briefing ♔ just caught in the undertow

  Au Revoir - OneRepublic

WHO || Wynn, Buffy, Myri, Finnick, Spike, Kat, Gar, Archer, Des, Rafael, Fred Jr., Dumage  [Closed]
WHAT || Andres Mission Briefing
WHERE || Knights HQ, lobby etc.
WHEN || August 14th [forward dated]
HOW || Actionspam. Single thread, don't worry about maintaining tagging order.

Ceding to the demands of psychotic despots isn't exactly something the Knights prefer to do.

Perhaps this is why Wynn has taken his sweet time in arranging the group that Dimitris Sarandis has insisted on speaking with, the 'only ones' to whom he has agreed to deliver his demands for the safe and secure return of Dragon's Claw Sir Thomas Bancroft.  The meeting is finally scheduled, and as promised, Rafael has flown in from America to participate, picked up by Des en route to the castle.  Kat, Myri, Buffy, Finnick, Archer, and Spike had one of Myri's 'family failboat dinners' together, and as such, have wandered out of the dining room together in the direction of the lobby after Buffy received a text from Rafael that they were there.  Raf and Des are just pushing open the doors as they make their way across the tiled floor.

[ It’s hard not to feel somber with the briefing slated and the flight booked.

With the journey finally on their doorstep, and everything that has transpired since the wedding, Buffy can’t bring herself to truly smile when she spots them. She does, however, surge forward to pull both Des and Rafael into a hug at once, shutting her eyes and squeezing them close. ]

Hey.

[ When she pulls back, she rubs their upper arms and turns back to look at the others, the sad smile she’d mustered fading fast. With everyone here, she supposes, it's time. ]
