"Looks like we'll have to go over the lesson again next time I see you - which will be soon."

great egads, this one was soooo sloooow. First the travel, then the meeting everyone and then the...well..the playing house and the waiting. almost 400 pages of waiting....

- Overjoyed while reading this! Dimitri is such a badass! :)
