[He doesn't know how much of this he gets to remember when he gets back, but it's going to be a hell of a lot easier to leave Dave in Oakland if he knows he'll be okay.]
Maggie knocks on his door later the same day, looking giddy with relief and
not sure what to do with it.
The second the door opens, she'll tell him, "We got him. He's safe,
settled at my house with Alaric, taking care of my dogs and helping with
custody plans for Alaric's little sister."
Shaun hasn't literally been holding his breath, but he lets it out now anyway, stepping back so that Maggie can come in if she wants to. He grins at her. "I wasn't sure the weirdness of all this," here he gestures at the Barge around them, "would be able to touch our real lives. I'm glad I was wrong."
"So fucking glad," Maggie agrees fervently. "Iris's inmate graduated, so
she had a deal, and she'd promised it to me for Dave if she couldn't save
him without it. So we had to figure out the logistics if she was giving
her deal away to someone else. And it was John's graduation; if anyone
should have that deal, it was him. He needed it."
