She did. And I am currently workshopping a plan, but I have no intention in letting them get anything they want.
[She says that directly to Cora, and Cora's Hale glare is in full force but whatever, they're the rescue team, she'll either trust them.
For now.]
Do the conference rooms at the federal building have clear walls?
[That's for either Sweets or Stiles to answer whenever they're ready.
"Of course I feel it. I've been living with it my entire fucking life!" When you grow up in the Colony there's always a Sword of Damocles waiting to fall. "And we will get this done. But if we're going to be bringing in our allies, we have to negotiate in good faith until we can't. Otherwise we're going to have no allies left when we're done, and we'll be no better than them. Because the other part of this was making things better."]
I'm thinking that if they want to keep an eye on Stiles, they can do that. Through a fishbowl.
[Cora narrows her eyes at her. "A few more details than that?"]
Barrier spells. Sealing them into a conference room across the way from a glass conference room where "Stiles" happens to be. It doesn't have to really be Stiles, I can work up an illusion with a little help.
[She glances over to Shep, since Luke is unavailable.]
But basically they're following their orders but not actually getting what they want. We just have to get them behind the barrier spells.
[Which could be easier said than done. But it's what Liv's got on the fly.
"I know." David rubs his eyes. "I'll ... try to call them off."
And he will try. But ... Jaqueline will ignore him.]
Yeah, well, I'm open to suggestions if anyone else has a better idea?
[Or suggestions to make her idea better. She drums her fingers against her leg as she tries to whirl the pieces into place.]
We needed neutral territory and now we have that. You guys know the federal building better than I do. Is there a way to separate him from them before they get to the conference room?
[Liv nods, because it does give them a chance to something. "Jaqueline can probably steamroll anyone who tries to get in her way with her creepy mind powers. She's a Melroux."
At that, Sweets perks up behind steering wheel and points to Stiles.]

That would determine side of the building, floor, maps for going in and out. )
What are you thinking?
Shepherd is ready to wait for a clue into this plan.
"We are. We will." He takes his husband's hand in his. "I'm sorry." )

( "Yeah, I'm not not grateful we're faking my physical presence, but, where does your brother the hostage fit in all of this?"
Pulled over, finally, Stiles and everyone awaits further ideas. )

( Not a lot of room to bait and switch, but, even seconds could give them enough time, if he's understanding her plan properly. )

Call Audrey.
[He has something of a plan.]
