[ Ugh, fine. Whatever. He doesn't text any more, then, instead getting himself to the meeting spot as quickly as he possibly can. Just him ... and his dagger, if it comes to that. Presumably not, though, given Kitty's apparent trust of Billy thus far. ]
[Billy looks over at Miles, and narrows his eyes.]
You called her one time, really drunk.
What did you ask her?
[This is 100% Billy making sure he is not someone in disguise or something. Because this is the last thing that he has of Kitty, the one thing she died to protect, he's not just handing it over without questions.
[ Ah. Then this is about ... his flippant facade drops instantly, replaced instead by that cold rage he's been struggling with ever since the video broadcast. And from there ... he stutters a bit, at that question. What? ]
I propositioned her. Rudely, and poorly. I've since apologized.
... I assume you are not so uncouth as to seek me out for gossip at a time like this.
no subject
I'm coming. Why are you threatening me?
no subject
Kitty trusted you but I'm deeply suspicious by nature.
Also don't text they could be watching.
Just show up

Sorry, Miles.]

no subject
But I needed to make sure it was you and it's the only thing that I know for sure that she didn't tell anyone else, and you probably didn't, either.
[Billy has information. It's important.]
Toilet tanks.
no subject
What about them.
no subject
In one of the toilets in the hotel.
[How is this not obvious.]
no subject
[ He has the sudden, unpleasant mental image of combining his powers rather literally for this. ]
no subject
I'm guessing it's in a toilet tank. You know.
The ones where the water sits for flushing.
no subject
-- Ah. Much more accessible then.
no subject
Listen, you got this?
Because the floor and I have a date and I don't want to stand it up.
no subject
... Are you all right, Billy?
no subject
[He sighs.]
Look, I have to go.
Deal with things. Sorry.
no subject
[ But he makes a slight gesture with one hand, like go on then. ]
no subject
Right.
Okay.
I gotta go.
[He actually does, then. He disappears.]
