"Mostly," he confirmed. "Land, equipment, paying people off, but none of it explains the sudden recruitment drive," Doc growled in frustration. "We need more information, i doubt we have enough to even attempt to ask Mal. There has to be something we're missing, some key event..."

"Well... it seems like he's recruiting an army and needs skilled fighters as well as new blood... So it's possibly a long term goal unless he plans on using the new blood as pawns." For right now there were too many variables to count.

"anythig possible with him," Doc spat, then sighed. "Dammit, I hate being this out of control," it was true. He liked being the one on top. And didn't THAT bring up all sorts of images he didnt' need right now.

"Sometimes you just have to ride it out until you can do something." She got up from her chair and sat on the table closer to him taking off her jacket, running a hand over a cut on her upper arm. "You play your part until you have some cards in your hands. Every wound and impatient moment," she looked up at him referring to both herself and him. "well have it's payout."
Part of her wondered what he'd do if she were closer, part of her didn't want to know. Even though she believed every word she said, the idea of just going hom... Since when did she think of it as home?

"That's the thing," Doc said in frustration. "I don't HAVE any cards. I'm completley and totally cardless at the moment. I can't even watch your back, I'm stuck outside and there's absolutely nothing i ca..."
And then he stopped. A fleeting thought occured to him. An impossible plan, a thought that maybe there was something he could do. It was... insane. Completely and totally insane. And yet...
And yet...
Most of hte good they'd done since arriving, hell, anything they'd done right since his arrival in LA had been in a group of two or more. As it was they didn't stand a chance.
Fine, then. He could live with that. He'd just have to do some recruiting of his own.
"Maybe there's something i can do after all..." he muttered quietly.

"I don't HAVE any cards. I'm completley and totally cardless at the moment. I can't even watch your back, I'm stuck outside and there's absolutely nothing i ca..."
True, she was the one doing all the work, hoping for the payout of the chance to kill the bastard.
It was when he looked like he had an idea that she began to become worried. "Maybe there's something i can do after all..."
"And what would that be?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
You were hoping for a different reaction weren't you? part of her teased. Wanting something to hold onto while you're in there.
She slipped her jacket on, keeping an eye on Doc, waiting for an explanation while trying to quiet the voices in her head.

"Raven's doing some recruiting?"Doc said with a wide smile, brushing his hands off as he stood up. "Well, okay then. Fine. Brilliant even. Two can play at that game. And unlike him," he added, his grin widening. "I know who to talk to. Let's have some fun, shall we?"

She looked at the door. "It's day time."
She messaged the bridge of her nose as her alter ego continued to pester her.

"I didn't mean right now," he commented. "though I might go have a chat to a few people. You might want to get some rest," he gave her a kind smile, far different from any other he'd given her. "You need to be in top condition if you want to impress Raven tonight."

"You make it sound as if it;s a date..." she remarked rolling her eyes, though she did notice the smile. Sliding off the table she looked over at the exit. She should get rest.

"I don't think he'd no what to do if he got a woman in that position," okay, that was a little more snipish then he'd planned. He really had to get his emotions under control sometimes, he was starting to lost it around her.

She smiled this time, almost giving a feral grin. "My, wasn't that a little jealous." She tilted her head at him, watching him with amusement.

"Don't know what you're talking about," he said pointedly, looking away.

His jaw clenched for a moment before a slightly flirtatious grin spread over his face as he reached out to grab both sides of her face. "Well, if you insist," he said, pulling her into a long, passionate kiss. It was a full minute before he pulled away. "I've been wanting to do that for a while."
