SORRY

[slay]

Does this mean you won't be able to get in touch with them anymore? But, who's gonna warn them that he turned traitor?

uh huh

[romanticidal]

We have worked with others before. We know how to reach them in an emergency. Isabella will do her best to contact them.

;o;

[slay]

I hope she gets to them before he can do much damage. [ she stops, glancing over at rafael, softening as she realizes that being so ... business-y about it might be harsh. ] I'm sorry.

♥

[romanticidal]

[ he flinches just a little, but seems to accept her sympathy as genuine. ] It is a hazard, in such business. But the people you put your trust in literally hold your life in their hands... so we do not lay that trust lightly.

[slay]

Which makes it hurt worse when you find out you put it in the wrong place. [ she nods, understanding. ] If there's anything we can do to help ... I mean, assuming we don't get reassigned, obviously.

[romanticidal]

I would feel better not dragging either one of you into it. There are already those I care about in danger.

[slay]

[ she hesitates, expression quiet with uncertainty. ]

Care about? [ he cares about them? she chokes the numb surprise down and just nods. ] I. Right. Makes sense. But, as you may have noticed? Kinda durable here. Plus, y'know, volunteering for dragging. W-Which makes it less drag, more, uh. Guide. Guiding us into it.

[romanticidal]

You are very kind. But I do not know how much either of you can do... It will depend on what Hiro and Isabella find while we are gone.

[slay]

[ she nods. ]

Just keep us in the loop. [ she gets to her feet. ] And, let me know if you need anything.

[romanticidal]

[ he looks up to watch her go ]

You are already doing more than I could ask.
