"I thought I'd book us a room somewhere in Dillingham. Not too much a drive but far enough not to have to worry about being seen by anyone we know." @Morrigan

"Maybe. They were stuck there alone together for a pretty long time without much to do." @Morrigan

"I'm not any more sure than you," he smiled weakly, "I think all we can do is try to do what's best for him, whatever the outcome... and just accept that neither of us is coming out clean, regardless." @Morrigan

Seth nodded once, "Well... It'll be nice to know for sure, one way or the other. I'm nervous as hell but knowing is better than wondering." @Morrigan

"Strange. I hadn't seen the two of them around each other much for weeks before all this shit kicked up," he remarked, "seemed like he and Aurora were getting more serious, too." @Morrigan

Red nodded once, "I guess that's for the best. Have David or Debra said anything about it?" @Morrigan

"Well that's the polite way to describe it I suppose," she answered. "You can both fuck off," Red retorted with an eye roll. @Morrigan

"So no time for suspense, that's a relief," he joked weakly. @Morrigan

"He sure didn't make the last few months easy," Red grimaced, "almost glad he came early." "That's how Robert and I felt about you," Clarissa interjected, "obviously that one didn't fall far from the tree." @Morrigan

"So he's still staying with her? Has he explained that yet?" Red asked as he started to pick at the plate she'd made. @Morrigan

"Thanks," Red murmured, moving out of the dogs way to avoid her, "have you talked to Seth recently?" @Morrigan

"Still not great, but a lot better than that first couple of days at least. The inflammation getting under control helped a lot." @Morrigan

She'd said the same the last few days and it seemed like she was later each night, "Try not to work yourself too hard at least," he said rather than point it out, "you've got an outpost full of support staff for a reason." @Morrigan

"Humans tend to have more consistent experiences than wolves do," Red shrugged off handedly, "and Deb hasn't had any outstanding medical episodes which is always a good sign." @Morrigan

Red frowned briefly, "Leave it out," he answered, "when are you planning to come home for the night?" @Morrigan
