Re: After Will and Magnus

It all happens in a flash - the teleportation snap-hiss, the impact, the apology - and Kate's reaching for a knife and snark. None of that stops her. It's the scent, strongest memory trigger. The body that just collided with her is Magnus.

"Hey." Kate drops the knife back into her pocket and grabs for the boss instead. "It's okay. It's me." Relief sweeps her. She was right. Not Druitt. It fades just as fast. Magnus is crying. The only other time... Ashley... oh god. Kate puts her arms around her and holds on. Maybe if she disappears again, Kate will at least go with her. "Hey," she says and this time it's softer. "You're safe." And that's a promise.
