Awkward Meeting with Lee
As Basil and Cherie walked to Barrage's office, with Murder 2.0 in Basil's hands, they came across Lee in the hallway. What was her doing out of detention? How did he get out? Those were all wonderfully legitimate questions!
At the sign of Murder 2.0, Lee raised an eyebrow in question and looked kind of freaked out. "What is that?"
"Murder 2.0." stated Basil. "Please take him, I don't want him, I don't want to have anything to do with a bird named after a bird that is named after a crime." He then held the bird up to Lee's face. "Take him! Take him!" At this point he was shaking the bird, who started giving an annoying cry in protest that it stopped being shaken!
"Ignore him, Lee." Cherie shook her head and placed a hand on Basil's shoulder. "You know how he feels about birds. Anyway, what are you doing out of detention? How did you get out?"
"I have to get to a meeting with Lynch, Biffy got me out." Lee's explanation was brief but he didn't know much or how little time he had before Holger got back. "Holger is… working on something."
"Working on something?" Basil looked at Murder 2.0. "Do you hear that? Holger is working on something. Lee, in my time since coming to this school, they are two lunatics that I can name, one being a good friend of mine, the other being Lynch."
Cherie blinked. "You consider Holger a lunatic?"
"In the most positive meaning o' the word of course!" stated Basil. That was confusing, Lee and Cherie weren't even aware that there could be a positive meaning for the word lunatic. "What does he intend to do, fly off the roof with cardboard wings?"
"You just described Holger with that question." Commented Lee, snarky as ever. "That is something he would do but I'm certain that he is not going to do that since his plan involves a hose."
"Like a garden hose?"
"Well, I doubt he'd be able to get a fire hose!"
The thought of Holger stealing a fire hose was bizarrely amusing. Basil chuckled and then Murder 2.0 bit him on the finger!
