66_sealsThere have been a lot of decisions to make lately.
What to eat, what to wear . . .
So many choices.
Eenie, meenie, minie, moe, catch a toddler by her toe. If she hollers . . .
Well, that's kind of the point, isn't it?
But there comes a time to put away childish things and get down to business.
And that time is now.
It's a clearing in the woods, unremarkable in any way.
Except, of course, for being the site of the meeting it is about to witness.
Lilith walks slowly around a tree that would be old, compared to something other than her, trailing the fingers of one hand along the bark, eyes either unfocused . . . or focused on something only she can see.

There won't be an audit, no one will be counting the costs, not in this case.
Lilith leans in and kisses her, first on the left cheek, and then on the right, then says, almost in Ruby's ear, "And take good care of Sam for me."
They're going to need him.
They have work for him.

The game is on.
