Come over.
[ because those two words, sent as an order, explain everything - right?]

You've been here longer than me. I heard about Fort Harmony, but this is more serial killer and less internment camp. Have they had a serial killer before?
Stay safe, Bellamy.
Stay safe, Bellamy.
[ Not that he won't come over if she doesn't explain, but - ]
Why? Are you okay?
[ Never mind the fact that he's already out of the house. ]

Lincoln gave me something I need you to see.
[ she's already made copies in case the city tries to take it away, but it's not real until he's looked at it.]

There's someone in the city who has Henry's storybook.
Her name is Drizella. I knew she was from the Enchanted Forest, but she doesn't know anything about me - and I still don't understand why the city would give it to her or what her connection is to my family.
I'm meeting her at Subversion to get a look at the book.

Not that I know of, but seeing as my friend got beaten to a pulp the other day and the perpetrator broadcast it, I can't say I'm surprised. This city brings out the worst in people. I can't pretend I know how a serial killer's mind works so I'll leave it to the professionals.
Pretty sure I've got the best protection in the city courtesy of Emma, but I'll avoid travelling alone, if that makes you feel any better.

I offered her the same. Someone broadcast an entire beating?
[ Part of him feels like she only sends him messages like this when something potentially bad could happen - but he'd rather she tell him than say nothing at all, even if it means he might spend a portion of his day worrying about her. ]
That's a safe place to meet.
Are you planning on telling her who you are and what Henry means to you?

The sensible part of my brain is telling me to hear what the favor is first before I agree to it.
How can I help?

It's about Nancy, though I suppose more specifically your club.
I want to believe that I'm right that you care about your employees, and whilst I know Nancy can look out for herself I know how much better it can be if someone else is also making sure you're safe.

[ she isn't expecting much of a fight - Drizella seems upset and resigned to fact that she's going to show the book to her. but Emma knows what seeing this book is going to do to her, too. maybe he deserves a little warning.
and she's not sure what she'll do if there's more of their story in it than that she already knows.]
Now that she knows the book belongs to my family, I won't have to; I'm in it.

[ Now he's intrigued. ]
Should I let myself in or are you outside?

How much do you think she's read?
Do you think she'd let you keep it? I wouldn't mind looking at it myself.

Sounds like you care a lot about this girl.
If you're asking me to look out for her, I'll be doing that for all my employees.
I can't give her special treatment. You know she'd hate that if she found out. And she would find out because she's smart.

I do.
( she could say she's contracted with her but that isn't why she cares )
I'm not asking for special treatment, I just want to make sure that someone is making sure she's okay. If you're already doing that for everyone that works for you then there won't be a problem.

If it makes you feel any better, she's close to my sister's age and so is another girl working for me. There's no way I'd let anything bad happen to them in my club.
I try to be.
I won't tell her about this by the way.

It's a lot, Bellamy.

I think she's reading it right now.
No. I think I'll be lucky if she shows up with the book in the first place.

Yeah, it was gruesome. Fortunately he got fixed up (he's an android). [ A very likeable one. ]
You stay safe too.

I should be expecting more messages like yours?
I guess I'd do the same if it was my sister.
