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 unimpressed one.

Welcome to Fletching
Their covert base of operations was a trite little two-bedroom condominium a ten-minute drive from Bellwether’s campus. Juuyu had stashed Inti with Jiminy, and for the sake of appearances, Argent made several.
Meanwhile, Jacques unpacked trunks and flipped through a three-ring binder with laminated menus from local restaurants. Tacky… but informative.
He set up the cheap coffee maker in the kitchen, then stepped outside to contemplate the sky. Argent’s clan colors were stunning on cloudy days, but the new smoky gray ensemble would be dead sexy in full sun. Decisions, decisions.
Someone gasped, and a tentative voice asked, “Jacques Smythe?”

Hmm, to recognise Jacques on sight, I wonder if it’s one of the Sunfletch boys? He DID have to find his way to the bakery next door to them to ambush Kit somehow!
