[X-World] News From The Other Side

Postby Miranda Weaver » Sat Feb 14, 2015 12:04 am

Miranda had taken her time to scout around some more. No sense in wasting the time. Then she'd returned to the hideout just before nightfall, opting to land a block or two away and walk in on foot rather than fly straight there. "I'm back," she called out as she came back in.

"We're outside." Jennifer's voice comes from where she and Theresa are sitting in the rain, the water running down Jennifer's forcefield that she placed in a half-sphere above them.

Miranda walked closer to where they were, stopping next to the force field. "How's she doing?"

Theresa was sitting quietly, petting Mister Monkey.

"Pretty well." she says, pointing her palm towards Miranda and opening part of the forcefield. "You won't believe who we heard from."

"You stole my line," Miranda said with a laugh, stepping through the opening. "But your news first."

"Vertie send a message." she says, pointing at the monkey and the patch that's now on Theresa's shoulder.

"Let me guess, she's at the zoo?" Miranda asked, looking at the monkey.

"That's going to be tricky, but if anyone could do it, it would be the two of them," Miranda said. "You remember Vivienne?"

"Vaguely. She was one of the college students, right?"

Miranda nodded, sitting next to Jennifer. "She had that sword in the ground out by the lighthouse. She was... is... the daughter of the Lady of the Lake. Whole slew of crazy fey stuff. I ran into her at one of the marinas."

"Just what we needed, more magical crap. But that's good, means the water-sprites or whatever aren't a problem, right?"

"Yeah, they're hers and they're actually cleaning up some of what they can. Apparently things tore between the fey dimension and here too. So she's been rescuing what good fey she can and gathering them in one place. She's got some working on salvaging us a boat."

"For once, yeah. She's as stranded here as we are. Apparently her mother managed to make most of the tears only work one way. Unfortunately that one way is from there to here. So both she and the other fey can't go home. She seemed pretty eager to play nice and I trust her to be pretty reasonable."

"If she can help keep things calm she can have the harbors and the river for all I care. More people to keep an eye on parts of the city and maybe we can figure out something long-term. Hunting down people and things that try to fuck with things is well and good, but we can only be in so many places at once."

"Agreed. She's more or less claimed the river and promised the Underground to some of her people. I didn't want to start an argument, but she's agreed to discuss it with me before she promises anything to anyone else."

She leaned over to look at Theresa and then back at Jennifer, "Did she recognize Brigid at all?"

"Kind of? I don't know if she recognized her as Brigid or just someone vaguely familiar, but she told her to stay safe and hugged her, so that was pretty huge either way."

"Who knows, maybe things are looking up." she says, staring up at where the rain is falling against her force-field.
