"Sometimes all you need is a really good incentive to play nice. Like no one tryin' to banish anybody if things go well," Chester says, looking at Karina like he didn't make a threat. Karina's expression isn't hers. Her features are all hers but the face she makes isn't one she'd make.
Right. It wasn't easy piecing together what happened to Lúgh from all the theorized gossip I've heard here and there. I might not even have it all right but he's gone and so is Eris and my instincts tell me it had to do with Lucien's demonic side. I'm not losing Karina to the idiotic idea that a banishment can be done. I don't want her to even risk it. The cat's a fool to think there's anyone else strong enough in this town to take it on. And why fucking bother if Erzebet hasn't proved to be a danger?
I move to behind the couch, set my hands on the back of it, and lean my weight onto them. I look at Karina and say, "Maybe there's a reason for her being in you."
My eyes shift to Chester.
"Maybe we're talking about something that no one has any real fucking understanding of."
I know I don't get it but I think there's more to it than simply some spirit along for a ride.
