Olive Branch

Previously the lodgings of the late Lady Braddock, grandmother to Brian and Elizabeth, the Dower House fell into disuse for a number of years, particularly after Braddock Manor passed to Brian himself. Since the arrival of the University, it has been renovated into housing for faculty, staff, and students with special lodging needs.

"I'd had a sneaking suspicion," she said with a wry grin, a tuft of grey fur worming its way forth where the skin of her neck met her business attire.

"Why do I have the feeling you can't even try to make that sound innocent?" She said, the fur shrinking back into her skin.

When Sam came back there'd be no more sign of bags or styrofoam containers, the food instead put on plates, table set along with a couple candles lit.

And indeed when she emerged she wasn't kidding at all about getting comfortable, clad only in a grey pelt. She smiled looking over the spread.

"Lovely."
