<p>“Well, they cut off Dear, right?” it said. “And I am rather a lot of Dear. I am Dear and Rye and Praiseworthy! I am all of my down-trees. I <em>like</em> being all of my down-trees. I am proud of it!” She grinned. “I think of all of those, they might like Rye okay, but they hate Dear, and I cannot imagine them being too into Praiseworthy after the <em>History</em> named her as the propagandist during Secession.”</p>

<p>Motes frowned. “Wait, really?”</p>
|

<p>“I mean, I have not actually talked to them, but they cut off Dear for less.” Ey laughed bitterly. “But again, I am also a little one, right? We also have our family dynamic, yes? Hell, Rye and A Finger Pointing are <em>plenty</em> chummy, if you know what I mean.”</p>

<p>“Yeah. Sexy letters.”</p>

<p>“Well, okay,” Motes said, still giggling. “Do you really think they have cut you off? Effectively if not actually, I mean.”</p>

<p>Beyond, rather than the comfortable and comfortably her home that Slow Hours kept, there was a well-lit reading room, a solarium of sorts with glass that looked out over some far distant part of the selfsame prairie that the neighborhood abutted. A table, several chairs, and a small collection of far more comfortable recliners huddled in the middle, while beyond, room of shelving stretched into dimness.</p>

<p>And there, already levering herself out of her chair, was Slow Hours. Sis Hours, her big sister. Slowers. Slow, if she was feeling particularly cheeky. Behind her, scattered among the shelves, several more instances of her cocladist were at work, peeking over whenever they thought she was not looking.</p>

<p>“Hi Speck,” she said, smiling. “If you are calling me ‘Slow Hours’ then something must be up.”</p>

<p>Motes huffed.</p>

<p>“Come, my dear.” Slow Hours rested her hand atop the skunk’s head. “Do you want to go sit outside?”</p>
