Lilly, Puck has noticed, has been missing for rather longer than is strictly usual. He notices this because he's the one who got stuck with the kids.

The door to Havelock's room is nudged open, at which point Puck waltzes in with Aria on one hip and Adrian on the other. (To be fair, it's kind of subdued waltzing; the twins aren't all that heavy, but they do begin to drain your soul after awhile.)

"Hullo, darling," he says, somewhere between manically cheerful and absolutely exhausted.
