Apples, hm. That's pretty harmless, for the Animus. Let's hope it lasts.

[But it's quiet, distracted -- if only a little. There is the sound of a thunk -- Rei is outside, collecting apples.]

Are we going to do anything for Halloween again, this year?

[And the feed cuts off -- and now, to business.]

Remember how I told you that I would let you know if I didn't trust anyone in the police force?

[She pauses.]

-- I'd like to talk to you. In person, please. I can meet you wherever you want to meet.

Still serious on helping make this city a better place?

[And Rei shows up on his doorstep, with her bushel of apples, sometime later. She's nervous, tense, almost -- because getting caught with this information could result in something far worse than being kicked off of the police force. But Rei had told Castiel she would do something about it and -- well, Roy is the best way to do that.]

[Roy beats Riza to the door and smiles at Rei.]

Are those fresh-picked apples I smell?

[Rei immediately smiles in return, arms around the basket.]

Dragged all the way from the Temple of Heaven.

[ -- that smile might be a little tight. Because no, seriously. She brought them all the way to Roy's before realizing she could have just filled a basket halfway there.]

[He turns and calls out.]

Lieutenant, we have a guest! I believe she would like some fresh-made apple pie. [trollgrin]

[He steps aside so she can enter]

Please, come inside.

[Just keep talking, Roy. Keep talking and she'll beat you. BAKING ISN'T EASY, OKAY.

So she doesn't answer, but makes sure everything is ready and offers Rei a friendly smile when she arrives.]

[offline] HDU ROSE.

[flameandpassion]

Lieutenant, hi --

[And Rei steps inside to set the apples on a table, smiling back at Hawkeye.]

I -- I'm actually good on the pie, I've been making it non-stop since these apples starting falling, but thank you for the offer.
