"Urgh. I'm sure Shea will make the most of it, too. Planting their little seeds of power everywhere. They'll love it."

“Hmph.” She kept walking. One of her trouser legs fell down from where she’d rolled it up and became visible, but she wasn’t sure if it’d be more or less noticeable if she stopped to fix it. How embarrassing.

He ignored it. "How have your other studies been coming along, you two?"

“Fine,” Rana said, deciding not to draw attention to it and hope he continued not to notice.
“Good! I’m getting really good at penmanship,” Lia said proudly.
(What are some topics he’d want them to be proficient in as well as some he’d be annoyed with Rana taking up? If any? Lias probably gonna both brag and try to get Rana in trouble if there’s anything in particular lol)

(Northern culture in general, Southern culture, any sorts of mathematics and sciences, literature and art, music, all the noble stuff plus technology. He'd be annoyed with Rana taking interest in the functions of the Orator's domain--Rim. He would also dislike any social justice causes she tried to take up. If she took an interest in the Hunter he'd be furious and afraid.)
"Wonderful, Lia." He nodded approvingly. "What else?"

“I’m also doing quite well in my art classes,” Lia bragged, puffing up. “I made a vase yesterday and it looks super cool! I get to paint it this afternoon.”

"Very nice. Be sure to include some maple leaves in there as well! Rana, what about you?"

Rana glanced at him, then away with a little blush. “I didn’t like how mine turned out so I didn’t fire it in the kiln.”
“Hers was all lopsided and the handle fell off!” Lia offered eagerly.
Rana blushed a bit more but didn’t try to defend herself. It would only make it worse.

Cairbry rolled his eyes; they were nearing the palace doors now. "Why am I not surprised? Is there anything you don't mess up, Rana?"

She blushed even more and scowled, not looking at him. How did he still manage to get to her after all this time? “I seem to have a perfect track record for being the family disappointment.”

"Couldn't have said it better myself." The servants opened the doors for them.
