Twenty-Fourth Negotiations; Dictated

[succubitch]

I have to say, I for one am glad that another year has gone by and once again the Castle didn't try to burden me with a child. I'd say it was trying to respect my choices, but considering this is the Castle we're talking about, that's a laughable assumption at best.

I wonder though, how many of were spared the burdens of parenthood this time around? I'm just a little curious, is all.

I suppose I should be grateful I didn't have to be turned into a cat this year to get out of it, if nothing else.

It would seem so, as some pairs get the same children year after year.i

Which would lead one to believe that where they're from is somewhere outside the power of the castle, as the residents here don't age.

It's a safe assumption. I wonder where they're kept the rest of the year, while they're growing up.

[howruthless]

Do they have universes of their own?

[succubitch]

Do they even exist when they aren't here?

[howruthless]

Guess it's one of those mysteries we'll never figure out.

[succubitch]

I guess so.
