(Bt/Scorn/S9/Ladies) Gemmi sits in a pile of what used to be buffet food as everyone clears out around her. The crowd murmurs and begins pointing to her when Kittycut asks her question, and it dawns on the Gremlin Golem that she may very well be in an extreme amount of trouble.

"Ummmm...weww, you see..." She starts, looking around at everyone, wide-eyed. "Um...nevewmind!"

The tiny girl leaps to her feet and begins to cheese it, but only gets to the edge of the crowd when she is grabbed by her suspenders and swung upwards, squealing as she is caught.

"EEEEEEE!"

"Ohhh, no you don't!"

Regina snatches up her youngest child as she, Maria, and Antoinette make it to the scene, and just in time. Gemmi squirms like mad, trying to get loose. At last she hangs limp as Regina holds her up and looks at her sternly.

"Wrecking a buffet? Knocking out your mother?  You have a lot to live down, Gemmi Ibrahim.  You're not getting out of this one."

Gemmi hangs like a despondent, lifeless doll, not even bothering to protest.

"Oh, thank goodness she is safe." Antoinette puts a hand on her cheat amd, unconsciously, puts one on Maria's shoulder.

"Some help would be welcome," Thomas says to Imperia, as cordially as he can manage under the circumstances. "Please take Lilrava and get her cleaned up for me. I have to see about a patient."

Thomas gives Lilrava a stern look. "I can see your sisters are starting to rub off on you. We'll discuss exactly what that means as soon as I'm finished.  Go with Imperia and do as she says, please."

He turns to Jorge as the rain tapers off and a warm, gentle breeze begins to dry them. "All right. Now, what's this about a mark, or a rune?  Where did you say it was?"
