> Like how This three will react to another thread, that they didn't spin, showing up in the tapestry...
Maybe something like this.

* * *Taking her leave of Megumi, Skuld dashed into the temple andsought out the telephone. As she had hoped, they'd put thestranger in Keiichi's room, which was as far away from the phoneas one could get and still be inside. Sparing a quick glancearound to make sure she was alone, she lifted the handset anddialed a long sequence of numbers that connected to no telephoneon the mortal plane.It was answered."Hi, Atropos, yeah, it's me. I think I might have a problemhere. I need to talk to Father."As Skuld stood hunched over the phone, her back to the templeentrance, she failed to notice Megumi enter. Megumi, for herpart, froze at the end of the hall when she heard Skuld ask forher father. The three sisters rarely spoke of their father, andwhen they did they were maddeningly vague, though it was clearthat they felt great warmth and love for him. This was the firsttime Megumi had stumbled upon one of the three actually speakingwith him, and her curiosity proved far stronger than her sense ofpropriety. She slid behind a shoji screen and listened."Hello, Father," Skuld said. "I... No, the Tether is just fine.It's just that I... No, Bell's okay, and Urd's... Urd's Urd.I... No, Keiichi's okay, too. I... Father! You *know* all thisalready, why are you asking..."A pause, then softer, almost contrite. "Yes, sir. I understand,Father."Another pause. "There's a... stranger here. He came throughsome kind of planar gate, Father! Essence all over! TheDisturbance was huge!"Skuld fumed through another brief silence. "That's what *I* wantto know! Is he a danger?""I'm sorry, Father, I didn't mean to shout at you. I'm justworried about Belldandy and... about Belldandy. What if he'ssome kind of exotic ploy by the Other Side?""What do you mean, I'll just have to find that out for myself?Father! Father, don't hang up on me! Fa... Oh, poo."Skuld hung up the receiver with unnecessary roughness and Megumislid silently back out of the hallway. The conversation hadn'tsounded quite like what Megumi'd been expecting, and she wantedto think about it. * * *
