"Ha, well, the baroness may yet refuse but you have 3 nights at least

"Well, Aunt Ambrose might starve in three nights... "

"But mayyyyybe a nap..."

"Aunt Ambrose? Mm I don't know how seriously to take you, but would you like a second meal to go prepared when you leave to take to her if you're visiting someone?"

Leonora wiggles her toes, then says "Heck, I'll buy her a pizza and have it delivered if she wants"

"Cut up into wee bites? She doesn't have your own teeth, you know. She lost them in a bar fight, and now has a set made from mother-of-pearl..."

"Mm well, I'll do my best and hope I got it right" Delores nods, then looks to Leonora "You well enough to patrol again?"

"Once I get a new set of pants, yes." Leonora says

"You could set a new fashion trend." Helpful pooka!

"Good, go get them, and you've got grave yard shift tonight. It's not just Dame Claire you scared. And we would have been down a knight..mph!"

The SIdhe's mouth falls open, then "Fine, Yes Steward . "

"A knightless night!" Her tail gently curls and she grins, pleased.

Leonora does smile at that "Knightless nights can be lonely" wistful, "It was nice meeting you, Emmaline. Thanks again."

"Aw. Ce n'est rien."

"Mmm a regular healer, guess that means we won't have to call in," Dame Claire nods approvingly

"yes, my cookies only do so much. Now, Emmaline, let me show you your room. If you like it and all goes well you can move into it regular, though we do have others. Don't worry, you'll feel the balefire from there"

The last from the steward

"Oh, but then you could have had a special bat-phone... a possum-signal?"

"M'not sleepy..." A yawn as she follows the bogganess.

"This is a Fiona hold, it puts out LOTS of signals" Claire says deadpan. //"Oh sure, House baiting, mean" Leonora says

As for our mighty pooka, spy, duchess, and champion of the fashion attacked- she is lead to a room with rich wood paneling and a lush (but not too shag) carpet with a queen sized feather bed.

"Why, there must be a thousand geese between me and the pea!" FLUMP on the bed.

There is also a nice window with a view of the garden outside!

"Sleep well, Miss Emmaline" And the door closes

A happy sigh. "Merci, Miss Delores."

mmm downy goodness...zzzzzzz
