I’m sorry but the “Luther wants to throw you a party so you feel loved” “do you feel loved?” And then the most genuinest, most wholesomest, most gorgeous smile and the little shy “yes” from Viktor has me sobbing it’s so damn cute

I commented that Five Name might be Reginald
Reginald is immortal or has a prolonged life since he's an alien, to avoid suspicion he says he's the child of himself
now multiple times, five was never addressed as Hargreaves by the commission, his nameplate just says 'five' instead of Hargreeves
now Reginald and Five are similar than most of the Umbrella Academy, they're logic and common sense are dumb that present itself as smart but end up being broken
there are so many similarities that it'd be funny if Grace named him Reginald Hargreaves the Fifth because of it, that's why he's (five) so utterly trying so hard not to associate with that name
Tumblr media
I have a friend who's name is fifth since his the fifth person in his family to have the same name, it would be funny as hell if five real name is Reginald Hargreaves the fifth
oh and also
the umbrella academy number are their names while sparrow academy numbers are their ranks
which is why the sparrows hardly care and the sparrows are more coworkers than family since they were constantly put against each other
Reginald keeps fucking them up

Yander Number Five hcs
Tumblr media
Five is a either a tunsdere or just a low ket yandere. At first
Five probably fell in love with you when you guys were teens. Then when he accidentally jumped too far he lost it when he saw your adult self dead with his family.
So during his time in the apocalypse he he hunts down things that remind him of you and search for ways to get back home.
One day while he was searching for supplies in a mall he found a manikin that looked like you. So he took it with him everywhere.
When Five eventually made it back to the "present" he ignored everyone else at Regionald's memorial. He made a bee line for you. He hugged you and didn't let you go while your mouth and the families mouths just hung open.
Somehow (your girl is too lazy to write how) Five managed to accelerate his growth and becomes your age.
Five is a possessive, manipulative, and a snarky clingy yandere.
He is more than willing to kill for you. If someone came on to you in front of him then he won't even have the decency to wait for you to leave so he can kill them.
Once he is done he is covered in blood and human bits. Five will sigh, grab you, and pretend nothing happened. If you cry or freak out while he tries to love on you covered in blood he will roll his eyes and tell you to shut up then kiss your forehead, smearing blood on you.
You tried to escape from him and leave the Hargreaves mansion after that incident but it didn't work well.
Five will guilt trip the hell out of you
"What do you mean you need space? I've been separated from you for years. And you're already trying to abandon me"
If you try to hang out with one of the other boys without him then he will be majorly possessive. He'll fight you on you having alone time. And if you somehow manage to get alone time then you better look around the corners. Because Five is more than likely watching from afar and drinking coffee
In a perfect world, where the world isn't ending, you'll be his perfect house wife
Five is very demanding and direct in letting everyone know what he wants and getting what he wants. No matter how much you argue or avoid him because of this. He will get what he wants.
Five will always be touching you in someway. Whether it be a hand on your hips to him sitting right next to you.
If he sees you hugging someone else (even his siblings) he will be pissed. You'll know that you fucked up when you see him clench his jaw, frown, and slightly clench his fists.
He will immediately pull you away and jump. Once you're both far away from anyone he tears a new one into you.
Tumblr media
"You know you belong to me! No one should be touching you, but me!" He yelled as you started to cower. Maybe once upon a time you would have argued with him, but he took away whatever backbone you had (if you had one) a long time ago Five walks towards the wall next to you and punches a giant hole in it, causing you to jump in fear. "You touch anybody who isn't me again then they'll end up dead. And you'll get a punishment" he says an walks out the door to take a breather. You slowly slide down the wall and cry. You should have known better then upset him. Its all you're why he's mad right now. (That is pure Five manipulation right there my friends)
When you guys were kids he was also very possessive of you and your time then as well. How could he not be when you're so you. And he was especially extra possessive since you were the only friend the Hargreaves children were allowed to have. Which is remarkable since you are a normal.
Delores had to break up so many fights between Five and the other children because of his clingy and possessive tendencies.
Reginald used Five's love for you as a reward and punishment. If Five acted up then he wouldn't be allowed to see you. If he was good and trained extra hard then the more he can see you.
"The more you train Five, the more time with Y/N you'll be given."
You should have picked up on his unhealthy obsession love for you when you were kids. But you just couldn't see him in that light I guess.
