[Comes skidding into the room (fully alarmed) with her shirt half-buttoned and her toothbrush in her mouth] WHAT? What’s going on? Oh, I am alarmed, Ravi! You don’t yell that kind of stuff at someone with a baby. You have to stay calm. You….seriously? That is what the holdup is? She’s gotta go to daycare in like, an hour.

Are you upset that she’s judging you? Don’t worry, I am too. [She shakes her head fondly at him] You have to peel the little plastic parts off the sticky sides–like a bandage, you know?

Sorry! Sorry, I didn't mean for it to come out so...alarming. I pushed my yoga class but I swear I have been working on my breathing techniques instead of just dozing off during downward facing dog. I know, I know but look at it. Look at our baby then look at that picture of a baby---the cold, judgemental eyes are the big difference. This can't be good for her, this diaper baby is a bad influence. This---

Oh, like a bandage. Right... But yes, yes I am very upset. [ Upset as he was, the bandage comparison finally shed some light on the current sitch enough that he could finish the mission ] That looks right, right? It's on, at least. ... You have a, uh- A little, [ without thinking too hard, he reached out and wiped some rogue toothpaste from her cheek ] toothpaste. That was my bad.

“Shut up, Ravi. I can’t believe we’re legally family. It was really rude of her, and even though I know it wasn’t the end of the world–don’t give me that look, I do know–it still pissed me off. She has no regard for the rules.” And Addy was basically one big walking rule book. They were a match made in hell. “Oh believe me, with the things I know….I wouldn’t be in the county jail. Still might be worth it.” She paused like she was considering it, ignoring his insistent gaze on her. She was enjoying her new partner about as much as one would expect, and although she loved Ravi, she wasn’t really in the mood for his helpful quips about the situation. “I don’t know if it counts as the wildest if I didn’t want to do it.” Lie; she’d secretly been the teeniest bit glad Natasha was paired with her. If the woman couldn’t be in prison, she might as well be with the only agent good enough to stop her. Humbly speaking, of course. “That’s exactly the point. She plagued me throughout my entire career, and now I’ve got her under my command like some sort of ticking time bomb. She’s listening now, when she has to. But what happens when she decides to make a break for it on a job. My job will be over, as well. Oh, don’t look so pleased with yourself. When you sum it up you sound like a telenovella announcer. Besides, you’ve got your own too-crazy-to-be-true story. In fact, if I hadn’t seen the baby, I wouldn’t believe it really exists. Let’s talk about that life change for a while.”

"Shut up, Ravi. Psh. You better believe it, Ads. I have our parents' marriage certificate printed out and laminated just for occasions like this but lucky for you, I left it in my other pants otherwise this might be quite embarrassing for you. Look? What look?" 100%, he was giving her that look but it wasn't unwarranted. Ravi was used to hearing about how the world was ending around his sister on an almost daily basis- sometimes without even having to hear a word. "And you are basically one big walking rule book. I think you're a perfect match." He couldn't help but laugh at the look on her face alone. It was obvious Addy wasn't really in the mood to be teased oh-so relentlessly about her current predicament but he just couldn't help himself. This was wild. Not to mention that watching his sister consider any kind of law-breaking behaviour was nothing short of unbelievable. What was this criminal doing to her? "Oh come now, who else was it going to be? We all watched the documentary on E! and I'm pretty sure you're the only one that gal can't run circles around. I worry for Jameson though. It was nice knowing him."

"Alright, alright. I get it, it sucks. You're stressed. Can I interested you in a slice of lemon tart? Looking pleased with myself is my resting bitch-face so sorry, I'm not sorry. You're being dramatic. I love you for it, I'm proud of you for it but we both know that if she tried to make a run for it, you'd just lasso her cute butt back in. No muss, no fuss. It's pretty much your thing at this point, don't you think? I too love to be dramatic. Oh I see, we're flipping this on me now. Lucky for you, I am my own fave topic and oh my god, right? She was judging me the other day... My baby. Wrecked my whole life with one look and honestly, I'm still shaken to my very core," he said on a sigh, head shaking before he shot her another smile. "Look at us... Our lives sound so fake."

Al- Alia... Not to alarm you, it’s nothing alarming! Although maybe I shouldn’t have yelled ‘alarming’... Anyway, I- I don’t understand what’s going on--- [ He gestured wildly in the direction of their baby on the changing board...thing. ] here.

I just- The creepy baby on the nappies packet is staring at me. Judging me. I don’t like it.

Addy sighed, giving him an exaggerated eyeroll. This was Ravi, it wasn’t like she ever really expected him to show up on time. “Actually I got here late, but you wouldn’t know that. I should start making you pay when you show up late.” She gave him that smug smile she knew he hated so much. “She’s not that bad. I mean, if you can overlook her checkered past and the fact that she clearly has no idea how to behave when we’re stuck in the office. I’m pretty sure I caught her putting her feet up on her desk yesterday. Her feet.”

As she rolled her eyes, he grinned wider than should have been strictly possible at her. After all, he was adorable and she was not immune to his brotherly charms or so he liked to think. Of course she was being smug. He loved his sister but that very smile had haunted him throughout his childhood every time their parents gave her another gold star and him another grounding. What? He was just having fun. He did let out a laugh though when she mentioned the feet.

“Oh no, not her feet. That is just...horrifying. Disgusting. I haven't read up on the law lately but you'll know, isn't that a punishable offence? Hopefully you don't shoot her. I love you sis but I don't want to have to visit you at a county jail,” he said, acting as if a shiver had just hit his spine. He then leaned back in his seat, looking at her expectantly. “And? Where are the sordid details? This is quite literally the wildest thing you have done in your entire life, sis. I mean, teaming up with a criminal is one thing but the very criminal who both plagued and made your career? I couldn't have written it better myself. You do keep your wallet attached to your hip on a bungy string now, I hope.”

“Hey, if it isn’t my lovely sister... On time as always,” Ravi grinned, lazily pushing his sunglasses up onto his head as he fell into the seat across from Addy. He was, of course, late. He was late mostly ever week (or two, depending on her work) so really, it was to be expected.

“So... How’s it going with the convicted felon?”

Well, I was living in London basically. I’ve never been over state sides so I had an audition for 24 which was shooting in the UK and then I walked out of there and I got a phone call from my agent. They were like, ‘Oh, have you heard about iZombie?’ and I was aware of the comic. So I literally spent the weekend working on the small chunk of script that they gave me. I was put on tape in London on Monday then I got some notes from Rob Thomas. Went again on tape on Wednesday and Friday they cast me in one of the lead roles and I was flying out to Vancouver literally a week or two after.
