Can't a guy just get a break?

“Twice in one day, Thony?”
Even Princess Joanna's ever-patient tone sounded exasperated.
“What are you trying to do? Get Papa to keep you from ever seeing the light of day again? At this rate even Master Eswith will run out of protocol lessons.”

“Um, no...?” She'd phrased it as a question, but Thony had the feeling it was rhetorical.

“And now you're involving the servants in your pranks again?” And that was disappointment, and if there was anyone whom Thony actually cared about not disappointing, it was his eldest sister.

“It wasn't a prank! The frog just sort of... escaped. And I knocked over her bucket. And then she helped catch it.” Which was all true, if slightly out of order. And definitely gave the impression that the frog had been his to start, rather than that he had been the victim of the girl's prank.

There didn't seem to be any good way out of this one. Thony looked at his feet. The servant girl had the frog, so he couldn't even pretend he was looking at it.

Everyone in the castle tended to assume that, if there was something crazy going on, he was probably the cause of it.

To be fair, they were usually right.

And it was his honor and his privilege to liven things up a little.

Even if it did extend those interminable lessons with Master Eswith.
