"I'm sure you'd do a better job than him..."

"Not now!" he said, almost roughly, turning from her. "I know for a fact that I'm going to be investigated..."

"I see."
*She turned away*
"Well, there are clean clothes in the bedroom. I'll get back to work."
Planning on cozying up to that Elven tart?

*Haldir came into the kitchen with a worried look on his face. He had been keeping watch in the forest, and felt that something was terribly wrong at home. But he was also hungry.*
"Mrs. Lovett, is there any food left from dinner? I had to work late again..."

"Haldir!" Steerpike shouted suddenly, running over to him. "Thank God you're here! The King and Queen- they're- they're-"

"Steerpike! What happened?"

"It was an accident," he choked, "I swear it was an accident-"
He burst into tears and grabbed Mrs Lovett like a child seeking a hug.

*Haldirs face turned white, and he felt the strongest pain he had ever felt in his life.*
"What?" *He whispered* "But they can't be.... I saw her just yesterday...."
*His eyes filled with tears and he sat down at the closest chair....*
"I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye....."

"Shh, you'll be alright. Tell us what happened."
