I'd like to be a little brother! And I already know how to tie my shoelaces.
I remember when I was first learning, I had the brilliant idea of going to bed with my shoes on. I mean, why go to all the trouble of undoing them and doing them up all over again in the morning? I went to bed feeling very clever and wondering why no one had thought of that. In the morning, got up in my pyjamas, with my shoes on, and Mum was so impressed. "Oh, my clever Vila! You tied them all by yourself!" But I'm too honest--I know that seems odd in a thief, but I don't like lying--so I said I'd gone to bed in my shoes, and she was horrified. I didn't do it again. Though sometimes I've worn my socks to bed--and for that matter a few clothes--in case I have to get up in a hurry.
Ah. So the country was just part of the package. I think a few people have made a play for Servalan, but I suspect she eats her mates, like that spider.
