[Bianca's dark eyes light up, and her smile is thin and sharp.]
Now there's a delightful proposition. Delight is probably their weakest link, much as I loathe the idea of imperilling my tequila supply. What do you want to do with her when you catch her?
[Despite the laughter, Bianca's anger circles the confines of her mind like a shark in a too-small aquarium, fierce and primevally cold.]
All the rights we have here are what they allow us. If we want more, we will have to seize it.
[She doesn't need to tell Wanda she's absolutely up for attempting it. Even without telepathy, it's clear in the lines of her mouth and eyes, the coiled-spring tension of her spine.]
[ Her eyes flicker red, a muscle twitches in her jaw. It's a steel trap, and all she sees are towering columns, faint music, and stars, stars. Bianca is not human; she is deep and vast, it's closed and controlled, seething, uncrammed. ]
[ Wanda exhales sharply and shakes her head. ]
A little. I knew you were angry.
[ She's processing the rest, with shaky breaths. ]
[Accepting that with the gratitude she does feels cowardly to Bianca, and she closes her eyes briefly while she stuffs the fleeting spark of shame away out of her own sight.
She's not afraid of anything the gods might do to her. She is genuinely afraid of potentially torching what remains of her goodwill with the other residents.]
[ Nothing of her plan, how she intends to corner Delight; Wanda's not letting anyone take the fall for a mistake if that's how it ends up. It's her choice. ]
[Bianca tilts her head, considering. She understands plausible deniability; she has already attempted to take as much blame as she can for Silent Hill. She doesn't really understand why Wanda would do the same - Bianca wants this as much as she does - but hell, she decides. She'll take it.
Well. Almost.]
At least keep me on speed dial. By telephone or by other means. Could you reach me at a distance?
Yes, I can reach across the city. I will call if there is any trouble.
[ She says, having zero intention of doing precisely that. Wanda isn't a liar by necessity or nature, she is simply straightforward. Maybe she will call -- but it's unlikely. ]

I am concerned about potential collateral damage.
