[ The barest shake of Bastien's head. ]

He's been working hard for us without incident for a long time. He has other friends now. He's not in danger—not more than any of us. He cares about you.

You are not going to fail him. I meant it—if we ever go, we can take him with us. As long as he does not try to call me dad.

[ Anyone else, he'd have feigned defaulting to papa. ]

You—you know, that's between you and him.

[ Bastien keeps a very straight face, unnecessarily. ]

[ Bastien grins before he throws it, and while he throws it, and after it’s stuck wetly and pulpily to his cheek.

But he doesn’t laugh, and once he’s peeled the lemon off and dropped it into his own cup, the grin goes away. ]


They are going to be harder on you than I was.
