[Phone call to Ogma]

[She waits patiently while it rings.]

That boy is incorrigible. He's been badgering me about having another baby since Christmas.

Well, he's the oldest one. I guess he was taken in with the excitement of all the other kids.

Well and Erato gave him Alexander to hold and he apparently told the baby stories until he fell asleep. Now he wants to be a big brother.

Awww, that's cute.

So, what's this about him wanting to get married?

[She laughs.]
Oh he's fallen in love with Aphrodite's daughter, Ivy. She kissed his cheek under the mistletoe and he kissed her hand.

Isn't he a little young for that?

Oh he knows. He's waiting until he's big enough then he intends to propose to her. It's so adorable.

Where'd he get that idea, I wonder?

His own doing, I promise. He doesn't seem terribly concerned about our marital status. I've explained to him our situation and he's doing fine with it.

Well, more that where'd he even learn about that? There's only one married couple in our number.

He's a bright boy, Alan. He's been learning things by the truck load. I imagine he found it out for himself.

He's a great kid.

So. When's the big moving day? I can help move furniture and boxes.

Well at the rate they're moving, we'll probably be there Monday or Tuesday.

[There is some muffled conversation, paper ruffling. Lilith thanks someone. More paper.]

Ah...Monday. Cian and I have a private flight booked on Monday morning. And a hotel reservation set up through Wednesday, in case the movers are late. This woman is a little crazy. Should I thank her or be frightened?

I'd say both, honestly. But, OK... School starts back up again this week, but once I'm out for the day, I'll be over to help you, all right?

That sounds great. I really can't wait to see you.

Same here. Love you, sweetheart.
