Unfortunately for the already bedridden official, there was no time to succumb to a migraine.
There were far more pressing matters looming over them, and whether he wanted to deal with them or not, Killian simply had no choice but to trudge onward.
He dragged a hand over his face until it completely covered his eyes before saying with the sigh of someone already re-thinking the next few minutes of his life, "I think we should at least get the Elders. Or maybe Luca."
"Huh?" Jax looked genuinely contemplative. "Why? What's wrong? If it's an emergency, then maybe we can tell them to try harder."
Killian slowly lowered his hand.
It was now his turn to wonder what exactly that was supposed to mean.
Bracing himself because experience had already taught him that absolutely nothing straightforward ever followed whenever Jax said something that sounded completely ordinary, he asked carefully, "What do you mean... try harder?"
"Oh."
