Between Duncan and the various little hoards of assets Connor has squirreled away, Connor still makes fairly regular visits to his world of origin. His kinsman remains the more important of these two reasons, and as long as Duncan is living there, the visits will continue. Duncan is family.
This has already caused trouble once, though, since in his own world he runs the risk of encountering other immortals, and there's no anti-violence field there. Connor's not one to run from a fight, either. Thanks to working the forge and a healthy home life, he's back in fighting shape now, but his reputation was tarnished by the mess with Jacob Kell and he hasn't been around enough for word to get out that he's not an easy target anymore.
This visit, he's gone past dinner time, and it's late when the call comes via PINpoint.
"Er... Kai? I'm uhh..." His voice cracks, even raspier than usual. "I'm in the Seacouver jail..."

Date: 2012-03-11 04:46 am (UTC)It doesn't take long to get ready to go, except that as she's pulling on shoes she decides she might want to take a friend with her. Her sister's first on the short list of people to call. "Okay, so Connor's in jail, and I have to go to NYC to get him. Are you available to ride with, by any chance?" By the bit of stunned silence on the other side of the phone, she slowly comes to the realization that her boyfriend is in jail in NYC. It's not like her other boyfriends - friends that were boys, okay? - ever ended up in jail, they were sort of the people that .. you know, jailed people themselves.
"Fraid not, sis. I told Jake I'd keep calm and carry on. The baby's been moving a lot," her sister says once she's regained her mind. "...Call Hyou and see if he'll go? Or Jake himself?"
"I'll try."
Kairos doesn't call Hyou, or Jake, though they'd both be excellent choices. She calls the one person who might be able to even know the time period she's going to. John Hart. After pleasantries - which always takes a few minutes with John, as he's so exuberant - she gets down to business. "Boyfriend's in jail, I have to bail him out? Wanna come? We'll get cupcakes on the way back."
