“When are you going to move?” Lem asked.
“Tomorrow.”
“I don’t know if that’s such a good idea.”
“I need to get as much information ahead of time as I can.”
“Still…”
This cagey attitude was going to wear thin very quickly. I swept my hand through the image to send it scattering into nothingness, then scooped up the paper before Lem could get to it.
“Hey! Give that back!”
Straightening, I retreated to the other side of the coffee table, keeping my fist curled tightly around the missive. “My assignment. I’m keeping it.”
Lem bared his fangs and finally stood. I tried not to sigh. His posturing really did get old after a while. “They’ll have my hide for letting you have that.”
“Then I suggest you figure out a way to hold onto it.”
“Your next courier might not be as generous as I am.”
“I should be so lucky. Are we done here?”
