\"Out<\/a>Fred & Krystal are married. And although Krystal is paying for actions she took with a lot of cases that take her away for weeks at a time, they are still happy.<\/p>\n

Much as I strive for transparency in these accounts, I\u2019m afraid there will be no record of those next few hours, time that Krystal and I took for ourselves as a newly married couple.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Until someone decides to try and burn them out–destroying not just their home, but threatening the life of Charlotte.<\/p>\n

Fred is–as always–a delight.<\/p>\n

As someone who might be on this planet for hundreds of years to come, being eco-conscious seemed the only logical choice.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But there are a lot of other interesting and delightful bits, such the visit to the mall Gideon is debating rehabbing or selling.<\/p>\n

Wasting no time, I spurred my frog onward, zooming toward Octavio at speeds that frankly made me a bit uncomfortable.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And I was fascinated by the choices Charlotte was given after her displacement, in a way I didn’t expect to be.<\/p>\n

“…I called you here to discuss the employment of Charlotte Manor.\u201d <\/p>\n

The fake excuse took me a bit off guard. \u201cWait, what would we have to discuss? Is there an issue?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cOnly that her talents have been criminally underutilized. Charlotte has proven to not only be an incomparable assistant, she\u2019s been a great aid to Richard and Sally, not to mention a source of joy. I would happily offer her a permanent position in my employ; however, she is a member of the House of Fred, and therefore, I would need your permission.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Plus there are the little bits of life that get thrown in.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy apologies for the presumption. I knew this only as Deborah\u2019s number.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cIt is, but no one picks up their damn phones anymore unless they know the number.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As expected, this was another great addition to the series.
