Corbie tried to keep stuff separate when it came to the guys she was fucking, and Mildmay appreciated that. But he hadn't missed her crying more, or her avoiding Jackson some. And since, from what she'd said, she hadn't avoided Jackson after he went and got himself killed when one of those doors to another world opened, or when he had to run from the Dogs 'cause he stole a bus full of flashie tourists in another of those worlds, whatever was going on this time was serious.
Not that Mildmay'd done or said nothing about it, telling himself she'd ask for his help if she wanted it, and wondering if maybe she was afraid of what he'd do to Jackson if she did.
So when Jackson acted like Mildmay was just gonna go about his business, Mildmay added that to the list of arguments for 'this guy is batfuck'. 'Cause he was, if he thought Mildmay was gonna just drop it.
"You ain't planning her to see you like this." It might have been a question. It might have been a threat. With Mildmay's scar and his Lower City accent, who could tell?
