Order Only - Private message to Rachel Brodie

[alt_draco]

I'm trying to figure out if I've been compromised.

I have Russell's journal and scarcely anyone writes to him directly (a few of his co-workers, one of his neighbours, etc.). He makes very few entries, as well, but follows quite a few people.

A bit ago he got a PM from Jason Montague, who was in here last night with Finnigan, Troy Derwent, Alfred Montague, and Demetrius Martyn. They had a round of drinks and chatted about the reception for the Protectorate Security Society (more on that soon).

Montague didn't say a word to me last night other than to order drinks for everyone. But in his message he seems overly familiar. Said he might stop by some night when I'm closing alone, like "last time." And then he asked if it had been seven or eight months ago, and could I refresh his memory?

Essentially I can't tell if I (as Russell) am being propositioned or if I'm under suspicion.

Pretty sure he doesn't gossip about his job to Finnigan. How attached was Finnigan to him, could you tell?

Well he kept looking at Montague, that's for sure. Not in a gooey way, just sort of constantly checking in with eye contact and such. Montague seems to encourage or reward it. Gives him a little pat or whatever. They weren't hiding it in front of their mates.

Montague asks everyone loads of questions, then sits back and lets everyone else talk while he listens. Finnigan doesn't talk much, though - he listens like Montague does.
