A couple of days later and Ethan was sitting in the living room, having just cleaned up after breakfast. He was sitting in a seat that couldn't be seen from the window, as was his custom - he didn't want random passersby getting suspicious of anything. He had his notebook and an earpiece in his ear, and was writing down some information with his invisible ink. The earpiece was linked to his surveillance team and to a radio link - basically, it was his information hub. And unfortunately for Ethan, his surveillance team never shut up.
"Come on, is that really important to know?" Ethan said into the earpiece "No, I don't want to know about the new coffee shop you found. If you've got nothing important to say, can you let me listen to the radio signals?"
But the woman from his surveillance team was already off, and Ethan groaned. She probably wouldn't shut up for at least half an hour, and he sighed, turning down the volume on the earpiece. That way he'd be able to ignore her incessant rambling, but he'd know if she had anything genuinely important to say.
He rolled his eyes, and instead began going over all of the actually useful information he had just been given in his head. It seemed like Hitler was making all of the expected moves. It was like a game of chess. But just because they seemed to be ahead right now didn't mean that Ethan thought even for a second that they were winning. Hitler had a way of letting you think you'd won and then surprising everyone. He had no doubt Hitler had something big in progress. Something he'd have to uncover sooner or later. And if his stupid surveillance team could give him some actually useful information so that he could make his move sooner rather than later, he'd appreciate it.

(omg yes)
Sebastian sighed as he finished up his own breakfast in the dining room, walking back over to the kitchen to quickly wash the dishes down and place them back in the cabinets. He'd have to go out to the store today, something he'd definitely rather not do, but as he was getting quite low on food (especially with the spy in the house) he'd need to go anyways. Well, better get it out of the way now, or else it will never get done...
But as he passed Ethan, he didn't stay long to hear the conversation that the other was having with some team over on the other end, but long enough to cast a weird glance over at the spy, who had his back to Sebastian. Something about that man was so deeply... alluring, if that was the correct term to be used here, to the German. He wanted to know more about the person behind this tough spy, he wanted to- nevermind. If Ethan were to look around to see Sebastian staring so utterly strangely at him, especially now, it would be more than embarrassing. So Sebastian quickly moved on, trying to quell a growing blush at what he had just been doing/thinking, as he got ready for the day, changing into some more appropriate clothing for actually going outside in and grabbing whatever he may need else to go to the store. Hey, you never knew what could happen in Nazi Germany.
And soon enough he had most of his long hair hidden under a normal looking hat, normal clothing on and he was ready to leave. "I got to um, go out to the uh, the st-store, I'll be back soon." Sebastian said to Ethan, hoping that the other heard him as he opened the front door to his home, wincing at the cold morning air that rushed in, before just stepping out and moving on his way.

"Alright, see you soon" Ethan had replied as he heard the door shut. Once the man was gone he turned the volume back up on the earpiece and began to talk again.
"Irene," he began to the woman on the other end of the earpiece "as riveting as your coffee shop story sounds, would you mind doing your job? While you're getting the best cup of coffee ever back over in Britain, I'm here risking my life, not to mention the lives of everyone who associates with me, and I'm still not one step closer to getting anything done. I'm going to either need you to tell me about all of the back streets in this city or I'm going to need you to let me listen to the radio while you get on that, because I'm going to need an escape route if you're wanting me to bug Hitler's office."
He massaged his temples as he heard the sound of Irene sighing and then the sound of the radio playing. Great. That meant she hadn't done her job yet and was going to start doing it now, which in turn meant he probably wouldn't be getting any useful data that day. Well, just great. Another day that would probably be fruitless.
[Sorry this is short. Are you doing the neighbours, or how are we doing this?]

Luckily, for the most part, Sebastian's trip to the nearby market had gone without a hitch, save for the occasional second glance as to what this vampire-looking person was doing out here. He had gotten the necessities he had been needing, and definitely the other living in his house now will be needing, and he let out a breath of sweet relief as he carried the bag of his items he had bought home, jut wishing he'd be back in the safety and privacy of his own home soon enough. Well, that wish would've soon been fulfilled, if it weren't for a tap on the back that alerted to his attention.
"Ja?" (Yes?) He said, turning around to find well, his neighbor and friend Severin standing with crossed arms and a worried look on his face. "Oh Hallo, Severin, wie du bist?"(Oh hello, Severin, how are you?) Sebastian said, biting his lip nervously as he fought off the dreading thoughts of all the possible reasons why Severin decided to approach him.

[Nosy neighbour level 100]
"Ich sehe, dass Sie mehr Lebensmittel als üblich haben" (I see that you have more groceries than usual) replied Severin, eyeing the bag of food in the other man's arms "Haben Sie einen Besucher?" (do you have a visitor?)
Ethan's earpiece buzzed as Irene's voice punctuated the radio "There's a neighbour outside talking to Mr Falkenrath" she informed Ethan, and the man stiffened and moved even further from the window.
"Can you get audio?" he asked very quietly, not wanting this neighbour to hear
"No, I'm sorry, Mr Grey" Irene replied "But I can tell you that he looks a little suspicious. I don't think it looks good, sir"
"Alright, well, keep me informed," Ethan replied "And since when did you have surveillance on the house?"
"Since you arrived," Irene replied "I have my ways, sir."

