Summary
“Excuse me,” she calls, and waits until the chatter dies down. Once she has everyone’s attention, she takes a deep breath and steels herself. “Thank you all for coming tonight. As you are all aware, I am seeking a suitor. To ensure that my betrothed possesses courage and intellect, I have devised a contest.”
Beatrice can feel her parents’ eyes glaring daggers at her as the crowd begins to murmur. Lifting her chin, she continues, “Some of you may know that I have a companion, a black Persian cat by the name of Lilith. She does not tend to let people get very close to her, except for me. I will be tying a small key to Lilith’s collar that unlocks my front door. The first person who manages to get the key and open the door will be granted my hand. I wish you all luck.”

After travelling, Ava comes to town to find everyone obsessed with catching the cat that she happened to accidentally befriend in an alley.

Summary
“Oh, Bea is going to kill me.”
Ava is very well known around town for losing things by now - their house keys, her key to The Cat’s Cradle for when Suzanne gets her to close up at the end of her shift, her purse full of her earnings for the day. She’s even left Bea behind before.
Normally when she loses things, her wife gives her a fond but bemused smile and then helps locate whatever it is. She’s not a naturally angry person - in all of their years together, Ava has only heard Bea yell a handful of times. She wonders if this might just be one of those rare occasions though.
Ava has somehow managed to lose their daughter.
