004: Release the hounds! [IC | Open]

[hawkeyowa]

Stuck to random surfaces around HQ and taped on doors all over are flyers, hastily typed up and scribbled on. At the source of it all is one very worried Iowan. He'll just be dashing around the place with a huge butterfly net and binoculars, like it'll help. You can all thank Gabe's drunkenness for the shenanigans about to take place.



[ooc: Yep, Mitch and Maddie have been set free (along with Lou's doggie, Jake). Feel free to join the hunt, or just sit around and watch what should be fun times. 8Db]

Jack? What are ya doing? Going elephant hunting?

[hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com]

Oh, lookin' for my dog and my ferret. Wanna help?

[hoosier-state.livejournal.com]

Well... the ferret should be easy enough to find... but what kinda dog?

[hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com]

Uh, German Shepherd husky mix. He's huge so he's hard ta miss.

[hoosier-state.livejournal.com]

[Shudders. He no longer has a crow to worry about, but big dogs still make him nervous.]

Does he bite?

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

He stares at the poster, reading it.

Heya Will!

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

He turns to look at him confused.
Heya Jack... Is this yers?

[hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah. Gabe let them out when he was all drunk and whatever so I have no idea where they could've gotten off to.

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

He nods slowly, not quite understanding the hunting party. His dogs roam free.
Oh... ah help yer ferret's alrigh'.

[Stalking the halls, Court wiggles a can of cat treats in one hand. She doesn't even notice Jack until she walks face-first into him, so intent is she on finding her kitty.]

Oh, hi there!

[stephenkingland.livejournal.com]

[Oops. She backpedals a few steps, looking at him. How embarrassing...]

Uh, hey. Listen, y'ain't seen a big ol' Maine coon cat runnin' around? Someone let him out t'other day and now I can't find him...

[hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com]

Nah, sorry. I've been lookin' for my dog and my ferret so can't say I have.

[stephenkingland.livejournal.com]

Oh, y'r pets're out too? Sorry t'hear that, mister. Maybe we c'n find them t'gether?

[gateway2thewest.livejournal.com]

Humm...

Just what kind of reward are we talking about here, G?

[hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com]

Uh, money I guess? Or cornbread. Like, a month's supply of cornbread.

[gateway2thewest.livejournal.com]

Dad already keeps me loaded on the cornbread actually.
You're Iowa, right? The cash reward can't be that big then...

[She's unconsciously spinning the pencil (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6jStTAXcZo) she's holding with one hand while she thinks]

Tell you what, how about an exchange?

I might have seen a ferret hopping around somewhere earlier... If you can give me a little inside info then I think we might be able to help each other out.

[hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com]

Dad? Who's yer dad?

[]

Oh? What kind of inside info?

[gateway2thewest.livejournal.com]

[Is he staring at her chest or her pencil spinning? Either way he's being distracted. Oh, goodie! This might be easier than she thought...]

Missouri is my dad. He dragged me back here after the All-Star game. Oh, it doesn't mean anything in particular...

[Smiles innocently and spins her pencil a little faster.]

What kind of info? O-oh, you know...the usual kind. What's happening, anything going on, anyone making any back room deals... That kind of thing. If you have any dirt on Chicago that's worth a lot to me!

[badgerbadassus.livejournal.com]

[ Is staring a long time at the pictures of these animals. These look kind of familiar, he swears he seen them before... ]

...How much of a reward are we talkin'?

[hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com]

[]

Not for you. You're the one that let them out in the first place.

[badgerbadassus.livejournal.com]

... Well that's not fair, ya know?

[hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com]

Not fair? You let 'em out and puked on my floor! I don't so much care about the puke but Maddie could be anywhere! And Mitch...well, with Jake out, there's obviously a problem there.

[badgerbadassus.livejournal.com]

... What's wrong with puppies?
