[I don't want to go back there either.

He manages a smile.]

There are houses.

Bit more suitable for a pair of officers, really.

[simplestgift]

[He picks up the quiet signal and relaxes.] Very well. You find us a nice little house and we can move in the moment I'm cleared for it.

[captainhornblower]

[He smiled a little more and nodded.]

I will.

[A chuckle.]

I hope Miss Jilly will not be too cross about the painting on the wall. It is a shame to leave that.

[But a neccesary sacrifice.]

[simplestgift]

Perhaps she could paint another.

[captainhornblower]

If she's agreeable to it, I think that's a capital idea.

[simplestgift]

You could have input this time, Mr Hornblower.

[captainhornblower]

It'd be nice, I think.

Hopefully she won't mind having to redo all that work.

[simplestgift]

There's only one way to know. [He fumbles for his Button of Making Pain Go Away and presses it.]
