Hogwarts AU: New York City
It's been days.
She doesn't know how many. But if must have been days. There's been food, there's been the occasional sleep.
Not enough of either.
Dinah has told them... she can't remember right now quite what she has told them, but it feels like she's told them everything. Like there's nothing in her lefty to tell them. She'd tell them more, if they asked her.
She gave up trying to escape a long time ago. She gave up hoping for a rescue not long after.
Now she's just waiting, and hoping it ends soon.

She turns her head away from Leo and leaves him to himself. Before they actually go out, she'll probably drop a sleep charm on him so he gets some rest, but right now they've got work to do.
"You do for defence, I'll go for stealth?"
no subject
"That'll work, but...we're going to need to double up because there's a whole mess of wards these Foot guys have that'll cut the usual stuff up like wet tissue paper.
Seriously Renee, these guys are no joke."
no subject
"Mike?"
no subject
"...yeeaah?"
no subject
"We're in trouble, aren't we?"
no subject
"...yeah, we really kind of are."
The casting stops, and he turns to look towards her.
"You know, you...you don't have to do this. Right? I mean, this is...if you wanted out no one would judge you."
no subject
And that's that, really.
"If I asked you to do something, would you say I was being morbid and tell me to shut the hell up?"
no subject
"I'd do anything for you, you know that. Morbid or not. And well...I always reserve the right to tell you to shut the hell up."
no subject
She takes a breath.
"You lie to my family, okay? Tell them you were my boyfriend and that we were the straightest of straight couples that ever didn't have sex because we're still just kids."
no subject
"I promise. We were waiting for marriage. I swear."
Until it isn't.
"If I die? Will you tell them I'm really at seminary because I've decided to be a priest."
no subject
Because his brothers will know.
"Yeah, I'll tell them that. The kids at school, too. I'm sure they'll believe that."

Renee casts another spell, and steps back, tapping her wand against her teeth recklessly.
"Okay, you think we can do this Fidelius thing? Or too risky to try?"
She's read about it, but never tried it, and it's ridiculously advanced.
no subject
"Honestly? Yes. Eventually. If we'd known about it a year ago when we started planning our return to New York? We'd be golden right now."
no subject
Renee shakes her head, and decides that if she's going to die, it's not going to be because she exploded trying to do a spell that isn't even Hogwarts level. She adds another layer of obfuscation and figures that should do it.
She steps back, nudging her shoulder against Mike's.
"Now what?"

"Poor guy."

no subject
"I suspected that he and Dinah were up to something, but..." He sighs.
no subject
"Yeah."
Renee offers a tired, half hearted smirk. "Didn't know she had it in her, a thing for bad boys."
no subject
"Leo? A bad boy? I mean, suuuuure, I guess he is if you're going to call a kid kicked out of a boarding school for using an Unforgivable against a classmate a Bad Boy. But...he was being a hero when he did it, so I hardly think that counts," he rolls his eyes.
"Back before our Mom died? Leo wasn't anywhere near this reckless. He left that sort of stuff to the experts." Namely Mike and Raph.

His eyes fly wide when he realizes what he's said.
"Does," he corrects.
no subject
"Does," she agrees glumly. "Definitely 'does.'"
