Bastet raised an eyebrow at the volume of the knock, but merely said, "Come in, Trust. It's open."

She was in one of the two rooms in the house, the one they'd treated as the living room despite the fact that both had kitchenettes. It was currently full of bundles and a half-packed trunk, as she was in the process of moving her things to Section 3.

"Have a seat," she said, waving her hand at the floor cushion across from her at the low table. "You want tea or anything?" She was neutral and businesslike, completely unlike her normal relaxed manner. Mugen wandered over curiously, the kitten sniffing the air around Trust as if unsure.

Bastet snorted. "Tiger gods aren't exactly thick on the ground." She raised her voice slightly. "Leave him alone, little boy." Mugen broke off, scampering over to her and crawling into her lap. She let an absent hand drift down as he rolled onto his back and began batting at her fingers.

Bastet was fine with skipping the pleasantries. "First of all, I think we need to decide whether the Guard is actually a peacekeeping force, or if our only responsibility is to guard the cocoons. Things are getting out of control lately, and people don't feel safe. It seems that many of the new guards would prefer the former." She paused. "What are your thoughts?"
