Gracious, one might almost believe that we were playing hide-and-seek.

[ Felix drawls. The words are carefully picked with a leisured scorn, but they don’t do much to hide his growing flush ... or the twigs and leaves tangled in his hair. A fat green caterpillar inches its way across a shoulder, and something chitters from out view.

The heavy trees of La Llorona droop dark over the little path behind him, their branches like so many grasping fingers. He can't be very far into the forest, but the way is overgrown, and the trail plainly disused.

As far as Felix is concerned, it’s still the ninth month, and he’s still traveling to the Station with a troll and a god in tow. ]

[ Erik is finding this endlessly amusing, but Adler? He's sure that Lord would just love to help. ]

[ Felix rolls his eyes -- though he's at least polite enough to do so out of the locket's view. Adler's been interesting, but he's not in much mood to chase the dog's tail, polite greeting or not.

Better to cut to it. He flicks the channel of communications to private. ]

Time enough to spare upon that meeting we spoke of?

[ Months ago, though Felix is only now beginning to comprehend that. ]

Perhaps in a more hospitable setting.

[ And that, he'll leave Adler to define. The woman's been coy enough about her allegiances, so let her choose the location. Mildmay would think him an idiot for it, but Felix is less frightened of ambush than he is bored of games. ]

I could certainly manage that. I cannot see why, since you have always been so civil to me.

[ He'll just send Morgana. ]

Neutral ground, maybe.
