I don't clearly remember much of it; calls of congratulations, lots of visitors, even demands for interviews from a few of the newsnets. As if I didn't have enough to do! But the family in general was very supportive, fending calls for me, weeding out obnoxious guests and sending those on their way, usually by a swift kick. But the real problem was P'nyssa; at first, it had been simply enough for her to know that I supported her in this, but now the harassment of the outside world was becoming intolerable. I was so sorely tempted to invite her to Brie's and ask her to stay there; it being one of my few hidden places. P'nyssa returned to work, despite her condition. Or maybe because of it. Mostly, it kept her away from the Castle, and from the interferences that were now occurring in my life. Although Paul frequently said that it was "No big deal," I could see that the strain was getting to him. There hadn't been a press run like this since the Dragons had been released. Ress and Ember decided that tradition in our household was sacred, and that therefore, crashers or not, we were going to have a Dead Rabbit Party, complete with big blue inflatable dead bunny. |
