Each day that goes by that we're waiting for something to happen is each day the Void gets closer to all of us. We lost all last month to fight against it due to the Black Shuck's orders, and now we're left scrambling to make up that lost time. Isn't that a bit too convenient for those who would have us die against our will, to squander the little time we've left?

I can't shake the feeling there's something more that's happening than we're being told, and more we ought to be doing than simply preparing. The least we could do for now is try to figure out what that is. If you've no experience with self-defense, then I can help with that; and if you have that, or at least some experience in finding your way through the woods without getting lost and setting off warning signs wherever you walk, then I suppose I'm your lieutenant, if you wish to scout our borders.

Either way we know something is stirring, and we'd better be prepared for it.

Mm. Pretty sure those compasses can see what we're saying on our network, but they don't have access to my networks at all. I wish I had one still to see if I could override the creator's magic, but it's gone.

[He's not even sure where Jason put it.] Thing is? I don't know if they're smart enough to actually check in on us. It might not occur to them at all.

[ Katsa's face darkens the moment Hiro says the compasses can likely see what's happening on the Unseelie side, though the rest of what he has to say comforts her a little bit. Still, she's glowering. ]

I bet you could. I bet you could override it.

I wonder if I could find one for you to see...

[ hmmmmmmm... ]

They are supremely focused on their own selves above anything else.

Katsa, don't bother. [As much as he'd like to, he'd rather not run the risk of Hermione finding out he's screwing around with her magic, not to mention the risk of Katsa getting in trouble for stealing a compass.] If anything, I'm thinking about upgrading a bunch of people on our side with devices connected to my network so even the compasses can't see what we're doing. Beat them at their own game, y'know?

[A pause.] Not that everybody else would have access to their side either. That'd get too suspicious. ...but they are. I mean we're all focused on goals, I get that, but it makes you wonder how much they really know about what's going on here. [He shakes his head.] Tell me how this one holds up. I'll start seeing what else I can figure out.

[Another pause.] Loki and I trust you with these devices. Use them well and let us know how they work.

[ she waves a hand and really doesn't take the "don't bother" to heart. unfortunately there's a bit of a personal motivation for besting something of hermione's, and if the chance ever arose she could still steal one. even if hiro chooses not to do anything with it.

but the part about the upgrade doesn't sound like a bad idea.

katsa's gears are turning and she's clearly thinking about something, her eyes narrowed and focused somewhere off into the distance rather than on hiro. how much do the seelie know? and would it be possible for her to find out?

...it's definitely possible. she just needs to decide on how.

she snaps out of it. ]

Don't worry. I've no thought or desire to put you in any harm's way, Hiro, and I'll be careful. I'll tell you what I find out with them. Can I meet you somewhere to collect it?

[On the one hand, if she did procure one he'd want to tamper with it just to see if there's anything he can draw inspiration from. On the other, it's still a risk and...Katsa's one of their strongest shardbearers, not to mention someone he admires very much. If something else happened to her? It wouldn't be worth it just for that.

But he also knows Katsa will do whatever Katsa wishes to do (much like he can be) and so he lets it slide, assuming if she finds something she'll come back to him. There's a reason he's locked this conversation from all prying eyes, Unseelie and Seelie, after all.]

I didn't think you would, really. [Hence the part about trusting her. Trust is a thing he's working on a lot lately, but he doesn't think twice about Katsa anymore.] Where are you right now? I, uh, kinda got the ban lifted so I can travel a little more easily? I'm out at Diasbaile right now.

[ She waves a hand. ]

Nowhere that you would easily find me. I'll come to you. When were your restrictions lifted? Did you do something heroic to earn it?

I kinda lifted them myself. It's a pretty long story...some people might call it heroic, but maybe it was a little stupid. I don't really regret it though. Anyway, I can meet you at the actual spire? It won't take me long to walk over there.

[ is it a good or a bad thing that sounds as though it could summarize a lot of katsa's escapades, too

...perhaps a bad thing ]

All right. Tell me about your stupid and heroic deed. I'll see you in a little while, Hiro.

You got it. I'll be waiting with your weapon and a story to match. [He flashes a bright grin at her before he cuts the feed completely.]
