Don't be jealous- I'm much more exhausted today than yesterday. Yesterday I was too caught up in the flush of victory to notice what my body is all too aware of today.
As to the tale of Hydra and the Young Defector, it's Rod's fault that it turned into such a high drama. They had a shy sort of courtliness going after their date at the Yule Ball, and when the boy tried to kiss her cheek or somesuch, the bracelet Hydra was wearing (you can guess who gifted her with that) set off all sorts of alarms and Rod demanded that I go find whoever was molesting his precious daughter and hex him into an early grave.
Well, Hydra was practically hysterical about the whole thing- and you know that she's not prone to the dramatics that seize most other girls, either. It was obvious to me at once that she had a staggering amount of feelings for this Justin kid, and I thought pretty much as you do, Lucius, that to try to dam that up or stop it would only create far bigger problems.
So yeah, I've been covering for Hydra and the boy. Or, more accurately, pretending not to see what was so obviously happening. Not sure how she managed to get around that bracelet, since I still see her wear it, but she obviously found some method for fooling it.
