Aldaras lets the university have hold of the necklace again so they can finish learning everything about it. He'll start molding it when the Dean's learned all of its quirks - trying it now could accidentally make some aspect of it worse. Besides, it takes time, it's not like he can manage any progress in the time that it'll take for the Dean to identify anyway. Best to know where he's going when he starts going there.

News spreads pretty quickly about the knife's new location at the bottom of the ocean. Aldaras and Sintre become celebrities, along with being rich. Sintre is nigh-impossible to find in his hermithood. Aldaras - is not. The necklace is his. The mission to go encase the knife in concrete was organized by him. He's now deemed to be an important person, and as bewildering as that is, he works to roll with it.

He ends up invited to a party. It's the type of party with lots of important, famous people attending. He can bring one guest with him.

Right, he knows who he wants to bring, but first he has to ask her. Time to go find Annie.

How ever shall she show her appreciation?

That's up to her, he's actually really happy with things as they are now.

What if she doesn't want to settle for "really happy"?

Then she can have a ridiculously happy Aldaras who loves her very much!

Best.

Yup!

They're going to be here for a while. Maybe longer than 'a while,' actually.

Hopefully his sister will stay shooed for a while.

Aldaras is pretty sure she's smart enough to find a hotel.

Good for her. Annie appreciates the time to enjoy the perks that come with being necklaced.

Yup. Aldaras, too.

(When he realizes he's hungry, he comes up with the bright idea of hand-feeding her food.)

Ooh. Annie thinks that's adorable. He should definitely do it. And since he is hungry too she can feed him likewise.

Awwww. They'll be one of the lovey-dovey necklaced couples in no time. Actually, wait, no, they're already there.

They're super cute. They could pose for greeting cards if only that wouldn't mean holding still and not getting their hands all over each other.

Good luck with that. Because that is not happening any time soon.

Good.

Very.

But. Alas. They can't keep this up for literally ever. They're only human.

So eventually they are snoozing on each other. In, mercifully, Aldaras's bed.

Yup. Snuggled and exhausted and in love.

Annie eventually wakes up, but she doesn't get up right away. She stays snuggled up, thinking.

Aldaras is out, she's entirely free to think in peace. And privacy, thanks to the necklace.

Yes, that's very nice. She gets up eventually and puts on enough clothes to slip out of the room and look into the breakfast availability situation.

Thinking, thinking.

Breakfast is available, in various cookable and non-cookable forms! And Zevaia is not present. She's a smart girl.

Annie gets some cereal and goes to eat it in Aldaras's room because he is nice to be near.

He stirs soon enough, yawning and blinking blearily. He smiles, when he sees Annie.

"Morning," she says, petting his hair.
