Oh crap . He's going to have to make conversation

shadylady 4:32pm

"I worked in the kennels and mews."

earldebuke 4:35pm

"Anything new?"

shadylady 4:39pm

He thinks about that. "The red-tail is ready to start training on different prey, Sir Sergei says."

shadylady 4:39pm

"So we're using different lures to start with."

earldebuke 4:39pm

"lovely, Kansas likes you" His mom says

shadylady 4:45pm

earldebuke 4:46pm

"Lovely animals all. Also.. Sir Sergei seemed excited about something" A look to Adam "I don't remember it all"

shadylady 4:47pm

"He got an invitation to somewhere; I don't know, really. I guess they have Fae hounds there, too."

earldebuke 4:49pm

"Siverwolf Barony" His mother says

shadylady 4:52pm

earldebuke 4:57pm

"Ahem" The sidhe says "Guidelines"

shadylady 4:58pm

"What?" Adam blinks. "I don't know where the invite is from, so I can't agree or disagree or anything."

shadylady 5:02pm

"Ok, so... so, then, I don't know if it's Silverwolf or not. I mean, that would make sense but it could be anywhere that has Fae Hounds."

shadylady 5:08pm

He puts food in his mouth; if he can't talk......

earldebuke 5:09pm

"Do you know what Silverwolf IS?"

shadylady 5:10pm

He nods, chewing; he knows, or thinks he does.

earldebuke 5:11pm

"An Ailil Barony,I believe you mighth ave a chance to see it" Granddame Bondraste says

shadylady 5:12pm

He swallows. "I have."

earldebuke 5:12pm

"I believe Sir Sergei might bring you along if you want" The Fiona adds

earldebuke 5:13pm

"Aren't Ailil.. well, I know Dame Claire seems solid but even she says her House is to be treated with caution" a frown

earldebuke 5:13pm

that from his mother

shadylady 5:14pm

"If, uh, if Sir thinks I could help, I'll go but... I don't know if I need to visit again just for myself."

earldebuke 5:15pm

"I didn't know you'd been there before" His mother seems surprised "Did I forget something?"

shadylady 5:16pm

A shrug. "Not sure I told you."

earldebuke 5:17pm

"Oh a story" Bondraste smiles

shadylady 5:19pm

He gives her a faintly pained look and relates the story of being tricked by Connor in as short a way as he can.

earldebuke 5:20pm

"Oh Adam, I'm so sorry" his mother says sympathetically

earldebuke 5:20pm

"Why that little rascal" Bondraste observes

shadylady 5:20pm

"He's just a kid."

earldebuke 5:21pm

"Yes and you handled it very well, didn't he, Darcy?"

earldebuke 5:21pm

"I should say"Darcy agrees

earldebuke 5:21pm

He gets the largest slice of dessert for his reward, a belated reward to be sure.

earldebuke 5:22pm

But better than that? they take over the conversation so he can eat without having tohink how to follow all those guidelines

shadylady 5:23pm

Plus, he's still growing and needs that extra energy.

earldebuke 5:24pm

And this is REALLY GOOD
