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 longstanding priorities.

“Before coffee?” complained Jacques.
“Coffee or a change of clothes. Choose.”
Wardrobe was an immediate yes. “Lord, look at the time. Parting is such sweet sorrow, etcetera, etcetera. Also, I’m holding you to your promise.”
“Did I promise something?”
“I’m struck through the heart! It was a solemn vow between friends.”
“Remind me.”
Jacques bussed Harrison’s cheeks. “Your summer holiday belongs to me. I’ll see you at Stately House.”

Loved this! Yes, wardrobe is always a priority for Jacques. Harris will love Stately House.
Okay new site, JetPack. Does this work the same? I guess it transferred all my stuff over from Word press.
