[Untraceable call: Black Widow/Master]
[A number that is certainly not publicized, but is not necessarily unknown. What might be called "used previously and not disabled" number. A number for sale.

Ring.]

	Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-22 12:21 pm UTC (link)
	[She picks up after the second ring.] Yes? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[A pause to consider. His voice is only slightly altered, just enough to confound software. The confidence is clear.] Are you for sale, Widow? Or do you have your own goals now? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[There's a brief pause; Loki said something like this to her once. Her phone is running a program, but a glance tells her it won't do any good.] That depends on the prospective buyer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Really? Why? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-22 08:03 pm UTC (link)
	Let's just say I do have some standards, limited though they may be. What's the offer? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-22 08:04 pm UTC (link)
	It isn't an offer. It is an opportunity. No pay is included. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-22 08:04 pm UTC (link)
	Opportunity for what? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-22 08:05 pm UTC (link)
	Justice. Is that something that concerns you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-22 08:08 pm UTC (link)
	It interests me. I'd need more details, of course. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-22 08:09 pm UTC (link)
	I am not sure. It's a great deal of trust I am extending in your direction, Widow. Why should I trust you? [Mild, curious.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-22 08:16 pm UTC (link)
	You called me for a reason, which already implies a certain level of trust. That's as much as anyone who calls has. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-22 08:19 pm UTC (link)
	I am not just anyone. You are working in New York a great deal. You assisted in the invasion. Why? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-22 08:22 pm UTC (link)
	And yet, you still called me for a reason. I was in town. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-22 08:32 pm UTC (link)
	[A faint but audible smile.] Your geographic location does not matter in this case. I want to think well of you, Widow. But I can't be sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-22 08:36 pm UTC (link)
	I have no desire or need to prove myself to a voice over the phone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-23 03:07 am UTC (link)
	Good point. I am the new Hand. You have heard of it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-23 03:11 am UTC (link)
	Turnover problem, or you just like the name? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-23 04:23 am UTC (link)
	A change in leadership. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-23 01:22 pm UTC (link)
	[Just a little dry.] And it's justice you seek. Or is this the sort of justice some might call revenge? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 03:09 am UTC (link)
	No. Revenge would be for myself. Avenging would be for the creature these people once worshipped. I want to improve this world by taking some people out of it. So do you, I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 03:11 am UTC (link)
	The world can always be improved by the removal of certain people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 03:15 am UTC (link)
	Does someone in particular come to mind? [Very, very mild now.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 03:18 am UTC (link)
	One does, as a matter of fact. It'll be handled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 03:19 am UTC (link)
	And how did you determine that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 03:21 am UTC (link)
	Experience. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 03:25 am UTC (link)
	[Disapproving.] Life and death is not based on experience. The choice is unique, the life you take unique, the lives that you effect ripple away in eddies of pain that never diminish. That is not "experience." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 03:30 am UTC (link)
	The life and death of a serpent can easily be based on experience. [Did she drop the hint on purpose? Likely. She's almost amused by the conversation.] And the determination for your own goal for world improvement? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 03:34 am UTC (link)
	No. That would be hubris. I want small justice. Personal mercy. Consequence. Guardianship. A safe life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 03:37 am UTC (link)
	A safe life for whom? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 03:39 am UTC (link)
	The young. The old. People who do not kill or injure intentionally, the way we do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 03:40 am UTC (link)
	Safety isn't a guarantee despite who lives or dies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 03:41 am UTC (link)
	No. So we should do nothing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 03:44 am UTC (link)
	Merely understand that a mercy, consequence, guardianship - and particularly a "safe life" shouldn't be your sole motivations. That isn't enough. What has the target done? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 03:47 am UTC (link)
	They are my motivations as Master. The others do not concern you. I will let his victims show you. Will you meet them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 03:50 am UTC (link)
	When and where? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'll let you know. After Halloween. Cooler is better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 04:32 am UTC (link)
	My schedule is fairly light currently, but I'd still appreciate some notice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master ex_apparitio856 2014-10-24 04:32 am UTC (link)
	Not too much notice. I know your kind, Widow, and I'm not suicidal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Black Widow/Master clearmyledger 2014-10-24 04:33 am UTC (link)
	My kind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
