They're super cute. They could pose for greeting cards if only that wouldn't mean holding still and not getting their hands all over each other.

Permalink

Good luck with that. Because that is not happening any time soon.

Permalink
Very.

But. Alas. They can't keep this up for literally ever. They're only human.
Permalink

So eventually they are snoozing on each other. In, mercifully, Aldaras's bed.

Permalink

Yup. Snuggled and exhausted and in love.

Permalink

Annie eventually wakes up, but she doesn't get up right away. She stays snuggled up, thinking.

Permalink

Aldaras is out, she's entirely free to think in peace. And privacy, thanks to the necklace.

Permalink
Yes, that's very nice. She gets up eventually and puts on enough clothes to slip out of the room and look into the breakfast availability situation.

Thinking, thinking.
Permalink

Breakfast is available, in various cookable and non-cookable forms! And Zevaia is not present. She's a smart girl.

Permalink

Annie gets some cereal and goes to eat it in Aldaras's room because he is nice to be near.

Permalink


He stirs soon enough, yawning and blinking blearily. He smiles, when he sees Annie.
Permalink

"Morning," she says, petting his hair.

Permalink

"Mornin', beautiful," he mumbles. A morning person he is not.

Permalink
She eats her cereal. Think, think.

"That guy who told you the - unsettling thing - what's the main effect of his artifact?"
Permalink

"Never learned. Can ask?"

Permalink

"But it hasn't been publicized?"

Permalink

"Nnnot that I know 'f?"

Permalink

"And its side effect involves talking. Do you think we could put out a false rumor about what it does that would make it appealing to the thimble thief and set a trap?"

Permalink




"I love you," he declares. "Let's do that."
Permalink

She beams and kisses him.

Permalink

He kisses her back, clumsy from drowsiness.

Permalink

And she finishes her cereal and puts the bowl aside and flops on him. "Something transportational or maybe stealth-related. And maybe the original owner can be convinced to take the thing home so the thief's not risking an assault on the university again when they're expecting it."

Permalink

"Bet the university," he adds, "will help. S'not like I don't have their number..."
