Mercenaries at the door

[mitochondriaaya]

Sometimes a man simply had to check in on his girls. They'd run a mission in Canada and the college was ENTIRELY on the way back after all...and the team wanted to see the girls too and...

...and Nevada couldn't really shake their last letter from his head. The girls were living with some unvetted young men and that could prove problematic. The helicopter set down in on the school pad (usually used for medivac units) and Nevada swung to the ground, waving off one of the school aides coming out to greet him,

He had an address. And a mission.

And after a quick run, well, a door to knock on. The pair of mercs that had followed him chuckled at the politeness but hey, it never hurt right?

"Carnivorous kids," Aya chuckled. "We are duly warned if we ever get any katzu families in the company."

"They will hunt as soon as they can crawl." Braig said, leaning up to kiss Dilan's fluffy cheek.

"And they'll learn to crawl fast because otherwise all the tasty things are teasing them?" Aya guessed cheerfully.

"I'd like some katzu families in the company," Nevada admitted. "But we get lone hunters more than anything."

"You just want more families in general," Aya countered.

"Yeah, have to be more settled for that." Maya added.

"Pretty much." Dilan said, blushing a bit.

"Families like to stay near the Clans." Braig said, with a small shrug, "It's rare to find them anywhere."

[mitochondriaaya]

"Yeah," Nevada sighed. Still, it was a thought. Maybe some day. He did have leaning toward a small, mercenary country most days.

Eventually.

"You could offer perks for married couples." Dilan offered, shyly, "Not like money perks? But...if you have a biologist or something who would work on fertility issues you might be able to attract people who want to be parents, but aren't."

"That's a good idea, dude." Braig said, approvingly.

Hello Dilan you did something interesting. Nevada's smile was a touch feral but it was real. "I'll keep that in mind," he noted mildly. "It's a good idea and I will look into it." Into biologists at any rate.

Or have the girls look into it.

The girls eyed their uncle, curious, then shrugged.

He did that. Just usually not when he meant to. Information offered, he tilted his head back towards the menu and resumed deciding what to eat.
