You’re not sure you could do this without Snowman.

Not only do you have to return home, to Prospit, to the Royal Palace, you have to do so to tell your cousin, The Queen, that she is wrong.

It’s nerve-wracking, to say the least, and as you run your fingers through your hair, looking yourself over in the mirror, you can feel your heart beating quickly in your chest. 

You place your hands on either side of the sink, sighing and hanging your head.

@universalcaptain

You’d known Snowman long enough to know that she was probably going to come over to chew you out. 

To be fair, you probably deserve it. Rather than go to the police to let them take care of the whole hostage situation with Scout and Gunslinger, you took Scofflaw and took care of the situation yourself. Not exactly protocol.

You sigh, and prune a few buds off of your Basil plant, misting it with some water before moving on to some of the other herbs you had scattered about your townhouse in small pots and planters of various colors. You mist them down if they need it, remove any dead or dying leaves, prune any excess growth. There wasn’t much to do. You had doctor’s orders to take it easy, so here you are, in a sweater with rolled up sleeves and light wash jeans, caring for your plants.

...Well. You could...Perhaps you could go out and get things for Demo to find when he gets back? I know he'd like to get something from you, again.

I think that would require money.

May I kiss your husband, ma’am?

You’ve gotten their ages mixed up with mine, Clover dear.
