(Meanwhile, downstairs...)

"I fold." Without missing a beat, I throw down my cards and dash upstairs. I get to the main hall just in time to see a be-toweled Praetor dashing across. Fuming, I march into the washroom.

Both of the girls start arguing at once. I hold up my hands. "Aurum, get back to the linen room and just finish washing his clothes!  Dry them with an ignis rune if you have to!" Without a word she hurries away.

"Dad, I swear I waited until Aurum said she was going bring us towels but she neverdidandIthoughtnobodywasinthe..."

"STOP." I grab a towel and thrust it at her. "We will discuss this later.  Dry off and be in the parlor in ten minutes."

"But daaaaaad..."

"For goodness sake, Aegis, we have guests!  Don't argue!" I leave her and knock on the hallway door. "Praetor?  You can open up.  It's me."
