Yes, my dear?

I am glad to see you as well. *sits beside him and smiles* Andrew Ffoulkes is back. And you're ... not seven, and treating Chauvelin like family.

But still ill. Oh, Armand.

*hugs her because he can't help it* Yes, ill. I can't even begin to explain how difficult these last few weeks have been. "Don't worry," they all say. "Slow down," they say. How can I do this? I can no more do this than change the past or stop loving you.

*strokes his hair softly, smiling*

I understand this. I understand all of it best I can, Armand, dear -- while not in your head, I can try my best to follow.

I do wish I could be more help, though.

*won't let go but mostly because he rather hopes she won't see the tears in his eyes*

My dear sweet angel... with everything that happened you, yourself, never pressured me. Never pushed. But I do beg of you now to please hang on, stay with me through this.

Victoria is still ill. And I am afraid of this man, this wizard, who may have had something to do with-- *bites his tongue* *ponders* He may have hurt me before, during a time I do not remember. He makes threats and taunts me. Worst than even Chauvelin in a way as it is me he means to harm. And I haven't any idea why except that some men like to prey on those that seem weaker than they.

If I manage to survive this too, I mean to marry you. If you'lll have me, that is.

Of course I will. Always at your side when you need me, I do promise ...

... and I worry for her. Victoria is wonderful, really, and I do understand how you can love her. She is kind.

Who is this man? I -- I should like to speak to him myself. I've become very cross with the fellow already. *a bold statement made by a woman whose threats sound like they're coming from a six-year-old, of course.*

Oh, I will. Of course I will.

*squeezes her more tightly and kisses her hair*

You are the best. I don't deserve you.

I have to be supportive. if it wasn't for me, Chauvelin would never have harmed her.

*finally pulls back and looks into her eyes* If I tell you his name, you must promise to stay away from him. He is dangerous.

Of course you do. Am I, Armand, love, or is that you?

And ... well. All right. I just -- worry, so much. But I will stay away.

It's you. All you.

*still gazing into her eyes* Evan Rosier, and please don't cross him.
