" So, it was that bad? That you couldn’t just leave Layton behind but had to flee the entire continent?”

“Mm,” Felix said noncommittally. His voice went raw. “I am sorry I left like that.”

“It’s okay. You don’t belong here. You were a wild toad caught in a mason jar.”

“With a stick and a leaf.”

“Hold on . . . am I the stick in this metaphor? Because I have lost some weight . . .”

“I didn’t know what I was doing. There was something uncomfortable about it.”

“I can’t imagine what.”

“Certainly not The Little Mermaidcomforter. That felt oh-so-right. "
