Later that day, Renée receives an email from Tobias, asking after Charlie's health and musing about another dinner together or something.

Oh well. That's a shame. He hopes they're all well, and that they'll enjoy Easter with the peace of the Lord.

Renée doesn't answer that one because after the chocolate eggs she is planning on attending a spring equinox ritual with her neopagan friends and she doesn't want to start a correspondence here.

And Sadde will, shortly after, receive an email himself:

I do hope you'll be well-behaved while with your dom's family. We'll be expecting you home for summer break, and you'll tell us all about your time.

Love,
Dad

From:

mrmage

"An angel of the submissive female persuasion."

From:

"One of those, sure."

Sigh. "Well. All in all, one of the better possible outcomes."

Isabella squeezes him. "I'm so sorry you have to live with this, pet. I wish I could do something about it."

From:

"At the risk of sounding cheesy, you are."

From:

eclipsi

"Something more substantive than existing."

From:

mrmage

"I don't mean just existing. Although, well, yeah, that, too. But... you know, this is easier to deal with, with you."

From:

eclipsi

"If you say so, lovely."

From:

mrmage

"It is," he insists. "You're the best."

She kisses the top of his head.

He sighs. "I have to- it sounds maybe childish or something, but I have to stay positive. If I can't fix it, then I can't, and like you said, it's only until I turn eighteen."
