I thought I already told you--I informed him he ought to run for the hills. Nothing he can do will embarrass my family nearly so much as I already have. And as he's not going to break Adele's heart, I really don't mind.

[Vastra lets out a breath she had been holding, composing herself again.]

What you believe he ought to do, and the outcome of it, are two separate things. I don't want anything akin to 'he made the agreement before he could tell the difference between men and women' to be bandied about even in the darkest of holes in Luceti. Am I clear?

[His tone takes on a distinct chill.] I don't control the gossip of others, Vastra. Belaboring your point to someone who is at the very least neutral in this matter serves your cause ill.

[eversohungry]

I'm not concerned with everyone else, I'm concerned with where the origin might lie. [Hint, hint.] You know me well enough Loki that I pay little attention to whatever gossip revolves around my life. But I'll do whatever I can to keep it to a minimum when it concerns my children. You would do the same for someone you loved, wouldn't you?

[complicatedliar]

Tell me, when have I gone after you or yours with words?

[This is starting to really annoy him.]

Though I suppose this is a lovely window into your estimation of my character.

[Alright, point. So Vastra is a little edgy when it comes to her children and it probably got the best of her this time.]

No, I apologize Loki. It's true, you never have, I'm being too overprotective. [She sighs heavily again.] It's been a hard day regarding both of my children, I'm a little on edge I suppose.

[He feels somewhat mollified.]

Just keep in mind who your allies truly are, Vastra.

They will come through it.

The day you discover your own child was making plans to leave home suddenly and unannounced is a terrible day for considering who one's allies are. [She sighs, but the point is taken.]

I can only hope so. They're adults now, I can't fix everything for them the way I used to when they were barely walking.

Re: [Lucetiville Event] August 3/4

[complicatedliar]

I can't imagine how that feels. Not the best circumstances for well considered action.

They have to fix their own cock ups now, I'm afraid. But we shall make certain it isn't to messy, Hm?
