Drinks were nice, conversation was pleasant and productive as plans for childling patrols are arranged

Mitra catches her up on some matters here and there, and a few Anecdotes "So the idiot tried to 'steal' a feather from Abuela while she slept. She was NOT asleep. Took us three hours to get the piskie down from that roof top"

"I'm surprised you got him down that quickly."

"Well, Piskies, they can't help 'borrow' but feathers off someone IS a bit much. I confess" She sips "We weren't particularly gentle about retrieving him. Nothing abusive, but not gentle"

"Don't blame you. Also, it will probably deter others."

"A point did need to be made " She nods "The pooka would see it as a green light "

A sip "Hardest part was not laughing as he yelled for help. I'm not a nice person some times"

Jess chuckles a little. "I think you can be forgiven."

A smile "Thank you. Oh, the town meetings are going well, at least in my area. I knew you'd like that. The commoners are no fools, and they've social networked it. Did you know there's child care program being arranged? For Kinain and kithain mothers"

That makes her smile. "Really? Let me know if I can support it, or help grow it."

"I have a copy of the meeting notes, I'll send them to you. It's just in my 'neighborhood' but growing it might be ideal."

"Thanks, it's a good idea."

"I really had my doubts about these town meetings, but they're so easy to spy on that I can't, as an Eiluned, complain" MIGHT be joking

A soft chuckle.

"They do seem to be a good vent at the least, and a source if good ideas on better nights." She takes a drink "Oh, thank you for having Coy deliver Constance's copies of goings on. Keeps the Pitt in the loop"

"Mm. For as long as they can." a bit glumly.

That gets a confused look "Is there some reason you're going to stop reports?"

"No." she sighs "Coy's heading back to the DeBuke farm and Constance is going with him."

The Eiluned definitely looks surprised, then says "Jessica, Coy was saying that as smart as Constance was, and good at her job, she'd have their family records copied in a few weeks tops and that they'd probably be back by New Years"

"I mean, that's what he told Shard at the Pitt"

Jess shakes her head. "Up to them."

"I suppose it is, but you might want to verify this. Forgive me, trolls have ways of communicating I don't always get, but ANYONE can have a slip up in such"

"I'll ask, but my impression was that she wasn't planning to come back." evenly.

"I hope that's not the case, " A sigh "She's GOOD"

"Yeah." Jess clearly things it -is- the case, and regrets it.

"Mm you're allowed to sweeten the deal and ask them to stay even if that IS their plan, you know that right?"
