[The feed cuts in mid-shriek, Sam’s drone apparently having interpreted the start of the sound as its cue to begin broadcasting. It shows the adept pushing herself to her feet, having been knocked to her hands and knees by---what? Water. She’s drenched to dripping, and the street she stands on is wet for several metres all around.]

Calvaire de crisse...!

[It’s no more than a mutter as she straightens and immediately starts for the shelter of the closest building, casting an anxious glance up as she goes. She’s through a doorway in a matter of moments due to making haste, and relaxes---marginally---as she moves further away from the entrance.]

Yeah. And yeah, honestly, I am. Bit of bruising would be the worst of it.

Good, that's good to know.

[He sighs.] I'm...going to have to have a talk with him...

That might not be a bad idea...? And just---excuse me a minute. Just a minute.

[The feed cuts out. After a minute or two, it cuts back in, Sam seeming a bit more settled. By the background, she's still in the same building.]

Just had to set myself in order. Wing, I figure I have a favour to ask of you.

[He'll wait for her return.]

Ask it.

Y'mind seeing me to the spa, soonish? An escort might not be a bad idea, but this is the thing; that's all I'm going to ask, because I will see myself safely home---and from here.

I will escort you any time, anywhere, my friend. Just say when and where.

You really are wonderful, Wing.

I thought about asking you now, but... no. I have problems, and Dirge is one of them, but I'm not helpless, and sooner or later he'll have to understand that's for a fact.

[He gives her a little smile and a nod.]

Just be careful. I'll be here when you're ready for that escort.

[She nods, smiling back.]

Of course. Until then.

[The feed blips out. After a little while, Wing's drone will chime with an incoming text.]home safe just give me a bit

[He's quick to reply]

Thank you for telling me.

Just let me know. I'll come right over.

wouldn't want you worried :)[some time later, there's another message]

good to go

I’ll be there shortly.

[Give him a few minutes, he’ll be there.]

[Having been watching at the window, Sam opens it enough to lean out, hands cupped to her mouth, and shout for the mech's attention.]

Wing!

Thank you for coming.

[He smiles as he approaches, kneeling near her.] Of course. Anything for a friend.

You say that, and I think 'nobody could ask for a better one.'

Should I bother going down and out, or...?

[The window is big enough to accommodate furniture like bedframes, and at a height for handing.]

[His chin tucks a little, fans whirring with his soft blush.] Thank you.

[His smile grows and he lifts his hand up to her window.] Only if you want, though this works for me if it works for you.

You're welcome. And this works for me fine. [She shrugs and climbs out the window. It's a little awkward, but easy, and she sits as soon as both feet find Wing's palm. Her comm drone follows dutifully.] Thank you.

[Wing carefully shifts his hand to his chest and gives her a smile.] You’re very welcome. Now, where would you like to go?

That spa in the South, please.

Of course. [He'll start walking for the nearest Gateway.]

Sounds like some relaxation will be good for you.

Thank you.

[She makes a little amused noise.]

It's definitely been a day, so I'm going to get to that... and, the additions I've definitely earned. [She'll hold her right hand up to clarify.] Most of this stuff is tied to specific events, y'see.

Specific events?

[You've not explained your magic to him yet, Sam. ~~Just Breakdown and Paian.~~]

Some in commemoration, some in anticipation. You remember my message-sending...?

I do. [It’s clear he’s wondering what that has to do with the markings on your body...]

Stuff like that, or my seeing myself home safe, takes some oomph out of me. It's... basically recouped with additional ink.
