Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine. (Which means I should probably behave myself since anything I say or do could be taken as canon.) Indulge the lot of us, especially the one with sass tendencies.

Catching Up on Paperwork
Jacques waited until full dark before knocking smartly.
“It’s open.” Sinder sat amidst scattered files, scanning something on his phone.
“What are you reading?”
“Reports.”
“What for?” It was a lot of paperwork.
“So I’ll know what they say.” Sinder tempered his sass with a smile. “I do this every night.”
“Sounds dull.”
He shrugged. “It’s my job. And after a few days of radio silence, I’m behind.”
“Will it take long?” Jacques was nervous and excited about his plans. Maybe that carried through.
Tossing aside his phone, Sinder said, “Nah. What’s up?”
Jacques crooked a finger. “Come and see.”
