Jenna opened a portal into the room that Elsa was in. Normally she would teleport into the room next to where her roommate was, but she was in a blind panic. Ever since the meeting with Cruella, she knew she needed some advice. And she needed it fast. "Elsa, I need your help." She called out.

Signing court orders was the last thing Elsa needed to do. Her pen had been on the line when Jenna cried out. A hideous scratch appeared on the signature place, and the lawyer scowled. Normally Jenna would have appeared in another room and nosed her way in. The portal has instead opened in her office. Setting the pen down, Elsa spun around in her chair.
“Jenna?”

At her roommate's tone, Jenna flicked her ears back in silent apology. When Elsa turned toward her, the Hearthound was crouched near the ground with her tail and ears tucked. "Sorry." She said softly not making eye contact. She had known that opening a portal right to where Elsa was would have a slight risk of her disturbing her friend.

Elsa shook her head. Rather than being scolding or forcing Jenna to look her in the eye or run out, a semi-smile was forming. The stress over Weiss - and Ralph letting her know it'd be oka - had eased her anxiety. "Youre lucky you weren't in here yesterday when I was freezing everything." It shocked her that Jenna didn;t hear her heart and make a comment.

If Jenna hadn't been so worked up about her confrontation with Cruella, she would have made a comment about the change in Elsa's heart. "I've had.... a lot on my mind." She said getting up from the floor once she realized that Elsa was smiling. She sat down wrapping her tail around her paws. Cutting straight to the chase she said. "I need your help on something."

“What’s wrong?” Jenna had never been the kind to sugarcoat things. Was it from her raising in the pack before Elsa opened her door to let her stay? Had that pack come to hunt her down? But the hearthound has been...casual, sort of, about the whole thing

"I...." Jenna said trying to figure out where to start. "Well, first things first I guess." She said. Taking a breath fidgeting her paws beneath her tail she began. "I'm in love, but being what I am the chances of them liking me in that way is small. And I came across someone who offered me a way to be with him, but I'm not sure if I should make the deal." She had used the words that Cruella had used because a part of her did believe that because she was a Hearthound, a being of the Underworld, no one could love her.

Elsa frowned. Deals made with the heart and not the head were the dumbest ones made. If someone cared deeply and the person of interest didn’t feel the same, everything was wasted. There was also the matter of that none of this ever came up before. “Jenna, There’s a fine line between a crush and being in love.” She looked long and hard at the hearthound. “Which is it?”

Jenna thought for a few minutes. "I guess it's more of a crush." She admitted after a while. "The issue still stands though." She said looking at her roommate.

“Yes. It does.” Friendliness gave way to seriousness. If someone had been using Jenna’s emotions as a means to make a deal, it reeked of dark intentions. The only comfort the lawyer was having had been that her roommate hadn’t said yes without going over the guidelines. “What, exactly, was the rule?”

"In exchange for the finest Sapien she has access to," Jenna said still ashamed that she had even thought about saying yes to the deal. "She wants the ability to use my portals." As a general rule, only Hearthounds could travel through the portals they opened. The exception was that they could bring those they trusted through them, but since Hearthounds usually only associated with other Hearthounds the exception was hardly ever used.

Elsa narrowed her eyes. This deal was fishier with each detail. Sapien was back in drug stores as a prescription drug. Why would someone sell it for something than can easily be bought at a store?
Unless...
Fear gripped Elsa. Small snowflakes started flutterrimgbin the office. Very bad people could have been following the Grey Dawn. Had Jenna said yes..,
“You were right to come to me,” she breathed.

Jenna's eyes followed a couple of the snow flurries that Elsa had made appear. "Good to know I did something right." She said her self-esteem still suffering from her talk with Cruella. "So what should I do?" She asked looking Elsa directly in the eyes.

“Well, ask yourself this. Have you actually spoken to your crush? I can’t guarantee Sapien will make him care for you if he doesn’t even know you exist...” Elsa couldn’t risk Jenna sacrificing her hearthound skills, and her emotions. If the crush didn’t feel the same or wasn't interested, this wasn’t worth all this trouble,

"If by talk you mean, tell him how I feel?" Jenna said. "No. He does know that I exist though. He even knows what I am." She continued still looking directly at her roommate's eyes.
