<p>He forced himself to remain seated at the table, not giving in to the overwhelming urge to pace. &ldquo;But&hellip;I mean, do you remember our conversation years ago? The one about the Dreamer Module?&rdquo;</p>
<p>Codrin nodded warily. &ldquo;That some of the Odists were against it, yes.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Then certainly you can see my concern!&rdquo; Tycho hissed, leaning toward Codrin.</p>
<p>The historian startled back. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m afraid I don&rsquo;t follow, Mr. Brahe, I&ndash;&ldquo;</p>
<p>The historian startled back. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m afraid I don&rsquo;t follow, Dr. Brahe, I&ndash;&ldquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Can we at least step outside?&rdquo;</p>
<p><em>&ldquo;If you would like me to be elsewhere, I can, Mr. Brahe,&rdquo;</em> the fox said, standing at the entryway to the kitchen, three mugs in its paws. <em>&ldquo;But I do hope that you will trust me.&rdquo;</em></p>
<p><em>&ldquo;If you would like me to be elsewhere, I can, Dr. Brahe,&rdquo;</em> the fox said, standing at the entryway to the kitchen, three mugs in its paws. <em>&ldquo;But I do hope that you will trust me.&rdquo;</em></p>
<p>Tycho stared at the fox.</p>
<p>It stepped forward, set the three mugs down on the table, each smelling of chamomile. <em>&ldquo;You must forgive me for eavesdropping, but I did hear you mention the Dreamer Module. I can assure you that I share little in common with the elements of the clade that were against its inclusion. It is not something that I particularly care about, but it is, fine, I am sure.&rdquo;</em></p>
<p>&ldquo;I can vouch for it,&rdquo; Codrin said, reaching for eir mug but simply holding it in eir hands rather than sipping. &ldquo;If we absolutely must step outside, you understand that, as it&rsquo;s my partner, I&rsquo;ll likely tell it about our conversation anyway, right?&rdquo;</p>
<p>After a pause, Tycho&rsquo;s shoulders slumped as he let out the pent up tension within them. &ldquo;Alright, alright. Besides, it doesn&rsquo;t sound like there&rsquo;s much use in trying to hide anything from them.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Dear rolled its eyes, but sat at the table anyway. <em>&ldquo;You could hide whatever you like from me, Mr. Brahe, I will not look. As you guess, though, the same is not true of other Odists.&rdquo;</em></p>

<p>&ldquo;I read some of your histories, Codrin,&rdquo; he said at last. &ldquo;So I know you know what&rsquo;s on the Module.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Codrin froze, mug halfway lifted. Dear&rsquo;s ears stood erect, and all sleepiness fled from its features.</p>
<p>&ldquo;You understand why I&rsquo;m concerned, then, right?&rdquo;</p>
