She wanted time alone w Roarke. But he was in the bullpen when they arrive. She gave Peabody and Abernathy assignments, but he spotted Roarke. Introduced self. Wants to chat.

Hoped to see Eve. Roarke gets more info. Caro tells him that Lorcan has been calling. She traced one call. He tagged Eve. Lorcan called back. Roarke called Eve, muted her, blocked vid and chats. He saw Eve give orders, then fly down the glides. They traced the call. Roarke took off in a car, landed on a roof, popped out to be w Eve and em. She sent him w Feeney. They lost him. Back to Central. She had Abernathy w her

He was playing a guitar. He had one but a it was smashed. Roarke told him about Avenue A and Mavis being there. The kid asked if Roarke wanted st, which is really sad. He said no and just join the music program. Keep the guitar. He talks to Rochelle about Gee. Older kids first, then middle, then lil kids. It's a good day. She is proud of being there. Roarke runs into Quilla, doing a vlog. She shows him some. She

Known stuff. He was convinced that Lorcan would follow the same old routine, nope. He wants to talk to Roarke. About Lorcan....but....
Eve calls him up. He was at An Didean. Happy to see the kids.
He will think about it. He feels a bit torn in directions. Lorcan= past, these kids = future. Eve is always w him. She wished he could have a break. She will try to go by that day.
Roarke talks to a teen boy called Gee

The kitty stuff is very distressing. Eve updated the squad, gave out assignments, then Trueheart found the kitty. Rescued, adopted. That will help w timelines. Eve and Peabody roll out. He adopted the kitty from the foster.

He would have evaded her, back in the day, but she would have worried him. Kids would be moving into An Didean that day. Doing it in groups. No media. Quilla will do some stuff tho. He feels its a mix of Summerset and the Academy for them- what they had after the trauma. Take care of my cop.
Harvo called w an update on the kitty. The morgue next. Morris had the kitty. He wants Eve to kick Lorcan in the balls.

She splits a soother w him. He won't get them. She stays up when he goes to his work. She scored some on salons ( Trina is one) more info. Gotta put the pieces together. She found the limo driver. Roarke hugged her. She laid out breakfast in her terrace office. She had blades strapped to her wrist ( retracting) and a mini blaster on her hip. He was relieved. Eat and talk. He compliments Eve on her investigation skil

Roarke was man too. Boy said that Lorcan would kill them. Gotta stop. Boys raced off. Roarke chased Lorcan. Found himself in the alley where Patrick beat him. Bb Eve was there, broken. The fathers break their arms. Roarke reached out and touched her tangled hair. Can't break them tho. Both Lorcans there. He goes after bb Eve, as that will hurt Roarke more. He woke up to Eve holding him. Bad one, she knows.

Baxter calls w more info. The LC saw stuff ( fancy product's) he was muttering about Roarke while. Short and not sweet. Eve can narrow down some salons featuring those products. She watched the hotel feed. Clocked the fancy running shoes, the reversible jacket/hoodie. Custom made? Roarke dreams of Ireland. Working w his mates as children. Thieving at the boy/dog scene. Where he sees Lorcan as man/boy. Boy Roarke

They saw him leave to kill, then come back all revved up. He orders an LC and she didn't stay long. Eve helped Roarke clear some fog from him. This case is too personal.
