Most of the agents are still off fighting the war in Europe, but there's been time for others to come home and see their loved ones. Overall, it feels like it's been a pretty wonderful day. What are people doing? Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

With the war ongoing overseas it's been relatively quiet here. To a trainer that would seem like a welcome break, but that was only half of what Matt was. The other half was a secret to almost everyone else. His second, secret power came with its own backlashes. Without anyone to unleash upon, the tension in him continues to build. He's just praying for release before it implodes on him. With a sigh Matt closes the garage door, locking it up behind him on the keypad attached.

Gun was hanging off her back. She greeted the tree she passed by. "Hello, Mr. Tree." Back to Top   "May those who accept their fate be granted happiness.

It meant she was in a type of space she enjoyed, but it also meant no updates. So, surprise, she went wandering along ampus to take her mind off of things. She recognized familiar faces, but they were few and far between. Catching sight of Matt, she waits for him to turn around before casually lifting a hand and letting it drop back at her side in what's probably the friendliest greeting he's gotten from her yet.

"Hey, Becca." He gets a glimpse of the girl talking to trees out of the corner of his eye as she gets a much more awkward wave. "Hi...Fred."

The movement of Enya heading towards them from the gate catches his eye, but he doesn't spare her much more than a glance unless she catches his eye. Then he'd wave or something.

Gun shouts, even though the only person who hears it is... Fred. Two black Humvees and a trailer truck are approaching the front gates from the street.

So she tries to push her herself through the bars. "Heheh." Of course now Humvees are showing up so it's kinda awkward.

"Target practice went well. Gun had a great time, and I've been making steady progress. After a break, I was hoping to study more languages."

The sound of the gates rattling as Enya pushes herself through does not, however, and Rebecca finds her roomate-friend-again pushing her way through. She goes over to help when there's apparently the sound of vehicles. "Enya, stop being popular." It's affectionate accusation as well as hope you really don't believe in. She more interested in getting her friend on campus at this point. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

"You think it's for me? Wonder who it is!" she grins, watching the cars, but grateful for the assist in getting through this thing. She probably wouldn't do this again. Bars kinda hurt.

Enya can make it through the gates with some help! The Humvees park a fair distance away while the truck turns, so that the back can face the gate.
