Officially, their Warrant is the location and escort back to Leith one Calysta De Fraes, a relief worker who is now stuck in a riot 'hot zone,' proving no good deed goes unpunished.
That's officially what they're doing. Unofficially it's turned out exactly like one would expect of one person who has more heart than common sense, and one who has exactly the common sense to know the big damn heart thing is going to get them into trouble, yet...you know, going there anyway. Combine that with the fact that Old Town doesn't per se make for easy traveling right now, and they get to the Eastern Distract later than Peter would like. Which is to say what anyone else would consider "on time."
He stops Neal once the mining facility is in sight, one hand curling around his (...Neal's, curse you pronouns) forearm. "You know who we're looking for?"
This isn't a trick question; with Neal's Level 4 Evaluation looming, Peter's been trying to let him take the lead on things. It sorely tests his nigh-pathological need to control everything the light touches, but so far their weird balance has worked for them.
