Everything had gone exactly as planned, and the bait had been taken. Each piece was in their place, and would be playing their parts out while a certain mastermind played his own role. It was enough to make a king of crime smile, even dance in excitement. But the show had begun.

Outside the pier administration office waited another servant, dressed in his usual attire for once, rather than his bar attire, a cane clutched in one hand, his other empty for the moment, his own weapon away, after all, it wouldn't be proper just yet. Yes, that was James Moririty, waiting for the person before him to leave, so he could play his part, that of a concerned citizen. After all, who knew what manner of unsavory creature, or potential patrons lay within the recent discovery. For the moment, he had his back to the approaching duo, but he knew that they would come, Holmes wasn't one for ignoring a mystery. All he had to do...was wait.

Having an unhealthy addiction to caffeine can cause plenty of negative effects. And for the young tech heiress, that had come in the form of being unable to sleep the night prior. Instead, after returning from antics after the Zoo, and exchanging numbers with the magus she had met there, she'd done some other stuff, and then, spent the rest of the night working. Some of it was spent writing up a report about the successful summoning and the contact made, to send to her father in hopes of receiving clear instructions as to what she was to do there, but afterwards, she'd begun tinkering with computer software in her quarters, letting Da Vinci do whatever she wanted, as dangerous as that might have been, while she worked in her own bed. Eventually though, the crash came from the copious amounts of coke and pepsi and who knew what else consumed, and she'd fallen asleep, laptop powering down automatically a short time later. And eventually was knocked onto the floor, or hopefully moved by someone else, while she tossed and turned. It was now whatever time, and she was dead to the world, snoring away, until something happened, or someone disturbed her...
