Notes, Messages, Plans.

Cricket spends almost as much time at the Viper Pit as he does at his cottage, and Loki likewise seems to divide their time between one place and the other more or less evenly. Or maybe that's just because Loki is all over the place so much of the time, it seems like he's everywhere at once. After the text conversation with Harley, Cricket opts to make a faux-casual visit to the bar. First thing, he retrieves a couple crates of moonshine from the shed, making a mental note to stop storing them out here, lest they be tampered with. They look undisturbed now, the seals on the jars unbroken, but better safe than sorry.

One he puts in the cellar. The other he loads onto his bike, whistling absent-mindedly, and heads for the Viper's Pit. The fact that he's shown up with an unscheduled delivery may clue Loki in that something's up in the first place, but if not, there's a look in Cricket's eyes as he limps into the back, sets the crate down, and reaches out for a hug and a kiss.

"Got kind of a problem, Pretty Bird..."

Forrest will get a text on his PINpoint later in the day, just a brief note, because Cricket knows Forrest isn't comfortable with these strange devices yet.

Forrest, can you come see me soon's you get a chance? Not an emergency. Kind of important though.
