Unlawful Detention

[theanguissette]

 I...fear that I have unknowingly broken some law or accord...

I am being taken into custody....Arrested. I know not yet under what charge.

[There is a thread of panic running under the thought.]

assuming this is not happening exactly when the matthew incident is

[thornsofmalkav]

Oh motherfucker.

Are you in transit? In an interrogation room? Oh god.

[theanguissette]

I have been placed in what they call a holding cell. Escape does not seem possible or likely, and they have taken my shoes and my library, to prevent me using them as weapons.

[thornsofmalkav]

Jesus. Yeah, okay, I can see how that... yeah.

[Well, she can see how they'd take away an eReader or a phone to search through, anyway, and as for the shoes being weapons... oh god, Phedre probably wears heels, doesn't she.]

Okay. Uh. We're going to get you out, Phedre. Just give us a little time.

[theanguissette]

Time is all that I have. At least this time, I have this. I can speak to you. Others. I will not go mad for being forced into a lonely prison again.

Thank you, Miss Thorne...

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah. We'll be here to talk whenever you need us.

... you said to Joscelin that it was the Manticore building, right? Ugh, their security is going to be tight. It's definitely gonna take a while to plan this.

We're gonna get you out, though. Promise.

[theanguissette]

Thank you, Miss Thorne. I have the utmost confidence that I shall not be forced to remain here one moment longer than I must.

[thornsofmalkav]

[... is that sarcasm? She can never tell with Phedre.]

Uh. Sure.

... you don't have to call me 'Miss,' though. Just Thorne is fine. I mean, if we go by Jaunt relationships, I'm your former sister-in-law.

[Ha. Ha ha.]
