Hi! Before you read this story, make sure you've read the first story in this series. Also, this story takes place in an alternate timeline of 'Mechanisms of Rule'. In particular, you'd be well-advised to have read the standalone stories 'Shore Leave' and 'Self-Enchanted Empire'. Just like how the first story's prequel is 'To Amaranth', those two stories enrich and support the story being told here.

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [LAMBDA]! To what do I owe the pleas--

[LAMBDA]: There's a problem at [MOCKINGBIRD].

[BRIGHTSTAR]: Someone's hasty. Regretting not following me upstairs that night? Is this problem one that you want me to relieve personally?

[LAMBDA]: [loud clearing of throat, long silence] There's a security breach.

[BRIGHTSTAR]: Is there now?

[LAMBDA]: I just had a run in with [ZETA].

[BRIGHTSTAR]: I see.

[LAMBDA]: We both know why that's not something that can happen, yes?

[BRIGHTSTAR]: We do. Does [ZETA] suspect that you've any doubts?

[LAMBDA]: No. She's too busy...enjoying herself with her newest Hound. A pilot we recently captured.

[BRIGHTSTAR]: Oh? Well now. That's interesting.

[LAMBDA]: Is that all you have to say? It's perverse.

[BRIGHTSTAR]: Yes, it is. Not that you're one who's free of that.

[LAMBDA]: I-I...

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [LAMBDA]. Ask me to help.

[LAMBDA]: I have to ask?

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [indecipherable noise] Yes, you do.

[LAMBDA]: Can you help?

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [indecipherable noise] Mmm. I could.

[LAMBDA]: Is there a cost?

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [indecipherable noise] Next time I give you my room key, I expect to hear you knocking. Maybe wear one of those little vintage dresses your brother says you're so fond of.

[LAMBDA]: ...that noise. Are you...?

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [indecipherable noise] I want to see what it'd look like hiked up around your hips.

[LAMBDA]: I could just report this to--

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [indecipherable noise] Mm? To who? And risk your precious [ANGEL] getting transferred?

[LAMBDA]: You...she's...

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [indecipherable noise] She's yours. If you're mine.

[LAMBDA]: But...

[BRIGHTSTAR]: [indecipherable noise] Tell me you understand.

[LAMBDA]: I...understand.

[BRIGHTSTAR]: Yessss. [indecipherable noise ceases] Good. I'm so proud of how our little [ZETA]'s turned out. Do nothing. I'm sending an...envoy for you.
