Apartment Above the Boards, Friday Morning

[intraspective]

It was still disgustingly cold out, so Ino wasn't outside.

Nope, she was still hanging out on the couch, buried under dogs while the rest of them played or napped or wandered through the apartment at will. She'd never tell Zack, but a couple of the older dogs totally had her smitten.

Silly was perched on the back of the couch, watching the proceedings with beady eyes, but so far none of the puppies or the older dogs had made a go at eating Silly, which Ino figured was a win.

She was very damn near content as she worked on her petition for Tseng. Tseng was going to dismiss it no matter how much work she put into it, but hey, it gave her something to do.

And it would amuse her to send it to him.

"The fuck is an angel delay?" Reno paused, then shook his head. "Nah, I don't even wanna know. First check-in is in an hour. Set your timer, yo."

He was going in.

"Timer set," Ino said, her voice sliding into something cooler. Something more 'Iris'. "I'll be waiting."

"I know," Reno replied, his own voice the very vision of calm, even as he set the charges to detonate the helicopter if it was disturbed while he was away. "Thanks, Rookie."

And with that, he hung up.

He had a long walk ahead of himself, and he wasn't going to be getting any sleep tonight. The sooner he was on his way, the better.

Ino stared at her phone for a long moment, then pulled her legs up under her and got to work.

She had a lot of things to do in the hours between hearing from Reno.

He wasn't going to sleep tonight--and neither was she.
