He is not going to be smart enough to get to the edge

Next sesssoon is Bookery, 1 July

What trouble am I going to get into today -- no, that's the wrong question. Sophronia, what trouble should I get into today?

If we're going to talk about such volatile topics, we might as well just tell the truth.

Peter Tillinghast is a sweet, gentle -- well, relatively compassionate -- soul with all the brains of a pile of buttons.

An abolitionist!

Ooh, a Quaker Abolitionist!

Mr. Harnell? If you want a doctor you could marry him to Dr. Butler.

Martin Croyle

Narrative inevitablilty

I havbe a plan

Im not so sure about your plan and I dont know abouty that letter

Its not so much a new plan as another stage in the The Plan

Your father didn't give you a bnday part y like that

If I do this to him is it out of period?

Oh father, we've found you a friend

Id have you even if you were ACTUALLY A DECENT MAN

You dontenjoy invading faerie to take down an evil king whos possesing a friend of outs?

I think you r foamnce at the wedding woudl be far too0 appropriate

Perhaps campiooon will show up

Even campion not showing up as it is more scandalous if alice remains elatively pure


Penultimate Session: Helping Alice Return

Sophronia, do you want to help Victor out?

I'm thinking about it.

V I arribve on time! WHAT IS WRONG with you people?... I guesws Ishould arribe fashionabnle late

Your highness, I beg your pardon, but something horrible may have haqppened to me knight

Sir Knight... the shapehachanger, gregory, is afteaid something horrible has happened to you. Has it?

No, tell him I'll be there at what society considers a proper hour

No, G, nothing harrible has happened to mr. K. He intends to be late.

No, never.

Something about societal expaectations

Dear God, he's capable of learningt

Not spying, dang it! I'm trying to be a decent -- no, not really. I'm just not that interested in their relationship foibles, and am distracted by Angelina.

R: Finally!

Oh. Do I approve of the union?

YTou seemed to think it was a good idea.

Oh, excellent. Is it?

NMo,I dont want to know what asoula wd do to us if we misplaced her fiance

And I'm certainly notdealuing with wintsont compliangin about this marriage he's been working so hard on putting up with going cockeyed

I think we can rely upon mama's force of will to dragf us bnavk

I wasnt going to say it. It seemed rude.

Only if u say it without a smile.

Did you enjoy the party?

Oh yes, very much so!

I think you have a bit of grammar trouble.

KJerberan Grammarians!

I don't suppose Martianh has words for your present self and your future selfg?

Actually,k it does.

I don't suppose youd teach them to me.

I can, but I don't think it will help you much in English.

Letter to Talos

My dear fellow,

Enclosed, my notes on a monograph I have been irregularly working on. I would appreciate your input on them.

In addition, if I do not return from my latest escapade, I wanted to entrust them to you. Speak to Douglas Matthews-Highgate for the names of others with whom you might wish to consult. Fair thee well.

Begin notes: "On the rights and duties of non-human citizens of Her Majesty's Empire"

Talos would notice that the notes assume all humans are treated identically to each other, unless specific legal circumstances, such as noble titles or government appointments specify otherwise. A bit of equality-for-all-humans, regardless of race, religion, gender, etc, snuck in the back door.

The assertion of identity on the part of an individual is the fundamental act in the establishment of legal rights and duties. For instance 'My name is X, and I am a resident of Q, a village in Ashire, and I am a subject of Her Majesty.'

"We are accustomed to treat anyone who appears to be an adult human as a fully competent and self sufficient individual. To strip such a person of their rights requires legal proceedings of one sort or another, during which the presumption is that the person is legally competent, until proven otherwise. Individuals who do not resemble adult humans, including but not limited to those who resemble children, talking animals, animal-like humanoids, non-terrestrial beings both humanoid and non, clockwork automata, fairies, demons, angels, and hybridized beings, but who are nevertheless capable of asserting their citizenship, should be assumed to be sapient, sentient, ensouled, and competent until proven otherwise."

Notes from Ultimate Session to Date

Best man

Maid of Honor: Sophronia and Alice are each others

I simmply dont think we should invite people to the wedding merely because we are afraid of what they might do. It might start a trend!

No one would inbite us to anyone.

We'd have the opposite problem -- wed have too many invitations!

You did make a promise ---

Not my child!

Vioctor, it's perfedctly all right if you want to kill him, but I think that is a little beyond the pale

Edgar

Archibald is going to be Gr's best maqn

Emile is going to be Victort's

Alice likes sheer fabrics of black, red, and green

Will for Sophronia

Hi, we just hijacked one of you7r ships. We just want to ask one of your prisoners a few wquetions
