A/N: Sorry for the lateness, for those that haven't heard, my city was recently hit by a large earthquake and the clean-up and repairs to our house have taken a while. Thankfully, through a combinations of luck, timing, luck, building codes, luck, readiness and more luck, no one was killed and everyone I know was unhurt though several of my neighbour lost their houses and our house was damaged too. If you want more info,

I have to apologise also, if this chapter seems strange, half was written pre-earthquake and half was written post-quake. As it was an incredibly stressful event I can't help be afraid my writing style changed slightly, in fact there were several things taken out of this chapter because I couldn't remember what had been happening. So I'm really sorry if it's noticeable, though my beta thinks it's post-worthy. Next chapter is entirely post-quake though, so it should be better.
I have also never gone to Harvard Law School and never been accused of cheating on any exam using x-ray vision so I must also ask for suspension of disbelief if I get something wrong in that respect- but I can imagine dealing with a situation like Sophie Kent's would be unique and therefore require a unique solution.
