That guy is your brother?

Interesting that the girl's behaviour isn't quite as straightforward as you thought.

In a sense. But not by blood.

It's only started changing recently. She had a strong sudden reaction when she saw Earl Cain at a party, and then again just now. Other than that, she's been much the same.

In what sense, then?

Hmmm...fascinating. Be careful, Jez. Horror movies have taught me not to discount that sort of thing in one's creations.

His father has considered me a sort of foster son since not long after my arrival at Delilah.

Movies? [/Victorian Era derpfail] I'll do my best to keep an eye on her. If the Earl's going to be sniffing around, we'll have to tread carefully until he's gone or otherwise distracted.

Oh, I get it. Like a foster brother, but not that you grew up together?

Good luck, then. I'd keep a close eye on her, for sure. I wonder why she'd have such a strong reaction to a single person.

Essentially, yes.

I'm not sure, really. None of the other dolls ever reacted as she does, nor does it make sense for one person to be able to cause this.

I see!

Well, there's got to be a good reason.

I imagine there must be. Though why the Earl is the trigger is beyond me. If it's some 'power of love' nonsense I may vomit.

It looks a little like she's in love with him.

They've only seen each other twice. For about thirty seconds each time. That said, I won't discount the idea, but if it's true I may scream.

Hmm... twice since she died, or was one of those times before she was killed? Maybe she's met him more times than you think?

Twice since she's died, and since either Cassian or myself is with her throughout the day, I doubt there've been any other times. And I doubt the Earl knows her since before her death, since he did not seem to recognize her.

Love at first sight then, maybe.

I really, truly hope not.
