"Not that I can see. I'd guess things will get a whole lot more interesting as time goes on..."

"I suppose so." Del checks her shirt, just in case, and takes another bite of the cake. "Anyway... I'm going to go put that necklace out for sale." She grins wickedly.

"You sneaky little sod. I'm rubbing off on you."
He grins.
