"Thank you for your help, Father, though I fear its more regret than grief. We had never met before, though it isn't a death I would wish upon anyone." Quicksilver shook the offered hand and looked to the alter, eyes passing over a few heads bent in prayer. Something about churches and pri...

"Me? No, I wouldn't make a very good one and you look like you've had your fill of them already. Just someone who wishes Mr. McBride wasn't dead, I was hoping to talk to him."

Quicksilver smiled at the large priest, trying to guage his reaction to her.

Quicksilver leaned against the rough wall at the corner, the slumped body of the shaman revealing his awareness was elsewhere. Nekekami would do what he did best, and she would stay here. A complete lack of tension, a casual slide of eyes in a certain direction, there was much to be said for trainin...

Quicksilver followed the plan, testing the new features Sabrina had installed on the bike, and veering off with Smoke and Abe as Nekekami went to map out Gray's place. Things were stacking up in a manner of a maze that hovered just outside her conciousness. Gray vs the Johnson, Gryce, Firewatch, Mar...

"Damnit Kami...." Quicksilver sighed, conciously trying to keep the stress from tensing her muscles. "Get me the info on McBride by tomorrow's meeting. Regardless of what he says, I will go with you, I will get the data, and I will help you get to Gray. Whether I stick around to see w...

Quicksilver's eyebrow twitched and she calmly set the glass down before staring at Gryce. "I don't care if it matters to you, it matters to me and unlike some people I never stop thinking about a job, I learned a long time ago that following anyone without a damn good reason is a good way to di...

Quicksilver offhandly chucked a beer at Abe, eyes narrowed and locked onto the spot where the black truck sat outside when Kali entered, completely ignoring their new arrival. "How much does Kees like you, 'Kami? 1,000¥? 10,000¥? Is this place worth more than that? "

Quicksilver nodded and left the bike to Nekekami. Walking inside, she took in her surroundings with the aim of looking for all the areas that could hold surprises. Still running a critical eye over the place, she noted a few seats and made her way to the bar to look for the bartender or someone.

She watched Marcus leave, a quiet smile on her face. He'd be fine out there for a few hours, maybe a few days. She grabbed her phone as she walked over to the table where Marcus had left the necklace, and punched Nekekami's number.
