Skulduggery had asked for his own mobile back, but... given the cringe Gabriel was failing to hide completely, the detective let it slide and rewarded the advanced smartphone with a small glare instead.

No more Archangel shortcuts, Skulduggery decided. Gabe was supposed to be trying to heal, and Skulduggery hadn't lost his magnetism for trouble, it seemed. The same thing had happened with Valkyrie. Despite her Ancient lineage, Skulduggery should not have dragged her everywhere after him for no real practical reason. Though Gabe, like Valkyrie, was incredibly stubborn; there wasn't much Skulduggery could have done to dissuade either of them.

"Thank you." He slipped the phone into his pocket and locked the car, noting with some annoyance that the phone was a little too big for its usual pocket now. "China's going to be suspicious enough of you without believing you've mastered two different Adept disciplines. That, and when she gets jealous, she'll do everything she can to sabotage the cause of it. You should probably take the face away."
