"All right, bedrooms are up this way." Up the stairs. "Irene has two kids, you can have either of their rooms." One room has a twin bed and a lot of plaid, the other a full bed and a lot of unicorns and a keyboard.

She'll take the unicorns. And another hug.

Hug! "- you're probably a little old to be tucked in -"

She's not sure what that is? Being too old for stuff is kind of dumb, though.

Winona laughs a little. "It's when somebody puts your covers over you."

Oh. Okay?

So Winona tucks her in and pets her hair and leaves her to her nap.

She wanders downstairs again at about one, freshly showered and with her hair touched up a bit.

Julie is in by then. The surviving eggs have been turned into little frittata muffin things with broccoli and bacon in them and there are also scones that Julie and Winona are slathering with butter and blackberry jam. Winona puts two muffin things and a slathered scone on a plate and pushes it in Denice's direction. "Good nap?"

(Nom.) Yeah.

"If you like hiking," says Julie, "here's a good place for it, lots of trails. It's good for skiing in the winter, that's why Irene bought the place, but even in the off-season Colorado's nice for outdoorsy stuff."

She might like hiking. She'll try it, anyway, if they want to.

"I like a hike now and then," says Julie. "Mostly 'cause if I get up a tall enough thing it's great to jump off it but I hear people who can't fly sometimes also like hiking."

"You wanna go after lunch?" Julie asks. "Or tomorrow, it's supposed to be nice tomorrow."

Tomorrow in the afternoon?

"Tomorrow afternoon it is!" says Julie, raising her water glass in a toast.

She knows that one. Toast!

Julie clinks glasses with her and grins.

Lunch!

The frittata muffin things are okay but need salt. The scones are storebought and decent. "Winona says you're the least picky eater she's ever met," says Julie, "so that's handy."

Yeah, that's - food was hard, before? She's maybe going to tell them about it, in a few days or something, she's thinking about it.

"Okay. No rush," Julie says.

Okay.

"Do you have anything you want to do today?" says Winona.
