Cope spotted Denton on a bed nearby, and he raised his hand in greeting. The boy was welcome to join and help if he wanted, but something in Denton's posture indicated he might want to be alone.
"They'll pull me out of school." Celandine answered, "Homeschooling. So that I learn properly without distractions." Cela started to spread the dung out with her little trowel, turning it over with the soil and mixing it in a bit.
She waved one gloved hand over at Dom-in-ick too then went back to dung spreading.
