It was easier, dealing with sorcerers, when all you did was distract Father and find them quick shelter elsewhere. Here, there was little escape from them. No matter what he did, they would remain, and the honest truth was that he bore them very little ill will.

Wasn't his father. He'd seen too much damage caused by it not to be wary, but...

Of course, that made him think of Liir. He wasn't going to let thought of his conduct around him make him cringe.

So he sat. Subdued. Thinking.

"Wise man. If I ever do it again" -- because, face it, he was Romeo and he would -- "it'll be at noon and I'll be as sober as a judge."

"Just...don't marry Angela, again," he said, trying to make his tone teasing even if he kind of meant it.

"I don't think she'd have me," Romeo answered, shaking his head. "Don't worry on that score."
