74th Devotion: Safeguarding possessions

[favoritetraitor]

I see that the city has some guests once again. And if any are currently seeing this, I would like to ask that you kindly refrain from taking 'souvenir's' from the lab, or my office. I don't know how you managed to get past the security measures last time, but it does prove to be a hindrance to very important work.

Thank you.

Of course, it's Marishka's home, after all.

[favoritetraitor]

It will be different, won't it? A child in the house... I'm afraid I have no experience in this.

[liveontoday]

Ah, well... you know as much as I do really. Kai took care of the twins more than I did.

[favoritetraitor]

Oh, yes. Of course. Well, perhaps this will be good for both of us for when we have children.

[liveontoday]

I don't think me taking care of her child would be an issue, Solomon.

[She seems bemused at this if anything. No hint of anger or disappointment, just acceptance.]

[favoritetraitor]

Well, there's no guarantee that she'll be staying, seeing as how we have this influx of people in the city. This has happened before and only lasted about the length of the average curse.

[liveontoday]

... I see.

I can't imagine what that must be like then. To have and then to lose... particularly a child.

[favoritetraitor]

Yes. I think it's been hard on her without her family around to support her. But, at least she's not alone now...

[liveontoday]

That's true. You two really do support each other, don't you.

[favoritetraitor]

Isn't that what family is for? Even adopted family...

[liveontoday]

Of course.
