[ Preparations to move the Knighthood to the SHIELD headquarters in Las Vegas are well underway, and the place is filled with activity as people begin packing up what they feel they may need, and making difficult calls about what to leave behind.

Some are busy making even more difficult calls.

Katniss found a note left for her on her pillow, instructing her to come to a particular parlor at a particular time, in a familiar enough handwritten script. There must, as always, be a reason for his subterfuge in choosing not to use Drakenet to send the message, but there's something ominous about this meeting that casts an extra tension over the scene. As she pushes open the door, she would see that he is seated at the piano at the far end of the room, his fingers tracing over the keys, without actually playing anything.

As she steps closer, his fingers come to a stillness, and he speaks without looking fully back: ]

You are certain you're alone?

Threaded | Flat

[Katniss is honestly more comfortable with his subterfuge, and she's had her share of paranoia about this whole situation. She remembers very well what she saw in LA and her circle of trust has never been very large.

Even less so with things so crazy around here.

She moves through the room toward where he's sitting.]

Yes.

[No one really pays attention to her anyway. She likes it that way.]
