"See I knew all you wanted was to get into my pants and you were only trying to be anit-social and innocent to trick me," she said laughing afterwards. It was good to know that they could still joke. "That's ok you may be a hermit in denial but you're my hermit in denial."
"Sounds good though finding somewhere else to go," Rae said hopping off the counter and walking back torwards him a little unsure if she should still keep her distance. She wouldn't be her if she did keep her distance around Sam or Schatten. Everyone else it would be fine but not around those two. "So where are we going to go?" she asked him. "You're not going to try and convince me that the squirrels actually have something interesting to say are you?"
She tried to remember all the places that they could go in this massive place. Though her memory was failing slightly. She only hung out in very few places here. "So lets see theres the rec room and I don't want to spar with you so the training rooms are out. Where do you want to go?"

"Aww dam my plans have been foiled, your too clever for me you know that" Sam laughed pointing at her accusingly. "Great so now I am a hermit slave?" he joked, aiming and managing to throw the core of his apple into a nearby bin. Watching it go in happily "Score"
As she came closer he put his hands into the pockets of his leather jacket, pushing himself of the counter so he stood up straight. "No I'm not going to lie about the squirrels, but to be fair to them they only have small brains and animal instincts. So unless its about food or something incredibly simple like a tree you cant get very far" he said truthfully "bigger animals are a bit more interesting though, in fact I'm considering getting a dog"
He couldn't think of anywhere to go, the building was huge but there were very few things in it of interest. So when she suggested the rec room he smiled before nodding in agreement. "Don't worry I don't feel like getting I disagree kicked today, the rec room sounds good though. One isn't that far away, also nothing has been broken in it yet really" Smiling at her Sam began to lead the way out of the dining room.

"Really nobody broke anything?" Rae asked. "I find that incredibly hard to believe if I'm being honest with you." She couldn't believe that in three months nothing had happened. "That's got to be a record that wont' soon be broken."
She followed him to rec room and when she got there Rae spotted the remote to the TV. "I call remote," she said and ran after it and then flomped down onto the couch. "Now you'll be subjected to the odd shows that I like to watch. That is unless you can keep my attention in some other way." She smiled at him before turning on the TV.

" I'm not going to lie about something so simple, the other rooms though. There a different story" Sam said with a shrug. Throw loads of completely different people into a large building with tonnes of easily broken technology and the result was pretty much disastrous.
Walking into the rec room he laughed as she ran for the remote, like it was something incredibly important. "Oh really?" he grinned slyly "Well I didn't want the TV, I'm going to go on the pinball machine" Walking slowly he headed behind the couch, making it look like he was headed for the group of pinball machines on the other side of the room. But as he walked past the back of the couch he laughed, pouncing over the back with the intention of stealing the remote. [/blockquote]

"You can't surprise a telepath," Rae said not phased by his trick to try and get the tv remote. THough the surprises normally did not come as a surprise and that fact really sort of saddened her. So she never really got the fun of a surprise party or presents but she still liked the thought that went behind them.
"You should really know that by now. If not then I really worry about you. You live in a superhero headquarters," she said teasing him. She always teased him it seemed. It was something that she couldn't help but do, and it was better then the treatment that most poeple got from her around here.

Landing ass first onto the floor Sam groaned "I thought I could at least try, since the idea of watching your shows sounds like torture" he joked, scrambling up onto the couch beside Rae. "What are you going to make me watch anyway?" he asked, still plotting to get the remote. Maybe when she was fully into the show he could sneak it from her.
"Well super none the less you can still fool people, and if you never try you never see do you?" he grinned back, ignoring the teasing. He was fully used to it by now.

"Highlights of last nights race," she said. "I wanna know how Kasey ended up going to the garage. I never found out. I was . . . interupted." She turned on the tv and found the channel. "Don't even try to think about taking it from me when you think that you'll be able to get it from me when I'm not paying attention because again telepath."
Rae had run out of things to say. It wasn't because she felt like things got akward or anything it was because she just had nothing to say. She eventually ran out of things to say to people. That's just what eventually seemed to happen so she tried to find something that she could say to him so that the conversation didn't die.
"So how many new people are there?" she asked.

