*********

Zara and August are preparing to go to Canada. August has still not 'seen' Zara, not since Vashti's gift, and does not know about it.

Zara finds that while she can woo Earl in the dark, he still gets skittish over 'floozie form' , he apologizes and helps her pack "So am I teleporting you into Canada? or hanging back as your escape?"

"Nay, August, tis a long story, and it involves my sister, and we will be fine..." Says the buxom bogganess. In yellow.

"Not the form I wouldst choose, but it would also insult her so were I to abandon it cavalierly..."

Yes, August hears Zara's whisper , but it is coming from a Buxom boggan woman in yellow.

As zara talks, a 'ping' on her smart phone that likely only she can hear

EYebrow, and a check.

TXT: Carriage stopped two counties up from us. Took awhile but we got it. Newblood safe and adorable

Clem is not above using the word adorable (For this IS from Clem) but it isn't typical of her either

Then, where she would normally ASK Zara if she wanted a picture, or wait for a a request for further information... Clem springs a picture on her. The Chysliad's Fae form can't be taken a picture of, not by mortal camera, but the child appears well

TXT: Mazel tov

Whiile Clem talks more than say Brekke, but less than say, Siv, the text that follows after is positively untrollilsh

TXT: Her name is Chasya, or something like that. She's four and a half and she's ..well, I'm into guarding corn, you're into haunting book shelves, she's into rocks and dirt. SHe's chatty but I sometimes can't make out what she's saying, though she's loud and proud she is. Can you believe anyone would hurt this precious angel?

Zara knows that Chaysya, or Chasye, are both Yiddish, variants on the word 'Shelter'. Perhaps the Mazel Tov was more fitting than she suspected

TXT: Chaysya, or Chasye. She's probably a MoT, name like that.

TXT: Mot?

TXT: Member of the Tribe ✡️

A lot of bubbles, that rotate, withdraw, retract...

then TXT: Well, she's with our tribe now and no one will hurt or take her

TXT: Tante Zara can help

For a bit, there aren't even bubbles.

Then...

TXT: Sweet Corn on a biscuit, Zara, I'm keeping this girl for me and buck, aren't I? I mean... not just at the farm? but .. for our own?

TXT: Mazel Tov. 🎉

TXT: 🙂 Thanks I .. I am going to talk to Buck and make sure. It'll rip me up if he says no, but he adores her too so I don't think he will.

TXT: DO wish he'd slow down while giving her 'horsey back rides' though. She could get hurt

TXT: Sorry, I know you're busy. At first this just started as news on carriages and it's obviously escalated. Let us know if you need Farm help. Until then, Fortune Favor you. I should talk to Buck

TXT: You should. You will be good at this, Clem

TXT: HUGS needed to hear that. Thanks 'tante' Zara 👋

and the texts , which were pretty rapid fire are done, leaving her with August

August still looks thunderstruck, but he's trying to cover it.
