"I will help, of course, it's just that I think you need to understand that I was seen as a liability last time. People will answer your call, but they won't mine. I'll do the legwork: I'll deliver messages, find safe houses...I'll even gather supplies. But please don't ask me to speak on your behalf, or we'll lose our legs before we even stand. The Black Watch needs a leader. And someone they can trust. [...] I pledge my life to you, Mr. Kameren. You just tell me what you need."
"I think you underestimate your own importance, Mr Lovegood, but as you wish." Alex rubbed at the space between his eyes. Gathering the Black Watch again, that was a daunting task, and one he'd hoped would never be necessary.
"We need strong hearts more than we need strong bodies. Courage and friendship will be sorely needed in the days to come." It sounded trite to him, but it was true. True friendships were the only things that could stand up to the evil he sensed coming. Dark days indeed.
Alex deliberately brought the conversation to a lighter note, leaning forward. "Can you tell me more about.. Dogwood? That's what you called it?" He brought the shields down, sighing a little. They always gave him a headache.
