After her date with Otto, Nevada was running on adreleline from just how much fun it had been. It had been normal, something she wanted from the island after all the holiday rush and battles and had earned her a very large crush on the death hunter. One she'd have to work out with all the other things in her mind.
But she was happy, and happiness always wanted to make her share that feeling. And who better to share happiness then with Roland?
Instead of the lockpick set though, she knocked once on his door before letting herself in.
"Roland~ Are you here?"

The desk was repaired, a laptop sitting on it's finished surface, the middle piece of wood wasn't the same color as the older parts but it served it's purpose plus an extra feature he had added for fun underneath it.
Today he was wearing the sweater Nevada had given him, a pair of jeans from Lex and was sitting at said desk feet propped up on it as he browsed a book on encryption and computer hacking. He didn't even bother to look up as he heard the lock clicking open till Nevada walked through the door, an easy smile spreading across his face.
"Hey you, enjoying your Christmas gift already?" Of course he meant the key.

She slid over to the sitting hunter and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, smiling as she held the key out. "It was a thoughtful way of you telling me to stop picking your locks." She murmured as she studied the runic laptop. "I also like the pajama's very much. Before I would just sleep in t-shirt. And now I have some decent amount of clothing. Lex even helped." She tugged at the sweater he was wearing.
"Does this fit okay? I thought I got the right size...it looks good though." And it did, Sauve Roland. Starting to look very Sauve.
"Are you busy today Roland? Is there something I can help you with?" She let go of his shoulders and started wandering around. "I have all this energy I need to burn! Give me something to do!"

Roland made a face as if in thought shaking his head, "Naw it was more like an open invitation for you to stop by whenever you wanted." He watched her eyes wander to the laptop and shrugged a bit in her hug. "It's uh, password locked, doesn't do me much good right now."
He grinned even more hearing she liked her pajamas, "I figure nap time queen needed something nice to nap in right? Besides silk feels nice so it's all the more fun when you decide to use my bed for a nap instead of your own."
To her question he only grinned stretching out his arms, "Like a glove they say. Lex got me some shirts too. So I'm doing better then old raggedy tshirts." Suddenly she was away from him, pacing the room in a far more agitated state then usual.
"Wait wait wait... you want something to... do? Nevada what happened to you? Did someone slip you coffee and not tell me?"

"That's a waste? Would you like me beat the password out of it?" She snickered as she punched her palm in front of him, eyeing the piece of technology. Nevada wondered how good it would be to get information from the thing the old fashioned way.
"Yes! those clothes, they felt great on the skin. I actually lived up to my name in them right?" She flushed when he boldly declared how nice it would feel when she slept with him. Oh...My Roland.
The pacing helped though to bring her excited self back down a little more.
"Oh well," She worried at her lip as she studied him. Though they had no claim on each other, it was clear that there was something involving both of them together. Which again made her a little antsy, she worried at her lip more before smiling. "If someone slipped me coffee, I would be a real cranky b***h. No I...I got to go off the Island with another hunter." Just thinking of Otto made her smile wattage brighten a little more. "It was very informational and fun." Unless he wanted to elaborate, she left it at that.
"But I really do need something to do, and there isn't anything physical I can think of. I need help Roland." She looked over at him, "Is there anything you can think of that we could do together? Or something I could do for you?"

Roland rolled his eyes chuckling, "No no, I don't think computer can be roughed up like that, I was thinking of taking it to the labs though or asking someone who knows a bit more about computers what they could do about it. In the meantime, it's a nice paperweight right?"
His own blush flickered across his face when it dawned on him how forward the sleeping statement was, but, well, he got them for that exact reason sort of. Just something nice to wear when they where sleeping... in the same room, hopefully.
Still it passed quickly as she seemed to settle down, chewing at her lip as she pondered something. "Well I mean, I didn't know that, but to see you this hyper it just seemed like someone would have slipped to something." He tilted his head though curiously, relaxing somewhat when she explained why she was so hyper. "Who'd you go with? I'd only been off island for the whole shopping leave, I haven't used my normal leaves. I wish I could go on trips with everyone I know but I don't have the time to do that..." He sighed wistfully, it'd have been nice just to hang out with everyone in a normal situation for once.
He finally looked back again shrugging at her last question, "Well I don't really have anything going on... but we could see if Lance is working on the Mist Lounge? He needed help with it and I really want to help him finish the coffee bar he wants to add to it."
He paused before adding, "Not that I would force you to you know, drink from it!"

