Rita, who's been sitting with her arms crossed and a slight frown on her face for most of this time, suddenly looks to Steven with her eyes wide. "Wait, Steven... you're serious?"
This isn't the first time the idea of involving the Summer Court's been brought up, but she sure didn't expect to hear it from this kid of all people.
She shifts in her seat, cupping her chin in her hand. "I'm not saying it's a bad idea, exactly... The Summer Court might want to know about the Huntsman's change in loyalties, and how a Winter fae so brazenly captured and tortured one of their own. The enemy of our enemy could be... maybe not a friend, but something to help even the odds here." Because right now, everything is firmly stacked against them. And maybe a common enemy is just the thing to get the Summer Court and the Summerlands talking...
"The last thing we'd want is to deal with the Rose Queen again, though..." Rita goes on to add, then looks to Ignatius. "Do you know of a way we can contact the Queen directly? Or at least in a way that won't be easily intercepted?"
