Madelyne Pryor stands on the midspan of the Tower Bridge, looking down at the Thames, deep in thought. There is a soft sigh from her as she looks at the water, trying to think of what comes next in this great and grand plan she's come up with. Right now, as it is, she can go back to New York and start working on changing things from the inside there.
Except she'll be the small fish with no allies at all in New York.
In Paris, she was the big fish. Here she can become the big fish with a matter of time. She knows she can. The weaknesses in the power structure are visible, though they will take some time exploit. Still, it doesn't seem likely she'll be able to have that time before someone in New York grabs her for themselves. Even money is on it being Selene. Again.
Which is the thing that she wants to avoid. So, either she needs to gain some allies quickly, find a way to keep herself locked into London and indespensable to things here or she needs to find a way to distract the people in New York who would be interested in grabbing her up to be a pawn in their game. She doesn't want to be a pawn in anyone else's game.
She is far too used to being a Queen.
A Queen with no subjects and her strongest allies... do not get along. Her thoughts turn to Nate and Nathan, which pulls another sigh from her.
She needs more allies. She needs to get more friends. She needs to...
Madelyne diverts her thoughts, turning to look at London City Hall, she shakes her head continuing to turn. She looks around in a full circle, looking Whitechapel and then completes the circle. After a moment, she continues on her way toward the City Hall side of things.
She knows a good pub over there.
