pov it is summer 1983.
a certain doctor is informing the earl that he has spent too long cooped up in his private studies, not enough time spent entertaining his guests on this fool's holiday. starts rolling the old man away. the locks on this wheelchair are not working. damn it, marcus, the hell are you doing? they are approaching the grand staircase of the estate. marcus is forced to generate his own entertainment with his host. bon voyage, oswell--
a young girl is left to fend for herself in her own family home. she only just closes the door before one of the blondes can hit her with a genuine weapon. her eyes dance around the room. keeping one foot firm against the door as the boy on the other side screams his frustration, danae drags the nearest antique desk over to block the entrance. darting for the window, she throws it open, only to be summarily maced by the female half of the woesome twosome. she lashes out blindly and feels the sweet relief of a connecting blow. they are on the first floor. she can't fall that far. all vicious preteens involved will survive.
the other earl is having a lovely tea time with the far younger wife of one of his late father's associates. they are discussing mutual interests, their children, and stocks within the company. the beautiful young woman thinks it's nice to have someone to actually meet onher own level, she does care for james, but he gets so lost in his work. the earl nods along sympathetically. mentally, he is formulating how best to cuckold the bastard he knows killed his father, he knows it wasn't a lab accident. this is a game of wits and if he does win, it will be because he's the only one playing. upstairs is the sound of a gunshot. the old men are stroppy today. somewhere deeper in the mansion he hears his own daughter shriek out in rage. the twins can handle themselves. it's fine.
the only one actually having a good time on this farcical vacation is the kindergartner. she has liberated 'danny's' record player and has put on a bowie vinyl. ev*lyn is grooving down the hall as absolute hell breaks out across the mansion. she is happy, serene, at peace, in her lane, thriving, flourishing, getting her money up.
