He skimmed through his phone contacts, searching for her number. It's been a while since he last spoke with his old friend Mrs Carter. Their arranged meeting at The Mad Hatter was memorable, but nothing really came from it. The meeting with Alessandra went how every other encounter with her went; just a mildly heated exchange of different opinions. It wasn't a lovers quarrel and it wasn't one of those huge BFF breakup scenes, just he and Alessandra doing what they usually did when in each other's company: disagree with each other. Now there was more important things to discuss. There were non-debatable facts that needed to be shared with his Kinswoman. He didn't expect any heated debate or that this encounter would be anything like their last. In fact, he assumed this encounter would actually play out more smoothly than their last. There was a feeling that he now needed to keep Mrs Carter closer to him than she would probably prefer to be, but this was for the best. He selected her name and then studied the fingernail of the finger he used to dial her. He thought he noticed dirt, but the nail was just as clean as the rest of them were. He listened as the ringer buzzed in his ear. Once he heard a greeting from her, he replied back. "Alessandra? Hi, it's Marcus." though she probably knew that already. Surely whatever name she had his contacts stored under displayed on her mobile device. "How is your evening?" He felt it was important to question the attitude of Mrs Carter before he decided to continue. |

The sound of her phone ringing made Lessa jump. Retrieving it from the corner she had thrown it into the last time she had tried to reach Oliver, she couldn't help but be hopeful. Until she saw the number. Dammit! Okay, not fair. It was hardly Marcus's fault that he was not the person she wanted, no NEEDED to hear from. And who knew - maybe he could tell her something... anything. "Good evening, Marcus. My evening is... about as well as can be expected these nights." Which was to say a steaming pile of shit. But she wasn't going to share that with him. |

She sounded pleasant enough, so he continued. "Well, I'm happy to hear that. As long as you're doing well. I'm sorry for the sudden call, but I haven't heard from you in a while. I was concerned. I just wanted to know if everything was okay." he gave a short pause. "Everything is okay, isn't it?" There were changes happening in London that regarded them both. If Mrs Carter was aware of some of those changes, then that would be a good thing. Hopefully she was dealing with those changes already and it would be easier to talk about them later. But over the phone wasn't the place for that. "I was hoping we could get together soon. Nothing like last time, I assure you, but I think we should talk soon. Is there a place you would prefer or..?" he gave another short pause. "Of course, the Clermont Club is always at our leisure. I'd actually prefer to speak with you there. Would that be okay? Eleven tomorrow evening? Will you come?" He wanted her to come; he hoped she would. He wanted to see her again. |

Lessa forced a cheerfulness she didn't feel into her voice. Fake it until you make it. "Of course, Marcus. Everything is fine. Sorry for being pretty much MIA, lately. I've been spending even more time than usual at the hospital." It wasn't actually a lie. Though it also wasn't for the reason it should have been for. She'd been rather lax in ruling her Domain. But the babies helped to keep her calm, and took her mind off of... everything else. From Lessa's perspective, her options were Muse, the Hatter, or the hospital. Or her own home but... no. That was definitely not an option. And so his offer of the Clermont Club as a meeting place was jumped at. Yes, it would give him home field advantage if things went badly, but it also gave her the option of walking out. "The Clermont is fine. And tomorrow works. I'll see you then." |

She sounded very content over the phone. It made Marcus flash an embarrassing smile and give an unnoticed head nod at Mrs Carter through the phone. "Wonderful. I'm happy. I'll see you tomorrow then, Alessandra. Please, enjoy the remainder of your evening." Marcus gave another grinning nod to Alessandra before finally hanging up from his end. Judging by her pleasantness, he figured her to be clueless to the few changes to their clan. |

"And you as well, Marcus." She waited until he hung up, then put the phone down with a sigh. She already knew of at least two things he probably wanted to talk about. And in fact, probably knew them before he did. The question was, was she going to pretend to be surprised by them? |
