”What does it look like I’m doing, Gideon?” She responded quietly because she didn’t want to alert anyone inside that she was snooping. ”I swear I heard something in there.” And she wanted to know what or who was behind the door and what they were doing and what the room was used for. ”Only some of the doors are locked and I’m pretty sure this isn’t an office.”

"What do we gain from figuring it out, Nerina?" Gideon asked, propping his forearm up against the doorframe. His voice wasn't unkind, but it did manage to hit that sweet spot between sounding genuinely curious and yet all-knowing. Because if history taught Gideon Emerson anything, it was that he was both.

At least when it came to his childhood companion.
