[se] one day in the city

NOAH

Noah was not surprised at her shock. She closed the distance between them, and instinctually Noah reached out to embrace the woman in a hug to his side. Her questions came flooding in, and with them took away the smile that had broken his face upon scouting her. "Yes...I, well, it is quite complicated. I came here to talk to you about it, actually..." He pulled on the sleeve of his coat some.

"I'll explain everything, if you have time for me." He realized that he had never sent word to her, never told her to expect him. He wasn't sure if she would have time for him today. She might be busy -- he didn't know what her life looked like in this city, with her new role as Frey's demigoddess. Noah realized, then, that he hardly ever sent word to Phoebe when he sought her out. When she was in Torchline and he came to speak to her about Frey he had not announced it. She had made time for him then, so the hunter was hopeful she would now.
