Cast of Characters: Amanda Waller, Spiral, Wade Wilson




Amanda Waller has posed:
Waller is said to be a patient woman. Very, very patient.. Unless someone tries that patience of hers. It's when she turns deadly and bodies start floating up the river. And today ..., uff if she didn't have that want to strangle someone.. First the knowledge that SHIELD had been prowling about one of DEO's labs, then that her prison may have been used as some kind of .., movie set? Or at least that some unknown had been in Belle Reve, and now wasn't anymore. It meant a security breach..

But Waller was a practical woman, and nothing like taking care of two problems in one go. So guards are sent to meet up with Spiral while she is at the cantina. They know better than to be rough or threaten her but one of them says in a firm voice.

"The Director wants to see you." the tone seeming to imply he wants the woman to follow him.

And no, not her friend that lost the bet the other day. That one is still plotting revenge!

Spiral has posed:
Spiral just finishing off the gumbo happily, and then the guards actually TALK to her. She looks up at them, a bit surprised. And she blinks, one hand reaching up to adjust her weird samurai helmet.

Best behaviour. She leaves her spoon in the empty bowl.

She gets up slowly, and even forces her arms to hang down passively at her sides, where they knock against each other when she moves like weird fleshy wind chimes, and smiles her most pleasant smile. "Of course. Lead the way, and I will follow.". The top hand gestures for what she presumes is the exit they are taking. She will even walk through the prison like a normal person!

Amanda Waller has posed:
The lead guard eyes Spiral suspiciously. Really, these super crooks always have one up their sleeve! Or in this case, their six sleeves. He grunts as the woman starts to follow and so he, along with four other guards lead the way through the corridors and to an elevator..

The trip doesn't take too long and eventually Spiral is being brought in to that same room of before, white walls, no furniture or adornments besides the table in the middle of the room and a rather frowny-looking Waller sitting down and holding her temples with both hands, eyes closed. Asleep?

Most likely not as she speaks soon after. "Spiral." the tone neutral. "Come in." the eyes open even if she doesn't get up to her feet.

"First, I would like to ask if you have anything to report about your stay here in our fine facilities?"

Spiral has posed:
Spiral's arms are bare! No sleeves. Just bracelets and things like that. She follows along obediently enough, takes the elevator like a normal person with the guards - she's actually starting to get a bit bored now, and taps one foot. It's just as well she has her 'vat grown' body, it's not like she ever does any walking to keep fit, just the odd dance move.

She has the distinct feeling of being in Mojo's command room when he's at his most angry. When he's all silent, rather than ranting - pretty rare, but if things get that bad, she's about to be giving the boot.

"Um. The food is very nice." she says after some consideration. "And I quite like it here. And am looking forward to doing my second operation with the team.". She tries on her most brilliant smile.

Amanda Waller has posed:
Good thing there was no elevator music in said elevator so things didn't have to get homicidal! And while Waller may have some similarities to Mojo when angry hers seems to be not one that makes her go into a rant, but get sharper and choose her moments to strike. "Yes, I have been told you enjoy our gumbo." she leans back on her chair, fingers steepling together on her front.

"We have been good hosts, have we not? But as you know there is little that escapes me here." A gesture with one hand. "Including bringing some unknown people into Belle Reve? Anything you'd like to tell me about that?"

There is even a faint smile that appears on her lips. It's not a brilliant or happy one though. More like someone circling over prey.

Spiral has posed:
Spiral almost looks guilty. How to explain such deeds to someone like Waller? Sometimes she can barely explain it to herself. "That mutant attacked me, and I wanted a candidate for a prison shanking scene because Harley mentioned any good prison drama had a shanking scene. So... I wasn't expecting her to get out of the shower.".

"The bike wasn't from the prison." she says helpfully. She stole that from somewhere else while Slips was making her way through the prison. "And I kept an eye on her until she unfortunately escaped.". She wonders just how many cameras are in this place. "I am.... keeping it simple." she says helpfully.

Extradimensional TV obsessives are kept out of the story!

Amanda Waller has posed:
"Tell me more about this mutant." Is what Waller then asks, picking on the few little things that are of actual matter or interest to her. The story itself? She doesn't seem the type of woman to like soap operas much, or TV plots! Or ..., shanking scenes in the shower...

She gets up to her feet, her hands resting together behind her and she takes a step to the side. "You do realize I was quite serious when I said this place is to be kept out from .., prying eyes.." yes, she even smirks.

"Someone like her could be of use to us, don't you agree?"

Spiral has posed:
Spiral shrugs her many arms. "I don't know anything about her, really. Or even if she is female in truth. She changed her shape several times." she notes. "She did not turn into her original form when I stripped her abilities, merely stopped her from changing again.".

"She would probably be useful to you." Spiral admits, her gaze starting to wander a bit, looking over the guards briefly. Her arms are a bit less limp, the middle ones folding over her middle as per usual. "But she is gone now, and with her powers she will be hard to find.".

"I'm sure she didn't see anything other than a normal looking prison." she adds.

Amanda Waller has posed:
Amanda squints her gaze back at Spiral. Does she believe all she is saying? Maybe not. But she is satisfied.., at least for now. "A pity that you do not know her. Find that mutant and recruit them for our side and I can assure you that I'd be most pleased with you. And no, not simply offering my eternal gratitude." her eyes rolling briefly.

Her shoulders rise up in a shrug and she casts a look to the door, again looking displeased as she crooks the side of her mouth a touch, perhaps waiting for someone to arrive.

"Yet my calling you here has another reason. The squad has a new job to do." she reaches to a couple of folders on the table and tosses them to the edge of the table. "Take a look while we wait for one of the other members to arrive." She clearly isn't the type of people that likes those who get late to meetings!

