035 - And We Will Never Speak of This Again

[halfblooded_git]

And there is a ridiculous, pointless display of power. My congratulations to whatever thick-headed idiot destroyed that structure, clearly your choice of targets was inspired.

Anita, Lyra..Sweeney? I trust none of you were near that building when it exploded? Though I'm sure if you had, there would have been notice of it by now.

I'm fine. I was still at home when it happened, but I headed out as soon as I heard it.

Made my fucking head hurt...

[halfblooded_git]

And are you taking anything for it?

[browning_baby]

.... no?

[halfblooded_git]

If that sort of activity continues, I wouldn't be surprised of we all suffered irreparable hearing damage.

[browning_baby]

Well, it's been quiet since then, at least.

[halfblooded_git]

How is your head now?

[browning_baby]

Still hurts. All my beasts are awake.

[halfblooded_git]

Would you like for me to prescribe something for the headache? I'm afraid there is little I can do about the second half.

[browning_baby]

... would it taste decent?

[halfblooded_git]

It would work.

[browning_baby]

Now that doesn't very sound promising.

It'd be appreciated, though.

Are you safe?

[halfblooded_git]

I'll see what I can do.

Safe as anyone. The apartment is warded, as it has always been.

And are you?

[browning_baby]

Thanks.

Good.

I pretty sure we are. Richard and I can handle just about anything, I think. If it comes down to it, we'll get the kids and head Underground or to the caves on the other side of the forest.

[halfblooded_git]

As safe a place as any. If there is going to be another attack, I would suspect they would head to the most populated areas first.

[browning_baby]

Agreed. Is it stupid to wish it would just up and happen already?

I hate waiting for the other shoe to drop.

You know, if worse comes to worse, you and Sweeney could join us when we hide out. I have a feeling the three of us could pretty much kick anythings ass that tries to come after us.

[halfblooded_git]

No, it isn't stupid. The waiting, I feel, is the worst part of it.

That is a very kind offer, Anita, and I may send Sweeney along to you. There are, however, students of my own to be looked after. They're altogether hopeless as combatants.
