Hi. I have this sneaking suspicion that I missed a lot, seeing as it's now January and I think I was kidnapped. So much for my little get together for the new year.

[There's a few metallic clatters here, one of them is drawn out as a ring spins to a slow stop on her desk.]

I also seem to have way more Renaissance-style jewelry than I remember, and that doesn't bode well. Uh, Lucrezia...?

There seems to be a lack of mass confusion, so I'm guessing it was only a few of us that... what? Got stuck in a--I don't even know what that was, really.

Sooooo. Care to fill me in? Anyone? Please tell me I wasn't turned into an old woman or something and just don't remember that.

I knew you were fifteen. I just had no solid proof until now!

Knew I was fifteen when?

You get such a kick out of talking about dicks. There's no way you're over twenty. I've suspected since the first time you ever chuckled at a conversation about one.

Ah, but I only like talking about my dick... so I am like any other man. What man doesn't?

You're the only man I know who does it in front of me. [Can't and doesn't want to imagine any of the other males in her life huddled together and giggling over dicks.]

That is because I am an honest man.

Shameless, you mean. That's the word you were looking for.

Yes, that too.

[She just smiles and shakes her head. Oh, Ezio :') ]

[He bumps his foot against hers, under the table.]

I am only teasing, dolcezza.

[She bumps his back.]

I know when you're teasing, don't worry.

Good.

And I'll be nice and do the dishes for you.

Ah, such graciousness. In return, I will try to not talk about my cock so much.

Thanks. I've seen it one too many times, so I don't really need to hear about it.

[Tiny smirk.]

[He chuckles and goes back to picking at his dinner.]

I will take that to heart.

You're usually good at listening, so I'll believe you.

I'm glad.

[He leans on one elbow.]

Dolcezza, have you spoken to Lucrezia recently?

[That's an abrupt subject change... OR IS IT? Steph manages to not look concerned. Just hesitantly intrigued.]

I talk to her recently all the time. Why?

Does she suspect I am in a relationship with Lana?

[Oh. Uh oh.]

If she does, she hasn't said anything to me about it.

Did she say something to you?

No, not exactly... but she sent her gift to Lana to me, and her gift to me to Lana. We do not know what to make of it.

[Yikes. That's sort of creepy. Stephanie shifts in her seat.]

That makes me want to lean towards yes. But even if she does, what can she do? You and Lana are on the same page. A letter probably won't ruin your relationship.

How could she know, though? I teased Lana once over the journal, she could not draw that conclusion from that alone.

I haven't said anything to her.
