Cela marked a spot on the island with an X marked out of ketchup and tipped her head to one side.
"You could hire people." she suggested. "Nannies and tutors and stuff. Just temporarily. How old are your sisters?"
See, the thing about saying something like that was that he was now curious. And with Kellen, curiosity often ended in him doing the very thing that people advised against. Hmm. Might work, if he put some charms on the chute before takeoff... "Eight, six, and five. Just little." Kellen planted an albino tree (steamed cauliflower) and looked around at the other food near him for inspiration, "They already have a nanny, and a kind-of tutor... I guess I'm most worried about what Katarina... the six-year-old... will act like once Hateya's come to Hogwarts. It's a real mess."
He propped his chin on his hand, and looked at her out of the corner of his eye with a smirk, "Hey, you said you wanted kids. Can I foist Katarina onto you?" Text Cut: Miles and Cela Quote:

"Don't let any of them catch on fire. Promise?" Cela meant so much more with that request. It was of course a reference to Lafay, but in general she hoped Miles would welcome the newest firsties and look out for the other little ones, especially the Ravenclaws, once she was gone.
Watching the exchange between the two, Kellen felt one of his eyebrows raise. Don't let any of them catch on fire? Was that a reference to the fall, the same thing Sabel had gone knight-crusader on? |
