Blood 31

Chapter 31
Back now to the Big Stone Witch House, where Verna is waking up after a long night's IM chat with Hypocrite. She admires the beautiful sunrise, watches some ducks, and returns to her office where she manipulates two of her underlings into taking care of the stacks of paperwork she'd been dealing with up until now. Remember, open and honest communication = bad; deception and manipulation = good.
Verna goes looking for Warren, musing on how the Nuns have been studying prophecies for thousands of years, but it takes the super-special penis magic of a prophet to truly comprehend them, so the Nuns have been wasting their time. Nathan is the only prophet the Nuns have found in nearly a millennium, until Warren came along. Wow, prophets are really, fantastically, unbelievably rare. There's reference to Sister Becky, who is pregnant; not sure whether she will be relevant later,
Another Nun, Sister Leoma, tells Verna that Warren is gone. As in, packed up and left. Leoma couldn't stop him because Verna de-collared him, so he can move out of his parents' basement leave whenever he wishes. He's been gone for two days; he asked Leoma not to tell Verna for a few days so she couldn't drag him back. Well, that's the implication, anyway.
Verna realizes that her peremptory treatment of Warren probably drove him away, and she has the sads.
That was short and almost painless.
Drinks: None.
