But if you don't mind a hit to your pocketbook, and don't mind going a bit off the beaten path, you want to trek out to Heybridge and find L's," she said, putting extra emphasis on the letter.

Mutant friendly, too, if this universe is anything like mine; I worked there for a summer job for a while, as L -- the original L, I should say -- worked her magic. This is all assuming a trip to London is out of both budget and time, of course," she added, almost as an afterthought.

"Of course, if you want something custom for just the night, I'm sure I could find a friend or two willing to help out, as always," she added, as an afterthought. "But everything has its time and its place."
