knife_bender: ([neu] s3 we don't fight like that)
Diego tried his very best to not be That Guy and demand he know his wife's every move. She was an adult, he knew she was with friends, and she was fine during that whole Rey thing back in August. He was sure she was fine.

But come on, a phone call would be appreciated!

He was just going to be pacing the apartment, trying to think of logical reasons of why she hadn't called rather than convening an emergency meeting of The Umbrella Academy to solve the mystery of "where the fuck did my wife go and why hasn't she called me?".

[For one! That Annie came home looking rough is fine for broadcast but specifics on Wanda's shenanigans are NFB]
knife_bender: ([pos] s3 told you so)
It had been a really, really good honeymoon so far. Sure, they hadn't found any untouched ancient ruins to explore and potentially break, but they had been to the beach a lot, and seen some truly awesome views.

And there was also the part where they'd occasionally spend a day not leaving the hotel suite, like today. Those days were just as good. Shame it'd be over in a few days.

"Look, this food has been great," Diego said, looking over the room service menu. "But I'm actually kind of dying for a cheeseburger right now."

[For the wife!]
knife_bender: ([spec] beer)
Diego was a pretty simple guy. He didn't require anyone to go all out for a bachelor party, which was why he was fairly confident Luther could pull it off without it being a complete disaster.

There was a bar. There was karaoke at said bar, and the added benefit of there being arcade games at said bar. Perfect way to get a bunch of dudes hammered the night before a good chunk of them had to leave on a trip overseas.

[For the dudes who better get off their ass and sing. Hold for some OCD We're good to go!]
knife_bender: squarebox (neu: he shanked your heart)
Diego trusted Annie when she said she could do something on her own, so he was only the sane amount of worried when she ran to do an errand. He didn't ask too many questions, didn't text every five minutes, he just waited patiently.

Until he went into the bedroom to grab something, and found Kimiko's letter to Annie.

"Oh, shit." God damn it, Annie. Now he had to go after you.

At least she was pretty easy to find? )

It had been a long night. It had been a long couple days. He was almost jealous MM got to have a long, drug-induced nap, because it felt like he hadn't slept in a week.

"How's your head, man?" Diego asked, handing MM a cup of coffee.

Just a roofie hangover, nbd )

The last 24 hours had been it's own special type of hell, and the fact that Diego was banned from leaving the tower just made him even more anxious and irritated. It was a smart move from Homelander, holding him hostage, since it incapacitated both him and Annie. At least Annie was allowed to go outside.

Speaking of, she should be getting back from work any minute, which was something. Maybe Hughie had updated her on what went down in Russia.

...which was just a weird thing to think about. What was this, 1985?

[NFB due to distance, but open for the girl and calls/texts if people would like]
knife_bender: ([neu] it'll be okay)
Perfectly normal lunch break for Annie! Nothing to see here! )

knife_bender: ([neu] cute arms crossed man)
Spending an hour in a car with someone he barely knew wasn't at the top of Diego's "fun things to do" list, but at least he could tune out Hughie's nervous rambling pretty easily.

"Remember, just here for recon," Diego said as he turned the engine off. "Any sign of acid puke or head exploding, we get out of here."

Annie would probably be irritated enough they did this without her. If it all went to shit while she wasn't here Diego would be in big trouble.

So obviously this goes great )

The weekend had been weird, but the kind of weird where the good outweighed the bad, so Diego couldn't really complain. The Five thing had been weird. Same with the lack of powers and tattoos. But, he was happily married, and apparently had some awesome kids that could throw a rager. So, really no reason to mope.

Just a lot of not asking questions was happening over here. Instead he was just...very, very focused on the Food Network the last couple days. Maybe one day he'd actually cook something he learned on TV.

[For the fiancée, and open to anyone who wants to stop by for some reason]
knife_bender: ([neu] i don't follow)
It had been a long day in Baltimore, going to wedding venue after wedding venue and mostly standing there looking supportive while Annie asked questions he didn't really understand. It was fun going over hypothetical menus though. Most importantly, this also made them finally settle on a date for the wedding. So now it felt like An Actual Thing that was happening.

And they got to visit his siblings at their abode, which was exhausting for a whole different reason.

"Why is there so much paperwork involved?" Diego asked, dumping the armful of brochures and package options he had been given throughout the day onto the kitchen table.

[For the girl, but can also be open if you want]
knife_bender: ([neu] pep talk)
It had been almost two months since they landed back from 1963, and Diego still felt like had a duty to make sure his siblings were fitting in okay. He and Five had come back to something familiar, the other four...well, they were in an entirely different universe, in a year that never existed for them. He didn't expect them to be okay with that, but he wanted them to be comfortable, at least.

Thankfully Annie was, like, a kajillionare so they at least weren't forced to get jobs right away, unless they wanted to.

Sibling stuff here don't mind me )

[NFB due to distance. Very minor spoilers for TUA season 3 and now I can finally change my character tag for him]
knife_bender: (pos: hopeful)
After work Diego had rushed home to enact his plan. He had promised (or warned?) Annie, that the only thing stopping him from buying an engagement ring was that he needed to deal with the whole lost siblings thing first. Well, they have now been found and Diego was wasting no time. He had taken Klaus and Allison out to Baltimore that very week and bought a ring.

Along with about ten empty ring boxes. Because he was going to have fun with this. Allison thought it was a bad idea but what did she know, she was divorced and her second husband was 60 years in the past.

[For the girl!]
knife_bender: ([pos] i like you)
Well, at least there were still two Commission members who wouldn't try to kill the Hargreeves. Herb and Dot had a big mess to clean up, but it was one they would clean up gladly.

They looked happy to see Five and Diego approach them, even!

Finally they get a hold of one of those fucking briefcases )

Will our heroes make it home? )

They had all managed to make it back to Elliot's after the grassy knoll, somehow avoiding cops, FBI agents and nosy Texans who thought they could perform a citizen's arrest.

But they had made their impact. Their faces were all over the news as the people who killed President Kennedy.

"...Lee Harvey Oswald. Vanya Hargreeves, wanted in connection with the deaths of several FBI agents inside the federal building at Dealey Plaza. A Cuban exile known only as Diego…"

"Cuban?" Diego repeated.

"...who recently escaped from the Holbrook Sanitarium."

Aw look wanted by the government together )

They were really getting to learn the in's and out's of Dallas on this adventure, weren't they?

Once he, Annie, Allison and Klaus were assembled outside of the FBI building, Diego checked his watch. "Okay, we've got a little time before Kennedy shows up."

He looked at the doors to the building and then back at Annie. "I need you to stay out here."

And, yes, he knew that wasn't going to go over well.

Stopping the apocalypse…again )

Diego came to slowly, wincing from a headache caused by...well, whatever the hell Lila dosed him with.

Goddammit. He was so stupid.

He blinked a couple times, getting used to the light. He soon realized that he was in a pretty swanky office. Lila was to the left of him and in front of them behind a desk was...a very dramatically dressed lady.

Wake up Diego new career just dropped )

Yes, yes, an hour and a half. Diego knew they were in a time crunch. But if couldn't trust Annie and Ben to arrive on time, who could he trust?

And he'd get there. After he was done burying this body. Elliot at least deserved that.

Luther felt like his whole world was being turned upside down. The one time he doesn't want to do what Dad says, the rest of his siblings go "sure, let's go out to eat with him".

His life was unfair.

"Diego, this is a set up."
