Gin.

[godslaying]

Always nice to hear from you Captain.

[infidus]

I'm sure.

[He sighs a little, as though bored. Or thoughtful. Maybe.]

Today I've had a thought.

I thought... given our sudden arrival in a strange new world with new laws of nature and mysterious rules we know very little about, it seems like a good idea it be pleasant to socialize a bit.

[By which he means... gather information. A lot.]

[godslaying]

I'd be mighty surprised if ya stopped there.

[A single thought? Not bloody likely. Keeping up with him isn't easy, much less trying to get a step ahead.]

Gonna invite folks over for tea?

[Now he knows better than that.]

Or did ya already have something else in mind?

[infidus]

Gin. I have an assignment for you.

[godslaying]

Oh? Well now, I guess it is 'bout time I stretched my legs.

What would you have me to do, Captain?

[infidus]

That Patrol girl. The one who offered you persimmons.

Watch her for me. Find out about her, and her kind.

As a specimen she's rather interesting already - very young, and very strong. Not unlike that boy. But in her case, she is also the lover of that man, Isley. I wouldn't say he concerns me, but the combination of his strength and his mind does make him a person of note. The combination of the two of them may even be annoying.

I want to know what she is, and what it is she offers him. After speaking to him for some time, I can't imagine it's as simple as an emotional connection.

But of course she isn't the only one of her kind, so the question remains open - why her?

[godslaying]

Miss Prissy's a strange one, creepy in her own way. But she won't be the least bit boring to pick apart.

[Yeah, that mental image isn't disturbing. At all.]

Rest assured that I'll get ya those answers.
