Morgan doesn't strictly need to sleep. Even if she didn't want to put up with the annoyance of constantly having a caffeine buzz and having to ask for coffee on almost every summon, there are naps. Naps can keep a daeva going for quite a long time.
But there's something unutterably pleasant about curling up in a proper bed in pajamas and just sleeping. And then waking up and getting breakfast in those pajamas. So she does that, because immortality's a long unpleasant time if you don't enjoy the little things every now and then. Like adorable bunny slippers and soft pajamas and sleeping in.
She's midway through a fruity salad thing that counts as the standard fairy breakfast when she feels the summon. Showing up to a summon in pajamas? Eh. If they're proper summoners she bets they've seen worse, and she doesn't particularly care if they think she's unprofessional.
She puts her spoon down and accepts the summon.

He sighs. "With that in mind, then... I wish you the best of luck, and hope we don't have to waste the very same resources Glam is making us waste on you."

"I am really not the type to pull petty pranks at that scale," she says dryly. "But yes, point taken."

Pause.
"Is this a good time to mention my current solution to the third-world-country warlord problem?"

"No. Well, yes, but probably not immediately, I don't want to let a bunch of criminals at a place that has no law enforcement and tell them to go nuts, but. I mean. Is it illegal to become a warlord?"
"...unless you're planning on violating international law or committing crimes against humanity, the word 'illegal' will have a hard time applying to anything you do at one of those places."
"I can't officially endorse this plan. That said, I can't say creating more parahuman organizations and helping stabilize the world is something that would make me unhappy." He scratches his chin. "It might even be one of the best possible uses of your time, in particular."

Morgan smiles. "I do get the impression that tripping over the Protectorate and skirting the edge of illegal regularly trying to salvage all parahumans that can be salvaged is quite untenable."
"...somewhat complicated. The Birdcage is an international facility, and most countries have laws and agreements about sending people there. When such is not in place, parahumans are treated on a case by case basis."

"So it is not 'Morgan's personal jail when she becomes a warlord' but neither is it completely off-limits. That's about what I expected."

"Do you have unofficial recommendations for which currently-in-chaos place I should go be a warlord at? Africa's got the natural resources and more general freedom, but Japan was more accustomed to high technology before its fall."
He nods, and stands up. "I should debrief with the rest of the team. They're pretty sure you know more about Glam's power and have just told me all about it." Pause. "Do you?"

"I have some suspicions," she says. She will not lie to Legend's face. "But I think if I told you how I think it works, they'd never trust me again and I'd lose them entirely."
Legend sighs. "We've gone through so many suspicions we don't even know what to suspect anymore. But I understand. Good luck with them."
