[Phone Call to Mab]

Hello, love.

Say, would you happen to know what's going on with Arthur? I can't seem to get a hold of him all of a sudden.

Fine. Fine. [ So much pouting.]

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

It'll be all right. Have you gathered your team, or were you intending to do this alone?

[winter-queen.insanejournal.com]

If I could do it alone I would. Ogma can't hardly open his own front door. Bres is better off, but we.... can't really accomplish anything useful together. [ Boy those emotions sure change on a dime. Her voice sounded rather husky at the end. She really had zero control over her feelings.]

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

...indeed. Just the two of us, then?

[winter-queen.insanejournal.com]

Of course not. Bres is capable of coming along and being perfectly useful.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

I'll expect that usefulness. If he proves a distracting presence to anyone but the enemies, I'll be separating him from the group.

[winter-queen.insanejournal.com]

He won't be the problem.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

If I need to build you a fire and make you stand back, I will.

[winter-queen.insanejournal.com]

[Also not really the issue she's talking about but she's not about to correct him.]

When can you be here?

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

Anytime you need me.

[winter-queen.insanejournal.com]

This needs to be over sooner than later.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

My sister is still being sought. But we have plenty of Greeks to look for her. You need the help more than they do.

Give me a date. I'll come.

[winter-queen.insanejournal.com]

Yesterday.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

And where do I meet you?

[winter-queen.insanejournal.com]

Like I said, I can't leave my penthouse. [She rattles off the address.] You'll have to come up. I can't even go into elevator. We can take my jet to Vermont from there.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

Not a problem. I'll bring my bow.
