all i did thgis weekend was watch the backlog of monster factories. i just finished the boy mayor of second life and totinos.

Not a problem at all. I’ve written about this before but there are real and valid threats of malevolence that are long standing (I know you are watching) and I prefer to keep my protections or wards or certain other secret so as not to expose any real or perceived weaknesses.

"There," Blue says. "I think you're all set now."

Noah beams at her. He doesn't actually need the scarf she's wrapped around his neck, but he enjoys and appreciates all the effort she puts into including him in her attentions. The other boys, being more consistently corporeal than he is, get to hug her (Adam), or kiss her (Gansey), and wrestle with her (Ronan), and while he doesn't exactly mind having to stand by and observe seventy percent of the time, he relishes every moment where he is the center of her intent.

Today it's just the two of them and the clear blue sky, the ground littered with orange and red and brown leaves, and a crisp, fresh quality to the air.

"We should leave before the others wake up," he says.

Blue nods and marches down the stairs and past the sitting room where Gansey, Ronan, and Adam are still passed out on the floor. Calla is nursing a mug of tea and watching them sleep with a conniving, considering smile on her face, and she and Blue wave at each other. Noah hurries close behind and takes hold of Blue's hand when she reaches back for him.

When they emerge from 300 Fox Way, they inhale simultaneously. Noah savors the faint impression he gets of the cool burn in Blue's lungs for a moment before he looks at her. Blue jerks her chin in the direction of Cabeswater.

"Think we can make it there before they catch up to us?" she asks.

"Are you Peter Pan now?" Blue asks. She's lying on the floor next to Gansey's model of Henrietta, contemplating rolling a ball down Main Street Indiana Jones-style and watching Noah flit through the air. This isn't normal behavior for him--but then, who knows what constitutes normal behaviors when it comes Noah? Maybe she should be taking notes. Maybe when (if, Maura's and Gansey's voices chorus in her mind) she doesn't get into college, she can take up ghost-hunting. She'd be better at it than most of those hacks on television.

"I don't think I'm supposed to be flying," replies Noah as he continues to do just that. "I just felt like I could. Maybe you're thinking about flying, so I can."

"That sounds an awful lot like something that isn't possible."

"Isn't, or shouldn't?"

Blue contemplates the question. "Shouldn't, I suppose. Can't rule much out these days."

Noah lands and leans over her, a bright smile stretched across his face. Blue responds in kind, a guilty sort of happiness welling up inside her knowing that she gets to have this with Noah, that the other boys don't necessarily get to see new facets of him before she does. She pushes the thought aside and gestures at the town model.

"Think we have time to Temple of Doom it and clean up before the others get home?" she asks as she gets up off the floor.

Noah cocks his head to one side. "Should we wait for Ronan to get back? He might want to join in on the chaos."

"This is going to be a delicate operation, Czerny," Blue says, "minor chaos at the most. I only trust us to get it done right."
