IC II: DH The Purity of Sacrifice

[BananaPhone]

Marcella

Orla tries not to chuckle. She considered that getting into a relationship with a psyker might be dangerous, but when they were both psykers maybe they nothing to worry about from the other. 'That can still be fun sometimes if you know what you're getting into. Just remember that you're using him as well and don't go getting feelings.' Orla considered whether Marcella was likely to be able to do that. 'If he upsets you anyway maybe we can arrest him.'

Marcella's blush returns, and deepens in its shade of red.

"Me?!" she asked with humorous incredulity, "no no, I meant for you! Hehe"

"For me? Hm, no, I don't know if they'd let me..."

'If he upsets you anyway maybe we can arrest him.'

For the first time in her company, Marcella laughed, a genuine laugh, while covering her mouth with her hand.

"You! You're under arrest for being too damn handsome - hehe!"

oOo

"If there are no new leads, then it appears our best option is to follow up on Acolyte Arl's work in infiltrating Casmirre's expeditions, and hope that new leads will reveal themselves," he added.

Marc said nothing, but remained standing there in observation. However, she could not deny a ping of excitement resonate within her over the prosect of getting on a ship again. It had been so long!
