Nothing ever happens to Zeno, don't worry, don't worry!

[Nothing permanent, anyway. Might as well be the same thing.]

But if miss would do Zeno the favor of not provoking strangers...

[Though even he hates asking it. He'd be lying if he said he hadn't enjoyed reading her responses. She'd grown up so much from the little girl who lived in the palace. But it was his job to protect her, not the other way around.]

[darkestbefore]

[ That is not at all the same thing, Zeno. ]

I wasn't trying to provoke anyone. [ Although now that she's thinking about it more, she feels even more agitated about the conversation and the unsettling questions. ] He was the one trying to provoke strangers.

[ Alas. She was definitely feeling provoked right now! ]

[eternalshield]

And look, it worked! Don't give him the satisfaction next time.

[darkestbefore]

[ She huffs out a breath at that, because on one hand, he was right. On the other... ]

I'll try. But I'm not making any promises, either. If this person tries to hurt you, or anyone else, for that matter... Please be careful?

[eternalshield]

[Of course you aren't...]

Zeno isn't hurt. Would like to know no one else will be.

[darkestbefore]

So would I. If you learn anything more about this person, please let me know? Do you think we should warn the others?

[eternalshield]

Zeno doesn't know yet. Give it a few days to settle and Zeno will decide from there.

[darkestbefore]

Alright, if you think that's best. Please let me know if anything else happens?

[eternalshield]

Of course, of course!

Try not to worry, all right? You'll break Zeno's heart.
