[It was only a matter of time before Fiona slipped up. She's nowhere near close to perfect and, while she likes to think herself a great con-artist, she has plenty of moral hang-ups that she ought not to have that get her cornered at the worst of times. But the only way out was up, and the only way up was family politics.
Family politics involved a lot of...contact sports. Guns, knives, fists. At the end of the day, Fiona isn't a killer -- not really. She's totally capable of it, but its never her default and only a last resort.
So its become more common to see less and less of her, sometimes for days after she's been in a rough scuffle. She's not one for being fawned over or pampered, and the sting of injury often reminds her that she's still mortal. No matter how many times she might scrape away by the skin of her teeth, death could always be just a misstep away.
Tonight, its late when she's opted to return to Lilith's Crossing -- its done purposefully to make it less likely that she might run into someone on the long trek back to her room. She's nursing something at her side, but thanks to her attire, it makes it difficult to see exactly what the problem is.
But, as usual, tight body posture would give her away.]
