[Rey has some pretty questionable tastes in the crowd she associates with. But then, Rey is a questionable sort. She doesn't hesitate to resort to violence, as she is almost always inclined towards, which tends to reflect on the company she keeps.]
That I don't know. I'll be keeping an eye out if that turns out to be the case.
One good thing is Hope's resurrection abilities, at least. Just worried about his limits. If too many people die at the same time, who's to say that he'll prioritize bringing back one of his kin over us?
[She knows that it goes against Hope's nature to decide who lives and who stays dead, but she has to wonder how far he can keep at it.]
[Nick nods. Given his experience with near-dismantlement in Hadriel, he's not sure he wants to test the limitations of the so-called gods just yet, especially when people's lives are potentially on the line.]
Yeah. All he'd have to do is say someone went back through the Door as soon as he resurrected them, and some folks wouldn't even question him.
[Rey may have some degree of faith in Hope and what he's willing to do, and the god's actions often err on the side of altruism, but Nick can't bring himself to trust any of them just yet. Not with some of the things they've done.]
Would be difficult to discredit him, too. There's no way to know for certain whether or not people actually come and go when they vanish. [Pause.] Though, perhaps Confusion's tracking would help. But that'd also be god-made and possibly manipulated by their lot, even if they say otherwise.
[Given how furtive they've been with their information, it's hard to say one way or another.]
It'd be better if we had a tracking system coded up by one of us, though I don't know who'd have the know-how to do it. Maybe that one kid with the glasses or Rhys.
[Though Rhys seems to have his interests in areas of the non-helpful variety when it comes to programming.]
Me either, but it could be useful if someone gets into trouble.
[But he understands the downsides of such tracking, especially if it falls into the wrong hands. And even if it didn't, there'd be those who wouldn't trust it on principle, much like the Guard.
He makes his way to the couch, taking a seat beside her, glad for the pressure off his leg.]
Thanks for the heads up.
[He'd remind her that he's glad she's home safe, but he's sure she knows.]

[She raises her head as Nick sits down, rubbing the side of her neck.]
I'll keep you in the loop, if anything happens.
[Hopefully it won't be so dire that it'll come to that, she hopes.
[Not that she's so foolish to ever be that optimistic.]
