Me: Got eyes on Katina?

Maverick: She’s watching Naruto.

Me: I fucking hate that fox.

Me: And Alessa? Is she nearby?

Maverick: She’s in West Orange.

Me: You need to bring her home. Lock her down.

Maverick: You’re not talking bondage, are you?

Me: Wish I were.

Maverick: What’s going on?

Me: Bad feeling.

Maverick: Bull. What. Is. Going. On?

Me: It sounds insane.

Maverick: Already think you are. Still trust you. Talk to me.

Me: I just found out that Katina was steered in my direction.

Maverick: Huh? By a social worker or something? You fostered her, no?

Me: I did. It’s a long story but to cut it short, if you remember, her mom was a Sparrow bride?

Maverick: That’s what we’re calling them now?

Me: Yeah. I found her details in this manifesto and when I looked into her, I found Kat.

Maverick: As easy as pie, huh?

Me: Nah. Took some wrangling. But the manifesto that I came across, I thought was just by chance. It wasn’t.

Me: You need to lock them both down. Just to be on the safe side.

Maverick: You fostered her years ago.

Me: I know. But I’m rattling cages. Who knows what locks will fall open?

Maverick: True. I’ll bring them in. Alessa’s a homebody anyway and Kati’s calmed down now that she’s heard from you. I’ll go to her gymnastics practice myself. Will bring Link with me for extra security.

Me: Perfect. Thanks, Mav.

Me: You heard of Operation: Jorgmundgander?

Maverick: Sounds like a video game.

Me: Wish it were.

Maverick: What is it?
