*He nodded.*
"I'd guessed as much. I've known him for longer than the girl's been alive- he would have mentioned something."
*He smiled kindly.*
"Please, don't worry. Your daughter is perfectly welcome here."

*She looked around and shrugged.*
"It's certainly big. The grounds are really pretty," *she said, with a hint of actual enthusiasm. Since the incident in the inn, she'd been doing her best to give Norrington a chance.*

"I used to live in a big place like this" he said almost saldly "it was always so lonely."

"I wouldn't mind it, I think."

"Yes, but a place like this-" he looked over at Megan and smiled "can make you feel all alone, even if there are people around you." His face was beaming although his words were sad.
"Do you think- do you think your momma would like a place like this?"

"Hrm" he flicked at a flower "would you like a place like this? I mean if you don't decide to stay with us, I mean to visit?" He sounded almost pathetic.

*She offered a smile.*
"I would, yes. It's so different from the house on the lake- what I'm used to. But not in a bad way."

*She smiled slightly.*
"Well, maybe it doesn't have to be quite this big..."
((Dude, next time you talk to Megan, ask her about the Epic plot we came up with for Pina at Manderly.))

*Micaela turned to Maxim.* "I'm going to go make sure Frith knows. Frith will be serving the meal... don't worry, we can trust him." *She assured Megan. She strode off to go do so (Frith was perfectly fine with it) and returned to Pina and James.*
"How do you like Manderley so far?" *She asked Pina once she was standing near them again.*

"Please, call me Micaela."
*She motioned for them to follow her to he drawing room.*
"Come on, we have a while before dinner." *She sat down and motioned to the surrounding chairs.*
