"I see…I'm surprised Jellal didn't corner you about this sooner."

"Well, it would have been helpful for me but never mind that."

Cobra explained to Lucy all about the last night and morning, throwing in that Macbeth was also involved in keeping his secret but leaving out his discovery of the reflector mage's feelings towards her friend. She didn't seem in the mood to strategize with him on potential plans to make his teammate's life miserable. Maybe in a day or two, when they'd wrapped this whole love doctor affair up. "How about you? This is also early for you if I recall."

Lucy snorted. "You can thank Mira for that. She was banging on my door before the sun was even up in a near panic." She told how Mirajane had decided right away to investigate, and made sure to tell Lucy that the shop might not be open that day. (Which made him wonder what he would have done if he had come any later. Wait? Perhaps just an ounce of gratitude could be extended to Macbeth after all). Instead of going back to bed, Lucy insisted on helping her. "I wanted to see if I could spot something she didn't, two heads are better than one after all!"

Cobra shook his head at the repeating of that lame line. "How's that been going?"

Lucy sagged. "Not the best…I said I would check on some people. Which is why I grabbed these," she held up the notebook she'd been writing in the past few days, "to see if anyone we talked to would still be around so we could ask them questions."
