    Being cut out of an active pursuit twisted her nerve, and Ivy bashed a fist against the steering wheel before compiling and trailing the suspect at a safer distance. In her hot-hotheadedness she failed to realize that she was still just a junior detective, with no real power of arrest, let alone...

    Everything was happening quickly, and Ivy didn't even have time to get out of the driver's seat when the suspects barged out. From the adrenaline rush of seeing the man lying on the ground to the vehicular maneuver by their lead instructor, Ivy's first instinct was to pursue . Then, she...

    Ivy was driving the second SUV, following close behind @Jason West and @Nace Bilby. The cars were moving fast, but with the roads clear it was an easy drive. Scenic as well, with the sun bleached Mojave blurring by. She glanced back to the third SUV with @Chase Devineaux at the wheel and @Sophie...

    Q & A Weapon of Choice?

    It's going to always be hand-to-hand combat for Ivy. She is trained in less than lethal methods and (in a homage to 90's cartoons) prefers not to use firearms.

    I have missed a few of these since I last checked this thread. They are all so amazing. You have a way with selecting the right quotes and making the artwork.

    They were an odd group of different ages, but lunch seemed to cohesively bring the group together. Good food, especially burritos, had a way of doing that. Ivy listened carefully to what @Zack and @Julie Justice had to say. In a world when crimes were more likely to be tweeted about before...

    Q & A Feeling Lucky?

    In celebration of March (and Saint Patrick's Day in particular) we have a character question about luck. What does luck mean to your character? Do they consider themselves lucky or unlucky? Is there a specific incident that defines that for them? For Ivy: She considers herself very lucky...

    Wow, this one is good. I almost forgot about Patty's 'origin story' until I read this.

    Tides of Deception

    I like the back and forth between Tanya and Lee. Nice to see the S.T.U.N. systems making a cameo too.

    The burritos were well worth the trip. As lunch went on, she observed a few things: Just as he had been this morning, Jason West was charitable when it came to food, Zack, seemed to have a bottomless stomach, their instructor Joe Kerr left the 'party' early to place a few calls outside, and...

    I'm wondering why there has been no Tolkien here yet. Before someone calls dishonor on us all, here's a contribution: “All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

    Update: It's come to my attention that some of @Jade's answers were delayed from Thursday 19th, February until now. Please note that she was the first who guessed the 'Easter' part of the peeps clue correctly, and Cote d'Ivore on the s'mores question.

Kat also said she was going to clean out the 9th floor. Bruce let Hines know about it " That was told to me by ma a couple hours ago... I don't really care who knows my last name.

    Hey @Tenchi Masaki btw I did save my password after my last bout of computer trouble. This time however I saved the wrong password so. As for Jon Eckart, I DO use Chrome browser the problem is when we I get on another computer the passwords aren't stored. That's my current problem. So I'm either gonna make a new account or figure something out 'cause I'm not bothering boss man :D :D

They have to wait up to 10 days to see what the "appeal officer" says... but they might have something being that they were never caught smoking, it was just that there was smoke smelled near their door ))

Moving stuff in is gonna be a struggle (wall outside main door is like a 60-degree angle)... big desk (mine), big entertainment center (the folks), "things" are gonna be weird (no privacy). The folks want it (gas stove in an apartment, claw-foot bathtub)... not all of our stuff comes apart nicely))
