Stables, midwinter

[fiery_ring]

It's winter, but there is a roaring fire in the log cabin when Carlotta brings Teja back.

Will has made improvements to the cabin over the summer, it now boasting three bedrooms - theirs, Molly's, and a guest room. The indoor plumbing has been connected, bathroom and all, and it's generally looking very homely.

At the moment, the circus folk spending winter with them have gone out, apart from Fred who is dozing by the fire with Wolf.

Comments

"I shall not try," Teja says. "I value all parts of me, inside and out, unharmed by violent food."

Now, fighting is something else entirely, of course.

"Never trusted foreign food." Fred comments, from his half asleep position by the fire. "Not without letting the dog have a sniff anyway."

Carlotta smirks. "You would like Spanish food well enough."

Teja looks at the gifts he was given, as he is not sure that he was meant by that comment.

Carlotta figures both of them would like Spanish food, but for now:

"Fancy some tea?" She asks Teja.

[ostro_goth]

"Yes, please," Teja says. "I like the way you make tea in England."

[fiery_ring]

"In the teapot." Molly says.

[ostro_goth]

"Strong, and with milk," Teja says.

Carlotta puts the kettle on in the fireplace.

"It's a good job we take Molly over often to Will's parents' house, otherwise she'd be growing up without electricity." she ponders, with a chuckle.
