"Okay. How much do we want to tell him, if he's asking questions anyway should I just show up in all my alien glory carrying you and Ladah or something?"

"No, if the government gets mad and starts throwing treason charges around it's better if they demonstrably had no idea what was going on."

Hey Makel you're babysitting Ladah. Indefinitely. Also buy up some of the poles. As a wedding present, maybe?

      Telkam are you okay

       are you high

       I'll come pick him up

Thanks.

"What're you writing?"

He reads the messages out loud. "I'm insulted, I'd never be intoxicated around Ladah."

Permalink

"Wedding present? Are you getting married?"

Permalink

"No he is. To his girlfriend. Of the hair I mentioned a little while ago, though it's not that color anymore. It's a life-or-death secret so do treat it as one, but - he'll get why I want the poles."

Permalink

"Ah, gotcha. Anyway, should we hide or just have you mess with our hair if he's coming here?"

Permalink

Now they're both green. "You came so our kids could play together, obviously. - the language might be a problem. You can be very shy."

Permalink

Ruby obligingly turns her hair green also.

"I'm not sure I can do shy," Edie admits.

"Well, 'foreign' won't fly, Makel doesn't know that many languages but he knows what they all sound like."

Permalink

"What about 'mute'?"

Permalink

"Sure. I even have a bit of sign language, from the war."

Permalink

"Ooh, show me? I know sign language but yours'll be different from mine."

Permalink

He will teach her Anitami military sign until Makel shows up!

Permalink

This is definitely enough time that Makel won't wonder what the heck crazy foreign hand-flapping she's doing when she has to fake the gaps in her vocabulary!

Permalink

Makel arrives! His hair is a lighter green, bright and attention-grabbing, and he looks confusedly around.

Permalink

"Playdate for Ladah. This is Etie and this is Emilie."

Permalink

She smiles and waves.

Permalink

"That was a scary message."

Permalink

"It's urgent. Take care of Ladah. I love you."

Permalink

 

 

" - hey, Ladah, want to come play with Katin?"

Permalink

"Okay."

Permalink

Confused Makel frowns worriedly and then spirits Ladah off.
