Ordinary Days

[Dracos]

Dracos idly switches back, ~Elbereth.~

[Brian]

...damn.  I have to work with an overbearing asshole.  You get the vague impression that he didn't mean that thought for you.  Oh, he says, adding what you suspect is false cheer to the thoughts. Well, that's different.  Sure, we can work together.  I'll help you if I can live.

[Dracos]

~As I said, I don't care whether you help me or not.  I care that you promise you won't stab us in the back.  If you help us alongside, that's all well and good.  We'd appreciate it.  Now, first off, can you get out of your cuffs without help or do we need to plan to get you out of them?~

Dracos

[Brian]

Okay, okay.  Just only talk when you have orders to give.  I have to focus.  And I can get myself out of the cuffs, but the guard's watching, which will make things inconvenient.

[Dracos]

~That makes things a lot easier.  We'll see what we can do.~

"Hum..."  Dracos idly switched over to Huitzil.

~Okay, he can get out of his own cuffs.  That leaves less for us to plan out.  Now, any thoughts on dealing with the guard in the room with him?~

Dracos

[Huitzil]

<I don't suppose your psychical powers cam make him think he heard something, or make him have to take a shit, can they?>

[Ginrai]

Ginrai takes in a deep breath of fresh air as he stares out at the sky, idly wondering what the hell his two friends are up to at the moment.

[Brian]

Parthipan: Your friends are probably completely psychotic.  Its at times like this the ability to hide in a Porta-Pet box is much more fun than dealing with the undoubted mental strain of TK or psychic powers.

Philip: While you might be able to plant a suggestion, you doubt you'd have the ability to effect his mind directly enough to accomplish anything other than making him suspicous.

Paul: If you don't hurry back to the Embassy, you're going to miss the next episode of Monk.

[Huitzil]

Paul turns on the in-room TV, should it exist, and starts flipping channels in the slim hope they have sattelite TV here.

To Drac, he notes, <Even if he can get out of his cuffs, we might not have the time to do it. We could get a mirror -- the smallest one we could find, preferably like those ones dentists use, or a shaving mirror -- and use it to peer into the kid's room undetected. Then the next time the guard uses the toilet or leaves the room, we rush in and barricade the doors, then carry out the rest of the plan -- they will just think that the kid blocked the doors himself.>

<Of course, that won't work if there's a security camera in the room. Any way of finding out?>

[Brian]

No satellite television here.  But you do find a 'raw' Jerry Lewis telethon.

[Dracos]

~I know this.  But we handle problems one at a time.  No, I can't do suggestions.  As far as security cameras go, only our eyes which aren't quite good enough.  Personally, I'm going to assume they are there.  If only because if I was a hospital with terrorists and I had ANY rooms whatsoever that had security cameras in them, I'd stick the terrorists in the rooms where they can be double-watched by that twenty-four/seven.  In fact, I'd also do that with Ginrai to help give protection against him just vanishing or getting kidnapped or any number of problems which while unlikely would be a major political blackeye. Hum... And alarms...~

Dracos idly glances over at the glass door of the BCK's room.  He checks the four corners, looking for the tell-tale tiny box that indicates an alarm sensor triggered by door opening distance.

Dracos

[Brian]

You don't see any aluminum squares or wires to indicate alarm systems anywhere.

[Dracos]

~Hum, there's no alarms on the door.  Odd.  Well, one less thing to worry about.  Hmm, wonder what would happen if we set off the fire alarm.  Current thought, tomorrow, you stay out front in the car.  Use your telekinesis to swat a fire alarm, hopefully setting it off, on our signal.  We'll wait here for the guard to be distracted and give you the signal to add another distraction once we are getting him out of the room.  The place will be filled with people outside from the fire alarm, and he should be able to just sneak off in the crowds.~

Dracos

[Huitzil]

<I dunno, if you say so... I just think that whatever we do should fake out the Cabal guys.>

[Dracos]

~*Sense of confusion* ...What cabal guys?  You really don't seriously think they bothered to have every cop around here be there own men when it's totally and completely unnecessary to successfully see these guys all in a max security prison for the rest of their lives.~
