Alessa:She’d love that.

Lodestar:Lol. She would. That would be great.

Maverick:Sin? He liaises with the Five Points anyway.

Lodestar:No. There’s nothing to liaise with as of yet. Link would be fine. He doesn’t have to stay once she’s dropped off.

Maverick:Will you send her back the same night?

Lodestar:Very likely. But she’ll be fine without Link. Conor would never let anyone hurt Katina.

Maverick:That much faith in him?

Lodestar:I love him, Jameson.

Maverick:You mean business if you’re bringing out my real name.

Lodestar:I just wanted you to know it’s serious. When things are settled down, I’m going to move in with him.

Alessa:It’s not far from our house to Manhattan. I know that’s where the Five Points live. You won’t mind if I visit often, will you?

Lodestar:Of course not! Are you sure you don’t mind me moving her there?

Alessa:If I’ve learned anything from this stay, Star, it’s that YOU are her mom. She needs you.

Lodestar:I need her too.

Maverick:Conor will look after her, won’t he?

Lodestar:I guess there wasn’t much time for conversation when you were punching his lights out.

Maverick:I stand by that decision.

Alessa:I don’t!

Lodestar:Anyway, guys, I gtg. I need to catch some Zs before I fall down. Just wanted to get the arrangements put in place.

Maverick:Keep us in the loop.

Lodestar:I will.

Alessa:She never needed you to be her cousin, Star. She just needs you to be her mom.

Lodestar:That’s all I’ve ever wanted to be.

Maverick:Stay safe, Star.

Alessa:Yes, take care of yourself.

Lodestar:I will. Stay vigilant. I don’t know what the hell’s going to happen. I just know that the cages I told you I was rattling, Mav, are wide open now.

Maverick:Understood.
