"He does."
---
Byron stares down the energy!
---
"As I said, he'll be fine."

"Mm. Like I said, I need to talk to him."
--
It settles up near the ceiling.
--
He nods.

"I don't think you should."
---
Byron thiiinks some more, then tries to zip out the door before it comes back down.
---
She sits at a chair on the other side of the desk. "You should get out of Byron's chair."

"Richard. You can't tell me what to do."
--
It was waiting for this! It shoots down to the door as Byron opens it.
--
"Why? He isn't using it."
--
Meanwhile! List has decided that no one is following him and sits down to read some letters.

"The last few times you spoke with him he upset you."
---
Byron tries to shut it back in the room.
---
"He'll be back soon."
---
These letters are all addressed to Byron and signed "E. L." They mostly consist of veiled threats to Byron about horrible things that will happen if he doesn't send them better information and hints at how much they preferred dealing with his father.

"So?"
--
It curls up by the door to wait.
--
"I'll get up when he returns."
--
List wonders about the initials. He checks for an address.

"You shouldn't have to get upset."
---
Byron is now very excited! He heads back to his office to write about it in his diary.
---
"Get up now, please."
---
No address!

"Getting upset is just part of life, dearest." She snorts.
--
"Well.. since you said please." He stands.
--
List thinks that is lame. He pockets the letters.

"I can deal with him."
---
"Thank you."
Byron returns, grinning. "Bella! I just found the most amazing thing!"

"Noooo. I will. You just try to bully him."

Nat looks up as Byron enters.

"I do not."
---
She holds the lamp out. "The djinn passed out. No change."
"..Oh." He takes the lamp, stares at it a moment then grins. "I think I captured a soul."

'I've seen you yelling and chasing him around. You can't do that."
--
"Captured?" Nat blinks.

"I just talk to him."
---
"Yes! We need some crows. And a rat. We should try a rat first." He has a seat, pulls his journal over, and starts writing.
"Shouldn't you check on the djinn?"

"Richaaard. You lose your temper with him. You know you do."
--
"A rat for what?" He leans to look at the writing.

"I won't this time."
----
"For the soul. And send Lindsey to the djinn. He knows what to do."
Isabella frowns and wonders off.
