(sounds of coughing in the hallway)
Wendy: Hmm, who's that?


Wendy: How are you? Where are you going? Are you supposed to be up and around? They said...

Wendy: Uh, "woozy" and "huge flight of stairs" don't seem like they'd go so well together. Can I give you a lift to the lower floor, madame?

Wendy: Uh... Emi. They're on your head, sweetie.

Wendy: Let me take you down stairs and we'll get you some tea, okay?
Emi: Okay.

Wendy: (snort) Well, now that you're all better YOU can vacuum.
Emi: Yeah. (laughing)
(Wendy and Emi head downstairs, but Emi wants to walk to the kitchen herself because she's stubborn like that.)

Wendy: Yeah, we moved it over about a week or so ago I guess.
Emi: I've been reading about it on your dad's blog, but I didn't know it was over here.
Wendy: Well, I put an entry about it being here on my Livejournal.
Emi: You have a Livejournal now? What, you didn't have enough blogs to not update already?
Wendy: (harumph)

Wendy: Well, I'm glad you're better now, Emi. I wish I could've come visit you.

Wendy: But you had your laptop, you said you read Dad's blog?
Emi: Yeah, Thorne finally hired the Baha kitties to swipe my laptop from my desk and sneak it in to me.
Wendy: Why wouldn't they let you have your laptop? Wait... if Zane wasn't the one keeping people from visiting you, or keeping your laptop away, who was? (timer dings) Tea's ready. Shall we move over to the couch? By the window, of course. (smile)
Emi: (smile) Sounds lovely.

Emi: The Wizards. Those four elemental wizards.
Wendy: I had no idea they were involved in your care at all! I thought they were tending to Lady Sey.
Emi: Yeah, that's going well. I read YOUR blog too, and she ran away because she was sick of them. I can't blame her. They're control freaks, and we need to watch them.
Wendy: I think they're here to help, though. Don't you? I mean...
Emi: I did some research into them, on the web, of course. And it turns out all four of them were thrown out of their last kingdom where they served as Wizards to the Court. Something about them being considered "a threat to the authority of the throne" but I couldn't find more detail than that.
Wendy: Wow, that's not good. That's not good at all. I wonder what they did? Well, we'll just have to ask them.

Wendy: Meh, I'm much more direct about things. They're kind of busy right now with trying to arrange throw Rook out after he's all healed up, but...

Wendy: Well, they said that Rook might be a threat to Sey, so they were going to....
Emi: Darn it. I spilled my tea. They can NOT throw Rook out! Respectfully, Wendy, what are you THINKING letting them do such a thing?!?
Wendy: Uh, well it made sense when they said it.


Wendy: I don't know. Maybe not.
Emi: Well, I'll bet he doesn't know. He would never stand for such a thing. And I'd wager he'll have a few words for them when he DOES find out!
