Quiet at the center

Orchid Chronicles: It's been quiet since the Von Bloom and O'Hare girls have gone into rest mode. I actually saw The Old Gray Goose whispering to the retreating spike of the Von Bloom youngling. I heard her say, "You will be fine, sweetie.... Enjoy a nice sleep, and when you come back we'll talk about PEEPS marshmellow treats! I can't wait to see you again!" And with that she turned and began staring at the retreating sun remembering the silliness of the Von Bloom youngling and giggling about the stories they'd shared.
