Moriarty had planned for this for quite some time, ready to spring it on Adler when he decided he was ready. It hadn't been meant to be tonight but he enjoyed being changeable. It kept people on their toes. Even 'The Woman'. He'd sent a driver for her, no match for the people he'd had in London, but they'd do. And stationed his best sniper on the roof. Its not that he didn't trust her... well actually it was. He didn't trust anyone. There'd be someone watching them as long as he wanted it.
The driver arrived at eight promptly. Picking her up and driving her through the city. Even changing cars. Jim wasn't going to take any chances. It wasn't worth it.
He was waiting at a restaurant more in Douglas County than Lawrence itself. It wasn't anything like what'd they'd be used to in London, for that he'd have to take her to a bigger city and this was still more a game to him than anything else. Adler too, he knew that of course. He knew just how much she wanted to keep him happy without giving up anything of what she was. It was adorable, really it was. But if she wanted to play, he was happy to oblige her. The Consultant Criminal who rarely met anyone was going to give her an opportunity few got. Mostly he was curious to see what she did with it.
The driver, silent through the drive out of the city no matter what finally spoke. "In there, upstairs." he said simply and got out to open the door for her. Again, as instructed. "He's expecting you." Another man who had never and would never likely meet Jim Moriarty. Oh he was curious to. But it was more than his life was worth to follow her inside. Literally more than his life was worth. He'd gotten paid really very handsomely for the job and so he didn't question. Moriarty himself of course was waiting, dressed in a decidedly well designed suit he'd had made as soon as the money had really started rolling in. He stood when Irene reached the door and gave a smile, one that didn't quite manage to reach his eyes. They never quite managed.
