Quebec knew that the time had come. With Topher upset and the threat of remote wipes being used on anyone at any time, the Doll was certain that there was no better time for his lover and him to escape. Echo had survived on the outside for three whole months, and while it was true that she was very special, Quebec liked to think that Kilo and he

He heard someone coming and shut his eyes on instinct. But then he heard Quebec's voice, and he opened his eyes again. Silently he took the man's hand, shifting to easily pass through the glass as if it were water.
Kilo kept his hand in Quebec's. He seemed to remember that if he wanted, he could make sure no one would see them. They could leave here without any trouble at all.
"We should hurry," he said quietly.

He couldn't resist pulling Kilo against him and giving him a deep kiss that took his breath away. He wanted to do more, so much more, but Kilo was right. They did need to hurry.
"We don't have much time," he agreed, nodding as he reluctantly pulled back.
He led Kilo out of the bed chamber and then slowly moved down the hall. He hesitated a moment as they passed by the staircase leading to the treatment room. "Should we leave a message for Topher?"

His eyes moved up to the treatment room as well. Topher was a good person. Topher was a good man and Kilo didn't want him to be sad. But... "If he doesn't know we left, he won't be in trouble," Kilo concluded.

He smiled at Kilo and then led his partner to the elevator. They were on the ground floor, and Quebec was hoping that the elevator car would be there waiting. He didn't want to run the risk of the elevator ding drawing attention. He took a deep breath and poked his head through the doors, and then grinned, tugging Kilo into the car with him.

"Jude," he said finally. "Jude will help us. I know how to find him."

He smiled at Kilo, nuzzling him in return. "And you're Peter," he breathed softly, his lips brushing over Kilo's -- Peter's -- cheek. "I love you."
He would've done more if they hadn't been in the elevator, and luckily the doors slid open, preventing him from changing his mind.
"I know where he is," Quebec said, nodding firmly.

"You're Desmond," he remembered. "Desmond Molloy... and I love you." And it didn't matter if he meant Kilo or Peter, because they both loved Desmond.
"Let's go," he nodded. "Let's go find Jude."

They didn't have money for cab fare, but Quebec was able to charm an older woman into giving them a couple of bus tokens with his sad puppy eyes and a sniffling pout. He thanked the woman, impulsively hugging her, and then pulled Kilo onto the next bus.
He wasn't sure how he instinctively knew which bus to take, but he didn't question it. The bus stopped a couple of blocks from Jude's apartment, and Quebec led Kilo the rest of the way.
Nervousness bubbled up inside him as they headed upstairs, and then he knocked on a particular door.
