"I think not unusually much? Townhouse, mundane neighbors, wards. But our neighborhood plays host to a terrible lot of little things that can bite and not kill, so we have injuries often and deaths rarely."

"Ah, well lots of injuries and little death is better than more death with fewer injuries."

"Agree! Something bigger got into the house the very instant of induction but it was aimed at me, and may have been confused. Most probably my parents have killed it."

"Hopefully, I'm glad you made it here safely."

"Me too! Not even a mysterious animal bite!"

"That's good."

"Do you live close to Montréal?"

Ribo giggles, "You'd think so wouldn't you but I'm on basically the other end of Canada."

"I learned geography in school but I learned it in Spanish. What is on the other end of Canada in English?"

"Well Canada has ten provinces. Quebec is the one Montréal is in and it's one of the ones on the east coast. I live in Alberta which is not quite on the west coast but it's one province east of the west coast."

"How provincial!"

Ribo giggles again and smiles, "What about you? What makes your part of London special?"

"Has a movie titled it! But I have not seen the movie. Otherwise I don't think it is the most exceptional."

"Neat, what kind of movie?"

"Romantic comedy, I think."

"I hear those can be cute, I haven't really watched a lot of movies to be honest."

"Nor me. We saved them for special occasions and mostly my little siblings picked. Disney Disney Disney!"

"Those are supposed to be well made. They do Pixar too right? Mother and I watched WALL-E together once. She was rather offended by some of the science but agreed it was well made."

"They do! I liked Toy Stories. We were not allowed Monsters Incorporated, did not want to encourage dangerous ideas."

"I don't think I've watched any of those. Would seeing a made up monster make it easier for Mals to get you? I didn't think new ones generated spontaneously like that."

"The monsters are friendly, I understand from the trailers. Not like mals."

"Why didn't your parents want you to watch it then?"

"Did not want a baby sister saying 'kitty!' and trying to make friends if she sees a chimaera."

"Oh, that makes sense. I wonder if there's other movies like that which teach bad lessons for magical children."

"Probably! So many movies about not judging by appearance even if appearance is 'slug'."
