Where on Earth, Spies Ch. 26"Vous êtes loin de chez eux, amant. Vous vouliez me voir?" Carmen spoke French so none would overhear. She walked into the Russian bar and sat down beside Waldo, who was sitting with his hands folded, staring at the counter. In front of him was water. Just water.
"Has anyone ever told you your French is quite good"
"I only speak it rarely. But you are far from home."
"Perhaps closer than you realize."
"Oh? So, to what do I owe the pleasure? I could not make it sooner, I was on holiday. That is how the English say it, I believe."
"When are you not? At any rate, it was a work letter. To tell you that we are doing as you asked."

Not Mischief, he was on the floor chewing a tough piece of bread. The mutt was Mayhem, sleeping soundly sprawled across the couch. He seemed to find Flo the most comfortable spot in the house, whether she was sitting on the couch or cooking or what. He hadn't expressed any romantic interest, he was just surprisingly clingy. She wondered at times if he was like that with Carmen, but he seemed to be afraid of her, from what she had seen.

Where on Earth, Spies Ch. 24"Zdravstvuĭte, chto u vas yestʹ dlya menya?" Carmen trilled to the computer. She was sitting in the hotel room on her bed. She looked over at Alik on his bed. He was sleeping quite soundly, which was cute in its own right. She let the Henchman have his own room, she thought it'd be fun to share a room with Alik. The idea made him blush at first, but there were two beds, so he calmed down quickly.
"My Russian sucks, boss, please. English?" Mayhem commented from the other side of the world.
"Tisk tisk. You should be studying. Have you looked at any of the lessons I left with you?" She asked with a scowl.

Mayhem walked out into the snow, singing along with one of the children's tunes he had learned from Alik to teach him the language, carrying Mischief in tow.
He was on his way to check Carmen's mail, and had the long sniper rifle from China leaning on his shoulder. An odd, but impressive sight. The car he used to get there wasn't far off, but it still felt liked he had walked for miles. He hated the snow, but only when he was in it.

"Wally? Waaally? What're you up to?" Erin's voice could be rather grating at times.
"Work on your French, and you'll know." Waldo stated with gritted teeth, opening his eyes. He was sitting in a meditative position (reverse namaste, if you were curious.) on a pillow, deep in thought.
"And by the way. Stop calling me Wally. My name is Waldo. Only people I generally dislike tend to call me Wally. It's closer to my real name, but it's also closer to being obnoxious." He grumbled through gritted teeth.
"Grumpy today, sheesh." Erin remarked, sitting down next to him on the floor. Waldo Where on Earth, Spies Ch. 19in Where on Earth, Spies

Where on Earth, Spies Ch. 17"Nitstsa nochi suete utra. Time for me to get back to work." Carmen mused. She woke up in her own bed, of course. She had enjoyed the evening with Alik. Just a quiet dinner in a nice restaurant, where they talked about their pasts. They didn't want to talk about work, and their work pretty much took over any opportunities to have hobbies, so Carmen talked about back when she was a little girl being raised by her mother after she left the spy business, and Alik talked about how he had gotten quite I'll when he was young, which eventually confined him to his wheelchair for the rest of his life. It never seemed to really bother him, though. He g Where on Earth, Spies Ch. 17in Where on Earth, Spies
