Hideaway Strath And my axe

Making assumptions about what Phox will be told in the other thread...

-Yeah,- he agreed with a shrug. It was unexpected, but not bad, in his opinion. -Not sure exactly why they did it, but more power to 'em, I guess.- He paused, allowing time for Towhee to ask about Liffey. -One of the Blackthorn kids. A year or two older than us, I think.- He honestly couldn't remember. He couldn't remember growing up around her, and if Towhee didn't remember Liffey, it was likely the Blackthorn hadn't been around even if Phox had stuck around.

The news about Colt turned Phox's expression into a grimace. -What is it with all the milk toast around here?- he asked. -Does that mean Niamh is in charge, too?- Somehow, Phox couldn't imagine Colt running things all on his own. Maybe he was just a figurehead while Niamh did all the real work. It made him all the merrier that he and Towhee had stuck together and gone off to do their own thing, although he did wonder about Wifi's kids.
