It is. Perhaps what it all might look like as the rest of our siblings would get older and wed. [But not her.]

We can ask Pietro. He might like it more if Wanda is there. As long as it is not so formal.

[sheening]

[ well. ]

If they wish to. I would say so, yes.

I hope that Wanda would like to join us. It needs not be formal at all. Our dinners together on a regular basis are not. It could be like that, no? A time to talk, comfortably. Share in one another's company. [ casually...even if it's hard for daphne to not want to turn it into a whole affair. ]

I can ask, but I know they are not used to dinners as we are. I do not know how much Pietro has told you about his life before coming here, but I know he has lived on the streets before. Even as modest as our home is, it is still very grand to him. [And this was Eloise scaling down and purposely not trying to match either the Mayfair house or the country estate.]

[sheening]

He shared with me a little, but I did not know that. I would not wish for them to be at discomfort. If not dinner, then there must be something we can do together, too. But we shall have to see what they say. There must be any number of activities we could participate in together.

[ right? they may be regency ladies, but they can blend in with the modern day folks and fun!! eloise certainly already has a good deal of experience doing so. ]

I am not saying a family dinner is not possible, but it just may not look like what we think it. Perhaps we can cook together or something.

[sheening]

[ oh! well that makes her light up again. ]

I will be happy to adjust. Cooking together sounds very nice. I like the sound of it. I did help Pietro cook on the day of the housewarming, you know.

He told me. I am glad you get on much better now.

I will let you know if we can plan something.

[sheening]

I was grateful to have had him share some of his more intimate details with me. I hope he knows what it means to me.

[ because, of course she'd only wanted to start to get closer to pietro after their initial dumpster fire of a meeting. ]

Wonderful, sister. Thank you.

end?

I am sure he does. He can be sentimental when he wishes. Between all the agitation.

I shall let you know if and when I can put something together.
