Forgive, O Lord,
my little jokes on thee...

"Very much so." Leo responded.

"It was a lot of small pieces of damage." he told her.

"Heck, I'm almost DONE." he then boasted.

"Should have these functional again in a minute or so." he declared confidently.

"What about your phone?" he asked.

"How's THAT faring?"

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Desiree just shrugged.

"It's works." She told him honestly.

Damaged though, of course. I'm amazed it's still functional, if I'm being honest. I thought for certain dhe would have tracked it completely. She signed as she grabbed her ohine and set it down on the bed, so he could take it to check it over if he wanted.

Leo looked over to the phone and grimaced.

"Eugh." he mumbled.

"Right, I'll look at that after." he told her.

And, after a little over a minute more of tinkering and such, he closed the headphones, secured where he'd been working, and handed them over towards her, a confident smile on his face.

"Try 'em on, give 'em a whirl." he said as she accepted them.

"Let me know if you hear static or things are more muted or whatever." he added, grabbing her phone and looking it over.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Desiree accepted the headset before checking it over. She didn't say nything before slipping it onto her head, wondering if the fit was right and th elike. Thankfully, it was. As she powered it on, there was an initial bit of static, but that wasn't anything super unusual, before it faded.

All right, say sometihng. She signed after tapping on his elbow to get his attention.

Leo looked at her, and nodded.

He then thought for a moment, and turned his head so she wouldn't be able to read his lips.

"This is a test." he responded.

"If you can hear me, then repeat this statement." he told her, clearing his throat.

"I understand that you do this out of the kindness of your heart, Leo, and that I do not need to pay you back in the slightest." he stated, before turning around and smirking slightly at her.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"Nice try." was all Desiree said.

"I am not going to repeat that, because I do want to pay you back." She added

"So y-yeah. Nice try."

Leo was silent, before groaning.

"Uuuuuugh." he muttered.

"Fiiiiiiiiiine." he said in a drawn out tone.

"Seems like the work fine, though?" he asked.

"No static or weird muting or anything?" he asked further.

"Or are they pretty much back up to snuff?"

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"Yeah. They seem all right." She answered honestly.

"Not perfect, but nothing bad. It's ok. Thank you so much." She added with a soft smile.

"You never have to apologise for that." Leo said, before looking over the phone, and sighing.

"I can repair it, but... something tells me that this damage might be the damage that makes your phone teeter on the edge of dying permanently." he told her, shaking his head.

"I have some spare phones at home." he continued.

"If you want, back up all your important stuff to your card, and I'll move it on over to another phone." he offered.

"And yes, I'll make the tweaks so it syncs with your headphones."

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"I appreciate it." Desiree Said after a moment or two, and he could clearly hear the truth in that statement

"Anyway, let's get out to the other room." She added, motioning toward the door in question. After he'd agreed, they made their wya out of her bedroom and sat on what remained of the couch. It wasn't completely demolished, thankfully, but was definitely not in a good shape anymore.

Leo handed her, her phone back and started to make sure everything she wanted to keep was transferring to her SD card.

"I'm not worried about a new phone, either. Just... if this one works, I'm ok with this slightly beaten up thing."

"....hm." Leo mumbled.

"Well, I'm going to prepare a replacement, anyway." he said.

"Seriously, that thing might be one more accident away from conking out permanently." he warned.

"So just know that I AM going to prep a replacement for you." he stated.

He then just sighed, and looked around her apartment.

"....so... what now for you?" he asked.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Desiree didn't say anything for a moment before sighing.

"I... haven't quite figured that out yet." She admitted after a couple of seconds.

"I obviously c-c-can't stay here." She then said. "And J-j-j-.... J has offered to let me stay there." She added.

"But... I just.. I dunno."

Leo pondered what she said, before shaking his head.

"I agree. Here is no longer safe." he said.

"And you KNOW you are welcome to stay with Nakia and I. We've made that VERY clear." he told her.

"...however, I ALSO know that you have your reservations, as it is SO far removed from here." he then admitted. "Which is understandable." he continued.

"That being said, it's not safe for you to be here, or a shelter, or anything like that." he went on. "And you sure as HELL can't stay in a hotel or motel. Too expensive." he reasoned.

"It seems like your only options are with me and Nakia, or with that Jaden fella." he concluded.

"And do you trust him?"

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"Goth Girl and the Fish are options too." Desiree commented, referring to Rene and Kalin. However, she also knew that they were a pair that she would likely get in the way of. They cared immensely for her, but both were also vey busy And she was allergic to Rene, in essence.

"And.. maybe?" She asked in response to Leo's question about her trusting Jaden.

"He.. he's who I w-went to when I was first attacked." she added.

"He did make sure I didn't die, and Rene vouched for him." She added, pausing.

"I just don't want to be in the way, or cause roblems with him." She finished, not saying Why she thought she might be a problem.

"Right, forgot about them." Leo admitted. "But I know you, and you'd be constantly worried about getting in their way." he said. "Plus... we both know your allergies would be a constant concern." he lamented.

"And it sounds like he's a solid guy. I'm sure he wouldn't have offered if you would be an imposition." he assured her.

"So if you think you can trust him, then that's a big step." he said.

"However, his place." he went on.

"Do you think it's secure enough to protect you from... them?" he inquired.

...and I'll forgive thy

"That's the thing, I don't know." Desiree answered honestly.

"I mean, I'm reasonably certain they can get to me wherever I am, but he has told me that he has far more warding around his suite than I could get here." She added after a few seconds.

"And, along with that, he's.... Well, he has a buff that would give him one hell of a boost over them. Enough so that we'd have an early warning that they are coming."

Leo looked confused for a moment, but before he could say anything, her phone rang. It was Jaden.

"Yeah, hi." Jaden said when she answered.

"Can you confirm that I'm me, and I'm welcome here at your apartment?" he asked, before she heard minor fumbling, and could then tell that she was on speakerphone now.

"Yo." the 'guard' said. "This guy's cool, Ms. McCormick?" he asked.

"He is." Desiree confirmed.

"Good enough for me." the man responded, as Jaden took the line again.

"Be up in a minute." he told her.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"I will see you soon, then."] Desiree said. After all was sad and done, she hunt=g up, sighing lightly.

"Blondie is on his way back upstairs." She told Leo after she hung up the phone.

"Have I ever told you I hate names, by the way? They always trip me up. It's th eain thing that does now."

Leo chuckled lightly.

"I've seen you get frustrated over them." he said. "So it's... heavily implied." he told her. "But you seem to be getting better and better with your speech overall." he commented."And that's really awesome." he added with a smile, as there was a knock on her door.

"It's me!" Jaden called in.

"C-c-come in!" Desiree called back.

After some minor fumbling, they heard the door open and shut, and Jaden came into view, two plastic bags on his wrists, with paper take-away bags inside them, and a large smoothie in one of his hands.

"...that smells..." Leo mumbled with a sniff. "...that what I THINK it is...?" he asked.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Desiree just laughed.

"Thank you." She said as she accepted the smoothie.

"I appreciate it" She added, pausing slightly.

"Where?" She asked, her voice curious.
