Arch the Angel Surprisingly enough, it was Jarred and Adam, their dogs in tow, who had arrived first, speeding the entire way in his car, him cutting them off being one of the reasons the other two hadn't yet arrived. Jarred knocked at the door, looking slightly impatient. Roxanna stood up from the couch and moved to answer the door, checking the spy hole before opening. "That was fairly quick, I was expecting to see Sam and Jeffery before you. Do you need help carrying anything inside?"

Marcus opened the door to his condo, inviting Jarred in, taking some of his armful of stuff as he entered.
"And I am guessing you are this 'Jarred' I have heard mention of?"
Rook got up, and made for Kat's room, to see how she was.

Kat glanced up slightly from the pillow as Rook walked in. "Jarred's here?" She asked, laying her head back down. "And the kid, they're all right?"

"Both of them. Jarred's grumpy, but he's safe. So's Adam." He replied, keeping his voice quiet, taking her hand in his, "Aside from the headache, how are you feeling?"

"Jarred Shanra. I'd shake your hand but their full." He said, stepping in, followed by the parade. "Do we have some sneaky place to park?" He set the suitcases down, glancing at Roxanna. "I drove here fast. I didn't want anyone following me on the off chance I was watched."

"You mean...aside from the pain that's tearing your head into pieces, how are you feeling? What the hell kind of question is that, Rook?" She winced at her own outburst, taking a deep breath to calm it. After a moment of quiet she closed her eyes, "I was stupid today, and kissed someone who didn't want to be kissed. God I hate my power," She added quietly.

Arch the Angel "Jarred Shanra. I'd shake your hand but their full." He said, stepping in, followed by the parade. "Do we have some sneaky place to park?" He set the suitcases down, glancing at Roxanna. "I drove here fast. I didn't want anyone following me on the off chance I was watched." "Drove in what?" Roxanna asked. She gave Rex a wave for a greeting, still not positive what actions to take with a dog.

Rook stayed quiet, but gave Kat a small, reassuring squeeze to the hand.
"I'm no good at comforting. Just figured I'd ask how you were, though it's pretty obvious."
"Well then, Jarred... Let me take some of that for you... I have a room just down the hall we can get you set up in. I only have three, now, but I intend to have some beds set up in each soon." HE said, making to take some more of Jarred's load, having set down what he had taken a moment ago.

Jarred nodded. "Thanks, but it's not all mine. Everyone was crashing at one of my places till the bad guys found out about it. Made for more excitement than it really was."
Rex just wagged his tail at Roxanna, smiling.
"We took my Cayman. I didn't really want it out and about, but desperate times and all of that."

Marcus raised an eyebrow.
"A Porsche? Kids these days." He led Jarred to the room he had mentioned, setting down the bags, "Anyways... Make yourself at home. If there's anything you need, let me know and I will make it so."

Roxanna smiled back, assuming the communication with the dog was successful. "A Porsche?" She looked up, "I wouldn't have pinned you as a Porsche man." She shrugged, "I was never allowed to drive any of Nick's cars, it made him too nervous."

Das Steube Rook stayed quiet, but gave Kat a small, reassuring squeeze to the hand. "I'm no good at comforting. Just figured I'd ask how you were, though it's pretty obvious." "Well then, Jarred... Let me take some of that for you... I have a room just down the hall we can get you set up in. I only have three, now, but I intend to have some beds set up in each soon." HE said, making to take some more of Jarred's load, having set down what he had taken a moment ago. "Yes, it is something obvious." Kat said with a slight grunt. She pulled herself off the bed, blinking some and cradled the side of her head as she made towards the door.

Adam just nodded, still feeling a little woozy from the car ride, along with being tired. He had been having issues sleeping the past day or so.
Sniffing a little, Adam perked up, "Is there a pool in here? It smells like a pool..."
Olivia had wandered off to an empty room, pulling up a piece of carpet and continued her now daily routine of trying to levitate her cigarette case of her own free will, not because of seeing her boss in the most awful robe and slippers EVER and going into a giggling fit.
If she was going to help put a dent in a giant world organization of super people, she'd at least make herself learn to not die without a fight.

"Porsche is just what I had there. I don't drive my really nice cars except for special occasions." He said after he returned from the room with Marcus, thanking him.
"So do we have a battle plan? What all did I miss?"

Kat walked out from the room, she was still looking death-pale, her eyelids slightly bruised and her hand holding her head together, but her eyebrows had risen up in interest as she glanced around the room. "Did I hear someone say Porsche?"