If you had a crush on one of his siblings then he will be ruthless to them. Especially in dueling for training.
Since he has known you as kids then he'll know basically everything about you.
He will kidnap you, especially if you keep avoiding him. His yandere tendencies with increase 10 fold when he finally gets to reunite with you again. And since you can't jump like him, you're stuck at a home he found for the two of you.
If you need something from Five when you're kidnapped then he will negotiate with you. " I get no benefits from it. So why should I get you that? What do I get in return?" Which will cause you to give into whatever he desires at that point in time. Whether it be physical or verbal acts of love, you better give him what he wants or you're not getting what you requested.
If Five has had a hard day dealing with his family (who are searching for you) then you better behave, make him coffee/food, love on him, and tell him how much you need him. Or else you're gonna receive a pisser pissy Five.
In your little house he will have all your favorite things there for you. No matter what it be, except for certain things.
If you want a console of some sort then except parental controls on it. He isn't dumb. Five isn't gonna give you something that allows you to talk to other people to get help unless it has parental controls that block that.
Five's punishments are verbal, mental, and possibly physical.
If you piss him off enough, like by trying to escape, then he might hurt you in the crossfire of his rage. Your home will be a mess and you will be on the floor crying while holding your cheek.
Or if you refuse him and his physical touches then he might lock you in a room for a couple days. Five might also say somethings about how no one can love you because you're his alone.
"No one can love you after I claim you"
If you try to butter him up with you iniating physical affection he will give you a deranged smile and hold on to you like a python. And kiss you like his life depends on it.
But Five isn't stupid, he knows you're trying to manipulate him. (Which is silly, trying to manipulate the master of manipulation.) But he will keep his deranged smile and hold you. Because you're not gonna get whatever it is out of him. You might be able to "manipulate" him into getting a book or something, but really its just a reward for you initiating physical contact. Trying to manipulate him to make your escape easy is stupid.
Tumblr media
If you do somehow escape (good luck with that, the house is basically escape-proofed, all the windows are bullet proof and painted shut, multiple locks on every door leading to the outside) then don't seek refuge with anyone you love, even the rest of the Hargreaves. Five is more than willing to kill them if it means he gets you back.
Five loves you more than anything, including coffee. Just be a good girl and love him. Or else you're gonna be in hell for a long time (better hope you get Stockholm Syndrome quickly)
Tumblr media
Will you guys please request something. Its the only thing that really gives me the push to finish writing my drafts and stuff 😭. I have a list pinned of things I write for. So please feel free to request or ask stuff.

irreplaceable by @ashyybashy
Irreplaceable: part one
paring: five hargreaves x reader
warning: cursing, drugs, alcohol, overdoses, violence, death, knives, blood, blood pact, and five and reader are aged up to 19.
prologue
Tumblr media
You step out of your taxi and stare up at the horrid building you thought you’d never come across again. A growing pit in your stomach as you thought of the horrors that your favorite unstable family had experienced.
Your father. You loved him more than anything. He was all you had. Your mother had passed from child birth and your father gave you the world. He was more than you could ever ask for.
You take a step inside the building with a small sigh and look around to see if anything had changed. Nope, still the same. You knew that Reginald was no stickler for change.
Every single thing reminds you of Five. Everything. You never stopped thinking of him. Never fell out of love- I mean who could? He was perfect. Not only was he your- what was he? I mean you two never made anything official, but you sure did do things that people did when they date. You knew he loved you and he was your best friend. A piece of your heart died that way. And no one can fix it.
You were on your way to Five’s room, because you know…fuck it. You were never gonna move on so why did it matter? On your way you came across Alison and Vanya. Once they noticed you, you gave a small smile and wave. “Y/N? Oh god-“ Alison gaped and pulled you into a warm hug. “It’s been forever- you grew up so beautiful-“ Vanya cut her off. “It’s truly great to see you…but, why didn’t you ever come back?” She said quietly yet you knew that she was upset. You don’t blame her. You left her there alone with that terrible man. “I’m sorry Vanya. I thought it could help…” Vanya let out a small breath and walked away. “We missed you.” Alison reassured you before walking off.
