[ Filly is just going to be over here screaming internally because no, Mag can't fuck up, that's not how the world works. Mag makes things better, she remains calm, she is Filly's rock and this cannot be happening. ]
She hasn't had it in her to admit to Filly that, once the new opera house is completed, she will end her contract with GeneCo. All by herself, she is preparing for an ending of sorts - and at this point, there is still the tiniest spark of hope that, after seventeen years of working for him, after so many years of knowing him, he might leave her be.]
I can't even describe it but if something that's really bad for you and really good for you all at once could be represented by a sound, it'd be his voice.
[Damn straight she just had Filly quote herself. She couldn't put it into words herself, and why should she try, if all she'd have to do was to blink for the perfect definition of her emotional state?
What, breaking people out of prison? Because I don't actually do that very often. Or, y'know, at all.
[ Yes, she's pretty sure that she knows what Mag is talking about, but since this is the first time the woman has ever talked about anyone like this it's best to get it somewhat confirmed. ]
[ She tries not to think too hard about what that might mean because in all honesty she's not entirely sure how to handle mental imagery of Mag having sex.
[ Filly tends to notice that a guy likes her when he tries to stick his tongue down her throat, but before that 'oblivious' is usually the name of the game. ]
[ Though she's not really sure what she can do other than listen. Maybe offer some of the weird teas her mothers like to keep around the house that are supposed to be good for all sorts of things, apparently. ]

Have a frantic voice message.]
Filly? May I talk to you for a moment?
Please?
no subject
All Filly's annoyance disappears when she hears the message, however, because she has never heard Mag sound like that before. ]
Hey, Mag, what's going on?
no subject
[That would be the summary.]
And I don't know what to do next.

no subject
[... is she apologizing for the situation or the fact that she stole that line? Nobody knows.]
Have you heard of the jailbreak?
[Has anyone not heard of it? Most likely, Rotti is trying to sell it as an assassination attempt at this very moment.]
no subject
[ Holy shit Mag don't tell her you had something to do with that?
Sure, it would be massively badass but also incredibly dangerous and Filly really doesn't want to lose you. ]
no subject
[It's a weak defense, and she knows it.
She hasn't had it in her to admit to Filly that, once the new opera house is completed, she will end her contract with GeneCo.

no subject
[ This is so incredibly surreal. ]
no subject
[A prisoner. Just like that.]
I can't even describe it but if something that's really bad for you and really good for you all at once could be represented by a sound, it'd be his voice.
[Damn straight she just had Filly quote herself. She couldn't put it into words herself, and why should she try, if all she'd have to do was to blink for the perfect definition of her emotional state?
Sort of.]
no subject
[ Literally. ]
I'll hand it to you, when you go bad you do it in style.
no subject
[... Really, her biggest concern is this thing that other people would call 'attraction'.
Yes, she knows the jailbreak is the thing that might get her (and him) killed, but he would have died, either way, and she?
Well.]
no subject
[ Yes, she's pretty sure that she knows what Mag is talking about, but since this is the first time the woman has ever talked about anyone like this it's best to get it somewhat confirmed. ]
no subject
[Or should she bring up Graverobber. Because right now, she... actually, no, she couldn't. This is about as far as she can bring herself to go.]
He's... I am...
This isn't an option. I've never-- or well, not in a long time --
[Don't make her say it.]
This isn't part of my emotional world.
no subject
So what you're saying is you think he's hot?
no subject
[Well.]
... yes.
I understand your point of view now.
[She'd rather not.]
no subject
[ See why Filly spends so much time crying on your shoulder now, Mag? ]
no subject
[She has understood before - Filly's stories had been enough to break Mag's heart - but never from this perspective.
Never this quickly.]
no subject
[ She tries not to think too hard about what that might mean because in all honesty she's not entirely sure how to handle mental imagery of Mag having sex.
It just feels weird. ]
no subject
I doubt it.
Though I did bust him out of prison...
[... after the company she works for settled on trying to torture him into submission.]
How would I even find something like that out?
no subject
[ Filly tends to notice that a guy likes her when he tries to stick his tongue down her throat, but before that 'oblivious' is usually the name of the game. ]
no subject
[Filly, she needs a hug.
Or something that involves less physical contact.
Filly, she needs a handshake.]
At least you figure it out somehow.
no subject
[ Though she's not really sure what she can do other than listen. Maybe offer some of the weird teas her mothers like to keep around the house that are supposed to be good for all sorts of things, apparently. ]
Do you want to come over?
no subject
I cannot leave.
Will you come by tomorrow?
no subject
[ This is a major emergency after all. ]
