Marlow Appreciation Time
Solver was pappoosed to her back, and she carried two thermoses of cocoa as she knocked with her foot on Marlow's door.

"There's a good Mexican lpace that's not far. Let's go eat there and talk about... is it okay to talk about hockey yet? And your brother, and baby things."

"It is a perfect time to talk about hockey. The season starts in less than a month, and there's at least two Canadian teams with a chance this year. Now that we covered that, yeah... Mexican sounds great. Family stuff too."

"Enlighten me," Vernique says, smiling as she cuddles against him on the way to her car. What makes their chances so good?"

"Vancouver will have a chance as long as the twins are playing well. Everything revolves around Sedin to Sedin goals, and occasionally brilliant, if inconsistent goaltending, if it comes at the right time. And Montreal... well, still has enough faith that they'll get the cup back eventually to keep spending money on the team."

"And your dad and brother're just going to root for Toronto regardless of whether they have a chance, right?" Vernique was pretty sure she remembered that part of the breakdown correctly.

"Yeah, admittedly, same way I'd cheer for any team from Canada if they made the finals. At least til we get the cup back at least once. Even if its Vancouver."

"There will be a lot of that, nationally, until someone actually wins it. Since the spending sprees in America started... well, Montreal used to be the 'Yankees of Hockey' by some accounts. Now, next season would mark the 20th anniversary of any Canadian team winning it."

"Toronto Blue Jays and former Montreal Expos aside. The Blue Jays, in fact, having won the World Series the same year Montreal last won the Stanley Cup. But there's now one Canadian team in baseball compared to 7 NHL teams."

She smiles. "I'll admit, I was thinking more of what would happen if somebody invited all the Japanese teams. The Little League version totally trounced us, I hear."

"It would be a giant mess. The pitching is pretty different. Japanese players are showing they can keep up at the plate, at least their stars, but the differences in power and finesse pitching would take a lot of adjustment. That, and the rules quibbles. Plus, of course, the fight over whether to recognize Mr. Oh."

"Probably pretty disastrous, yeah," she agrees. Once they arrive at the restaurant, she'll take his arm. "Probably the last one's enough to guarantee how absolutely it'll never happen. The Americans wouldn't, and the Japanese wouldn't be having with that. So how is Mason?"

"Yeah, I think that alone pretty much kills it, even if nothing else did. Mr. Oh would invalidate the most cherished record in baseball. Never mind than an American would too, if they included Josh Gibson. But anyway, Mason is... having some trouble, but heading the right direction, I think."

"Negro league. 75 home runs in a season, close as anyone could ascertain, died of a brain tumor a little bit before integration. As for Mason... he'd like some help in things involving his girlfriend. I was hoping you might be willing to talk to him, when you're in a better place. He may also be going to school down here for a bit."

"Definitely impressive. Shame it's not more well-known even now. And good for him doing the school thing. I'd be happy to talk to him...later."

"Yeah. Sorcerors can be hit and miss about that. Shaman... was sometimes one of the most empathic and caring people around. Other times, head in the clouds, or on other dimensional... stuff. Wouldn't be surprised if she was the same."

"Yeah. She's...definitely my favorite witch in the house at the moment. I... kind of... broke my hand on Aslief's face. I was way out of line. The fact that she was, too, doesn't help all that much."