Your hands grasp the door hands and slowly turn it and push the door open. Your stomach churned and you closed your eyes before walking in and shutting the door behind you. You sat down on the edge of his bed and looked around. God, so many memories here. Good and bad you cherished them all. If he wasn’t dead…did he still think of you? Did everything remind him of you? Did he still care? Multiple thoughts were running through your head. Maybe you can take a small nap to clear your head. You lay down on his bed, holding one of his pillows to your chest and burring your face in it as your eyes got heavy.
The room and bed began to shake and that made you jolt off the bed and to the window. You saw everyone out there and immediately rushed as fast as you could down there and outside. Once you did you rushed toward them. “Anyone else see a little number five- Y/N!” You heard klaus, but your eyes were locked on the boy in front of you. Your throat closed, mind hazy, and your eyes got droopy as your body weight had fallen back onto the nearest person. That happened too be Deigo.
Your eyes snapped open when you realized you were in the infirmary. You slowly sat up and rubbed your eyes before zoning out on a random spot on the wall for a minute before getting up. You looked down and saw it. Your clothes were much bigger than before. You looked in the nearest mirror and let out the loudest blood curdling scream ever. You were 19 again.
The whole fam rushed in the room- including five. You knew exactly what happened. “Honey- it’s okay!” Alison tried to calm you down. “Honey?! I’m not a kid! I’m 31!” You freaked out and your hands flew to your face before your eyes spotted Five and widened. He muttered something inaudible with the same look as you. It didn’t take long for you to spin around but he caught your arm just in time. “Y/N.” He struggles to keep you still so he spatial jumped to his room.
He shut the door and locked it. You backed up into the foot of his bed. You narrowed your eyes at the familiar figure. You both stared at each other. I mean what do you do when your ex-situationship shows up after being missing for 17 years? You finally broke the silence with a stern,
“What the hell.” You utter as you watch him walk to his closet and open doors and sigh seeing the only options of clothing he had. “Long story.” He responds to your statement. You made a face as you sat at the chair by his desk. “I have time.” You stated clearly as you glanced at all the dusty old binders and tapped your fingers on the wood.
He grabbed the familiar outfit from his wardrobe and placed it on his bed with a deep breath as he loosened his tie. You raised your brows and turned your head away, “Where’s the warning?” you groaned at him. “Not like you haven’t seen it before.” You rolled your eyes at his response.
‘So Five of him to say’ You thought, you missed him. I mean you miss the old him. You have no clue who this Five is. He’d grown up, you don’t know him anymore.
After Five finished getting dressed he sat on her bed. “How come you look like you’re 18?” He asked with his brows furrowed in confusion as she grimaced looking down at her youth form. “Blood pact.” He made a face. Blood pact? “Remember?”
The sun shone down on the duo as they sat underneath the tree. Five held the book between them as they took turns reading each paragraph on the page. Your father had meeting with his, in which included you having to hang around the mansion. This was a usual thing that has happened for as long as you could remember so obviously you had gotten close with the academy. “Wanna do something fun?” You nudged Five where he raised a brow and nodded “What?” You reached in your pocket and pulled out a small pocket knife. He grimaced at the knife. “We should make a blood pact, that me and you will be best friends forever.” You smile widely at him. “You and I.” He corrected as she groaned and rolled her eyes. “Wanna do it or not?” “Sure.”
So that was why you looked 19. “Why do you still look 19?” You asked him, turning around to look at him directly. You watch as he took a deep breath and sighed. “Guess what I found when I jumped to the future….nothing.”
You had a growing pit in your stomach. It hurt that he hurt. You truly cared for him. He didn’t deserve that kind of pain and more trauma on his shoulders. You stood next to Vanya as the rain poured and the funeral began.
“Whenever you’re ready, dear boy.”
Pogo’s voice brought you out of your daze. You couldn’t stop glancing at him. You wished he’d just look at you. For as long as you’d known him you’d beg for him to love you. It’s a huge reason why you two were never official. God, Your at it again.
Luther turned the urn in which the ashes pathetically fell to a clumpy pile at his feet. “Probably would’ve been better with some wind.” Klaus stiffened as he felt Pogo’s glare. Pogo cleared his throat and spoke, “Would anyone wish to speak?” No one spoke. Therefore Pogo began to speak once more, “Very well. In all regards, Reginald Hargreaves made me the creature I am today. For that alone, I shall forever be in his debt. He was my friend, and my master, and I shall miss him very much. He was a…..a complicated man-“
Deigo’s voice cut him off and you just knew the funeral might as well be done with. You sighed and shot Vanya a tight lipped smile before walking back inside. You walked past Klaus and Five and you seriously couldn’t help but throw Five a glance. To much shock the second you did his eyes were already on yours.
