How about an early morning ride?
Micheletto
You will help me with my crates. [ Because packing is tough. ]
Stephanie
Tell me if you mean to visit, even if not to see me. He would not find unexpected guests so pleasant.
What does it mean when the castle gave some no glimpse of old age?
[ Lucrezia is on her knees in the church in town, hands counting through her white rosary and reciting her prayers under her breath. She keeps her hood over her head.
It might seem foolish to believe that saying something over and over again gives it greater weight, or that time and voice can buy penance, but she feels she must at least-- try. She isn't praying for her own soul, she wonders if she would ever. But she loses count of how many times she has said the Ave Maria, and stands to go. ]

[Zack's been moping around for a week or so, keeping exclusively to himself. He's figured out what happened by reading back through the journal, but it's been hard to find too much impetus to care.]

Still, rather than voice the worry of what it might actually mean to her, he tries to make light of it instead]
Maybe it couldn't bring itself to change you.

Do you suppose even the castle keeps favorites?

[ As opposed to the morbid alternative. ]
But expecting to find 'meaning' in anything the castle does might be a waste of effort.

Like trying to find meaning in life's happenings, Joshua?

She might of been surprised to see Lucrezia, but really, a daughter of the Pope probably knew her prayers better than anyone. She supposed Lucrezia was unconcerned with the differences of religion really, and it was nice to have someone to pray with.]
My lady Lucrezia. [it's just a quiet murmur as she knelt beside the younger woman, her own fingers curling around her rosary.] May I join you? [Never mind that she already had, still, courtesy.]
no subject
The voice startles her for a moment, she had not expected anyone's company. The townsfolk seems content to ignore the building for the most part. She remembers her words after a beat. ]
Of course. [ Her gaze drops to the rosary. ] I sent one through you, to a good friend of mine, did I not?

I'm a little occupied right now, but maybe in a few days?
