She was weary. She didn't even think it was possible to be this weary. Mind and body were being pushed to their limits and she wondered absently when she would reach her breaking point.
Not today, at least. She walked through the streets of the WestEnd, amazing how they looked so different by daylight, towards Isis Manor. She debated stopping and pulling her pumps off and maybe the stiff suit jacket she was wearing. She was still dressed professionally for her little act as Lucien's co-counsel and was starting to feel uncomfortable in the attire. At least she had let the illusion fall: blond hair to blue, green eyes to grey, and round ears to pointy.
She made a decision as she walked up the stairs and knocked on Erin's door. She was not going scouting in the WestEnd tonight. She was no good to the Sisters if she wore herself out completely. They needed her on the legal side of things now as much--if not more--than on the watch side. She was going to relax in the Inn and spend the night with Skyler and take the longest bath imaginable.
Just the thought of such relaxation managed to calm her down and lift her spirits enough to greet Erin with a smile when the door opened.
She had been looking forward to this lunch date of theirs. Erin seemed like she needed a little chat--things were obviously weighing on her mind, though Jewell didn't know what things. She didn't like to see her friends so upset but hadn't had the time lately to be there for everyone. She was trying to rectify that right now.
