Jinx. What is it you need?

nothing. outside got quiet.

No doubt the would-be heroes have been successful. Or most of the city is leveled and there's no more need for screaming and panicking.

are we the only ones left? i havent left my clinic.

No, we are not. Our home was damaged in the recent explosion. We will have to live at the Last Drop for awhile.

are we... opening and living in the basement?

[the area that's somewhat off-limits due to it being vander's home for her, vi, and the rest. she secretly goes down there from time to time, but tries not to linger in the memory lane for too long.]

No, you will have your hammock in my office. I will sleep in my chair.

[He had no interest in sleeping in the basement. He had horded supplies down there anyway, so the room was limited on what they could use as an abode.]

ok. ... any sign of ragna?

No, not yet. He will return. I am making preparations to prevent future losses by that idiot.

?? like what?

More power, of course. It is necessary for control.

dad, i dont know how u can gain more power in a place like this.

The same way I gained power last time with some additions.

just... dont get too crazy with shimmer, ok?

Now why would I do that?

[He will.]

hey, im not saying u WILL. i just dont want people to hurt u over it. thats all.

Let them try, Jinx. This must be done to establish ourselves. More decisive moves need to be made to consolidate our power in this place.

what about the big wigs?

It's time they learned a new lesson about us.

listen. im behind u no matter what. whatever u wanna do. but this lesson iiiisnnnt gonna end with u kicking the bucket, right? i. i dont think i can take anymore. of that. no throwing urself into hungry mouths?

You know that I do whatever I can to avoid such an outcome, correct? The Council isn't one to take direct action against a Chosen. Another Chosen however....

chosen against another chosen. is that ur plan?

Pitting them against each other is not difficult, but I'd prefer to keep them complacent until the last moment. I want what the Council has, but no doubt some would oppose. I will take Aldrip as I took the undercity.

oh PLENTY of some will oppose. but hey, who am i to say "dont chase ur dreams", eh? i just got one teeny tiny condition.

And that is?