This is gonna be a hell of a ride.
____________
i know that vanya is viktor but he’s not viktor just yet and i want his transformation to still be his transformation.

I feel like there's one umbrella academy friendship that almost NOBODY talks about and it needs to be addressed. That pair is grace and pogo. And don't even try to tell me they aren't besties because they are. Aren't human, check, care for the Hargreaves kids as their own, check, don't necessarily like Reginald but feel obligated to like him, FUCKING CHECK. I'm right, I'm fucking right.

basically the kids like dr. strange magic/ability wise
ok I'm realizing how long this is getting, but anyways: y/n knows wtf happened with 5 and like splits up Diego an Luther's fight bc y/n basically became this mastermind of like time (this is basically my oc by this point) anygays
I'm giving you full range on the rest:3
...GOOD LUCK-
oOooo I love the umbrella Academy keep the umbrella Academy request coming guys :D I am also honored I'm the first person you did an ask for ☺️
Type: fluff
Pronouns: he/him
Trigger warnings: drug use cursing (I mean come on it is the umbrella Academy) Minor spoilers for S1 ep1
The Hargreaves x platonic!younger! Male! Reader
On October 1st 1989 43 women around the world got pregnant the only thing peculiar about this is that none of the women were pregnant the day before. Reginald Hargreaves went on a search to find and collect all of them. He got 8.
Sadly number Five and number 8 went missing over that time number 8 realised he had powers he could control time with a flick of his wrist and he could also move objects with his mind
It had been 13 year's since the pair went missing and they're siblings had to live with two chairs empty every morning and night until they moved out and then
Their father died
Now five and eight had found a way back into their timeline but somethin had went wrong five had miscalculated and and they were stuck in their 13 year old bodies again. Which sucked ass if you asked 8
As soo as the funeral service had started all seven siblings gathered around along with their mother and chimp butler named pogo. They watched as number one or Luther as their mother named him dumped his ashes into a sad clump of bones. Pogo asked if anyone had any last words and as always diego or number two wanted to pick a fight with Luther. So they did diego went on and on and on about their father couldn't even name them and other thing 8 couldn't care for so he rolled his eyes at the immaturity of it all.
Luther finally snapped as he predicted and as they were fighting five nudged eight to use his powers. So he did covered the two in a black smokey outline and pushed them apart, and spat at the two "stop acting like children your in you fucking 30s get it the fuck together before you break something." all of them looked surprised at their brother's hostility as he was always the nicer one of the eight. Eight just rolled his eyes and walked into the house with five and Klaus not far behind.

On a random wikidive and found out that Alice Liddel - the girl who supposedly inspired the titular Alice of 'Alice in Wonderland' - married a man named Reginald Hargreaves.
Cue my lunatic fucking brain remembering Reginald Hargreeves in Umbrella Academy and his mysterious fucking wife, and me impulsively going 'oh wait are we going to find out she's legit Alice because he's legit that historical Reginald?'

The Umbrella Academy season 3 was really fun! I enjoyed it. Thoughts under the cut. Very slight spoilers, but nothing too big. Kept things vague.
Tumblr media
Still had a lot of issues with Victor's character, just different ways. In the first two seasons I really disliked him, and this season I felt he was called out for some of the stuff that happened before, but I'm coming out feeling very 'whatever' towards him now.
As a cis person I can't speak much on the trans storyline and how authentic it feels, but I liked how casual it was. I like how the rest of the family just rolled with it; it was just 'this is how it is, Victor is Victor' and that's that. I'm glad the writers chose to do that rather than hire someone else to play the character, and that Elliot Page chose to stay. I don't know if this was intentional, but the fact that Elliot kept the voice the same rather than deepening it? I found that to be a really cool detail of someone who's clearly in the beginning stages of their transition. I wonder if next season his voice will be deeper?
Diego and Klaus are still my faves, but while Diego actually feels like he's progressing in his character arc, Klaus, at least character wise, is starting to feel stagnant. His powers being explored was fun and interesting, but I hope we can see him actually start to deal with his inner demons in the next season. There's a risk he could potentially become just a characteracture rather than an actual character if they keep just doing what they're doing.
