[ His expression is mostly drawn, thoughtful, and grouchy as per usual. ]

I think once Klaus is back in one piece, we should probably start some private family training. Prim, I'd like you to come and if you don't feel comfortable joining, at least maybe you can pick up a few things that might help in a pinch just by watching.

I know we already talked about it a little, Klaus, but I might as well put it out there to the group. Some of us are rusty. Some of us have a lot to learn. Either way, people are going missing at a pretty uncomfortable rate, according to the local paper, and when you add that to the attacks on Supers?

Out of all of us, I'm probably the last one interested in picking up Dad's training to restart the Academy and go out and play superheroes, but it sure as shit wouldn't hurt to at least brush up on the skills. And...if I'm being entirely honest, maybe it wouldn't kill us to try to help find some of the missing locals. There are kids being hit with whatever the hell is happening. A nine-year-old girl isn't the one hurting Supers, but one is among the missing. I don't care about the Academy but...I've got enough blood on my hands. Maybe helping a little bit might wash some of that off.

[ His brow creases a little and he frowns, then looks away briefly before looking back at the camera, shrugging, and sighing. ]

I don't know. Either way, we should train. When are you all free?

Actually, I did. However did you know? Concussions are just so much fun, you should really try one now that you're in the land of the living again.

[ He actually sticks his tongue out at Ben like he's a child. Sorry, Ben, that Klaus is such a monster. ]

But hmm, you're right. But I want Allison to kick his ass. Bring him down a few notches, it'd be such good fun.

[solipsistically]

You two do realize Allison and I can see this, right?

[imprudency]

Yes, and? Your point?

[rumores]

You say that like it’d change anything of what they’re saying.

[solipsistically]

I know, I don't even know why I said it. Reflex, I suppose.

[ilovedirt]

I advocated for you - and I say you're old as dirt with the utmost respect, obviously...as our elder, Five.

[solipsistically]

Obviously. I'll let you get away with that because you're you, but don't make a habit of it.

[ilovedirt]

Scout's honor.

No thanks - perks to being able to ghost still - I don't have to take any blows. And I like my brain cells, I'd rather keep them, I think you've lost enough for the both of us already.

[Ben shrughs, exaggeratedly.]

I mean, they'll probably make it good, but Allison's sort of the underdog anyway considering he's got what a handful of decades on her with fight experience, whether he's used it much lately or not?
