Marina and Georgio have gotten awfully friendly this chapter... They are a pair that clashed HARD at first but over time have warmed up to each other. In Chapter 1 Georgio was, at best, indifferent to Marina. Ivanhoe on the other hand, is still recovering from the awkwardness of his and Marina's last encounter in Louisiana and for the first time since they met, he's giving her some much needed breathing room.
