[ Gilbert, paralyzed by indecision. Alice, paralyzed by some unimaginable fear of her big sister, although Sharon certainly couldn't fathom what it was that had her so nervous. But she knew Gilbert had gone to Oz, as was only understandable, and Alice was likely also with Oz, and she had thought that she would have seen Break before now.
Or, at least the childish part of her had hoped to see Break before now, while the future duchess half of her had suspected he'd speak with her grandmother first. It's fine. She's not a child any longer, and although she's not thrilled with Break at the moment, that she can feel emotions towards him that aren't grief and regret-- that means something.
And with two of the three suspects successfully cleared, she raises her voice from within the parlor. ]
