Once within reach he shifted the sword so that he held it by the cross and offered the hilt to the other Wraith. "I have no intention of commanding this Hive, and even less desire to do so."

He gave a moment to allow his words to sink in, before he raised a brow ridge, and cocked his head in query at the other Wraith. Slowly, the other reached out, and with a distaste that clearly matched his own, closed his fist around the former commander's sword hilt.

Jeez, not all at the same time. People (Wraith) are certainly forming a line to have command over that Hive, right?

But it’s good that the madness of its Queen will end soon.

"See to it that your predecessor's concubine is delivered aboard my Hive before I depart."

Uh oh… didn’t really see this one coming, but I guess she’s going to get hers, now? Is he going to do it himself, or is he going to let Alicia take revenge?

Let’s hope she doesn’t manage to worm her way in with the young Queen aboard Todd’s Hive. I’m not really concerned about that, but you never know.

"It will, of necessity, mean that there will be some small… change in plan, but," Michael swallowed, and she opened her eyes again to find him looking at her in deep, but concerned devotion. "Nothing we can't handle," he finished softly.

He’s kind of sweet, right? I hope there’s not too much of a setback in his plans, time he needed to spend elsewhere than with/on her. Whatever’s going on, I hope the outcome is a good thing, even her being able to conceive one way or another of Michael, if they so desire. I don’t know in which capacity I see that happening. More children like Nethaiye, sure, but does it have to go further than that? Warrior types, I mean… It would be painful to see them die, I think. o_0

She lay, unmoving as he went to his coat, and from his pocket took a syringe, already filled with a deep purple fluid.

I think I’m liking that purple, lol. Always that syringe near a Queen. *grin*

No Queen again from the union, right, just like Michael showed us?

"My loyalty lies with one that has come before."
{come before} {come before} {before} {before} {before}
"Whom you will serve."
{you will serve} {will serve} {serve} {serve} {serve}
That’s a rather interesting ending. Malcolm admits he serves another, and that she’d better do the same. Is she conscious enough to hear that?

I wonder what kind of trouble that is going to create.

In any case, I’m looking forward to more.

Spikey

It is both a good and a very bad thing that the Queen's madness will end soon. She is a very dangerous wraith, and when in full command of her faculties...

Hanna will get her just rewards in Convocation...

Hmm, Michael... kind of sweet - okay I'll go with that. I don't think what's going on in and of itself will upset Michael's plans too much, but the fall out might make things more difficult.

Indeed no queen from the union - honestly, if you were Malcolm, would /you/ want that?

Whether of not the Queen was conscious enough to hear Malcolm's warning is a kind of moot point... but I'm sure there will be trouble along the way.
