IM conversation, Bridge and Domino
Jul. 29th, 2004 06:20 pmdisavowed13: Hey, Dom.
LadyLuck13: Hey, GW.
disavowed13: How's Nate?
LadyLuck13: Better. Pete had a go at him a couple of days ago, since you weren't around to do it and I'm a big softie. Not sure how much actually sank in, but at least he's not walking around claiming he killed forty-six innocent people on the weekend anymore.
disavowed13: Fuck. You didn't tell me he was doing that.
LadyLuck13: Didn't I? Well, I thought it was the obvious reaction... this is Nate we're talking about, after all, and everything and anything Mistra does is Entirely His Fault.
disavowed13: Yeah... you know, I'm still not sure why I let you talk me out of coming over there.
LadyLuck13: Because you, unlike the old man, are blessed with a certain amount of common sense, and knew that the last thing we needed was you getting yourself red-flagged coming into JFK or some such fucking thing.
disavowed13: Right.
LadyLuck13: Pbbth. Don't worry too much. Moira's watching him like a hawk and Xavier's very kindly relieved him of teaching duties for the time being. Remind me to tell you about the little rebellion the kids staged when he tried to pick up with classes on Monday - I was terribly impressed.
LadyLuck13: Oh, plus that therapist of his came yesterday. Nate seemed a lot more settled after they talked.
disavowed13: The therapist with the bugged office?
LadyLuck13: Be nice.
disavowed13: I am being nice. I'm just questioning his attitude towards security.
disavowed13: So how much longer are you planning on staying?
LadyLuck13: Through the weekend at least. Pete and his new friend and Nate and I are going to put our heads together and see what we can come up with. After that... not sure yet, GW. If we can come up with something that needs doing, I'm going to bat my eyelashes at Pete until he lets me help.
disavowed13: Mistra's IDed you, though. After you helped Nate fight off that last retrieval team...
LadyLuck13: I know that. Don't make that face - I know I'm not suited for anything terribly conspicuous, but there's got to be something.
disavowed13: So long as you don't try and force the issue.
LadyLuck13: I'm pissed, GW, I'm not stupid.
disavowed13: Good.
LadyLuck13: Bite me.
disavowed13: I can't, you're on the other side of the Atlantic.
LadyLuck13: Oh, hah.
disavowed13: I should go. Quickie job lined up in Serbia and we leave in a few hours.
LadyLuck13: Who's going?
disavowed13: David, Mina and I. We should be in and back out by the end of the weekend. Leave me a message if anything changes, okay?
LadyLuck13: Will do.
disavowed13: And don't forget to look after yourself while you're looking after him, all right?
LadyLuck13: Mother hen.
disavowed13: Someone needs to be.
