All of my reviews for these short stories are influenced by the fact that I adore this world and these characters and am desperate for all of the scraps I get given. That being said, the way that violence is written from the perspective of an outside character vs how it is from the character doing the violence is insane. The quick brutality and shift in power in a scene is so well done I could scream (and did).

Did I mostly enjoy this one because we got to see Bobbie being an annoying aunt? Yes... maybe. but it did a really good job of reminding me how much time she is out of work after Caliban's War. Also! Baby Bobbie Nephew being a GOOD BOY (and a dumb one)
(I have so many thoughts about the contrast between reading this story and how it was portrayed in the show but ahhhh)