"Well if it needs some persuasion, let me know." She eyed the paperweight laptop.
She went back to biting at her lip before smiling. "I went with Otto, he's a death hunter. Um close to our age, only a year younger or so." She blinked at the mention of not going off island for just a normal thing. She had only been awake a month or so and she had used her portal visits almost instantly, one for shopping and one with her date with Otto."Well when I get my next day off, we can do something normal." She reached over and ruffled his hair.
"Okay! I have the energy for that!" She bounced away and towards the door, a playful glint in her eye. "I'll race you." And then she was off, cackling evilly.

"I'll be sure to call." He probably would call, just not for that reason, maybe to share what he finds out. But he was sure punching the laptop would do no good for either of them.
Roland couldn't help though but notice as Nevada bit her lip, wondering why she was acting so nervous. It was another guy. Otto? "Wait wait wait, you mean the grumpy sour puss guy who's like... as short as I am?" He raised an eyebrow wondering what was so exciting about that. "You better keep to that promise, we only get like two trips a month or something like that. Might even be a year."
He was slow getting out of his chair, who could blame him? Roland was used to dealing with sleepy Nevada the one who needed coaxing to get up and do things, this one was a complete change and she was already out the door.
"W-wait up!"

Normally the easiest way to find the Mist Lounge was to look for the giant hole in the wall that lead directly to it. Thankfully at some point the hole had been sealed over as the entire wall was knocked out, rebuilt, and reinforced in hopes that it wouldn't happen again. The Lounge itself was a simple place. It was a room with several couches, tables, and chairs with a large TV all Mist hunters could share or turn into an impromptu (and comfortable) briefing room. A low counter top with cabinets built beneath them were along one wall, holding up a coffee maker that had seen better days. There was even a hot water kettle, bubbling gently as it kept water ready at a specific temperature. As the trainees entered, Lance looked up from the papers he was reading. He offered a small wave, then went back to what he was working on.

Nevada was still cackling as she slid into the mist lounge, coming to a stop when she saw the division assistant. In all honesty, she had never met the man...nor had she met Aria yet but....
"Hello Handsome~" Nevada greeted the other man, smiling easily at him. When Roland would join them, she placed her hand on his arm and squeezed turning her attention to the mist trainee.
"Otto is as short as you yes, but he wasn't QUITE that grumpy." her smile warmed tons of degrees as she walked over to the damage to the Mist lounge. Beyond the patched up wall, damage seemed minimal.
"Ah Lance." She began and then slapped her hand on her hip. "whoops sorry, My name is Nevada, I don't know if you know me...because your the assistant and all..." Way to be smooth Nevada. "Roland and I were looking to come help out here since we have lots of energy?"

Roland wasn't too far behind Nevada, though he seemed less thrilled about the race then she was. Sliding in behind her he scowled at Nevada as she grabbed his arm, "He's totally grumpy... I had to share the hospital room with him. Worst two days ever."
Eventually they seperated and Nevada was introducing herself while Roland moved to inspect the poor coffee maker while they talked. Glancing over at them from the coffee maker he shrugged. "I still think someone slipped her something from the labs, she's never this hyper. But yeah, we have the time to spare, and I heard word about your plan to open a small coffee bar? I could think of a few hunters who would love that."
Him being one of them, but you know, for the others.
Not just him.
He only really really wanted one.

"Where did you hear that?" Lance replied to Roland, raising an eyebrow as the trainees spoke to him. "It's true that we're planning on opening a place like that, but it's more of a... retreat, I suppose." The assistant leaned back in his chair, giving Nevada a surprised second look. Something about her made him grin privately as he spoke. "It's not here, though. Deus isn't everything. Have you two wandered down into the main Town yet?"

"Twitter, I think Candace or Cass mentioned offering to help you out with it or get supplies? I figured it was a job bigger then just one or two mists to do and that I could help out? Or we could rather?"
He paused for a moment looking at Nevada, "Maybe he's better when he isn't forced into a bed for two days. When a weapon can't patch you up that fast you know some hunters probably go stir crazy being told to actually stop and rest."
He turned back to Lance frowning just a bit, "No thanks. Last I heard that place had some kind of mist dragon, and I met that thing in the ruins of the Life Labs back when it was still being fixed. I've uhh kinda kept my distance for the most part."
