[Feel free to use this space for letter/package deliveries as well as visits/knocks on the front door!]

Yeah. I'm just happy it's not making you upset anymore.

It feels less like I'm doing something irredeemably wrong, these days.

Very good, because you've done nothing wrong at all.

[ He gives Alfie a little smile at that, sipping from his tea. ]

I'm still going to cover these up in public, whether I have done wrong or not.

That would be the gentlemanly thing to do, yes. You're lucky it's winter.

[ He makes a face at Alfie. ]

I wear my cloak in the summer, too. [ MAXIMUM STEALTH ]

Yes, but now you've got an excuse to never take it off.

[ Monotone: ] Ah, you've revealed that this was my plan all along.

We'll have to get you one in white, so you won't be so hot in the warmer months.

Gods, no. You will never see me in white.

Not even to blend into the snow?

Nope. Now it's out of principle.

That's the sort of talk that gets thieves spotted and caught, that is.

It's a good thing I'm retired.

Good thing.

[Alfie murmurs, edging down further into the cushions. He'll try not to jostle Royce's collar too much here.]

[ Thanks, buddy. Royce hums out soft, and goes quiet for now. ]
