Phedre|| Miranda-Siam
Things were piling up, one on the other. There was Aaron. Nikolai was making demands. John had made contact. Rave wasn't healing like Jack thought she would and she needed to stay wired at all times or else she seized. And then there was still work to be done. He was burning through cred faster than ever, and Alcuin...there was an expense he didn't need.
He wasn't against taking any shady work he could find, and his newest contact...it would put him on Oublie for weeks. A short con, a big heist. If he hadn't gotten involved wth people, it wouldn't be a big deal, but as it was--it was huge.
Jack was tense, he was thinking, and he was, whether he'd admit it or not, lonely.
One call and he'd arranged a meeting. Not at the Chapterhouse, not at the Scarlett Room. He'd called her and asked to meet at Cookie's. It was safe there. He sat and waited for the familiar face to walk through the door.
