My tailor is coming by if anyone needs their outfits for the gala altered; he works very quickly, so don't be shy. He's seeing Ambrose right when he arrives, but afterwards he should be free, and I can probably coax him into coming tomorrow too if you have investigation plans tonight that conflict.
Speaking of, is everyone enjoying their little undercover adventures? I know we'll have a formal debrief, but I'm sure you all already have some fun stories.
The rich people in Phoenix are somehow worse than the rich people in New York.

Well the kids are pretty amused by the explosion, so that's nice.

[Kitty]
That's something. And you're all managing them alright with so many of us gone?
no subject
[Emma]
Yeah.
[...] Scoot's picking up like a million classes, but I'll take some of them away. Now you don't worry too much.

[Kitty]
[...]
Thank you.
Once the gala is over and I'm back I'm ready to get to work on consciousness splitting.

[Emma]
I'll keep my eyes out.
Good. That's why I wanted to stay. I hope to get some more of this down by the time you get back.

[Kitty]
Hopefully we'll have some information soon and we can head back.
This is less fun than IThe people here are exhausting.I imagine there's only so far we can get before we actually go to one of the alternate realities, but it will be good to get as much done as possible.
Kitty/Emma
You're right. And probably we shouldn't go reality-hopping solo.
At least not yet.
Kitty/Emma
No, before we know what we're doing, and while Ambrose is willing to help us, we should be sensible about the whole thing.
Are you all ready for the gala?
Kitty/Emma
Emma I will be so real I havenβt thought about the gala in days. Iβll be ready, though. Maybe itβll be a good place to endear ourselves to Ambrose even more so he wonβt mind all my questions.
Kitty/Emma
Darling, having the gala is the perfect opportunity to shove yet another thing into your brain so you can't think about anything that's bothering you. I can't believe you're squandering this.
I'm positive we can manage some endearment points with Ambrose.
Kitty/Emma
[...] But I'd rather pretend like all my work is doing something.
We can. And even if he doesn't have all the answers, either, he's the door to some of them, at least.
Kitty/Emma
Yes, being on good terms with him will make things easier in the long run. And I suppose he does have troubles of his own that he could use help with.
Kitty/Emma
If that's what it takes to bargain, I'll solve every single one.
Kitty/Emma
His life is going to be so in order.
Kitty/Emma
Thank you.
[...]Now quick, insult me or something.
But also. If you find any (clean) Kick. Can you keep one? I'm not gonna do it [...] unless I have to cross dimensions quickly again. In an emergency. And since that's one that very well may happen again I'll feel better knowing it's near.
Kitty/Emma
[...] I already have one squirreled away for similar reasons. We're both so pragmatic.
Kitty/Emma
Oh. Nice. [...] I can't recommend it for recreation purposes but it's a good tool.
Kitty/Emma
I'll admit that I'm curious, but also now is not the time for me to be doing reckless things.
Re: Kitty/Emma
Well if you need a high-sitter, I'd be happy to. Intangibly. If that would even matter.
Kitty/Emma
Very sweet of you. We'll see if it comes to that. Or if curiosity gets the better of me.
Kitty/Emma
Okay, well. Don't do it alone or you'll start talking to your own shadow.
