looking for some sort of clue as to where she might be. When she heads back over to her desk where the security man is working, she sees a portable DVD player and a DVD on the desk. Wondering why it would be on her desk, she picks up the DVD, seeing only a date written on it in Icy's handwriting.

That's odd....why would she label a DVD with a date? That doesn't make sense if it's a show. She thinks back to that date, but remembers that Icy wasn't around at that time. She had been away from the bar. Frowning and curiosity getting the better of her, she takes the DVD, knowing that her laptop will play the DVD. Feeling a bit guilty at taking it, she tells herself that if it were a show or movie, surely Icy would have labeled it as such, and since there was just a date on it, it must be something different. Maybe it would give Kat a clue as to where Icy might be.

The security man finishes up, burning the last DVD and hands it to Kat. He asks if there's anything else he needs to do regarding the feeds, and she tells him she is finished with him for now. She thanks him and they exit Icy's quarters, where they go in opposite directions, him back to the security offices and her back to her quarters.

-after making the drink, she stares down at it, not wanting to drink it. She shakes up the chocolate syrup and adds more. Still not satisfied she grabs a spoon, swirling in the syrup and goes over to the fridge, opening the freezer and looking around. After staring at it blankly for a moment, she shakes her head and spies some chocolate icecream- Oh thank god! crying -she snatches the icecream and closes the freezer, going back to the counter and placing her glass and the icecream onto it. She then rummages around in the silverware and finds the scooper. Giving a few generous scoops, she mixes the icecream in, breaking it up and smooshing it, making a chocolatey-coffeeish-icecream concoction. She closes the carton, puts it back in the fridge, then rinses off the scooper in the sink. dame takes a small sip of her drink, gives a small smile, then goes behind the bar to take a seat and enjoy it-

-after a few minutes of drinking, she sighs and pushes the glass to the side, putting her head down on her arms.-

*After sleeping in today, she awakens to find herself in an empty bed. Officer Dougherty must have gotten up very early and left for work. She cannot believe how many hours the poor man has been putting in. He's been working 7 days a week for quite some time now and putting in TONS of time. She's worried about him and all of the hours he's putting in hoping it is only temporary due to Dame's arrest. sweatdrop She cannot believe the Police Department would be so understaffed. For crying out loud he's only one man.

Next time she sees him, she's going to try and suggest they have a night out. Perhaps go to dinner at Chatty Kathy's or go spend some time together at the estate in Upper GGG.

She hears her iphone go off, picks it up and reads the text Katana has sent her.* "Important"…oh lord what now! stressed *She gets up and quick tries to throw some clothes on.*
