PRIVATE ☏ video to team failboat + des

[  backdated to july 6th, while chilling at rafael's ]  

I'm afraid I have some rather ... unfortunate news to relay.  

I spoke with Wynn about our mission progress tonight, and he expressed a certain degree of dissatisfaction with our results, considering the sensitive nature of the artifact.  I think he ... believes he should have sent in several more experienced Knights instead of so many newer recruits, for which I can hardly blame him, although I think everyone's performed more than admirably.  You should be nothing but proud of all you've done.

However, he's asked all of us to return tomorrow to London for a debriefing of sorts, and to discuss several... decisions made by the team.  Myrilandel, Buffy, Kat, Dumage and I will depart from Italy tomorrow, and meet you in England.

I understand it may be particularly difficult for some of you to disentangle yourselves from operations, but I imagine we can come up with some explanation for your sudden departure.

Mr. Descant, I would appreciate if you chose to remain in New Orleans, any updates on developments in our absence.

[ a pause, and then a little sigh.  she looks severely disappointed: though entirely in herself more than anything. ]

Thank you all.  It's been a pleasure leading such a fine team.

[Myri looks a bit perplexed at the nudge, but it happy that everyone is smiling. Especially Finnick. it makes her stomach flutter.]

I've always heard that a handsome man is more dangerous than any blade.

[he peripherally notices buffy's nudging but doesn't seem to think anything of it or act any differently. he's too busy paying attention to how adorable myri is.]

It's true. [if she only knew. sure, he was a good fighter, but his major advantage in his hunger games was all the gifts given to him by sponsors -- sponsors who thought he was ~prettiest~.] And a handsome man with a blade is doubly dangerous.

[witchwoman]

[Don't admit your fighting skills so quickly, Finnick. Myri is starting to develop a complex since she's the only person she knows who is so terrible in a fight... Well, except for maybe Mark.

Poor Mark.

But she nods.]

True, so it's settled. You're the only man suited for the job.

[he didn't mean to ... 8( ]

I suppose we'll have to hope Wynn agrees.

[witchwoman]

[She bites her tongue, since she doesn't agree with ANY of this Wynn business. Her expression actually reflects some of that anger, but she's careful with what she says, in case anyone else might be listening. PARANOID]

Yes, it seems we will. [She steals a glance at Buffy, since they seem to be pretty much on the same page with this whole Wynn thing.]
