Of course. And he tries not to pry, and knows somethings he's just got to trust her on. He sometimes reads the paper, finds a story about some one stealing a rare book, and goes.. 'mmm.... naaah... maybe? not my biz' and flips to the next story.

ohhhh

nope

Zara steals pens

Paperweights

Name plates

And hearts. 💙

hee!

Well, she's pretty taken herself

Much to Hirim's occasional grumbling, but so far Earl hasn't died by fanged sofa so good

yup!

Ohhhh, Hirim got Z riled up

Oh?

kvetching about Earl

Ooo. 🙂 I am curious

I am sleepy, so details are fuzzy

NP G

implied heavily that Z was being foolish

shouldn't be dating

partially Hirim's opinion that she's still an 8 year old with pink earmuffs

Earl tries to be understanding of hirim. The guy's protective enough to turn blue

yup

And Zara protects him

They clash a lot, but he's her favorite

You can fight with family, but they're still family.

Yeah. Clem is used to the fighting being betwee cousins and siblings while the elders keep an eye out ready to step in. the elders don't scrap, they get more stone faced then slip into a lecture mode 🙂

Hirim scraps

but he and Z are BOTH stubborn SoBs

Yes. And , forgive me, but she seems to enjoy winning arguments G

yup!

...why does Earl like her again?

Started out because she believed in his art, and even fought a bit for it when he was ready to give up. Foolish boy, made him think he was worth something and his troubadour side gained more oomph, and he decided he liked himself when he was with her and got selfish.

ha

Earl does modify her - she's gotten more open, it bits and spurts

A year or more ago Earl wasn't in danger of going unseelie, or bedlam, he was in danger of being undone. Zara helped him rekindle himself

And she SO took him unseelie

...oops

She did. Temptress

Agnes sometimes raises a brow and talks to Emmit "Don't suppose you could talk to your pupil and tell her there are many fine hobbies that don't involve getting our wilders to go all unseelie and difficult?"

STILL want Frank to warn Emmit about that dangerous sloo Earl's mixed up with

Heh. Yeah, that'll be fun "yeah, I know, why do you think I'm teaching her?"

I know!

Frank has rather unfairly attached her to Jeremy

Oh dear. Well, I still think RV needs a sluagh local. One very lazy "Did something interesting actually happen? crap, now I have to snoop"

Tomas is too young. Also, not enough bugs in that cold area.

Tomas does like naps

he's like a greyhound

yes, scares the boggans when he's found in the cupboards
