[ You stay where you are. We're coming to collect you.

Those two statements from his most recent dream echoed in his mind throughout the day, making him nervous enough to startle when ever his office door had opened or one of the many NYBG gardeners had stepped out of the bushes to ask him a question. It was absolutely ridiculous! His finger drummed on his desk as he settled on a wild contingency plan... The only problem with it was he needed some help to pull it off. ]

Hey, anyone out there want to make a few bucks under the table?

[he gives him a look]

What are you up to.

[serpentinthegarden]

[ Alec. Normally he was happy to see you but right now... no. Shoo. Nosey cousin. ]

Just a business transaction. You don't need to worry about it.

[temptationaccomplished]

I think that makes us all the more worried about it.

[scotch_egg]

Please, you're no help. He'd give you a look and you'd let him get away with it.

[serpentinthegarden]

[ So attempting this look where he gets whatever he wants now ]

[temptationaccomplished]

Oh, pish posh. I don't give in that easily. [He does, he knows it.]

[scotch_egg]

Lying now, angel?

[seawalled]

You've both got points, really.

[scotch_egg]

Ellie, sit on him til he tells you everything

[serpentinthegarden]

Eehhh... It's a simple job! If they are sneaky the cops won't even be called.

[seawalled]

... Excuse me, but if you forgot, we are the cops in terms of memories. C'mon, Anthony. What d'you need done so badly that's worth breaking the law?

[serpentinthegarden]

Are you going to arrest me?

[ He wasn't too worried about that really. ]

Fell won't like it...

[temptationaccomplished]

The police?! Anthony, I swear to ...something, I will not post your bail, no matter which of your infamous Looks you try to use on me.

[scotch_egg]

All he'd have to do is wave a fruit rollup through the bars

[serpentinthegarden]

What bail? The whole point is not to get caught in the first place.

I'm not opposed to a little extra cash flow. What kind of trouble do I need to get into?

[serpentinthegarden]

Hey.

[ Finally some one who is in for a bit of trouble! ]

Minor breaking and entering. Are you up for something like that?

[chenqing_player]

Pretty sure I can handle it. I basically grew up on the streets.

[he is always up for a bit of trouble.]

What am I breaking into?

[serpentinthegarden]

[ He drew closer to the screen as the subject of the heist might prove to be controversial for some... ]

A Church.

[chenqing_player]

[He's in luck. A little quirk of an eyebrow and an amused smirk since Wei Wuxian is not at all religious and not afraid to cause mischief in a church.]

Well that's not going to be hard on the entering part to all of this. But what about the stealing side?

[darkenedmoon]

The lot of you are silly in regards to the objective of this! A well-placed donation, and most padres will give you as much of that as you want.

[Though she's certainly happy about keeping said objective a secret, if necessary...]

That said, if things fall through--I shan't rob the lad of his fun, gods forbid!--let me know and I shall handle it.

[serpentinthegarden]

It's not that simple. If it were I would just walk in there and get some myself, the fonts just sit out there in the middle of everything unguarded.

I can't touch the stuff. Not even a drop. I can't even walk into a Church anymore without feeling like some one has set my shoes on fire...

[darkenedmoon]

That is a problem...for you, but that doesn't mean I can't do that for you.

And I even will. And keep it safe. [In her keeping, that is. She's certain Fell would be apoplectic if something happened to Anthony with the issues he's describing, if the water spilled or gods know what else.]

Should I simply pick you up a contingency gallon, just in case?

[serpentinthegarden]

I won't say no to a contingency gallon.

[ Even if having it at her place makes setting traps with it difficult. It's fine! He will come up with a new plan to make use of her stash. ]

[darkenedmoon]

And this way I can decant it for you into smaller bottles, so you won't be in too much trouble. I hope. And perhaps get yourself some gloves and a good funnel? And maybe a splash guard...
