𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐘 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐋 across Fontaine, the moon smiling in all her glory as she illuminated the dark blanket covering the Nation.

Y/N had found themselves back at The Hotel Bouffes D'ete, sat down in front of a steaming cup of tea kindly made by Lynette.

Arlecchino knew that her children would be at this very location, so she arrived promptly.

Arlecchino sat on a seat across from Y/N and her children, who all stared at her with expectant gazes. She chuckled at this before snapping her fingers.

"Well? I'm waiting." She spoke, referring to the fact that she wanted to hear about the progress of the mission.

"We managed to meet with Monsieur Neuvillette earlier today," Lyney begun, "He was able to arrange for us to meet with Miss Furina tomorrow evening."

Arlecchino rose a brow in surprise. She simply nodded her head before her eyes wavered over to Lynette who was sat beside her brother, clutching onto his hand.

"And you?" She asked.

Lynette shifted in her seat, an unsure expression on her face. She sighed heavily, her ears flopping down.

"I... Only managed to speak to a Gard before conversing with Monsieur Neuvillette. All I got from the Gard was that after the... Incident, Miss Furina tends not to show her face too much in public anymore. Getting any information out of her at all would prove to be quite the challenge."

A twisted grin pulled on Arlecchino's lips as she clasped her hands together with a satisfied sigh.

"I am pleased to hear that." She mused. "Worry not. With me around, I shall be able to recieve any information I require."

"What's this about an incident?" Wondered Y/N in confusion.

The siblings remained silent as did Arlecchino.

"Perhaps another day." Suggested Arlecchino abruptly. Y/N had no choice but to sigh and nod their head. They would pester the siblings about it later on, there was no doubt about that.

After receiving a firey glance from Arlecchino, Freminet cleared his throat and begun to speak.

"Whilst Lyney, Lynette and Y/N went to speak with Monsieur Neuvillette, I went to observe the security that Miss Furina has. She has a number of Gards and melusines protecting her, yet I doubt they'd be that difficult to get through if needed."

"Wonderful news." Lastly, Arlecchino's eyes stopped on Y/N. They tensed slightly, feeling intimidated under her sharp gaze.

"In all honesty, I haven't been able to get much information..." They muttered.

"However..." They then added, a glint of realisation evident in their eyes.

"Do tell." Encouraged Arlecchino with a subtle grin.
