WHO: Billy Kaplan, Loki, Kate Bishop, John Mandrake, and some girl who goes by "Lizzie"
WHERE: At a stakeout which is actually a confrontation
WHEN: Saturday;
WHAT: Billy and Kate are tired of being lied to, Loki is being a stellar teammate, Mandrake is around to deal with his world stuff, and Lizzie is being confronted.
WARNINGS: Will add as needed

[Billy is there with Mandrake, half of his focus going to keeping the disguise - yes, he picked Teddy, but that's because he is really familiar with Teddy's face okay there is no other reason stop implying there's another reason - on Mandrake up and going, and the other half of his focus looking out at the place where Kate implied the Hornet might be.

The Hornet, of course, not being a real Hornet at all, but being a certain young Asgardian god.

He looks over at Kate, his eyebrows up a bit.]

Here's to hoping this works.

[Billy is about to say you didn't really give us any choice and it's not like we knew Mandrake was your mortal enemy but really, he's not going to force this issue. Nope. He is going to just internalize it and remember it.

For you know.

Later.]

Hey, it's up to you.

I think we'll go around in circles if we drag this out anymore. Kate?

[selfequipped]

You tricked us, manipulated us, and we accidentally exposed you to your enemy. Please stop making it into what it wasn't. As far as we knew, you were a threat. [After all, no one uses and manipulates people without good reason. And Billy did loudly announce his status of power to everyone.

And though Kate would have recommended that he didn't do that last bit, she's used to Billy's show of theatrics. (Even if they were confusing at first.]

But you can think about it. Billy's right, you're obviously planning on sending us in circles until you think about it first.

[ Kitty at least smiles, and the smile is at least apologetic. It's a quiet little you've got me pegged quirk of the lips, and she says: ]

Yeah. Sorry. I really haven't got anything else to give you until I do.

[ And I need to take a moment to go feel sick in a corner for an hour or so is something she is not, under any circumstances, going to add. Because a girl's got to keep a little of her pride. ]

Anyway. It was nice meeting the two of you in person.

[Billy raises a hand.]

Sure. Pleasure's ours, all that.

[He extends his other hand to Kate]

Ready to go?

[Because hell yes they are making an exit.]

[selfequipped]

Yeah, it was nice.

[If far more tension-filled than either of them bargained for. Kate reaches out to take Billy's hand.]

Let's go.
