[The marquis has not spoken of Below to anyone since he got here months ago. No one but Iris, who talks in circles as much as he does; despite her efforts to be human, she never will be, and he enjoys that about her.]

[But here, now, something unexpected happens. He finds himself smiling.]

[It's not specific enough to say he misses home. He misses his life. He misses power, he misses cruelty, he misses superiority.]

[But he misses the tunnels, too, and magic sparking at his fingertips, and the London-ness of it all.]


It was a subway.

[It's silent permission. Go on. Ask. He may even answer; he can't say just yet, as this is not a mood he's familiar with.]
