Simon's upset.

River -- if she is -- isn't in the same way. It's hard to tell.

What she is is sitting on the floor near the fireplace, between couch and end table. She has a gold bracelet, spangled with bells, lying on the table in front of her. Every so often she touches it, and a soft lilting melody chimes out.

"I think everyone got sick of the jokes before I was born," he tells her. "Alhammitt is the commonest name in all of Holand.

There's a river through the Flate and it goes to the sea! That's what Holand's by."

"More it's an ocean," he tells her. "What're you building?"

Mitt nods, understandingly. "I haven't either. But I've come her for a really long time. There're tall people."

"They're not fest'val people," he tells her, "they're real tall! Not as tall as with stilts, though."

"Yep," he agrees, cheerfully. "I'm going to be tall some day too."

Mitt is, for your information, quite small for his age.

"I don't know what a bilogical peartive is," he tells her, stopping in his building.

"Like something won't break when y'buy it?"

He's tilting his head to keep at least in the same direction she is.

"Okay," he agrees, amiably.

He doesn't understand, but it seems a useful tactic.
