“I love you, too,” she said.
Nathaniel's brow furrowed. He turned his face to the side and blinked several times. “Thank god,” he said finally. “I don't think unrequited love would have suited me. I might have started writing poetry.”
Elisabeth continued stroking his hair. “That doesn't sound so bad.”
“I assure you, it would have proven more unpleasant for everyone than necromancy.”

“What is this, master - the third time I've broken you out of a jail cell?”
Nathaniel coughed. “Minor misunderstandings, on both previous occasions,” he assured Elisabeth.
(....) He spoke mildly, his lashes shading his eyes. “At least you're wearing clothes this time, master.”
“I'll have you know,” Nathaniel said, “that that was an accident, and the public certainly didn't mind. One woman even sent me flowers.” To Elisabeth, he added, “Don't worry. She was forty years old, and her name was Mildred.”
