.......

*sets her cellphone down onto her desk, and rises up to her feet with a clatter. A whirlwind of thoughts race across her mind, and it's all she can do to restrain her distress from appearing on her features. Her hands are shaking*

...........

*takes three rapid steps towards the door--then halts, as some new, sudden thought occurs to her. She hesitates, then walks quickly back to her desk, where she'd left her phone; after a moment's hesitation longer, she picks it up and begins inputting a number she never thought she'd call again...*

*riiing* *riiing*

[desperadojake]

*there's four rings before he picks up with an unwelcome tone*

.....Marshall here.

[yesterdayskye]

......Jake. Thank goodness--

*there's an unfamiliar edge of anxiety in her voice; she's speaking altogether too hurriedly*

Something has... something has come up. I need your help.

[desperadojake]

*not with cold resentment or indifference, but some interest -- and even concern*

....What? What's goin' on?

[desperadojake]

*February 21st, around 10 PM -- visitors normally wouldn't be allowed, but Jake has old friends working at the precinct, and they know when he will or won't budge on an issue. This is one of those times when it's best to simply let him through. He's standing in the visitor's room of the detention center now, waiting for the main attraction to show*

*for the last few hours, she'd been in one of the interrogation rooms of the detention center, being grilled as to the details of her alleged crime. By her guess, there were still many hours left of it for the night. That is why, when a pair of guards come to lead her from the room, she is rather surprised*

[yesterdayskye]

*moves down the hall, and is led to the entrance of one of the visitation rooms. She follows the guard in front of her quietly inside until she sees who is waiting for her. Then, she comes to an abrupt halt*

I don't have anything to say to you.

((fun times for Lana continued))

[desperadojake]

I'm listenin'.

[yesterdayskye]

I... I haven't heard from Ema since right after my arrest. I don't know where she is right now.

Make sure she doesn't come here, or to my trial; this has nothing to do with her.

[desperadojake]

You have my word -- if you tell me what happened to Neil.

[yesterdayskye]

No. I can't.
