At the same time that things were heating up for Taylor and Karen, a different kind of warming up was happening in a different part of the tower.
Pamela was at her fucking limit.
It was one thing when the tower had been on a complete lockdown and no one without verified passes could enter the tower. It had been closed to everyone, including the public that had lovingly been visiting the tower for better food and a chance to get to see the Espers and Guides that they loved up close.
Pamela had hated to make that call, but for the safety of their people, she had to. Which meant that the weight of a pass had gotten heavier. That along with Pamela's past mistakes were coming to bite her in the ass, along with mingling with someone she had not only a huge professional crush on, but someone who would have the clearance to come into her tower at a moment's notice.
