It's dark when Carlotta emerges with Teja and Egil. The audience are making their way home, and the circus folk are winding down for the night.

"True. Well, Molly will be going to St Clare's in September, and Bobbie will likely be going to school in a few years, so the caravan will have more space then."

"Maybe then, someone new can turn up," Teja says.

"They could. But I don't know whether I even want that or not." Carlotta says. "Being married in this age usually means being submissive to the husband."

"Nobody says you can't go beyond that," Teja says. "But things will happen as they happen. Fate and choice will ever keep a balance in our lives; we must but learn how to best stand upon it."

"How is Pyrrha?" Carlotta asks. "Is she keeping well? It's wonderful that you've stayed together so long."

[ostro_goth]

"She is well, and going about her business as do I, when we are apart," Teja says.

Loki is also not nearly always Pyrrha, but Teja accepted that long ago, along with the rest of this strange arrangement.

"Our love does not lessen with time."

"That's lovely." Carlotta says.

"Come, let me show you around the camp."

[ooc: Fade here? Thanks for the thread :)]

"Oh yes, let's go!" Egil declares, all enthusiastic.
