Trouble in Genosha
Paris and Carmella had gotten to bed late, after some extra time and work and much interest and speculation on the whole Latverian Thing. But going to bed late normally never prevented them from getting up early.

This morning, it didn't happen. The sun was starting to climb high by the time Carmella groggily stirred, barely able to open her eyes.

"Oh, that's my loss." Julian says smoothly, realizing she wouldn't bring such up unless there were prying ears about.

"Well, I hope you'll consider my invitation to visit the Club, anyway. Bring your boyfriend as well." Julian says, cringing inwardly at the term. "I'm sure you two can still have a good time."

He takes two steps back from Giovanna and bumps into someone who was obviously trying to look like he wasn't listening in on their conversation, even as he held a small camera in their direction The man drops his camera, which hits the floor...and is "accidentally" stepped upon by Julian. A second man walks up immediately and they both look at Julian with expressions of distaste.

"Excuse me, please. Oh, sorry about your camera. It looked expensive." Julian says aloud, even as he reaches out to with his magnetism to confirm what he thought he felt during the bump. Yes, a knife.

"No issue, /comrade/." the man says icily in Russian-accented English. He's dressed in a gray pinstripe suit with black hair and goatee, but he doesn't look like a delegate of any kind. The other man is bald and wears a black suit, but his eyes fix upon Julian with barely concealed menace.

In a rare use of his telepathy, Julian reaches out to Giovanna.

Knife on this man behind me. The second one also has a weapon.

Giovanna's fairly unused to hearing any telepathic voice besides her fathers, and the slightest subtle hints of feeling from Andrew on those very rare occasions when all her shields are down. So Julian's sudden contact is a surprise.

People getting past the U.N. Plaza checkpoints with knives was certainly unusual. And were they trying to seem threatening? Really? Right now? Oh, it would just make her day. Rage surged inside her, but she locked it down hard. She had to. She had a job to do.

They won't hurt me. Even if they're stupid enough to try.

Even with Giovanna's confidence, Julian makes his way to a security guard and nudges his mind /just/ enough to be suspicious of those two men near Giovanna.

Several minutes later, a U.N. Security Guard walks up the Russian men as they approach Giovanna and politely asks to speak to them.

Both men have no choice but to follow, lest they give the guard a reason to call in back-up.

Giovanna's grateful to Julian. Not for protecting her -- she could have easily teleported towards security, if she had to. But for removing temptation.

Knives? Really? Did she go bringing /her/ edged weapons into the UN grounds? No. She followed the rules. Not that she needed her knife to hurt somebody, but it was the principle of the thing.

Eventually, she does get her meeting, and follows Andrew's instructions to the letter.
