"Really?" Daniel asked, raising both eyebrows questioningly. "You must have missed the whole toilet incident of a few days back. A complete disaster. But, on the flip side, I am now a master plumber." He flexed his muscle jokingly and looked proud of himself.

Sheridan laughed heartily. "Maybe I did miss that. I've had to get up a lot earlier and leave a lot later when it comes to the troupe." She sighed. "It gets lonely having to walk all the way from Irving Hall back here when it's dark out. I get a little frightened sometimes, too; all the thugs out there. I mean, I'm barely even seventeen....how am I supposed to defend myself?"

He shrugged, "You could carry a club...but I doubt you'd be able to hide it in your dress. Dresses don't have pockets large enough. But all jokes aside, I really don't know what to tell you. If I were you, I'd be scared as hell too. I'd say hire a personal escort, but those run a bit pricey. Your best bet is probably just to keep your eyes open and not dally about when getting from place to place. Also, don't follow anyone into any alleyways," he told her with the stern tone of a father.

"I'm not a child," she snapped, then lowered her eyes. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be so harsh."

"I'm not a father either," came his quick reply. "But it doesn't mean I can't act like one sometimes." He shrugged and let her make of that what she would.

Considering what he'd said, she nodded. "True. I may not be four anymore, but sometimes I can still act like it." She watched Daniel for a moment, and then said, "You know, you should come to the Hall on Friday and see the show. We'd really appreciate it; the lady who owns the joint has been complaining about lack of audience members lately. Plus, it'll give you a chance to get out of the house. You've earned a break."

Daniel gave her a near incredulous look. "Well, I'd love to, but who's going to watch the house? I can't very well leave it alone. It might fall apart...or something equally horrendous."

"Yeah," Sheridan said quietly, nodding. "See," she continued, slapping her hand down on the counter, "that's why you don't need to be running this place by yourself. It's just too much for one person!"

"Not really. I can do it," he told her with confidence. Inwardly, he thought she was probably right, but would never admit that to her. "But if I ever get the money, I'll humour you and hire some one on."

She blew a long tendril out of her face. "You know, you can be pretty stubborn sometimes," she told him lightheartedly.
