Carolyn didn't like it one bit. Tomas was letting himself get distracted and distractions could lead to death. It was time to do something about it.

Folder in hand she went to find her brother.

	Carolyn smiled. "It has been awhile. Sure. Let me shower quickly." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I need to do the same. I'll meet you at the front door in fifteen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Twenty five. I need some time to dry my hair." Carolyn wasn't a girly girl, but she hated going out with wet hair. It took a little to get it dried to where it didn't bother her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Not a problem he really had. "No problem. Twenty-five minutes then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn nodded and headed for the shower. Workouts always made her hungry and she was looking forward to some time out with Tomas. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Getting kicked around has done wonders for reminding him that he really did miss his sister. The Bat was a nice break, and would continue to be a part of his life - but this was family and purpose. He goes about getting ready with a purpose, looking forward to making up for the missed time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn was ready thirty minutes later. She went with a dress and a pair of heels. Just because she could kill someone with her bare hands didn't mean she had to give up being a girl. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He's dressed up for a decent night out. Their life and parents have left them with some money, and certain types of establishments are just better for discussing business. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn was looking forward to going out. She was beginning to feel as if the walls were closing in. A night out would do wonders. "Ready?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anti_venom 2014-03-20 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm all set." he agrees. He's gotten out and relaxed a fair bit lately. He tends to forget how rarely his sister does that when he's not along. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Come on then," she said. "It's been awhile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He heads out for the car. "Sounded like you had a place in mind. Just let me know where, unless you want to drive?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-25 09:56 pm UTC (link)
	"There's a decent place just a few blocks from here." Carolyn smiled a little. "I'll drive." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anti_venom 2014-03-25 10:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Sounds good." he agreed, heading for the passenger seat and tossing her the keys. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-25 10:51 pm UTC (link)
	Carolyn caught the keys and climbed into the driver's seat. She started the car and pulled out as soon as he was inside. "Mom called. Said she would be in the area next week." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That ought to be interesting. Scores to settle, or social visit?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-26 12:06 am UTC (link)
	Carolyn shrugged. "I didn't ask and she didn't say. Either reason, we get to see her. It could be dinner or kicking ass." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anti_venom 2014-03-26 12:07 am UTC (link)
	"Its a visit from Mom. Odds are, both are involved. The question is just which order." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-26 08:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Most likely," she said. "It will be good to see her. It's been awhile." Ever since they got busted and coerced into this gig. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anti_venom 2014-03-26 09:40 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah. She's not going to be happy with us ending up with the Squad, even if she's ended up doing worse." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-26 10:28 pm UTC (link)
	Carolyn shrugged. "Making Mom happy isn't my goal in life. Staying alive and staying out of prison is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anti_venom 2014-03-27 03:22 am UTC (link)
	"Those are good goals." he agrees readily. "Just pretty sure we'll hear all about her opinions of getting roped into working for the feds." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-28 10:25 pm UTC (link)
	"Of course. Could be worse though," Carolyn said. "You could hear her opinions of sleeping with a Bat." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anti_venom 2014-03-29 12:17 am UTC (link)
	That gets a laugh. "I suspect those would be a lot like yours." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-29 10:41 pm UTC (link)
	"Worse," Carolyn said. While she didn't like her brother's choice of bed partners, no way in hell would she ever say girlfriend, she'd keep her displeasure to verbal methods. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
