Book seems finally to be shifting again. Aude has begun to extricate herself from her initial problems -- though Jehan has things to tell her she isn't going to like. And Liyan is smug:

'Liyan placed a hand over the lock plate for a long moment. Again, Aude smelled warm metal. Then he stood back and nodded. “Done.”
“Thank you.”
“Liyan-kai.” This time the edge to Qiaqia’s voice was amusement. “You have fused it shut.”
“Yes. Was that wrong? I thought it would be the most efficient. It will,” and Liyan looked at Jehan, “make it considerably harder for the inhabitants of this building to pursue you.”
“They might,” Qiaqia said, “use the rear door.”
“Oh.” Liyan’s brows drew in. “I might fuse that one also, if you wish.”'

Issues of the day include sneaking, hiding, creaking floorboards and the uncooperative habits of socks. This book thinks it's a comedian.

Skirt of the day: long heavy black cotton.

The uncooperative habits of socks! Wonderful.

Socks never cooperate indeed (though it looks like some men don't cooperate, either :) )
Go you!

Hmmm. As long as the book is a good comedian!
