[The sound of chattering is heard first as Cassian makes his way through the crowded London streets.]

I need transport to a different world, if someone's available.

//Private to Roze//

Still got that room set up for me?

//Private to Jezebel//

Doctor, I've left Delilah...you know what that means.

...I want you to come with me. Please.

I know you're gone. I'm glad you took your chance to leave.

But you know what you're asking isn't possible.

[deathstrumpcard]

[There's a small sound of annoyance from Cassian's end and a pause.]

It's not impossible. We can leave...and we don't have to look back.

[delilahs_reaper]

It isn't. My place is here. It's always been here.

I'm glad you are taking your chance to be rid of this place. But you must have known I wouldn't be able to follow.

[deathstrumpcard]

You don't-

[...]

I was hoping you'd changed your mind.

...can you do me a favor?

[delilahs_reaper]

It's not something I can change my mind about, Cassian. It's just something that is.

What is it?

[deathstrumpcard]

[Bullshit.]

Don't do anything to get yourself killed 'till I can come back and save you.

[delilahs_reaper]

[Not to him, sadly.]

[He smiles slightly at the request.] I'll try not to. I'll do my best.

[deathstrumpcard]

I hope you do. I won't be long.

[Just long enough for things to get quiet again.]

[delilahs_reaper]

Take your time. Just...just enjoy the life you have now.

[deathstrumpcard]

I hope you understand...I can't. Not yet.

I still have something to do.

[delilahs_reaper]

What is it, then? [It better not be rescuing him.]

[deathstrumpcard]

I think you already know.

[Too bad. It is.]

[delilahs_reaper]

[GODDAMMIT CASSIAN]

I think you should forget about me.

[deathstrumpcard]

Good thing that's not your call.

[HE DOESN'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO YOUR ORDERS ANYMORE.]

[delilahs_reaper]

Perhaps.

But you cannot make me leave here, either.

[OH FOR FUCK'S SAKE D:]

[deathstrumpcard]

[GODDAMMIT Jezebel. >:| ]

Maybe not...but that doesn't mean I'll quit trying.

[Or h could, like, kidnap you. that could work.]

[delilahs_reaper]

[Nooooo no kidnapping. He'll only try to escape.]

Don't waste time on me when you could be enjoying your new life. You have what you should have had a long time ago, so go take what's yours.

[deathstrumpcard]

[You'll be kidnapped and you'll like it!!!]

You're right, it is my new life. That means I'll do with it what I like.

[And he is totally planning on taking what's his]

[delilahs_reaper]

[O-oh Cassian so possessive]

You're too stubborn.

[deathstrumpcard]

[He could say something here...but it would be mean and start a fight. So he won't.]

Probably.

I'll talk to you again.

[delilahs_reaper]

...very well. I'll talk to you again, then.
