*The worried lines of his face smooth out, then, into a grim smile. He doesn't respond--not verbally, anyway, but the friendly punch to Fabian's shoulder is all the agreement either of them need.
And it feels, oddly enough, like all his frustration left him with the punch--it's surmountable, now. It's only another escapade, in its own way. With the decision comes risk, yes, but they're no longer at the mercy of the system. 'Empowered' hasn't been a word Gideon would use to describe his feelings toward the Ministry for a long, long time. He lets out a long breath, one he wasn't aware of holding.*
Well, shit. We'll have to owl Moody. Reckon he has an idea or two.
And we'll have to make the most of our good names while we've got them.
