Inevitable sounds like a funny word from where we’re standing.
Your Jowd’s being the usual waste of space? Who’s on the case?
The police have been informed. They were on the case before we left. Considerin’ you’re our nation’s finest or whatever it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s involved. Dunno ‘bout the Inspector—see I haven’t bothered to look into any of this but I’ve been keepin’ an eye on the news.
On the other hand:

I wouldn’t trust those guys either.
The problem with the news is, they’re not very accurate. I still want to help, for Apollo’s sake if nothing else, but I’m not sure what help I can be without the case files at least.
rubrumirae:
Because I’m not used to you as a woman.

And I thought it’d be a good time for a stupid question.
“Still a Jowd, still a detective, still mother of one, still married to the first target of your pointless revenge, still Lynne’s mentor, move on if there aren’t any significant changes from your world, get out if you’re still planning to kill anybody. Simple and clean.”

And that’s as far as the constants she’s observed go, right? Right.
Surrounded by Yomiels. Again.

Where’s my lady when I need her.
thelivingred:
Hey ya know how impressive those odds are to be served a space rock in the first place I’m the luckiest person on the whole damn planet.
And funny you should ask. I dunno lady maybe I’m delaying the inevitable. I haven’t heard anythin’ lately, s’been quiet.

rubrumirae:
… Tch.

I was going to ask you where your beard’s gone.
“Lost a bet the other day, why’d you ask?”

rubrumirae:

…
……

Jowd?

“Look what the cat dragged in. Yomiel!”
(that’s no Sissel, is he. Unless some me managed to piss off one of them pretty bad…)
thelivingred:
yeah. Not that I’d think you’d be a little miss sunshine or anythin’ but it still surprises me.
I didn’t fight for this life, just someone elses’.
I fought for a chance to die, and it’s better than what I deserve. It’s a goddamn treat.
What do you know. If you’re lucky, the gods will throw a proper rock at you this time.
Is the someone else safe yet?
