B sits in a room at the Bismarck Hotel, idly shuffling a deck of cards he had picked up at the souvenir shop. He had laid low since the incident at the Written in Water and wasn't about to step outside even to stretch his legs or get some fresh air. The assassination attempt on him was foiled by the help of his newfound benefactor, Reverb, who had also secured for him the room. B thought it best that way too, already having been responsible for the injury to Reverb's Awakened friend, Miach. The less people that were hurt, the better.
Still, it was incredibly boring having the room all to himself. He didn't know and couldn't trust any other Mages in town, not yet. He supposed he could gather Mana to start working on the Imbuements he promised Reverb, but he didn't yet have the item to work with. He was also fairly sure the hotel was owned by one of the Pentacle's Order and he didn't want to start setting off alarms or anything they might have set up. When he got the call that Reverb had been hospitalized, B was pretty worried that the deal would be off and he'd be back on the run. Luckily Reverb had made it out of the scrape, though at the cost of an eye. These Sacramento Mages seemed to have it tough.
B flipped off his fedora, tossing it on the bed as he began to flick cards at the makeshift container, practicing his aim.
At this point Reverb is out of the hospital and B has gone from staying at Reverb's Sanctum to hiding out at a room in the Bismark. Reverb will have had a chance to contact Miach, Rossi, as well as any others who have approached Reverb about the shooting he was involved in.
