Tallulah was having momentary gadget insecurity - the look she gave Giselle's phone indicated that she knew that it was sleek and modern and expensive and stylish and all the things that weren't hers. She flipped her phone open and entered the number. "000-262-4908," she rattled off. "I'll pass it off to Pyxis, but I'm not sure it would be good for him to call you until he's met you in person-"
Giselle didn't know that Pyxis was Pasha, and Tallulah wasn't going to be the one to tell her. Disclosing his civilian identity was Pyxis's decision and Pyxis's alone.
Clearly, though, Tallulah wasn't in competition with Giselle and hadn't been in competition with her since ninth grade. Still they had never exactly been best friends and the sudden detente would certainly seem odd to any of those watching, especially Tate.
"Alright," nodded Tallulah. She'd been into his store once or twice - everyone had, when trying to kill time and such. "Sounds good."
She stifled another massive yawn and finished her decaf. "I'd better get home," she said sleepily.

Giselle nodded curtly. "Of course, he can call me if he needs assistance, but until he agrees to meet me, perhaps it's for the best." She noticed the glance at her phone though, judging by her eyes. Giselle could seem smug without even using body language at times. She radiated it.
Everything settled, Giselle offered her hand for a diplomatic shake. "Good working with you," she stated stiffly, successfully making a patrol sound more like a business meeting than two girls beating up a little boy in strange costumes then meeting up for coffee. "I'll see you next week, if everything goes according to plan."
Judging by the steady business the hospital was doing, it was perfectly possible that everything might not. One of their kind had already died, the Zodiacs weighed in at 13 including the Princess with Sagittarius's passing. Giselle had carefully omitted the fact from Tallulah, but the dark shadows under her eyes went some way towards telling the tale for her.
