"About what? The entirety of the situation itself, what problems we may face besides Bria's ex, or the storm that is yet to pass?" She asked, surveying the area with her thermal vision. "Because I'll tell you now, this guild could learn a thing or two about being more prepared for facing future issues. It's better to be safe than sorry... I should know that better than anyone." A slightly bitter chuckle, barely audible - but Rick would be able to hear it.

"All right then, let's get to work," Kai said as he took his bags to the kitchen before quickly grabbing an apron and putting it on. "Rick said he wanted to help but he went all scouter on us."

Rick nodded at this. "The entire tactical situation around us. Breach points, possible weaknesses, escape routes." He remarked. "And you're right, we need to be more prepared."

Juliet nodded. She couldn't say no to him. "I'll let you see some of my most recent stuff when we have some free time." She promised. Juliet made a mental note to re-read anything before Nova saw it. For... reasons.

Ant rolled his eyes. "Not shocked."

Hazel frowned. 'Get a new gimmick,' she bitterly thought.

"Well, regarding the man from today... If he's not bluffing about the 'knowing-where-Bria-is-at-all-times' thing, I might have a strategy that could work..." She paused. "Regarding the incognito work in the ring, that's a different story. But it's nothing I'm not used to." She tossed a shuriken behind her effortlessly, nailing a street rat in between the eyes. "What's one more to the body count, am I wrong?"

Rick nodded. It made enough sense to him. "Agreed. We figure out how to make Bria not feel the pain. And then... we ice him. Preferably quietly somehow. Slit his throat, dump the body in the ocean. Easy enough." He remarked idly, as if he was talking about the weather.

Arms would wrap around Hazel's neck tenderly. "I don't have to."

Magog was in her form she had taken during the battle in the city, floating weightlessly in the air and visible only to Hazel. She was using an eerie combination of Eve's and Hazel's own voices, modulating between the two. "I'm with you, Hazel. Every touch. Every movement. Every thought."

"I know you better than anyone. I know your deep, dark secrets... and I share one thing with you that no one else does."

"I don't know whether or not Juliet would be thrilled with the idea, but..." She lowered her voice a little, retrieving the bloodied shuriken from the dead man now slumped in the blackened alleyway. "I'm thinking the pain link is a seal of some sort. Probably like the one I had for ten years." Another humorless laugh. "She's the most qualified to slip into either his, or Bria's mind and disable it. Either way, that....man needs to die. This is starting to feel like deja vu for me."

Rick shrugged. "I'm sure Juliet would be glad to help once the situation was explained to her." He said with a smile. "Because you're right, it's definitely a power that's in her wheelhouse to solve..." Rick nodded sadly, placing a gentle arm around his sister's shoulders. "Zed's dead." He promised.

Without a moment to think, Hazel immediately got up from her seat a stormed out of the room. Magog was starting to come too far.

Ant simply watched as this happened. "Uh..."

Magog's voice was still with Hazel. "I'm not letting her go, Hazel. Not until you give me what I want."

"Almost feels like an out-of-body experience, seeing it happen to someone else. Like I'm nothing but an astral projection." She admitted in a flat tone. "He'll never be dead, you of all people should know that. No matter how many times you kill him... He's still left his mark, hasn't he?"

"What do you want?" Hazel asked out loud, her voice full of venom. A well trained ear would be able to hear her from within the apartment.

"But he didn't win. That's the most important thing." Rick said sagely.

If Magog had materialized, she would have grinned. "YOU."

To Yui, whose sense of hearing was extremely and finely attuned, she actually flinched, concentration breaking. It was as if the girl had screamed in her ears, from where she was sitting.

Which was a rather lengthy distance for such a volume.

'Is she okay?" Bria asked the others. She was really confused. "Maybe I should go check on her." she then went to go check on Hazel. "You okay?"

Kari smiled and thanked Kai before hearing Hazel. She frowned. She then proceeded to hand Yui a juicebox.

"Do you want to watch me make these or do you prefer to keep reading?" she asked the little girl.

"Ow," she muttered, rubbing her head. "Please tell Hazel to stop screaming in my ear, this noise is giving me a migraine."