Spiral has posed:
Spiral looks nonplussed. She already has the gumbo! What else can Waller give her that she wants? Seems to her like much bargaining got used up to get her in here at all, let alone all meek, arms down. She does allow herself a lil smirk, though, thinking about it for a moment.

She glances over at the door when Waller does, and blinks again, her lower arms going to her hips, slowly getting more normal now she's not in trouble. "A job? What now? Another mafia idiot?" she asks. One middle arm unwraps to pick up one of the folders curiously.

Wade Wilson has posed:
"Did somebody say Deadpool?" Wade suddenly asks as he arrives in full gear finally, Spiral actually getting to see how he dresses on the job now.

He's holding his cellphone up, and presses the button on his canned audience app. It's cheers and whistles when he enters the room.

"Spiral, and //my favorite boss//, Amanda 'The Wall' Waller!" He holds out a white plastic bag with a smiley face to her. "Lamb over rice for you." he gifts Waller, pressing the 'awwww' button on his audience app.

Amanda Waller has posed:
Great! Remind Waller of the Mafia Idiot fiasco! "An idiot that is still lingering between life and death." she notes. It clearly was not what she had planned. But ah well. She is patient as stated before.

When Deadpool enters and starts with his antics they are mostly ignored by Waller. Tough crowd! Or just used to clownettes and other such people already. She is made of tough stuff! Takes more than phone memes to get her going. Lamb over rice is noted though, she looking at the bag with a brief raise of her brow. "There you are. We were talking about a mission you will be going soon with the team."

A nod to the folder that Spiral picks up. Inside are black and white pictures, satellite taken most likely of a compound.

"Meet Camp Angelis Mater, in Oregon. Home to a group which we believe has connections to alt-right movements." a shrug, "We normally wouldn't care, but we are of the belief they have hold of one of our Agents.." more pictures inside the folder show a bit more of the outside of the camp, guard towers, people with machine guns. Clearly the kind of people that like their privacy for whatever they do.

Spiral has posed:
Spiral smirks happily at Wade, watching the proceedings bwtween the two with appreciation. Now tihs guy has star power. of course Waller just reacts like a ... brick wall. Appropriate nickname. Eventually she actually looks in the folder, considering all she says, plus its appearance. And shrugs, passing it to Wade in case he wants to look at it.

"I can teleport. And he can't die. So i will teleport him in, he will kill everybody, and then I will teleport him out. Easy.". She nods.

Then she casts a sidelong glance at Wade. A long one, eyes narrowing slightly. Someone with star power like that... well. The ratings will be better than Slips, she is sure.

Wade Wilson has posed:
Wade takes the folder, raising the bottom half of his mask so that he can lick his finger when thumbing pages. "Not so fast, Dreamy Arms. We've got a possible //hostage// situation. That means I can't quite kill //everyone// immediately... we'll have to use stealth, identify the location of the target, and //then// kill everyone!"

He points to Spiral. "You should teleport me in and I'll cause a distraction, which will make you able to teleport around and find the target, and //then// we kill everyone, Harley falls in love with me, and we all have an amazing polyarmorous relationship!"

Amanda Waller has posed:
Yes, there are various reasons why Amanda is called 'The Wall', and one of them being due to not being unfazed even when face-to-face with these powered people and their..., antics. And the Suicide Squad is known to host a few. "We don't want another Mafia Idiot situation." she tells Spiral and her attempt at a plan.

"We are nearly certain the Agent is alive, but if we enter the camp killing everyone they may take him away, or worse. He is carrying with him something that we need, and so that is also a priority." a nod towards Deadpool, and maybe she doesn't believe she is agreeing with the foul-mouthed mercenary but there she is ..

"We want you to get in there using stealth and ideally retrieve the man. Grifter will be going with you to supervise the operation along with Harley Quinn due to her knowledge on how to get in and out of places. Along with a couple of others to serve as muscle."

Another folder is passed over. "You will find pictures and information of our Agent there. There is also the possibility that our Agent may have gone rogue. That doesn't change the objective. Retrieve him and what he is carrying with him." she informs the duo.

Spiral has posed:
"That was going to be easy, until mutants showed up." Spiral spreads her arms. "Mutants intent on killing him. Nice mutants.". She glances over at Wade, but he's allowed to comment on her arms - at least, a little. So no raisin comments, yet. "This sounds complicated. So, I teleport Harley and Wade in, they grab the guy stealthily and then I teleport them out." she nods.

She's doing quite a good job of coming up with plans where she does almost nothing at all!

"A rogue agent?". She takes a step over to Wade so she can peek at any files that are leafed through. "He seems to have the correct number of arms...". Not VERY rogue, then.

Wade Wilson has posed:
"There's no way Rogue is into this guy, but we can do this. Don't worry, Spiral, I was Canadian special forces, that makes me basically almost as good as Rambo." Wade nods and crosses his arms, sitting back against the chair as he stares down at the folder.

"Well, if he //has// gone rogue, I suppose I could break his fingers just so that he knows we mean business and he won't do it again." he considers, before asking, "Is that breaking the objective? Well, I suppose it's //literally// breaking the objective..."

Amanda Waller has posed:
"As long as he is brought back /alive/" Is what Waller then says. Of course there is that vibe she isn't saying everything there is to say about this mission. But then again, this seems to be something normal in the suicide squad. A gesture is then made.

"I trust you understood what is to be done? Preparations will start soon and you will then be off once the team has been gathered. Dismissed." she offers a nod and returns to sitting on her chair. Yes, it did seem the meeting was over.
