Home Sweet Home

Previously the lodgings of the late Lady Braddock, grandmother to Brian and Elizabeth, the Dower House fell into disuse for a number of years, particularly after Braddock Manor passed to Brian himself. Since the arrival of the University, it has been renovated into housing for faculty, staff, and students with special lodging needs.

"Great. I'm glad for her. And I'm glad you're still the bigger person even without me around to set a bad example." she smiles.

"You're not a bad person, Sara," Will sighed, chuckling. "I just tend to collect a ragtag collection of misfits."

"Oooh, be careful, Robbie!"

The dollhouse had been tricked out somewhat, with what looked like an actual scrap of mattress and blanket in the bedroom, and other fancier furniture.

"Nnno! Wanna play house! Daddy, play house!" she adds, tugging on his pants-leg to get him to shrink to the scale of the house and the dolls.

"Come on, Robbie, you can play later." she says and picks her daughter up around the waist. When Robin turns into what seems to be lead Sara in turn shifts into stone to lift the loudly objecting girl.

"Yes. It's super adorable." Sara says with a vaguely disgruntled smile. "Robin, turn back this instance or you're going into time-out."

"Why don't you want her playing with that anyway?"
