tcnetwork | Arthur King

Someone will get nosy sooner or later about us being related: any ideas to explain because I may have an option.

You were with my mom on and off for a few years (actually true) and after she met Robert it was a decent split all things considered. Lost touch for a bit but after she passed a couple of years ago you decided it was time to find me?

Its true while leaving out the bad parts of our past. Our world is one thing but our garbage is being faced, no need for that to be common info.

I do think that would be wise Thea. The truth will out sooner than later and I'd rather control when it comes out then have someone slip and it becomes a scandal. And I think your version of the backstory would work well enough.

We're just taking back control, a powerful thing at the moment.

And since you'll ask how I'm holding up: let's call it a work in progress? I'm still having bad days but I'm holding up, hardest part right now is being able to enjoy my own company again. And honestly I'm missing the affection.

You can always ask for a hug from your father you know. You aren't the only one feeling lonely. The anniversary of Tommy's death is coming up and I could use some comfort myself.

[Another tough day in a series of them, Tommy's death left its mark on Thea as well.]

And with the anniversary of mom's passing hot on its heels. We'll face the dark together since I learned the hard way: being alone on a painful day a couple of years ago would have sent me to the liquor cabinet.

Dinner on both anniversaries? And I'm ducking away from the security tent with that hug, its quiet at the moment.

[After a couple of months, Katharine's typing has vastly improved. It's not perfect, by improved.

And, as if teenagers aren't going to talk about the interesting gossip: like asking someone's ward about their guardian.]

Who is Malcolm meryln? A boy in class says Arthur king is not your name.

[Malcolm had been expecting this conversation for a bit now and he thinks for a bit before.]

Malcolm was who I was once. A name I chose to hide behind. Arthur is who I really am.

[It's delayed only by her lack of technical skill: then Kevin showed her the exchange Arthur had with that not-Barry.

She has a thought, an upsetting one, in the back of her mind, that she may have been in this situation before. ]

I do not know what that means. Have you been dishonest with me?

That sounds like a good idea. it's important to remember those we lost even among alien concerts and parasites.

Especially now.

ETA is 5 minutes.

I'll be ready when you get here.

[Oh look, a little queen who sounds slightly worried. Considering her level of emotional moderation, that's a little odd.]

Arthur? I am in the Library with Kevin. The snow is coming in and we have no power. What should I do?

[Error: Irreparable invalid markup ('<small:>') in entry. Owner must fix manually. Raw contents below.]

<small:>[Malcolm's answer is tinged with no small amount of pain as if he is hurt.] Stay put Katherine, stay with Kevin and stay put. The C&P is taking a beating and Kristin and I are stuck for the moment.

I will stay until the power comes back.

[And she hears that.]

Arthur? What is wrong?

If you have time, may I speak with you this evening?

Of course Katherine is everything alright?

Sent from my Galaxy Tab® S2

I have an opportunity and I wish to discuss it.

It concerns my sisters.

I see. I hope this is a good opportunity and not one that involves murder.

Sent from my Galaxy Tab® S2

It would guarantee my safety.

[Of course it involves murder.]

And I would do what needed to be done to insure that. I promise you.

I know that. This is not because I doubt you.

I was thinking of applying to the Council for a position, part time of course while I finish my schooling.

My friend, Kevin, inspired the idea for nominating me for council.

What do you think?

[She's so excited her poor typing's returned.]

ARTHur! Mr. duffy at the library offeredme a job!

{Arthur is beaming with pride]

Wonderful Katherine. Let me know your work schedule I think it's time you start some self defense training.

Mr. Duffy and I are still working out the hours I will work, but I will give you a schedule as soon as I have it.

Could I learn archery, like you and Thea?