I can't stop imagining the season with Umbrella Ben and Sparrows Ben in the same room and Umbrella Ben just getting annoyed at this dick. 😂
Lila and Diego are the best. I will elaborate no further. Their entire storyline had me screaming into my pillow. I would watch an entire show just about them bickering. Lila remains my favourite character. I just want to hug her, but she'd probably stab me (I'd let her).
Luther, I actually enjoyed his storyline this season. He deserves the whole world. And his scenes with Sloane were very sweet, if not a bit cheesy. But sweet.
Five, don't have a lot to say about him. Other than he needs to get his siblings into an group chat so he can communicate with them. 😭
Allison, I've never liked her more. I've always liked her, but I liked her so much more this season. I know what she did was fucked, but it was also so interesting. Watching her get pushed further and further until she broke, and for good reason too. Her grief and rage over what she's lost. I definitely don't think she was a good person this season (that scene with her and Luther was a very low point, and there's no defending that 😬) but you still understand where she's coming from (mostly, again, that scene with her and Luther).
The Sparrows weren't that interesting. I'll admit I was a little worried with how they were going to handle it, but I think they did the right thing. A lot of shows make a mistake of putting in too many characters because they don't know what to do with the ones they still have, and I'm glad that TUA didn't do that. Fei's powers were so cool, though.
Finally, Reginald Hargreaves is insane. 😭
I can't wait for next season.

Not a one of you has made an Umbrella Academy Star Wars AU with Hargreaves as Palpatine the siblings as inquisitors, and frankly I am disappointed beyond measure. Like I’m not gonna write it, but damn. it should exist.
Start right after Palpatine's (Reginald's) death, and show all of them scrambling to figure out what to do in the wake of the Empire. Everyone but Luther has escaped already, at that point—Diego ran off to become a solider in the Rebellion; Allison became a socialite and holo star on some core world under a different name; Klaus became a spice user and smuggler to cope with his psychometry and visions; Ben's the fucking Force Ghost that only shows up for Klaus; Five was missing on Mortis for years after running ahead during a pilot exercise, before eventually escaping and falling in with Dark Woman; Viktor fell wayyy too far to the darkside and became a threat to Reggie's seat of power, and so got force-suggested and doused in force nullifiers.
No one else knows they used to be inquisitors, and all of them individually rush to scrub the Emperor's records of them. And then oh hey there's The Fifth Brother standing there like he hasn't been missing since they were 13, and what the fuck do you mean the personifications of the Force you hung around for years said that the galaxy is going to end in eight days. Why are there mercenaries coming after you. Why is there a sort-of-ex-Jedi trying to murder you.
Like, c'mon. They're all already known by numbers for names. All of their powers canonically exist in the Star Wars universe (Luther can channel the Force to exponentially boost his physical abilities, Diego can guide projectiles and has killer spacial awareness, Allison can force-suggest anyone, Klaus is self-explanatory, teleporting with the Force is already a thing, Sith creatures are fucking weird, and Viktor's thing is just really really intense telekinesis).

Things I've learned about Tua (but never actually watched the show)
Diego loves knives, he somehow got promoted from pretty boy to dilf
Luther
Viktor is the trans one and... Uh... I think from what I'm seeing he is becoming more plot relevant?
Five is the fandoms favorite. He looks like a kid but is secretly a boomer also apparently he has no more fucks to give
There is someone called Reginald Hargreaves who's an asshole for many reasons but I don't know them
Klaus is also the favorite He died I think but came back also did he die multiple times? Anyways he can see ghosts but no one listen to him and I guess they should
There's a gang called the sparrows and I think they are ennemies with the others oh also Five and Cie are some kind of a family but yeah the sparrows are bad maybe it's a family battle thing like Romeo and Juliet
There is someone named Allison I think?
And that is All.

A STUDY IN SCARLET
Tumblr media
Jacob looked again at the note that the mysterious woman in the scarlet dress had handed to the judge. Mangled Mermaid at Billingsgate Docks. He had been here once and didn't remember this visit as the most amazing one. The liquor was mostly beer without gas and gin that ate at the insides with its power. The ladies left much to be desired, and the wasted sailors, often not only with alcoholic beverages, were looking for a provocation in absolutely everyone.
However, he went inside, not wasting time wondering why the woman wanted to meet here. It occurred to him that she didn't look like a prostitute, and she didn't look like a brothel-keeper either.
