I chiefly did the Uncle Hound thing on the fly because I had figured that somewhere along the line, she began asking you about your travels and writing them down, like it might be something she bugged you for every time you came by because she's so interested in geography and culture and whatnot. The other kids would've interacted no less affectionately, but since Lucida's second passion is exploring, I figured that she would see you as someone who shared that with her. And I threw in the falling from the trellis because I also figured she'd be in that klutzy adolescent stage, as well as be something of an uncoordinated nerdy girl.

And it also goes without saying that she was affected the most by the news...
