Phone Calls: Paranoia isn't a condition, it's a way of life.
Dresden.
You’re awake.
Thomas? I assumed you got my letter.
You’re awake, Harry.
I’m working a case. You calling from a gas station again?
Yeah. There goes those PI skills I’m paying you for.
As long as you’re paying. Murph tells me you’ve been acting weird on the show. You’re overdoing it again, aren’t you?
Do I tell you how to run your business?
Frequently.
Anyways, I got your letter. Our problem’s getting a bit bigger and more interesting.
Great. You know how I love ‘interesting,’ Thomas.
Hey, flaming monkey poop monkey Voltron, Harry.
Not my fault!
Like I was saying, I took a dive into Dru’s head and saw runes. Look hold on to the yelling and let me finish. There are runes, and I talked to Dru, and now there’s an entire journal written in code, covered in the same sort of runes I saw in her head. I don’t know about you, but if there’s psychomancy going around, I am going to shut that ass down hard.
Thomas, that’s out of your jurisdiction. That’s for the White Council to decide.
Don’t kid me, Harry. We all know the White Council would just go Alice on them and make with the head whacking. I’m just doing them a favor. But we still need to figure out who did it, and I think you need the journal to start on that.
I doubt the blood’s fresh on that thing
Drier than your wallet. And I don’t want to let it out of my hands. Call it a hunch.
I could come up to find you. It’s your dime, after all.
Ha. No, they don’t realize we have the journal, as far as we can tell, and having your ugly mug show up on our doorstep screaming WIZARD isn’t going to go well.
Well, there’s always running through the Nevernever…
I might be able to slip through from here, but I don’t know what things are like on the other side here.
And since Mab’s lost her marbles and said- never mind. I’ll think about it. We might just have to resort to using a Xerox, even though that’ll lose all the nuances that could help identify the warlock.
Yeah…
Let me think about it for a few days. Maybe Bob will have some idea. I’ll give you a call when I figure something out.
Yeah, leave a message on my phone when you figure something out. It should still be safe.
Don’t hold your breath. I’ve got other cases to work on, you know.
Yeah. Don't go doing something stupid without backup.
Kettle. Pot. Black.
Shut up Harry. Oh and buy Karrin a cup of coffee on me.
It makes me suspicious that you’re talking to Murph, Thomas. And you better pay me back for it, otherwise she’ll never let me live it down.
Yes, I'll pay you back. Thanks, Harry.
Just get your ass back here in one piece.
You’re awake.
