Beaudry grinned. "Yeah, I, uh, I kind of picked up on that."
Daws chuckled and glanced at Vance. "I think we need to work on our subtlety, Jerod."

"You know me and subtlety," Vance retorted.
Then he turned to the two men who had chosen to remain masked. "If you're uncomfortable, you boys can clear out. We've got more than enough of a full house here."
With murmured agreements, the pair left, and Vance turned to his remaining men. "I'll probably send a few more of you home in a little while."
He glanced at Daws. "Whether or not you're staying here tonight, if you're thinking about seeing the Bat tomorrow, maybe you'd better get some rest."

"Yeah, I imagine you're probably right. Hate to go in without getting my beauty sleep first." Daws shrugged.
"I guess there's no real reason for me to stay, except to keep the rest of you company -- and I'm not very good company when I'm asleep." She added with a grin.

Proteus stood up. "I think I'm finished for tonight, myself. I want to get some sleep--I don't know how long I'll have to play my part tomorrow, so I'd better be rested up."
"We've got the next room over, too," Vance said. He took a key from his pocket, and tossed it to the shapeshifter. "You can crash there. Nobody'll bother you."
Then the Major turned to Daws, and fondly squeezed her shoulder. "Alright, Nate can take you back to the city. Drop in for breakfast if you want--I'll be sending Handy out for food in the morning, before Proteus takes off."

"Sounds good." Daws gave Vance's ribs a quick squeeze and then turned to Beaudry, holding out her hand. "I'm glad this all worked out."
Beaudry grinned somewhat hesitantly and shook Daws' hand. "Yeah. Me too."

"Great. I'll be back in a little bit, sir." Nate gave his father a small salute, then glanced at Daws, and headed for the door.

Daws nodded to Proteus and the others, then followed Nate out of the hotel room to the car.

Vance turned to Beaudry with a small smile. "You might as well bed down. I'm afraid this place isn't much--but if we need to keep you out of sight for long, we'll move to someplace nicer tomorrow night."

Beaudry shrugged good-naturedly. "Hey, you guys saw my apartment. This isn't that much of a step down."
He shifted to his feet and stretched. "Alright, then. Uh. . . g'night, I guess."
