It's been a few days since the clone turned up on his doorstep, and the subsequent and eventful visit to Milliways.

Obadiah is certain that Tony must know by now and has been taking the time to absorb the information. He'll show up to confront Obadiah sooner or later; Obadiah doesn't expect to wait for much longer.

When he returned home from Milliways, he made the call he'd intended to. Just with a different request. Galen is on standby. (He loves the plan, of course - the sadistic nature of the vampire in action. He's promised to send his best and most controlled vampires on the errand. They can all be trusted to obey their leader and bring Obadiah back alive no matter how tempting his blood is, but some are more skilled than others in making an attack look worse than it is.) With a little luck, Tony will pick nighttime to have it out. If he doesn't, that's fine. Arrangements can be made for later. But it will be easiest if he does.

So Obadiah waits.

It's been a little longer than Obadiah might have liked since Milliways's last appearance - long enough that the bites on his neck have healed over with shining new scar tissue. They can be mostly hidden with a carefully arranged collar, and he does that during the day, especially at work. His disappearance created enough gossip as it was. No need to provide fresh material.

He's not doing that now, though. He's loosened his tie and tugged down his collar, because here there are certain parties whose reactions he's very interested in.
