"Oh, dear Little John," Clio grinned at his mention. "My partner is Will Stutely, and I've gotten to know the Merry Men fairly well over the last few years. Little John is so wonderful, isn't he? I'll be right back!"
Clio disappeared and fixed up some coffee, reappearing behind Ella, as they carried cake and coffee into the living room and set it all up on the coffee table. "Help yourself if you'd like," Clio said, pouring herself a coffee from the plunger and then adding some sugar to it. "One slice, Ella," Clio said to Ella who had clearly been about to just grab a bunch of cake.
"Fiiiiiinnneeeeeeee," Ella groaned, throwing their head back like Clio had just asked them to run a marathon. They grabbed a piece of cake and trotted off to draw a little at the table in the other room.
"Well now," Clio said, settling back into her chair. "Where do we start? Do you want to tell me about you, or ask me questions?"
