[Oh he can play along with this one...]

Cain, who allowed you to call out like this?

Voice

[misterblackbird]

...! [Can you hear the small and frightened gasp there?]

No one, Father. But, I hadn't heard when you might be back. And I was--I was concerned.

[allinhishands]

Your concern is very touching, my son. However, you are doing what you shouldn't.

[He's shaking over here...]

I know I am, Father.

[he_who_kills]

You no go outside!

[misterblackbird]

You're a peculiar one. Why shouldn't I go outside?

[he_who_kills]

[Think FAST!!!]

Servant not here! You no leave without servant!

[misterblackbird]

Do you mean Riff?

... No, I suppose if he isn't here, I shouldn't go outside. Not unless he comes back.

[Oh, bother it all, it's certainly not as though this is a voice she hasn't heard before, or an unfamiliar tale, or that she doesn't know exactly what it means as soon as it clicks--

But drat, drat, drat it all, at least those other times the monster he was calling out for wasn't actually here to hear it...]

[All right, time to put Operation Super Stealthy Kidnap The Little Earl To Save Him From His Ultra Creepy Family into action. Like she is any good at being nefarious whatsoever. But hey, it's worth a shot.]

You like secrets, do you?

[misterblackbird]

I beg your pardon?

[primrosella]

Are you fond of them, secrets? If you're to be the Earl of Secrets, I'd hope you would be. It wouldn't do at all to be the earl of something you weren't fond of, would it?
