Jennifer
"There's not some conspiracy to keep you in the dark. And there's no *Plan.* Just an intention. We haven't decided on doing anything yet." *She leaned back against the headrest again.*
Brent
*He sighed and rubbed the back of his neck* "F-fine... It would have been nice to know though... Sorry for raising my voice..." *He pursed his lips and decided to follow suit in moving and leaning back against the headrest. Lad was seemingly hoping that mimicing might lighten the mood.* "Does Carlyn know?"
Jennifer
"No. Only me and Sonja talked about it. She wouldn't have even come if not for promising her that we weren't going to let them win. These aren't good people we're working for." *She grunted and closed her eyes, reaching for his hand and gently holding it as she let out a sigh.*
Brent
*He frowned. Not entirely glad yet another person wasnt aware. At least he was in the loop now but he'd have to tell Carlyn later. His frown did falter at her taking his hand in hers. He gave her hand a squeeze and leaned his head on her shoulder* "Hmm they arent... Especially that b-baron"
Jennifer
"I'm selfish. But them? They'd sell their own family for power. They're all evil in their own way and they'll get what's coming to them." *She grumbled a little with her eyes closed.*
Brent
*He chuckled and though her eyes were closed she'd feel him nodding his head* "Hopefully... And dont speak like that. You're fine. A lil r-rough but nice all the s-same"
Jennifer
"Hmpf. I know what i am. No need to be delusional." *She opens her eyes and looks over to him.* "I'm glad the world hasn't ruined you yet, at least."
Brent
*He gave her arm a very light punch. Not intended to hurt but show his disagreement. Though he does then give a comforting rub to where he punched, as if it did hurt.* "And it never will. Worlds nice... Its t-the people who m-make it cruel"
Jennifer
*She huffed.* "Something made people rotten. I don't know what, but it's something. People get too comfortable being cruel."
Brent
*He shrugged and leaned further against her, now half hugging as he looked up at her with a bright smile* "Well as long as we're on the r-right side of things... Im happy"
Jennifer
"I hope we are. I don't know if I am. You are." *She stroked his hair and yawned, clearly tired.*
Brent
"Hmpf... Just s-stick with me and you'll be fine." *He smirked and resisted yawning as well* "Sleepy?"
Jennifer
"Mmh.. Mhm. I'm going to sleep." *She stretched and groaned before slipping under the sheets and getting comfortable.* "Goodnight." *She said before rather quickly falling asleep.*
Brent
"Goodnight..." *He sighed as he kept he head leaned up against the headrest for a while. He didnt immediately sleep. For a while he just sat there in thought. After what felt like an hour he'd eventually lay down, wanting to follow suit and sleep*
