"Oh my." He really did lift a lot. Edward decided to tell himself that he wasn't getting flustered over that, on account of not being a teenager, instead he focused on lifting up the ceiling plate and getting the phone he had hidden there. He put a hand on Harvey's shoulder to get down again, smiling sweetly. "Thank you ever so, sailor."
All right, focus, he had to do that. He was already turning on the phone, punching in a couple of codes to get through and then he dialled a number he'd memorised, waiting for one of the girls to pick up. "I pay a retainer to Echo and Query, whenever I'm stuck here. That way, they know to keep themselves available."
Why was he explaining this to Harvey? Well, he supposed this had a bit of a mentorship to it. Harvey was learning how this worked. Or at least trying to figure out how this could work for him. "I'll have them pick us up, they can bring clothes. What's your..." Looking Harvey over, he tried to estimate. "I guess you wear anything in Hunks'R'Us."
