Who: Alex and Belle
What: planning to search for Nazi gold in Genosha
When: early afternoon
Where: their house
Rating: probably some mild language, possible sex, the usual, really.

It was nearly one pm before Belle woke up again. She'd spent the whole night partying with Zatana and the boys, and had finally worked out all of her pent up energy and excitement. It had taken an effort of will to get home, but she finally did, and had even made it to their bedroom, though she'd opted to fall in bed fully dressed, instead of bothering with undressing.

But now the birds were singing, and the children were playing, and it was time for Belle to get up and rescue her husband from their spawn.

	He chuckled. "Okay." He nodded slowly. "So... how do we do this, and when?" He pondered. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She cracked her knuckles and pulled out a pad of paper.

"Easiest way is for one of us, probably you, to go to Genosha. Tell them our deal, but don't give them enough details that they could do anything with it. There are only a couple ways to get into the safehouse that contains all of the things they stole, and I'll probably have to see if Petit or Remy, possibly both, are willing to help. Telekinesis only gets us past the outer door, the inner door is going to be tough."

She sipped her coffee as she wrote. "I'll probably come along as a translator, unless we can find someone else. It generally doesn't look that great when a man goes before a high ranking official and speaks through his wife. Image is everything, especially in this game."

	He nodded. "I am sure I can find someone. A couple days of research will do the trick." He grinned. "Next?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She grinned in turn, getting up to poke at Alex's attempt at oatmeal. Deciding it would be edible with a little tweaking, she pulled it off the stove and began messing with it. "After that it's pretty simple. We'll negotiate the deal, probably wind up with a 30-70 split in their favor, but we can go down as low as 10% and still not need to dip into our own pockets for stage two."

She started chopping up fruit, eying the fridge speculatively. "We need to get rid of the cottage cheese. Kids stopped eating it. Anyway, step two is opening a resort. We hire most of the newly freed slaves, and teach them how to get by in life, since most were born into it. Which brings us to the real purpose of the resort. We're going to teach the girls, most of whom are already hookers, how to acts, dress, speak, and take care of themselves. Along the way, we'll teach them about sex, and everything they need to know to keep themselves safe and enjoy their work."

	He nodded, listening. "Okay." He grinned. "Noted." He bounced and listened. "Sounds like a lifetime carreer. I am proud of you, dear." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She laughed and shrugged. "I figure between the income you'll bring in from the inventions, and the proceeds from the resort, we won't have enough things to spend our money on that really matter. A box full of jewelry is nice, but knowing that you have an active hand in the lives of others? Making a real difference in the world? That's something worthwhile."

She shook her head, handing Alex his oatmeal. "Look what you did. I'm a hero now."

	"I am proud of you, dear." He set the oatmeal down and kissed her softly, and hugged her. "I can't wait. It sounds like a definitely interesting situation..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She hugged and kissed him back. "Bah. Be proud of yourself for putting up with me. And yeah, interesting is one word for it. Our first job is to tackle the school system, so our kids can get a good education when the time comes. Hard to believe they'll be two in October." She sighed wistfully. "Time flies, huh, ange?"

	He grinned at her. "You rock, dear love." He nodded. "Time flies with the woman I love." He winked at her. "And having an in with the top dogs of a nation means we can help form the moral and law compass of it as well." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Yep. I think we might have a couple things to say about the general state of life. If we're bringing the money in, we'll effectively own the country, and there's nothing illegal about it."

She smiled cheerfully. "No big boom, no revolution, just a nice quiet transition of power. We don't even have to change figureheads. Now if that doesn't make us the smartest supervillains ever, I don't know what does."

	He nodded. "I could get used to that. Scary, but cool." He grinned. "Supervillains? Us? No wayyyyy." He made an innocent face at her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	petitmort 2008-05-28 05:42 am UTC (link)
	She smirked. "Your innocent face is about as good as mine, dear." Which is to say, not that great. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He shrugged, "Eh. We will make a better nation, and not even kill anyone to do it. Not bad." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	petitmort 2008-05-28 05:52 am UTC (link)
	"Not bad at all." Belle said, nodding in agreement. "It'll be the most peace that little piece of crap island's ever seen, in this universe or any other." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He chuckled. "Then let's do it." He nodded and his eyes gleamed. Adventure awaited! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She grinned, raising her cup of coffee in a toast. "To Genosha, and our future." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	laststarfighter 2008-05-28 06:17 am UTC (link)
	His cup rose with hers. "And to having fun." With her? He would go and do anything. (Reply to this) (Parent)
