Oh, Ruth. These are all so wonderful and so much more than I ever expected to get from the prompt. My dear Ed, swallowing his pain and knowing that it's better not to know; Lucy, always underestimated and so much older and wiser than anyone realizes. Tebbitt always thrills me, and his understanding of how important Lambert is to her is sweet - and his relief at having Susan at a disadvantage for once was highly amusing. And Peter! Poor, silly Peter. Thank goodness he has Mary to direct him. I love the physicality and earthiness present in this one, so perfectly grounded, as Peter needed to be. Thank you!!
