Title: Reversal of Fortune Part 1
***
“Canary, are you ok? What’s happening now?”
[[Huh, I just jumped down onto the dock to watch two sweet, adorable, gulls making out.]]
“Huh?”
The woman listening to Canary’s every action heard a chuckle over the comm set and smirked inwardly; she knew she was being a tad overprotective but *hell* it was Dinah’s first solo sweep.
[[I’m fine. There’s nothing happening anywhere, and I’m freakin’ bored.]]
“Canary! Less of the language, my dear.”
Another chuckle wafted over the air, this time much closer to home. The worried listener scooted over to the edge of Delphi’s platform and observed her companion. Lounging on the sofa, she was sipping a mug of cocoa and appeared to be deeply enthralled in the mating ritual of two African elephants.
“Was that a chuckle I heard?”
“Leave the poor girl alone, you’ve trained her till she’s blue in the face; she’ll be fine.”
“How can you say that? You know exactly what she’s letting herself in for out there.”
Helena returned to her station, silently intent on her task at hand. In the background, she could hear Dinah softly humming the latest Garbage hit; if it was possible to hum that softly. She smiled; she must be getting old letting her younger partner go out on solo sweeps *and* worrying about the loudness of the modern music.
