006 ☥ exterminate regenerate I thought you always knew our fate

[ACCIDENTAL PUBLIC VIDEO / SPAM for McGee]

MCGEE. WHERE THE FUCK--

[She's not there, Ed. You know this. There's a heavy sigh mixed with a growl, and the viewers don't get the best view of things, but it's clear enough that he's pissed.]

You're trying to be a pain in the ass, aren't you. That is literally the only explanation because there is no other reason for going out into a fucking INVASION.

[And look who's going out into it himself now.

DAMMIT MCGEE.]

Ed, use the tunnels below.

If she was Underground I might.

[You don't know she's not, you're just assuming.]

It's dark, I'll be fine.

[She's not even going to see this as a mistake, Ed. She heard Bucky die, saw that others she cared about were out there and the second she had a chance to go, she went.

She's trying to get to Lockdown to get the weapon he made for her. Unfortunately this resulted in her pinned down in an abandoned building, tucked under the counter with her arms wrapped around her legs and despite what Rose said about the Daleks, there is very clear evidence that fire was used, if only to distract them while she ran.

She will be found very tired, sort of sooty and thinking she's an idiot and there are Daleks crawling around the area, discussing the Fire and the Human Who Made It.]

You've got a great deal to learn.

City's storm drains are part of the Underground's tunnel system. The drains are similar in style to those of New York City - plenty of room to move and deep enough that those above won't easily spot you thru the curb gratings.

She does this a lot, doesn't she?

.... I would tell you not to go out, but it would be pointless and someone SHOULD look for her. Would you like some help? Or would I just been seen as a hindrance again?

[He creeps out carefully, because he's not stupid, he knows the source and how bad they are and while he's invulnerable to most things he knows he's not invincible. So he's careful, moving silently, sticking to the shadows and counting on the fact that he's got no heat signature to carry him the rest of the way.

The fire, coupled with her scent, shows him where she went, and he follows, staying out of sight as long as he can before forcing his way inside the building. He pauses at the doorway though, just long enough to test, make sure he can get in, and then he darts inside, narrowly missing a shot by a dalek who's finally picked him up.

Great. Because that's exactly what he needs. He ducks behind the counter, taking up position next to her, on high alert, and when he speaks it's already half snarl.]

Seriously. What the fuck. You couldn't even wait 'til I was up to be an idiot?

[Boo, hiss. Mostly hiss.]

Yes. And no, I got it, unless you're looking to get exterminated; I'm guessing she'd want you keeping your head down like a smart person.

I figured that response. But I notice she can't do the same herself.

If you change your mind let me know, otherwise, let me know when you find her, please. Preferably alive.

[Pause. Okay, that's actually less crazy than his plan.]

...And I'll smell her through the grates. Alright, that actually makes sense. Thanks, man.

No. No, I couldn't. [There...might possibly be tears on her face that she's trying to wipe away with the back of her arm. Ignore that. Seriously.] Bucky died. I didn't want to see that happen to anyone else.

[She's set to stay in her small little ball, except for the fact that Ed almost got killed and it's her fault.]

I don't sit still when people I care about are in trouble.

Yeah, well. I think she forgot to read that part of the dictionary.

Sure, man. Will do.

[See? He really doesn't dislike you.]

Best extend the drains' offer of safe passage to her as well.

[There's a brief flicker of amusement.]

Is that one of those humor in a moment of desperation to cope mechanisms? Knowing Charlie-san, she read it, she just then proceeded to rip it out of the dictionary and forget she did.

[ A wild Howard appears. ]

Y'let Lena go outta the apartment when there's giant murderous pepper potts littering the streets?

[He's already dead, Charlie, it's kind of silly to say anything about him dying.]

He'll be back. It's the way things work around here, right? You die, you come back a few days later, good as new. No sweat.

[He tries to smirk, do the light-hearted "devil may care" thing that's usually his defense mechanism against everything, but it doesn't last long before he's tense and serious. He wouldn't care if it was just him, but he's kind of attached to her.]

We gotta get you out of here. It's not gonna last long, they're kind of known for being determined little fuckers who just want everything dead.

Take it however makes you feel better?

Listen, I gotta go. I'll keep you posted. And fucking watch yourself.

You think I meant to? She snuck out when I was comatose, it's not like there's much I could have done about it.

And who the fuck are you, anyway.

Yeah, will do. Definitely.

Remind me when this is all over I owe you.

I will. I'll be watching the network.

Be careful yourself, though. You'll be the one risking yourself.

[Shut up. He counts. She says so. He's hers. That's all that matters. She simply nods when Ed says Bucky will be back, biting back an urge to be argumentative. For once.]

I'll follow you. You got in here, we can leave the way you came.

[Her hand finds his, fingers lacing together with his for a brief moment, long enough for a reassuring squeeze.]

There's a back door. It's locked but I can get us through that at least.

Yeah, yeah. What're they gonna do, kill me? I'm already dead. [You may have a vicious and unpleasant smirk, Ken.]

Oh.... [Bewildered look in return, because of the many ways that can work.]

What kind of dead? You didn't die here, did you?

And still, it wouldn't be pleasant.

[He squeezes back, careful not to accidentally scratch her because he's all ready for a fight, hopped up on adrenaline and all teeth and black eyes and claws and it won't be much good against the pepper pots but it's all he's got.]

Alright. Let's go then.

[He'll let her take the lead at first, but the minute he gets a feel for where it is he'll push in front, at least until they need the flame.]

Vampire.

[A shrug.]

Wasn't fun getting this way either, can't be any worse. If it happens I'll deal.

Y'mean you've been sleeping through this attack? And people call me a robot.

Howard Stark, and you're the mysterious Ed I've heard about.
