I'll change that. [It came out instantly. I'll change it. She'd change the whole world for Jamie, if she could. Maybe few could understand this sort of bond, but it would still be her and him against the world. If the Goblin Market would not accept her brother, maybe she'd have to be a different sort of leader. But for now - for when she returned there - she'd be competing to get a position which would make it easier for all that discrimination to stop.

She pulled Jamie closer in a hug.] Alan was the first one to help us, and still helped us even after we knew. Maybe he's...got his twisted methods of being subtle and hasn't been taught how to share his plans with others, but...

[The thing is - she wants to say that Alan has their backs. But the moment Jamie and Nick cross paths as adversaries, if that ever happens, will be the moment Alan's focus on their backs will change.

Friends. Who needs enemies, like this.] I can talk to him, but so should you. Banter will only get you so far, and - most magicians turn it into an art. Maybe Alan needs to be reassured... [That Jamie's a good guys. She continues, strongly:]

If not, we'll move out. You and me, right?