(it's over 9000!)
"Nein, ich habe einen Besucher. Ich bin einfach auf Lebensmitteln aufstocken. Warum fragst du?" (No, I don't have a visitor. I'm simply stocking up on food. Why do you ask?) Sebastian said, hoping the nervousness that he was feeling by this sudden encounter by his neighbor wasn't showing through in his voice. Although, unbeknownst to him, the wariness and the paranoia he had been feeling for the last couple days, and the nervousness he felt now, sort of was starting to show itself through his voice. Oh no.

[Totally]
"Oh, einfach nur neugierig" (Oh, just curious) replied Severin "Sie schienen nervös, das ist alles. Seien Sie vorsichtig, jetzt" (you seemed nervous, that's all. Be careful, now)
"Get me everything you can on this man" Ethan said quickly into the earpiece.
"Facial identification in progress." replied Irene "Okay, according to records his name is Severin Weber. He's a known informer. This looks bad. As soon as Mr Falkenrath comes back in, I would advise you abort mission and you both get out of there, unless you want an unpleasant midnight visit tonight."
Ethan swore under his breath "Abort the mission? But I can handle it!"
"You've got Mr Falkenrath to think about too, sir." Irene replied "This might be a solo mission, but you're not the only one in danger. Get yourself out of the country as soon as possible."

Sterling sighed as he scratched at his head, wincing as he tried to bunch up some long locks of hair that fell out of his hat. Oh god... he needed to go, and hopefully what he said next wouldn't spite an argument between the two... that'd not be good at all. "Ich habe gerade sehr gestresst gewesen in letzter Zeit eine Menge Dinge passiert, also bitte nicht gehen, stecken Ihre Nase in der anderen und mich Fragen." (I've just been very stressed lately, a lot of things happening, so please don't go sticking your nose into other's business and ask me about it.) Oh. Sebastian didn't mean for that to come out so aggressively. His eyes widened as he stepped back, now feeling his whole body freeze up in place. This was not good. Not good at all.
(oops)

[Oh no!]
Severin raised his eyebrows, looking shocked, but only said "Wie ich schon sagte, Freund, seien Sie vorsichtig" (as I said, friend, be careful) in a low and dangerous voice before walking away.
Then it was Irene's turn to swear under her breath "Mr Falkenrath seems to have made him angry. You definitely have to abort mission now, you have no chance. He's going to inform on you"
Ethan bit his lip "What if I get Mr Falkenrath out of here but continue my mission?"
"You could, but where would you go?" Irene asked
"I don't know"

Admiring the horse, and the man, she realized that this would be the most exciting evening she's had in a long time. Scratch that. The most exciting evening she'd ever have. "I'd be delighted to," Eleanor smiled, hoisting herself up before sitting in front of the man. Looking over her shoulder she asked in a teasing manner, "You're not going to kill me and stash my body away, are you Isaac? Because that would put a damper on the mood."

Isaac grinned, teasing her "Well, that wouldn't be very gentlemanly of me, would it? I'm afraid there will be no body-stashing tonight, Eleanor" He set the horse off, and once it was going at a comfortable speed he turned back. "I'm going to take you to the riverbank. It doesn't sound particularly exciting, but it's the most beautiful and peaceful place I know. So why not?"

Leaning back onto him, she laughed at his comment on body-stashing and when he mentioned the riverbank she smiled. "That sounds perfect. It will be a nice place to cool off, this is the hottest summer yet."

Isaac had smiled at her comment about it being hot, and they rode in comfortable quiet for about ten more minutes before he slowed the horse, dismounting and then offering Eleanor his hand to help her down.
It was about sunset by this point, which meant that the river looked particularly beautiful, reflecting the pinks and blues of the sky. It was quiet, too, the only sounds the birds as they settled in the trees to roost.

Taking his help greatfully, she dismounted the horse with ease and smiled up at the man before the river caught her attention. Brushing past him, her eyes grew wide as she took in the spectacular view and sighed. "Isaac Peake, this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." She said, turning around to face the smiling man, her hair already escaping her updo, not that she minded.

Isaac grinned "Oh, I'm glad you like it. I come here a lot, when I get some free time. It's the only place the others can't find me. "
He liked to get away from the others, sometimes, because he often got so overloaded with work that he didn't get a chance for a break. At least if he came here he wouldn't get a stream of people asking him to write a letter about this, or an essay about that. It was the only part of his life that was peaceful at the moment, and it felt special to take Eleanor here.

"Well you've ruined it then!" She exclaimed, eyes wide. "Because now I'll be able to find you Isaac. No place is safe for you now Peake." She laughed before grabbing his hand and pulling him closer to the riverbank.

Isaac laughed as she pulled him closer to the riverbank "See, I certainly wouldn't mind if you were to come visit me here every once in a while. I was beginning to feel selfish keeping something so beautiful all to myself"
