I will, I assure you.

[ There's a slight pause of hesitation before she speaks again. ]

I would like to ask, if it isn't too much, that you look out for her. I'm afraid that with her here if my speaking out against Fitz or telling anyone has given him cause for any sort of retaliation, it would be against my daughter.

[ Jamie, she's sure, could hold his own against the man save him using any sort of supernatural powers which she's sure he doesn't have given his distaste for them. But Brianna is so new and Claire can only do so much.

[It isn't a strange thing to ask, given everything that's happened lately, but Regis still shows an expression of surprise at the request. He nods, though, without hesitation.]

Of course. [Her family is as good as his, after all.]

I'll be sure to be discreet about it.

[beautifullies]

Regis, thank you. Truly. You have no idea how much better that makes me feel.

[ Certainly Jamie will look out for her as well, but Regis has been in Wonderland longer and he knows its inherent danger. ]

I'm very grateful for you.

[mandrakes]

And I for you, my dear girl. You have but to say the word and I'll be wherever you need me.

[At the moment, the danger that Wonderland itself can present is not his most pressing concern.]

[beautifullies]

I understand. I won't take advantage of the offer.

[ She won't be crying 'wolf' that is; this gift is important to her, and she won't abuse it. ]
