A new business, likely in King’s End, didn’t yield much of anything to Deimos. She could’ve researched through other regions’ shops and routes, but he couldn’t picture her sticking to one place for too long. She was noticeable, purposefully so most of the time, but calculated; he wouldn’t begrudge her the notions of donning a disguise and sneaking off into nothingness simply because she could. If there were embittered circumstances, he might’ve heard from her first – if he were to judge based on prior meetings and rage – but given how Sunjata was talking now, he suspected that wasn’t the case.
And maybe there was no motive at all – and she’d scarcely noticed the fault lines and fallouts.
He sighed, ears twitching again, taking in all the sounds from above, hearing the distant movement of something else, and striving to focus on one or the other. Please do. His jaw clenched slightly, easing another long breath, a heaved sigh. In the meantime, I can look around. In the usual haunts; in the interims of Halo she’d always presided within, floating along like she owned the world. In spots where they’d re-established themselves, in the wakes of so many crumbled formations. I need to go take care of this other spider, but then I can start. Rearrange schedules and interims, flicker about and traverse.

I will either find a way, or make one
