Crawford made his way into the living room. Schuldig was seated, and from the look on his face, he had already started to delve into Farfarello's mind. He stopped behind the redhead and leaned foward, a hand on his teammate's shoulder.
"I'm on my way out. You hold the fort while I'm gone. It should only be a few hours."
His thoughts whispered against Schuldig's, as if asking to be listened to. /Bring me in./
He pushed his glasses up his nose and walked right out of the room.
Farfarello leaned back in the kitchen chair opposite Schuldig's. Might as well look comfortable; God, but he'd forgotten how much these these little 'security and mental health checks' sucked. Depending on what exactly Schuldig was looking for, this could take forever. "No wonder you sent outside to 'play' first," Farfarello grumbled. "What exactly are you looking for?" He met the mind breaker's eyes and blinked; his eyelids were growing heavy, too heavy to keep open

They did -- at midnight. General Cross Marian literally kicked down the palace door and in the middle of the resulting rioting, Farfarello had seen Nagi and Crawford. Crawford, the untouchable and all knowing, all seeing Crawford -- he whose powers had been stripped from him thanks to some nameless god, or perhaps that god-pretender Queen -- he was bleeding, blood from claw marks seeping through his white suit jacket and Nagi had been supporting him

Schuldig sighed and let Brad into his head, but pushed him out of the way where he wouldn’t interrupt. How lovely. Schuldig knew it wasn’t a trust issue, but more of something resembling control. He was supervising. Making sure Schuldig didn’t fuck around and that Farfarello participated. Making sure his employees did their assigned jobs
