Summary: Why in the name of everything that was, is, or will be holy, had he not thought to knock before waltzing in? A moment with Ivan Vorpatril, his mother, and his former boss.
Author's note: This was written for trobadora, during the 2015 Fandom Stocking fun. This vignette takes place during the events of "Memory," after Miles has figured out what's happening between Alys and Ilyan, but before Ivan storms in to bellow at him about that very situation.
Edited by: myself, somewhat obsessively. I take the blame for misspellings, bad sentence construction and out of character characterizations.
Disclaimer: Much as I might wish it were otherwise, nothing in the Vorkosiverse is mine. Everything is the property of Lois McMaster Bujold. I intend no copyright infringement and take no coin. I do, however, love the characters and thank Ms Bujold for letting me play in her sandbox.
