Errant can't help but laugh at Hope's suggestions of some kind of mystical geas. "I've kept secrets for a living, and had security clearance up to here for both the government and the Trust," he says, holding up his hand above his head. "And yet to help you learn your own secret, painful childhood, you require some kind of mystical bargain in exchange for my help?" Errant laughs again at the sheer ridiculousness of the affair. "Not in a million years, Hope. I make it a point to not let others control my actions," he adds. "Just what kind of secret would an eight year old be protecting?" Family, obviously. Maybe dear Hope is the illicit lovechild, er...lustchild, of Captain Thunder and the Hellqueen. Heh.
"Oh yeah," he adds, snapping his fingers in sudden recall. "Speaking of medical backup, you want to head down to the hospital and pay a visit on our recovering superheroine? Raven, I mean. It might help if she sees a friendly face when she wakes up, so she doesn't flip out, knock half of us unconscious, kill the power, and crawl up the ventilation shafts?"
"But what kind of intel do you expect to gather from the good lawyers of Wolfson, Shep, and Doe? I have to say, I like Wren's idea of going after Barrington's supply chain. And I'm not sure that putting Star anywhere near a law firm is a good idea right now. Besides, wouldn't that be illegal? Especially for a federal agent? Aren't lawyer-client privileges virtually sacrosanct?"
"Oh Hope," Errant says, shaking his head in mock disdain. "You're such a rebellious anti-hero."
