Shane sat in a chair in the music room, hoping his email got a few bites. He had brought his guitar in case nobody showed and was busying himself by experimenting with a few guitar riffs.

Will poked his head in.

"This the room for interfering in British politics?"

He stopped playing.

"When it isn't the room for rockin' out anyway."

"Cool. So, what's up?"

"Basically? I want to see if Farage is one of those aliens still at large. Because UKIP has been acting suspiciously nonpartisan about inviting them the PM to their upcoming fundraiser. My gut says it's a trap."

"I gave my bloody UKIPper of a father some bullshite about proving they totally don't hate mutants by letting me and a friend or two make an appearance. Good PR. I think he's going to bite."

"So, you're looking for a date, 'zat it?"

"Do I look like the type to drag a date somewhere where she'll be scowled at by nationalists?"

"Well, okay, I would and we'd laugh about it later. But no, no need to be my pretend girlfriend."

"So we show up, and...

...what kind of trap do you think this is?"

"Replacing the PM would be a major victory for the shifty bastards wouldn't it?"

"You're thinking they're planning on....what, Skrull-replacing him?"

"As little as I think of UKIP, I'm sure they're just being used if anything. It's the alien shifty bastards I'm worried about."

"But that is the issue, right? You think the PM walking in won't be the PM walking out?"

"I feel it's a possibility worth ruling out. But, having no evidence, I can't take it to Minamida. So this isn't official."

"Yeah, I don't listen to a collection of 1s and 0s to tell me what to do. If you think something is suspicious, let's roll.

Have a plan for how we're going to keep tabs on things?"

"It's going to be a challenge without a telepath, but perhaps you could slip into the PMs detail and keep an eye on him."

Will mused and nodded. "Makes sense. I don't suppose you happen to know who will be IN said detail?" he said, hopefully.

He laughed. "Right! As if I could never get access to that information."

"You'll have to be a pen or something."

Will laughed. "A fair point.

You'll have to find a way to slip me on the PM's person -- and to make sure he doesn't just set me down or something. You're a clever chap, though; I'm sure you'll think of SOMETHING.

A pen makes a lot of sense, if you're sure he'll pocket it. Flyers or leaflets go straight into the trash, in my experience, and anything too fancy tends to get pawned off of aides or something for safekeeping. It'd have to be something he won't think too much about carrying around with him, and keeping throughout the night -- like, a wineglass is right out, because at events like this, I'll bet he'll through a ton.

It'd be easier if we could gain access to him before the event, but something tells me that would be a) difficult and b) probably illegal."

"We'll have to improvise and hope the Skrulls do try something because both of those are true regardless."

"This would also be easier with a third person on board."

"I've gone in with fewer," Will smiled. "But the more the merrier."

"I'm fairly good at improvising, though I hope we don't have to resort to extreme measures."

"What exactly do you consider extreme measures?"

"I'd prefer not having to be a canape, because it would be very difficult to intervene in case of emergency."

"Rule number one -- there's an exception to every rule," he nodded, mock-seriously.

"I'm going to stick with 'Don't get eaten,' thank you very much," he smirked.

"So... I guess I should smuggle you in as an object? Fewer questions about where you disappeared to."

"Makes sense to me. Odds are no one would notice at a big party, but you can never be too careful."

"Security at political events is no joke. Though, obviously, I don't think they could handle one of these Skrulls."

"Not and remain unsuspicious. I've seen them have these big, bulky combat suits...but then, I guess that's a way off, isn't it?"

"Next step up from bullet-proof vests, I'm afraid. Society marches on.

When IS this shin-dig?"

"In three days. That enough time for you?"

"Too much time, if anything. I'll be ready to go when you are," he grinned. "Gives me a day or two to read up on the PM."

"Anytime. If you need a practice run, come up and see me. Otherwise, I'll see you on mission day, yeah? Looking forward to it."
