And she'd like help with keeping running.

Permalink

Kaz gives her the name of a ship and captain that's heading south. Mention her name and the captain will give her passage at least past the straits.

Permalink

She's extremely grateful.

Permalink

She can pay Kaz back if she's ever in the True Sea again.

Permalink

She doubts she's coming back.

Permalink

Well. Keep it in mind.

Permalink

Sure, whatever. 

Permalink

Then back to check on her other assets.

Permalink

Inej has gotten leads on a spider to plant the bombs.

Permalink

Jesper's late getting back, but - he thinks he's brought their new chemist around. 

Permalink

Good progress on all fronts, then.

Permalink

Definitely. 

They'll be ready to leave, soon. 

Permalink

The sooner, the better.

Permalink

Do they have a ship lined up? 

Permalink

Three berths on a regular trader.

Permalink

"Let's get to it, then."

Permalink

Kaz nods. "Indeed."

Permalink

Inej, of course, takes to the shadows on the rooftops as they travel. 

Permalink

Which leave Kaz and Jesper to watch the crowd from street level.

Permalink

And, as they're cutting through a deserted part of the shipyards - 

Several men step out of the alleyways in front of and behind them.

Permalink

Oh here we go.

Kaz tightens her grip on her cane.

Permalink

Jesper sighs and loosens his revolvers in their holsters. "Evening, gentlemen."

Permalink

They close around the two, weapons - clubs, mostly - drawn. 

"Where's your little shadow?" one of their apparent leaders calls, and - yep, he's one of the Dime Lions.

Permalink

"I'd've thought you people would have learned to figure that out before showing yourselves by now." She tilts her head. "But then, I suppose you are Dime Lions. I need to manage my expectations."

Permalink

There are, perhaps, slightly fewer of them than most might bring to a beat down like this - six shapes moving in the shadows, including the leader, and he is, perhaps, now noticing this. 

"I'd've thought you'd know not to cross Pekka Rollins," is all he says.
