*Julian lifted his chin proudly, as if to show off his exquisite profile.*
"Well I do try ever so hard to please you, princess."
*He turned back to face her with a mischievous grin.*
"So to what shall we then? The choice is yours, for this place is foreign to me."

((Mmmhm. Very exquisite.))
"Well... I don't know about this place outside of the house and the grounds. D'you want to take a walk outside and catch up?"
*She grinned.*
"Maybe you could find an opportunity to show off some magic."

"Perhaps..."
*He smiled wryly and glanced to the window.*
"Perhaps this way would be safer?"
((Where to?))

((I'll find us a thread.))
"Sure."
*She went to the window and opened it, peering out.*
"There's a trellis thing out here," *she said, clambering out. Very carefully, she swung herself onto the structure and deftly climbed down.*

*Julian met her at the bottom, manifesting silently beside her with a coy smile.*
"You climb faster than you used to. Gotten much practice then?"
((I'm so there.))

**IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT ONE NIGHT**
*Micaela couldn't sleep. Whether nerves about throwing a wedding here (which was odd, because she wasn't even the one getting married), nerves about the baby (her stomach was just beginning to show and there was the as-yet-unresolved issue of that to do), or just plain energy, she didn't know, but she had gotten a sudden craving for hot chocolate and toffee, so she'd gone down the the kitchens and made some. She'd overestimated and realized she'd made too much... then, from the kitchen window, she'd spotted Pina's light on. She'd poured two steaming mugs and brought a bowl of toffee bits.*
*She knocked on the door.*
"Pina? You awake?"

*Sitting crosslegged on her bed with a book, Pina looked up with a start and scrambled to get her veil on.*
"Er, yeah, just a sec!"
*Her veil securely on her head now, she looked to the door more curiously now. What would the lady of the house want from her at this hour.*
"Come in."

*She poked her head in.*
"Want some hot chocolate? I couldn't sleep and I made too much."

"Oh, er, alright."
*That was it? She smiled.*
"Thank you!"

*She smiled back.*
"And toffee." *She held up the bowl.* "I was going to bother Maxim but he's sleeping and I saw your light on. And then I realized that we haven't actually talked in a long time."

"Oh, alright," *she said slightly awkwardly and got up off the bed to sit in one of two comfy chairs in the room. Drawing her legs up underneath her she motioned to the other chair.*
"What d'you want to talk about?"

"Well your mom is getting married. You have to have some opinion on that."
*She sat in the other chair and tucked her bare feet under her nightgown, placing her hands on her lower abdomen.*

*She shrugged.*
"It's good, I guess. I mean, I like James."

"Have you met many of the guests yet? Well, the wedding party, anyway. They're staying here."

"I've met one, yes," *she said with a nod and a private smile.*
