Visitation

[lvpd_sidle]

The sheriff had brought her the news personally.

Found dead in his holding cell...no inquiry...statements...case closed.

She breathed in as deeply as she comfortably could, and let it out. Relaxing fully against her pillows in the hospital.

Safe. From him at least. And they still won't tell me his name.

Not her problem anymore.

The bruises stood out in sharp contrast against her skin, and all her movement was stiff, ginger. Barring an infection, she would be released in another two days.

She had finished the book Angel sent. She had terrorized the orderlies with the toy Naraht so thoughtfully provided.

She was bored.

"Awww, they're adorable!" Women like kittens. It's a thing. The lethal cute factor.

"Born a couple of days ago. Amanda's adopting two of them when they're weaned so you might get to see them in the flesh."

"I'll look forward to that."

"I'm hoping they won't be too much trouble. The mum seems as bad as Scampi. She apparently steals spoons and tried to give birth in the laundry basket."

She laughs. "Cats are troublemakers by nature. I think it's genetic."

"Hehe, with a father who eats socks and shoelaces as well, who knows."

"Hopefully they won't be the kind to destroy houseplants or fight shadows on the walls."

Re: Guppy

[guppy_sandhu]

"I don't mind him fighting shadows as long as the wall wins."

He grins. "Or at least puts up a better fight than the socks."
