"Another Philosopher's robe, sir?" she enquired.
"No, indeed!" replied Fionn. "Something fashionable, for the Autumn Feast; I hope I can get it made before the rush.

The assistant laughed dutifully, but rolled her eyes unobtrusively as she turned to the grey satins. How many more times would she hear that joke this month?
