This is all a big gamble, is what it is. It's a gamble to get enough forces, it's a gamble to actually show up. But territory claims were rather common and deaths seemed like they happened only to people no one knew, so statistically speaking at least the worst didn't seem like it'd come to pass. Or if it did, he would apparently just hang with his ghost buddies and live life as annoyed as he already does. So, you know, nothing to lose.

But he does need help. He always forgets (should've done your research, Connor) that Natasha is with Redbright. It's too easy to see her just as a vampire. Just as a free agent who acts rationally. But she's not, and it's his first mistake. But he'll make several before the claim is over.

"Hey, Natasha," that he catches her is a gamble too but it works out. He offers her a smile that is easier than his feelings. "Are you busy right now? Maybe I can buy you a drink?"

It's been a rough couple of days, heavy on politics and lean on spare time. It's almost a miracle that Connor manages to catch her at a moment that she can spare. She glances over the new werewolf, and perhaps against her better judgment, she inclines her head.

She could use a distraction, and Connor is usually that.
