the guy who be short has just left Hobbiton.
Fléin's talk with Wilhelmina had left him feeling better, but not by much. He still felt unable to trust her - the vote for Spiced Ham remained as mysterious as ever. He'd ended up not voicing his idea that perhaps, just perhaps, there were no werewolves. The zero and the assuming too much pointed to it, but... who else could be killing all these people in the night? Even he didn't believe it anymore. So he just made something up about the werewolves actually being kamuraorcs - they still hadn't left the offending party, and were filming everything for T.V. Wilhelmina had responded by setting Mr Swanky upon the nearest one before Anakron himself intervened. In the ruckus, Fléin had slipped off, uncomfortable around her presence.

Later, Panakeia going a little nutty had confused him further. One other villager, at least, was thinking along similar lines to him. But oh, how they laughed at her! He wouldn't bring that upon himself, that was for sure. He suppressed the thought further still.

So he had fallen back upon plan two. Gathering the entire village, he had forced everybody to take a seat once more for a formal accusation.

"My fellow villagers," he started a little hesitantly, but gathered stength as he continued. "My fellow innocent villagers, I believe I have some evidence that may be important - though, there's not much evidence. But I have seen - things. Disturbing things. Things that lead me to doubt the purity of some persons in our village, that lead me to doubt their honest intentions."

"I will cut to the chase. Sai and Alli are lesbians."

There was a shocked silence as all eyed turned to the girls, sat next to one another. Sai jumped out of her chair. "But this is preposterous! It's nonsense! We're not lesbians!" she said loudly. The reaction from the village was mixed. Some started laughing at Fléin, causing him to redden a little, but a few faces turned questioningly to the girls.

Mardil stood up and walked over to Alli. "Are you absolutely sure, Alli?" he asked, clearly disappointed. "I mean, look at her legs!" he said, causing Sai to scowl at him.

"Actually," Alli responded, commanding silence from the murmuring circle, "Sai can speak for herself. I am a lesbian."

There were gasps all around. "But Alli!" Aimé cried, "I thought you loved - somebody," he finished lamely.

"Aimé, the world isn't all in black and white. There are many shades of gay." And then - only Fléin was at the right angle, standing as he was, to see it - Alli wink at Aimé. What was she playing at? "And if you must know, I've taken rather a fancy to Wilhelmina."
