    "Who doesn't want to know that we notice them and value them? And who might respond to us better when they feel that they matter? It probably cannot be overstated – it matters... that people matter."

    Summary

    “We should get out to the countryside while the weather is good,” Lockwood declares. “Next Tuesday perhaps, when the diary is free. We can take a picnic. Get Lucy back to her roots.”

    She swats at him with her rolled up magazine while George protests she’s going to knock the teapot over and he simply grins.

    They don’t get out to the countryside. They end up taking a case just off of Oxford Street, but afterwards in the pale early morning light, Lockwood insists they walk the long way back through Hyde Park, chancing little glances at Lucy as they meander through the trees, and it’s almost as nice.

    In which Lucy has a nightmare that Lockwood can't ignore.

    Summary

    “Hey...Candace?”

    “Yeah?”

    “I’ve been meaning to ask, but I didn’t want to ever...you know, throw you off your groove.” He paused, gauging her reaction. “What makes busting your brothers so...important to you?”
