    Summary

    After talking to the Old Bastard about the file, River doesn't know where to go. The Park tried to kill him. He was about to become a whistleblower. He had failed to rescue a Slow Horse. He needed to go apologise for that to Catherine and so that was as good a thing to do as any.

    What he had not intended to do was end up sleeping on Catherine's settee, catsitting and technically dragging Catherine into committing treason. He couldn't even think about regretting spending more time getting to know Catherine despite all of that.

    Day zero: the injured party must not return to duty. If essential job, the backup crew takes over duty.

    Summary

    These locks are harder to pick, clearly purposefully, but she manages in the end. It pushes inwards and she slips a hand out to stop it, mindful of loud hinges.

    Then a hand snatches hers and she’s pulled in, spun around and pressed into the wall, a sharp edge held just close enough to her neck that it bites into the skin.

    "Drop your weapon," a voice says. "And don't even think about trying to fight me. I will win."
