There was a pause as he inhaled, exhaled. "All right, my dear, is that any better at all?" He watched her with a curious look of sympathy, eyes compassionate, and tucked a wayward strand of red hair under her cheek. Poor child.
"And no picking any more fights with a Horseperson!" he admonished, and stood, turning to Anathema, and Adam.
