The roof, Monday evening

[nadiathesaint]

After spending some mostly handwaved, thanks to the work schedule time in town that afternoon and visiting Jamie, Nadia decided that the easiest way to figure out what she should do about what was happening to her friends in Argentina was to contact the only person she knew who might be able to have an opinion on it, Sophia.

An hour and a long distance phone call later, and Nadia was officially enrolled in Senor Fox's training program and had a plane ticket to leave from Dulles Wednesday night.

It was all rather more sudden than she'd expected, and her mind was whirling. She hadn't even decided that she was going home, but Sophia seemed to have decided for her.

She had no idea what to tell Walter, let alone anyone else.

So she sat on the edge of the roof and watched the sun set, trying to work everything out in her mind.

Pippi wandered up to the roof.

"Hey."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia stuck a smile on her face. "Hey, Pippi."

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"What's new?"

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia took a deep breath and let it out before responding. "I have a plane ticket. Wednesday night."

If it wasn't for the sigh, this statement wouldn't have had the same impact.

"Where you going?"

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Cally sighed overdramatically and sat down next to Nadia.

"Well, my plans for tonight are gone."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia blinked. "What were your plans?"

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Jack and I were gonna go on, like, a little date," Cally said. "But he's taking care of Cedric, so, nope, no luck for me." She patted her toolbelt. "Was planning on checking out the Viper controls, but then somebody else was up here."

[nadiathesaint]

"Don't let me stop you."

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Cally shrugged. "Eh, it can wait. I'm more wondering why you're up here."

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"I was at Caritas before." Pippi said. "It was quiet."

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Ooookay?" Cally raised an eyebrow at Pippi.

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"What were you planning on doing?"

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Jack was supposed to go out on a date with me," Cally said. "But he's busy, now."

Tyler wanted some air, so he went up on the roof to think. That high up, there was almost a breeze.

He nodded a brief greeting to the other people on the roof.

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia nodded back. Her nose was still slightly swollen.

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Tyler tilted his head with concern. "Did I do that?" he asked., indicating his nose. "Didn't think I hit that hard."

He was lying. Kind of. He wasn't trying to break her nose, anyhow.

[nadiathesaint]

"You did, but it's okay. I kind of nailed you, too."

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Pippi waved to Tyler.

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Pippi," Tyler said. "How'd you like lying this morning?"

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"I thought it was good." she said. "But I'm just so happy to be able to talk I think we coulda been towing line and I'da enjoyed it."

After finishing up at Cafe Fina, Walter headed back to the dorms to pack and prepare to move back to the cabins. He saw someone silhouetted on the roof and went up to see if it might be one of the usual roof suspects, particularly his emoing girlfriend.

"Hey."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia looked over. "It's official."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Walter stopped where he was and patted his waistcoat for a cigarette.

"When?"

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia was fighting back tears. "The flight leaves Wednesday night." She hurred on. "I was just asking for advice, but Sophia insisted, and she bought the ticket and signed me up and I could barely get a word in."
