Edgar wasn't sure how much time had passed while he was in bed. He fluctuated between nightmares, restless dozing, and staring blankly at the wall. Part of him knew he should get up. Eat. Shower. But he just couldn't be bothered. As the bedroom door opened Edgar didn't even stir. "What time is it?" he murmured under the blankets.

Marcus Arkwright // Vice Streets // @darkenedroad

There was something tense in the air lately, something that kept Jannik on edge more than he normally was. But he had a job to do, and a reputation to uphold, and he headed swiftly to the usual spot – prompted only a little by the post-it note stuck to his mirror the night before – where he met this particular client. He turned the corner seeing Marcus already stood there.

She stared blankly at the training manual, ready to throw it out the window. This was not what she had in mind when she resolved to help as many people as she possibly could. Kayla glanced at the door, daydreaming of leaving early, when she saw Elijah walk through. "Oh uh, hey," she called out. "Heard you got engaged. Congrats." Even if he annoyed the hell out of her, she wasn't that much of a dick.

Ciara sat at the bar, patiently waiting for Aiko to get on stage. When she noticed a familiar face she did a double take. Admittedly she hadn't been paying attention to the tyro announcements, she had been too busy taking care of her loved ones' stress during the trial. Grabbing her beer, she got up and walked over to Danny. "Didn't strike me as Vice," she said instead of a greeting.

James glanced up from a file he was reading as Eli joined him at a break room table. Looking around them for a brief moment, he let out a sigh. "You really think Vice is behind closin' the gate?"

James leaned against one of the columns in the main entertainment hall, watching the crowd. Every now and then his gaze flickered up to the screen, to check in on how Edgar was handling. As something nudged him he glanced to see Eli holding out a small plate. A smile made it's way to his lips. "Really? Makin' sure I'm eatin' on the job even when yer not my partner?" Still, he took the plate and began to pick at it.

He didn't need to see his face to know that the red colour that flushed across his cheeks matched the red of his jacket, probably identically. His mouth hung open, and he felt like he was sweating uncomfortably, but he had no idea why. "I uh..." he scratched at the back of his neck, "...hey."

Knocking on Marcus' office door, Eun-Ji waited for confirmation to enter. "Dr. Arkright," he bowed politely. "Are the new set of scans in?"
