"A litmus test for Brenda as well? mmm"

"It would serve as such. You can convince Brenda that our mission goals are her own?"

"Honey, she's angry, and a part of her wants to someone to ggive her lead. A week and I could have as a pretty nice mistress to you on the side spying for you. A month? I could have her slitin sidhe throats"

"I'm willing to wait." with a gleam in his eye.

"There's Kyle, however. Can you work your magic on him?"

"He'll take longer.." She observes

"Too long?"

"How fast do we need him?" She inquires

"Mm." considering "Do you think their relationship will support divergent paths? If she does this, will he support her, or turn away? And, if she knows that answer will she still wish to participate?"

"I think it's all in the way of HOW we approach itt.. a part of him looks for the work around, the way to rig things... if we can appeal to that.. mmm"

"Rig things in who's favor?"

"Well, he wants to rig things for his gain, like anyone I guess."

"And how would destroying Jeomry profit him...." thinking aloud.

"Closure for his wife?"

"Avoid his son's fate for others, a sense of protecting others...."

"Mm yes... help him realize it's very much a guardian thing to do"

"Does it seem to you that either of them have a loyalty to that Barony the son was fostered at?"

"I think they are fond of individuals..but loyal? Not truly."

"That's good."

"So... you'll touch base with the Thomases and offer to help them help themselves?"

"I will.. now, about dessert.."

"Yeeeesssss?" with a smile.

"Chocolate mousse or Baked Alaska?"

"Ooo... chocolate."

A kiss "I'll get it right away" and she turns, offering a view of her firm rear as she goes to do so

"Take your time...." he watches with appreciation.

That gets added swish

and soon, he's enjoying chocolate mousse
