章 277: Heroes Wanted

Lumin hadn't spoken to Kir since the "Mimic Incident" - as the Norneau papers had published it, having acquired the reports from the Watch and focused a lot on Kir's testimony.

Then, before his last class before the weekend, Kir had found Terry waiting for him with a mandatory invitation to dine with Lumin that evening.

Which brought him to now...

His evening started with a list of potential charges from Lumin, and she finished with "One day! You couldn't even wait one day without doing the exact thing I told you not to do!" Lumin was cold and livid as she lay into Kir, across the small private table in her quarters.

"It's not like I knew what was waiting for us! And I didn't try to take it on alone. I held back and let the city take care of it. Mostly."
