He was there for your protection, and to create a distraction if necessary. It should have been easy.

So, who stopped you? Was it anyone you recognized? [He bet he already knew the answer.]

[motherwarnedme]

There was a Doctor there...didn't get his name. And one other....I think I heard Lestrade mentioned.

It's going to be a bit harder to get those items back.

[powerofthegods]

[He considered for a moment. A Doctor? Maybe she meant the Doctor, although honestly it's not like Schmidt knew anything about the man except in passing. He'd seen some of his broadcasts on the network. He was hardly a big enough man to take on a giant lizard. And neither was Lestrade.]

You mean that you were stopped by two people who I would hardly describe as formidable, unless they have some ability I am not aware of, stopped you from stealing finishing your job?

[motherwarnedme]

Two others too. That kid, Peter Parker and one other guy. Blonde with super powers.

[powerofthegods]

... Captain America? [Of course. Steve was getting in Schmidt's way even when he didn't know it. Damnit.

He is silent for what seems like a while before he speaks again.] If I were to give you another chance, would you be able to produce results this time? [He wants that stuff back and it's not like he has anything else to try and get it.]

[motherwarnedme]

I hope he really doesn't go by that name.

[ That's way worse than Batman. It's like the name of a Saturday morning cartoon. ]

I may be able to. This time, I'll go in alone. A crippled lizard isn't exactly discreet.

[powerofthegods]

He does, yes. It is ridiculous, isn't it? His real name is Steven Rogers. [And Schmidt hates him, but you won't get him to monologue about it.]

Then I will leave you to your own devices, but the police station will be more difficult to infiltrate without distractions.

[motherwarnedme]

Very ridiculous. [ Monologue all you want creepy anon boss. ]

I'll see what I can do. [ She should ask for double her fee now. ]

[powerofthegods]

He himself is no less so. [Nope, not gonna monologue.

And her fee would only be doubled if she did something clever to get the items back.] Good. An infiltration of the police station, perhaps.

[motherwarnedme]

You sound as if you know him quite well.

[powerofthegods]

I do. It seems inevitable that he would be the one to your way, and thus in my way.

[motherwarnedme]

I hope you don't have an equally cheesy name.

[ You know you wanna tell her your name~ ]

[powerofthegods]

I do not. [Just that awful one other people gave him.] But you still do not need to know it. [Nope, he isn't going tell you. Sorry, Selina.]

[motherwarnedme]

We can't have a successful partnership if we don't trust each other now.

[powerofthegods]

Ah, a successful business partnership? Is that what you want, Ms Kyle? You have yet to deliver on your end of your deal. The items I requested are still with the police.

[motherwarnedme]

You're really fixated on getting items that weren't yours in the first place.

[ Or so you say. ]

[powerofthegods]

[Yes, he does say!] I have need of them. It is no concern of yours. I hired you to do a simple job and you failed.

Perhaps you would like to try again? [If she was one of his subordinates back home, she'd be dead. But he couldn't do that here, it would attract too much attention.]

[motherwarnedme]

If you're asking me to try again, I must be the only thief in town.

[ In other words, beggars can't be choosers. ]

[powerofthegods]

I am simply giving you the option, if you still want the money.

[motherwarnedme]

[ You really need to work on your people skills, Mr. Creeper. ]

I'll see if I can get back in unnoticed.

[powerofthegods]

Good. I hope that you succeed this time. [Pfft, whatever. Who needs people skills?

Annd click! He hangs up because he's pretty much done talking to you, Selina. Rude, I know.]
