"Won't say a word," he promised, leaning back casually on his elbows as he waited to see whether the eternally curious Risk could actually bring himself to walk up those stairs.

Risk nodded, surprisingly believing Goblin. He slowly inched towards the door, a bit sad he wasn't invited to this so-called meeting.
"So, uh, that's it? No more help from me?" asked Risk, turning around once he reached the door.

"Well," Goblin said super casually, pretending to rummage through the files in his box, "you're a cop with access to all those criminal records. You used to run with the gang that we'll be going up against. You're basically the most useful person who's offered any help so far. But you're all settled up with Wraith and me, and I'm running out of favors to offer, so..." He shrugged again, pulling out a random file and examining it.

Risk was itching to get in on the action. Plus, he'd always wanted to get back to Monk Eastman after the childhood he'd had. They ruined him and his relationship with his family. However, since Goblin was making offers...
"What if I did just for the heck of it?"

Goblin finally looked up at him, and grinned just a little bit smugly. "Then I'd suggest you pull up a crate and help me turn a girl who bakes delicious brownies and a girl who collects depressing newspaper articles into the other half of a first-rate crack team."

"Huh, this'll be interesting," muttered Risk, making his way back inside and turning over a crate to take a seat.

Script headed down the basement stairs, calling out softly. "Hello..?" In her hands was a plate of fresh cookies --chocolate chip-- still warm. "Sebastian..?"

He smiled at the sound of her voice, stood up, and kissed her, not even noticing the plate till he pulled away. "You brought cookies," he said with a wry smile...just as the mangy black cat crept out from under the stairs and meowed at him. This was going to be the strangest secret meeting ever.
Turning to Risk, he added, "This is Maggie, or Script. This is Risk," he told Script simply, leaving it up to Risk to decide how much of his identity he wanted to divulge. "And now we're just waiting for Sapphy."

She smiled and kissed Goblin back, then turned to wave at Risk. "Hi. And there's more in the kitchen. I was nervous and got a little carried away..." She set the plate down on a crate.

"Wow, uh, thanks," said Risk, taking a cookie. He didn't know that these kinds of meetings had snacks... or that Goblin had a girl. Boy, was he learning so much.

Goblin pulled up a crate for her and sat down again. Predictably, the cat jumped up beside him and made itself comfortable. "So have I mentioned this is really dangerous and you should reconsider?" he asked Script, taking a cookie and munching it. "'Cause that's only getting clearer by the minute." He glanced at Risk, thinking of what they'd just learned, though he would wait till Sapphy was here to explain it all.

She sighed, pushing hair out of her eyes. "Well, what do you expect me to do? Just let you waltz around like some damn vigilante superhero while you leave me home to worry all night?"

Risk ate his cookie quietly (and contently) as he watched the two talk. "So, uh, how long have you two been together?" he asked curiously.
