There was a note in her inbox this afternoon: Please see me after your last class. -Giles.

When she comes to his office, this time there's nobody there but him and Ms. Harkness.

Philippus smiles a little, comfortingly; the whole idea does rather turn the Council's plan on its head. (But that's what it needed, really, so she doesn't have much apology.) "I'll continue as usual until I hear from you."

"Er, yes. Please do."

He finally replaces his glasses on his nose, and tucks away his handkerchief.

"Thank you for coming, Ms. Ryder."

"And for your suggestions," Harkness adds, rising to her feet and reaching to shake Phillippus's hand.

Her handshake is accepted, and the smile changes notes a little. It's. . . well, there's still a basic problem with the Amazon general needing very much to get her act in gear and learn to actually lie. But otherwise, it's a plan she's more secure with than throwing a Slayer into the wolf's den.

"I'm glad to be of help."

She's sure she'd be of more use there than here.

As Phillippus leaves the office, she may overhear Mr. Giles's voice, low and intent: "Catherine, you know this isn't --" until the closing door cuts off his words.

Whatever it isn't, they'll be discussing it for a while.