"Last nights race? Kasey? Garage? I have no idea what you are talking about" Sam said staring at the screen when she turned it on, Easily distracted. Not bothering to ask about the interruption as he plotted to steal the remote. "Im not sure if I like this whole telepathy thing" he frowned "So you can read my every thought?" he asked, not sure if he wanted an answer.
A Comfortable silence settled so Sam watched the TV, relaxing against the couch. He was already bored of the show, but there was probably worst things on. Hearing her forced question he shrugged "I have no idea, not many I think. Its amazing how antisocial a large building full of people is" chuckling he stretched his arms out, feeling the bones click before he put them back down. "There have been rumors recently that the bad guys are starting to team up. I mean sure they used to partner up, but now they are doing it big scale. I don't believe it though, they are all too selfish to work together. What do you think?"

"If I wanted to yes I could," Rae said. "But it's not like I do stuff like that on a regular everyday basis." Rae tried to not sound offended but she was never really good at hiding the fact that she was angry. Hurt was easy and so was sad and disapointed but angry was normally not something that she could cover up.
"The bad guys are joining up?" Rae asked shocked and incredulous. "Is that supposed to be some sort of a distraction so that I forget that you want the remote. That's ludicrous Sam. That is absolutely ludicrous. They've never been able to work together before what would have changed this time?"

"I didnt suggest you did" Sam shrugged "Sorry" he apologized, realizing he had hit a nerve. "Its just strange you know" Hoping he wasn't digging himself into a larger hole, or larger grave he shut up. wondering why he even brought it up.
"Im afraid it isn't" Sam laughed, realizing that would have been a great plan to steal the remote. Say something horrible, now he wished he had thought about it. "Well its what I have heard from pretty much everyone here. Its hard to know how many villains there is, so how many have teamed up. But there is meant to be a pretty few, lots of people are now too scared to go out" he ranted looking at the TV as if in a trance "As I said, im not sure what to believe"

"It's a bit far fetched I supposed," Rae began. "But if everyone is saying it, it must mean that it's either ture or they want us to think that it's true to get us all worked up. Have they begun to split us up into teams yet and training us?" Had she come back to late to be with them? Were they going to stick her with newbies or were they going to do even worse by making her lead a bunch of misfits. She really hoped that it wasn't the last one.
"So that's why I'm back," Rae said. "Because the villians finally have a brain? Great."

"I think there are some teams, but they were self made. Nobody made them go into them, They just chose to themselves." He wasn't into the whole fighting side of things, apparently unlike everyone else. So Sam usually stayed away from training rooms and the like, meaning that he didn't catch most of the news.
"If the villains have teamed up, I suspect they will have gained a leader. But how they managed to throw aside their self love to follow someone else I have no idea" he said, pondering some ideas as he spoke "It has been awfully quite recently, and you know what they say. The quiet before the storm" Sam chuckled "So they dragged you back? Here I am thinking you came by choice"

"It took a little less dragging this time," was all that Rae would say on the subject of her coming back. Yeah she had really messed up when she had left last time and she was not in the mood to tell people what she had done. But at least she still stood a chance at being on the same team as Schatten. At least she would be able to stay out of trouble that way.
"Ok so lets get this straight," Rae said regaining all the facts. "There's been nothing but petty crimes up until recently leading you guys to believe in some supervillian conspiracy and then they pull me back which either means the world is going to end or the rumors are true. New I shoulda stayed gone. Just like the government. Mess something up then make other people pay for it." The dart board, that was on the right wall flew into the left wall. "nuts."

"This place isn't that bad" Sam suggested feeling her negativity. "And If you really get fed up you can just leave again, not like there is anything stopping you" Still looking at whatever show she put on, he let his head rest on the back of the couch. "Just I dunno, give it a shot. Whats the worst thing that can happen" turning his head the slightest to look at her, he smiled softly, trying to cheer her up.
"As I said, Im not that sure. Other people will know more about it than me, I don't listen to gossip often. There were however reported incidents where at least two villains where seen doing crimes, like robbing the city bank for example." Rubbing his head in though Sam sighed "Now im not a big fan of the government either but at the end of the day you are here now, Just try and enjoy it." As the dartboard smashed against the wall Sam jumped, realizing then how angry she seemed to be.

"But there is something stopping me," she mumbled before speaking. "I've given this place plenty of shots, Sam," Rae said to him not looking at him not being able to trust herself not to glare. "Everytime I end up getting burned. I'm tired of this. I want to figure out where I'm supposed to be in this world. I have nothing tieing me down. I have nothing that makes me want to stay in one spot. I just move and move and I don't stop. Everytime I come back I end up leaving quicker then I did before and it's normally not because I can't stand the psychic headaches and that I can't stand hearing the thoughts that people project making me question the things that are going on in my head."
