Entry tags:
[Open]
Characters: Dinah Lance and OPEN
Date: July, all after Clueventure
Location: Wood Sector, and wherever you need her.
Situation: There are ideas and commitments that Dinah started before being distracted by detective work. Now she intends to follow up on them.
Warnings/Rating: Blood, wounds in the Arthur thread.
I started with prose, but will switch to action if you'd like.
General Starter: She found it in the wood sector, a courtyard formed by four trees growing from each corner, growing and intertwining together above, walled by hedges that have been growing out since the last master left. As soon as she had a spare morning and the presence of mind to do so, it is here Dinah returns.
She keeps the name and cleans first the sign painted so neatly in Chinese: “The Jade School of Kung Fu, overseen by Grand Master Shifu.” She doesn't know what happened to the Grand Master, but a dojo cannot be left unused, and she plans to honor this Master she never met by returning his space to the use it was intended.
She sent messages to the people she knew were interested in training with her, to let them know where they could be found, then she set about trimming the hedges, sweeping the building and the courtyard, and transforming it into a usable dojo again.

He needed to see it, but she also needed to show it to him. Rightly or wrongly, Dinah considers him to be their link to Asti: his guardian in a way. Anything that concerns the turtle concerns all of them, but Arthur remains the best person to deal with that link. Dinah's more ground level, she always has been.
She stands up, looking around the room.
"I don't know if there's anything more to show you. This is all there is, now."

He nods once, glancing one last time at where the poison was injected before he rises. "We should get out of the homeowner's hair then. Want to go for a drink? I feel like I could use one."

"A drink sounds great," she says. "I know this adorable little bar just a short walk from here."
And she definitely could do with one.

It's just been one of those months. At least now the tide seems to have turned for the better.
