"Ich mag Ihr Haar, Schwester." *He said, almost shyly, petting it.*
((I like your hair, sister.))

*Thenardier was a name he certainly recognized--as Eponine's.*
"Örülök a szerencsének, Aimee. I am der Tod. I would shake your hand, but..."
*He nodded at the baby in her arms*

*She smiled a little, averting her gaze then putting it back on him again. Not in a coy way, in an awkward, embarrassed way.*
"So you're his... er... dad?"

*For a split second, he only stared at her. Then he starting chuckling*
"Oh, no--that is the other der Tod. I am only babysitting."

*Her mouth went a bit slack.*
"There are two of you? Dieu au ciel, what en infer else isn't Maman telling me?" *She said, mostly to herself.* "Sorry for the misunderstanding. It's not exactly normal for someone to meet the anthropomorphic personification of Death, let alone to find out that there are two of them."
*She turned to Alexei, speaking in baby-voice.* "What else isn't Maman telling me, mon petit frere?"

"It is no worry. Your mutter and Renn did not know there were two, either, until recently. I am surprised that for as long as I have been here, that I haven't met you before."

"... and how long have you been here? I haven't been around in a while--Mother and I had a slight... falling out."

*She thought for a moment.*
"Well then, I think I just missed you by coincidence. We started speaking in at least September and stopped speaking right after Alexei."

"That is coincidence. I have been, in the main, in and out of here on a regular basis. We must have just missed each other several times."

"Yeah." *She said noncommittally. She murmured in French to the baby, who burbled back in German and Hungarian, but they seemed to understand eachother on some wavelength.*

((Oy...way to leave a big blank nothing for me to work from )) *They sat awkwardly, Tod not really knowing what to say to Aimee.* "So...have you been able to speak to anyone else? Renn?"

"Only a little. Mostly Hallie, actually. I kind of assume you're here for Renn?" *She said, showing the first signs of advanced frontal cortex use that night.*

"If you mean I live with her, then yes."
*He eyed her curiously*
"Do you any other siblings, besides Alexei?"

"Not that I, er, know of. Well, not by my mom. There's Fitz and Annette of course, by Shira, and Clara by Hallie. My dad... well, I never knew him, but evidently he got around."
