For once, the manor was quiet. They'd finished a rather long round of performances, and by the time they got back even Rabbit was ready for some rest, and so The Spine saw no problem in bringing a book out of the Hall of Wires where he usually hid. Instead he took it outside, figuring he could enjoy some of the sunshine while things were peaceful. He was quickly engrossed, barely taking note when the humans piled into the van, undoubtedly to get something to eat. He didn't mind. He knew he could call them if they were needed, and they were only ever gone a few hours at most usually.
As absorbed by his reading as he was, he still kept an audio receptor tuned, knowing that the peace and quiet could only last so long... and someone> had to keep an eye on his brothers if they got mischief into their processors.
