When you mentioned I'd missed a stimulating time, I had no idea just how much of an understatement that was.

To state the obvious: you have a member of the Barnam family as your guardian angel.

I... have no words.

I did have coffee with her, though. She's a rather nice girl, once you get past all the surface hostility.

So you have met Taylor. She's quite an interesting young woman. As for my being her Ward, Romana is already plotting my assasination over that fact.

Fate enjoys quite a nuanced sense of irony.

[wineandvenom]

Apparently so.

Though, bearing in mind that I have no idea if you're at all fond of the girl... If you could get her to take the bullet for you, do you think her death would be enough to cause an angel to Fall?

I don't think I need to point out all the benefits inherent in making the girl a martyr.

And, as usual, feel free to disregard all this if you're fond of her or have some better use for her.

She's hardly an innocent, Eric. And at the moment, she is much more interesting to me alive.

[wineandvenom]

Point taken.

I am sorry if the suggestion was presumptuous of me. You know how I think.

And with her more useful alive, it does give me the opportunity for more chats over coffee, if you don't object. (No, no ulterior motives of any sort. Though I think it's interesting to apply logic to angelic prejudices and feel them crumble bit by bit.)
