"True. I'll call Zaneta to pick you up. Also, she has mentioned that she's your legal guardian, right? At least until other arrangements are made."

"Sure."

The rest of the evening passes pleasantly, with the Sokolovs merrily discussing Sadde's Manifestation. Moira's hoping he grows wings. 

He's hoping he only grows wings if he can retract them, having them around all the time sounds like a hassle.

Anyway, showers and bed. Aside from Hannah, who decides to go be a bird for a while.

And then it's the next morning.

There's a note on Sadde's door:

Dear Sadde, others at school, arrangements have been made for your admission to the clinic this evening, breakfast is waiting in the kitchen.

So she goes to the kitchen.

And there's Michael, still dripping wet, devouring three fish while sitting at the kitchen bench.

"Hi, Girl Sadde!"

"Hi, boy Michael."

"Zaneta said she would give me two fish if I kept you company today. I said I'd do it for no fish, but I'd still like some. So she gave me three fish!"

She giggles. "Well, thank you?"

"Want some?"

"Ew no."

"Aww, come on, I dare ya."

"Dare whoever you want I'm not gonna eat raw fish."

"But it's the nicest fish!"

"It'll give me a stomach ache."

He sighs. "Poor humans. Zaneta left you some eggs and bacon under the stasis thingy." He points to what looks like a shiny dome on the bench.

"...stasis thingy?" she asks, walking over that way.

"It keeps food hot and fresh, I think."

"Okay." She goes and... what the heck does she do with a shiny dome.

There's a button on the rim.

She presses it.
