[Getting sent to Westport by the weeping angels was more than a little unsettling for Miakis, not to mention highly unpleasant and exhausting. When she returns to Mayfield on Thursday, she eats a larger meal than a woman of her size and stature should be capable of consuming, takes a long nap, and... talks to her drone husband.

Dammit, Ken. It's

You can stay with us, if needed.

[sting_like_a]

Ooh, but I'd hate to get in the way of your budding romance~

[wristsniper]

............

What is that supposed to mean?

[sting_like_a]

You're newlyweds! Still in honeymoon mode! It's okay, I understand~

[wristsniper]

...I've changed my mind. You're not welcome under my roof at all.

[sting_like_a]

[s...so mean olivier...]

Abandoning me to Ken's drone? I am wounded~

[wristsniper]

Better you with a drone than me with a pest.

[LOUDEST HANGUP EVER.]

[sting_like_a]

[CALLING BACK GODDAMMIT]

I'm not a pest!

[rogue_crow]

[She'll be answered by a familiar laugh!] Maker's breath, woman, what did you say to her?

[sting_like_a]

...Nothing out of the ordinary~? [hee hee] Hi, Zev!

[rogue_crow]

[He sounds amused.] Yes, I suspect that would do it. How have you been, Miakis?

[sting_like_a]

I'm... I'm okay! Happy to be out of Westport, if nothing else~ Too bad Ken had to greet me by getting droned, the jerk.

[rogue_crow]

How terribly inconsiderate of him. [His tone shifts from dry humor to concern.] He is coming back, yes?

[sting_like_a]

Yeah, he should snap out of it soon! His stuff is still here, and he knows I'll hunt him down if he doesn't come back.

[Pause. Well, Olivier asked her to keep an eye on Zev, and this is as good an opportunity as any...] What about you? How've you been doing? You've been quiet lately~!

[rogue_crow]

Have I? [Zevran's tone is calm, innocent, and as revealing as a brick wall.] I suppose I have been occupied.

[sting_like_a]

What, too busy for your best buddy Miakis? I'm wounded, Zev~
