Appointments post!

Please leave a message and Sophie will get back to you, probably once she's finished with school for the day.

[She sighs heavily. Wally is kind of cool, she guesses, but he's not Norma.]

Yeah....

Why couldn't someone else do it?

Because they needed someone who is really good with languages, and Norma is the best. I'm sure you know that with the way she helps you with Relares, right?

[Fenimore doesn't actually think Norma is the best with languages around, even though it might be almost true for at least the people in Luceti, but she'll pretend she thinks so for the sake of the lie.]

Yeah....

[Norma is really, really smart....]

Just a week?

[Is it always exactly a week? Fenimore hasn't known enough people who died to know for certain. She hedges her bet.]

A few days more than a week at most. I promise. She doesn't want to be gone any longer than she has to.

Okay....

[As long as Fenimore promises, she guesses that's all right.]

And then she's gonna stay.

[Right?]

[Fenimore knows she can't promise it for sure, but with how long it's been since the last draft and how it's not especially common for people to go on consecutive drafts, she thinks she can bet on it.]

And then she's going to stay. She'll want a nice, long rest after that much work.

[And even though she knows that Sophie isn't a big fan of it, she reaches down to ruffle her hair, because little kids sometimes don't get a proper say in what is done to them.]

[Sophie grimaces and bats at Feminore's hand. Why you gotta be this way Fen.

And then, sounding as though she thinks she's being very subtle:] Blowing bubbles doesn't make you really tired, right?

[Fenimore's pretty sure she knows where this is going.]

She's not just blowing bubbles. Her mission is going to make her pretty tired -- like if you had to do homework all day.

[Ugh, gross. Why would Norma actually want to do this?]

But she can blow bubbles when she comes home.
