[ Of course they fucked with it. They better not have encouraged her to spend that time shopping around for another contract. Philippa doesn't need the assist. ]

Just another dog and pony show. And an incompetent one at that.

They are at least as persistent as they are incompetent.

[ DTF failed to convince the city to reassign contracts this time. She has no expectation this will be their last attempt. ]

[ He reads it in her voice, effortlessly picturing the dryness of her expression. Lorca doesn't need to see her every day. Not even every week. Having the choice whether or not to taken from him transformed the negligible distant into a searing ache. ]

What were conditions like for you?

Typical of the Down. We were left to idle under the threat of being paired with native Dominants should our contracted partners fail review. It did not go over well.

You?

Daily interrogations threatening death by tedium.
Shared luxury accommodations in an obvious attempt at entrapment.

If I were the Creator I'd be insulted.

[ But he presumably approved this so yet more proof that he can't be that smart. ]

That we've been released would suggest he was at minimum unimpressed.

They'll win his favor sooner or later.

That may not be such a bad thing.

[ He's sick and tired of feeling watched, and of having no-stakes conversations. ]

I'll be home soon. Meet me there.

Matter of perspective.

[ Being cut loose and forced to find another contract is not the same as being reassigned to the next available native Dominant. ]