It seemed to him that he'd seen her in a theater once, in one of the many plays he'd crept into out of boredom — and Evie always said he wasn't a man of culture.
He felt the gaze of the woman behind the counter on him. When he looked back at her, he saw the woman pull the picture out of her corset, then look at him and then the picture.
She whistled in his direction and showed him a four on her fingers as her gaze turned to the stairs.
He nodded and made his way through the drunken men, past the brawl that was taking place right outside the bar.
It was extremely quiet upstairs. It's as if all the employees have evaporated along with the customers. And although he saw them outside, despite the terrible, freezing rain, he did not expect them all to be out.
He went to door number four. He put his ear to the door to try to hear what was going on inside. Silence again. However, the eagle's gaze told him the presence of two people. And they weren't the enemies.
He opened the door. The woman and man turned to him. The woman who bet on his fight and gave the message to the referee, and Sergeant Reginald Hargreaves, a friend of Frederick Abberline at Scotland Yard. They had a chance to exchange two words when Jacob was passing by to visit Freddie.
"Good evening, Mr. Frye."
"Is that a joke? We couldn't meet at the police station, but at the brothel?"
He closed the door behind him. The woman's look told him that, heavy against his skin like a lead ball.
"We might, if not," he grunted, putting his hands behind his back and straightening up, "our little arbitrariness."
"Our?"
"Mine and Miss Seymour's." He pointed at the woman. "We're investigating a pervert milieu that buys child sex services. Actually, I'm investigating… And I'm helping Miss Seymour a bit."
"What does it mean?"
The woman moved her hand, ordering him to follow her. They stood at a table on which lay a very detailed sketch of a young girl in a striped shirt and a once-white apron. Her hair was short and unstyled. Facial features thin, but… extremely attractive.
"This girl came out of the Home for Wayward Youth on Houndsditch in the City of London a few days ago. On her way to the pharmacist, she met Pris Witless, whom she went to, and has not been heard from since. Pris denies that she did anything to her. The girl just left without a word and is now probably wandering around London."
"She has memory lapses that she can't come back?"
"So much so that she often forgets her own name," she confirmed, and Jacob could hear an unimaginable heaviness in her voice. "In addition, under the influence of strong emotions, mainly stress, she falls into a state resembling a psychotic attack. She could get into big trouble. She also could have hurt herself unintentionally."
"And why am I in all this?"
"You're much more mobile than we are," Hargreaves said. "You are able to climb to the rooftops and find Miss Alice more quickly that way. And then make sure nothing happens to her."
"Can't I escort her straight to the orphanage?"
Seymour shook her head.
"She's looking for the culprit of the fire that killed her family eleven years ago, and she needs her own reality to piece together her memories. And this manifests itself in sleepwalking. She's tried it before at Rutledge Asylum, but to no avail, and Doctor fucking Bumby won't let her traumatic memories be retained, so she can't do it at the orphanage."
Miss Seymour seemed to have a rather unflattering opinion of the director of the orphanage. Jacob wondered why that was.
"At any rate, she will be, or already is, walking through her reality, wandering the streets, and for my peace of mind, I'd like you to look after her. Freddie said you could be trusted, and you'd do a great job on this assignment."
Jacob's eyes ran across her face. She looked seriously worried and desperate.
And he, actually, was currently unemployed anyway. Since the Blighters were broken, Starrick defeated, and Evie left for India with Henry Green, the frequency of his missions had been reduced to a minimum.
"I have much to offer you, Mr. Frye. I know everyone has their price and…"
"I don't want money, Miss Seymour."
She straightened up and glared at him.
"So what?"
"You're worried about that girl. I want to know who is she to you?"
Even Hargreaves himself wasn't entirely sure. He knew they met when Seymour was a teenager and Alice Liddell was six. And that was basically it.
"We're not related by blood," she said, wondering for a moment what she really meant to say, "but she's like a daughter to me. And I want her to be as safe as possible in this extremely dangerous process."
Jacob had people all over London. Plus, he could watch her himself, and it's all for justice.
He extended his hand towards the woman. She grabbed it tightly.
"It's a deal, Miss Seymour."
"You don't even know how much your help means to me in this case, Mr. Frye."
"I don't know, it's a fact. But you can be sure I won't let hurt her."
They shook each other's hands. And after a while, Jacob went to tell the Rooks that they had a new, very important work to do.
