A little wave as they go?

Frank nods as they leave.

"She's a good choice." Frank frowns, pondering. "Maybe not the best. Hm. I don't know if I know any Sidhe kinain."

"Maybe not.. not many sidhe here."

"But Sallie May knows lots about being kinain. More than I do."

"Yes. Tell you what, I want to talk to her first, ok, but after that, you get them together."

"Sounds good!"

Another small smile from the Mountain. "You're doing a great job, Dagmar. I am personally grateful to you in this."

Blush.

"I'm trying."

"You're doing great." gently encouraging.

"Thanks." Quiet smile. "Thank you for trusting me, even if.. well. Thanks."

"If what?"

"If I'm not that.. experienced?"

"I usually feel like the new guy. Nadeen's not sained yet, but she knows fae stuff better..."

"But you'll notice the Chieftess didn't ask -her- to mentor Adam."

"Well, no."

Frank nods.

"Dagmar, from what you've seen.... does it seem to you that Adam has Sidhe blood?"

She considers. "That or satyr, maybe?"

"He's charming.. and.. um... not.. not bad looking.." Blush.

"But he's also BIG with emotions, like Zane. Big emotions, and quick to change moods?"

Frank nods. "Have you noticed anything else like that about him? Other.... hints, that might help?"

Her brow furrows. "Well, pretty sure he's not troll kin."

"I haven't met his parents yet. OH. His bio-dad, that's a non-entity.. so.. don't eshu wander?"

"They do."

"And eshu, you said, can be risk-takers..."

"Well, he's pretty game for trying new stuff."

"So maybe satyr.... or eshu.... but with Sidhe charisma?"

She nods.

"Do.. with a sidhe, do you think house influences?"

Reluctantly. "I have to wonder."

"Then.. well.. Fiona are fearless, right? And... Gwydion, well..." Shrug. "Can be touchy."

His lips quirk. "Can they?"

"I'm working on it. But yes?"

"Yes."

"So, I mean... that could be satyr or eshu or... I dunno. But he gets riled when he feels insulted, for sure."

"He'll calm down, though."

Frank rubs the base of his horns. "Good insights, Dagmar."

"Sorry I don't have a better idea what kind of kin he is."

"No, Dagmar, not your job to know it for certain. How and where our blood skips around is... well, part of the Dreaming. And Da'an."

"....He's not gonna be hijacked, is he?"

"I don't believe so."

"I... I know Nadeen is... I don't want anything bad to happen to her.. but.. Tanya.."

Frank nods.

"I don't want to see that happen to somebody I know. Not again."

Frank nods. "I know."

"Dagmar....." Slowly.

"Yeah?"
