He almost said 'Footsteps,' but bit it back. "Figured you'd need somebody who knew how to keep a level head. If I left it up to you and Script, all you'd do is make-out and cry." -- ((YES! I've been waiting for her, but she hasn't been on  )) |

"Again," said Goblin with a smirk, "thanks for the vote of confidence."
((Tuesdays are busy for her, I think--I'm sure she'll return to us!))

He smirked. "You disagree with the assessment that all you two have done together since you've been here is make-out and cry?"
((Oh, that's right! She has dance on Tuesdays! Tomorrow, then, I guess. Oh, man, I'm dying!))

"We've been here for one night! It's an adjustment period. She's never done anything like this," Goblin reminded him. For a moment, he wistfully imagined having Clara in here, sneaking around and spying on people like only she could--but he would never expose his sister to any kind of danger or abuse again. Not for the sake of any plan.
((Aww! Hang in there. ^_^ <3))

Cav smirked. "Uh huh. So it's not 'cause you have a hot girlfriend who cries a lot?"

"It's my fault she's crying!" Goblin snapped. "She's not usually like this. She's usually happy, and friendly, and...baking." Okay, so Cav was right about one thing. He really, truly never should have gotten involved with her.

Cav put his hands up in mock-defense. "Whoa, Gob, chill out. I'm sure she'll go back to all of those things after this is over." He shrugged. "Whether or not that's with you, well...guess that's up to you, huh?"

"You know what? We're getting this plan off the ground so we can talk about something other than my doomed love life." He glanced around and lowered his voice. "D'you know who's behind it all--the thing with the girls, I mean?"

He shook his head. "I figure someone in the Points, since that guy -- we need to find out his name, by the way -- said something once about going back there. Why? Do you know?"

He hesitated a few seconds, but Cav already knew enough to doom him and Script if he wanted to. In for a penny, in for a pound. "Ever heard of Monk Eastman?"

He arched a brow. "The gang leader?" He snorted. "Figures. The guy runs a bunch of brothels. That's why they're takin' the girls."

He nodded. "I've got people in Five Points--or they should be soon--who'll be working on things from that end. If any girls get taken away while I'm here, I'll send them a message, see if they can launch a rescue mission." The messenger in question was supposed to show up at the window tomorrow night, and every few nights thereafter, and he was absurdly eager to see her. Wraith was going to be his only link to home for however long this took.

Cav nodded, but arched a brow. "A rescue mission? You're gonna infiltrate the Eastman gang and take one of their girls away?"

"Depends on the girl," Goblin said frankly, wondering how Cav would react if it were Footsteps who vanished one day.

Cav met his eyes, wondering the same thing. He decided that, if Footsteps were taken, he would effectively go ape-shit. "Who's your messenger?"
