Iman represses a sigh at Rush's ongoing cutthroat urgency - yeah, all right, they do really need to get out, but he also needs to calm down a little, the attitude isn't helping anything. She leaves him alone, though, figuring he's earned some leniency with what he's done today.

"If you're sure," she says to the Balladeer. "Contact me when you've got her things and I'll let you know where to meet me." She expects he'll understand that she doesn't want Greta going anywhere, nor does she want to broadcast her decently well-obfuscated whereabouts to even a trusted ally.

"Come on, we're almost out." She pulls Greta through another door into the last stairwell up to the lobby. "Best thing to do might be to scatter as soon as we're out," she says. "Don't know what it's like out there, even if their resources are stretched - Rush gets back to where he's staying, I'll take Greta, and you somewhere to lie low for a while." It's sort of intoned like a question, like she wants everyone's input on this, but she's also pretty much giving orders right now. As far as she can see it this is the best plan. She doesn't like the idea of parting ways with Rush but she won't leave Greta either, and Greta needs her more right now.
