This year, May 16-18 will bring “Rivalry Weekend” across MLB, with 11 of the 15 series being matchups between prime Interleague rivals. That includes Mets-Yankees, featuring Soto's return to the Bronx. Also on the list are Angels-Dodgers, White Sox-Cubs and Cardinals-Royals, among others. The four non-Interleague matchups -- including Pirates-Phillies and Astros-Rangers -- also will have a regional flavor. So, Naturally, when Tziporah found out Ivory had tickets, she began to pester him.. he's KIND Of a brother. "Come on, Ivory, Zara's a MUCH bigger baseball fan than you. Go watch the Astros-Rangers. I will trade you!" She waves the Astro-Rangers tickets at him.

"Texas sounds like a banishment, " Sir Ivory of the paler clan says "What, you barely talk to me, but now that I have something you want?"

"You're SO Quiet! I thought you didn't want to.. you're now my favorite brother like figure" Tziporah assures, "Well, besides Jacob, can't put you up over jacob, it'll break his petty little heart. And Zara LOVES her team"

"She loves the yankees?" He asks "WOW."

"Oh you did not just say that," Tziporah gawks at him.

"Well, Jacob is a Yankees fan, he needs someone on his side." Ivory adds.

"Be at his side at his house, watching the game with his mama on TV he'll appreciate that. AND you won't need the tickets." She says.

Ivory looks amused "Do you give Vashti this much trouble?"

"Only when she's hoarding Mets game tickets!" Tziporah says.

Ivory looks curious "I was unaware five tickets constituted a 'hoard'"

"You've got FIVE?" Tziporah says in shock only to realize the sidhe is walking on without her. She hurries to catch up "FIVE?"

"Comes after four, before six: Five," He nods "It's an odd number."

"YOu are rapidly becoming my LEAST Favorite brother figure," Tziporah warns him "That's bad luck!"

"I've had worse luck before. I'll chance it." Ivory tells her.

"You don't even KNOW five people" SHe says "I bet."

He stops "I don't know... I'm reclusive, I'm not DEAD."

"yet," The Eshu mutters in a whisper that would probably make Zara smirk at the dark humor of it.

"Look, who were you going with? If I can talk THEM into giving up their claim on a seat... will you give the tickets to me to give to Zara?" She follows.

"Hmm tempted to let you just chase after some random names and pester them to death but I don't know who I hate that much" He says still walking.

"Oh you are heading for a Rue-age, sir." She shakes her fist.

"A wwhat?" He stops again "Ru uhg?"

"Rue-Age... you will RUE, Sir. the day the week, much Rue!" She warns!

"AH, Rue-age," He nods "Again, I'll chance it. "

Sluagh in the hold wince and weave around, why is Tziporah SO LOUD when she's in these moods?

And they know it has just begun, Eshu stay on the quest!

Whispers that sound similar to the tune of 'poor professor higgins' from My fair lady, but with IVory's name inserted, might be muttered in the halls.
