"We found a place by the way. And this should help persuade the current owners." Virgil tosses him the reward money and a paper with the housing information on it. "Did you sell Rose off?" He says with an eyebrow raise, glancing at the coin and folding the book after assuring a marker is in place so he does not lose the spot. He glances at Rose, eyes narrowing ever so slightly when he notices the burn on her arm. Rose's eyes dart away from Caerus, she tries to hide the brand. |

"We'res'posedtosticktogether!" Kai only gives Caerus a glance when he enters and then leaves. "If I had stayed she would have still been taken and I would be executed on the spot. I took a serious risk just entering that damn house." "Did they know you?" |

"If I had stayed she would have still been taken and I would be executed on the spot. I took a serious risk just entering that damn house." His eyes narrow with Virgil as the target this time. "You really do not understand the concept of a partnership do you? Nor the deterring value of a male escort with a woman." "Me versus a Belial by the looks of it. I don't like those odds. Even as a guest in another mans house." |

Did you even bother to get help? Or do you usually toss people in with mages for fun?" He sneers. |

The Blades work with partners - regardless of how irrational or stupid your partner is behaving. There are responsibilities. Obligations implied by teamwork if nothing else than by the fact you have known each other for bloody well over a year and should be friends. Spare me your callous pretenses at pretending to give a damn. Words and warnings mean nothing - actions tell, boy." He lets out a slow angry sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose. |

Rose dares to glance back at Caerus, waiting for her turn to be yelled at. She didn't believe it was all Virgil's fault. She was stubborn as all hell... |

Virgil deflates a bit "well I guess i best find a way to fix my failure. Yes?" "Some failures cannot be fixed, Virgil. She could be dead. Consider that in the future." He looks at Rose then, expression serious and still a bit fiery although his tone is normal. "Are you all right? I see Virgil has attended to you at least?" |

'I'm fine' says the one with a handprint on her arm - seared in by magic?" His lip curls. "What the hell were you thinking? Did you even consider you could have been killed or gotten Virgil killed? What arrogance to send off your partner and what foolishness to risk our task in such an endeavour?!" |

Tears threaten to spill. |

If there is anything more I should to to repay what you had to go through alone please let me know. But right now I must attend to something very important." With that Virgil heads back into the city. |

We should act fast to reduce the risk of exposure." He blocks the doorway before Virgil can leave. "I think in light of events we should not be traveling alone - everyone should debrief first. Kairos - where is Abrus?" |
