I heard from my source. We can expect no immediate repercussions. This is like the incident last November - apparently Magneto's written this off as a failed plan and is moving on for now. We can scale down our security measures, and I'll make that announcement as soon as I've sent this to you.
I should explain. I really should. You both trusted me, when I told you that the information on the Tampa house could be trusted absolutely, and I'm asking you to trust me again here. And yes, I know neither of you would demand the explanation, but I should give it.
My source is Pietro Maximoff. Wanda's brother. I say source, but that may be stretching it. Pietro is looking for a way to manuever his father into a position where he can be taken down without horrific loss of life and massive property damage. He sees us as the ones who can step in to help him when the time's right. In the interim, he's willing to provide us with information when we need it or he needs us. I was unable to get in contact with him right away this time - I'm not sure what Magneto had him off doing, but once he did get in touch I got the information we needed about Tampa plus what's a pretty heartfelt apology, especially coming from Pietro.
So now you know. He'll only talk to me, currently - someday, I'll tell you the story of how we met and how this little arrangement came about - but now you know why the information is good.

PS: Oh, and I'm leaving. I was waiting to hear back - now I have, and Jean and I are getting out of here for a few days. I am not allowing what she had to do for Lorna to be the straw that broke the camel's back. Nervous breakdowns are not a couples bonding activity.
PPS: Also, did I mention that we're postponing the wedding?
