"Th-thank you, sir, for interrupting when you did," said Wellard.

Horatio, uncomfortable, ducked his head, and said, "Think not on it." His conscience pained him, and he looked straight at Wellard. "It is really Arch—Mr. Kennedy whom you should thank."

Wellard blushed crimson. "Yes, sir," he said, "well, I tried, sir, but I think he didn't take it right. He said he didn't do enough. He favors you so; I’m sure if you tell him, he'll believe."

Wellard looked earnestly at Horatio, and Horatio thanked Providence Wellard’s clear eyes, which saw so much, were matched with loyalty and discretion.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. I always write Wellard as stammering and kind of clueless, so I thought I'd drop the cluelessness for this one.

Wellard would notice, too ... When you're the downtrodden one, you always get insanely sensitive to the moods and expressions of the people around you. Wellard would definitely notice -- and his loyalty to the two of them would be absolutely airtight. Veddy nice. :-)

Dear little Wellard, he's so darling and so unfailingly loyal in his hero worship to those two. It's lovely.

Aww...pets Wellard, then pets Horatio. Hell, I'll just pet all of 'em.

That last line was especially lovely. Thanks for sharing this.

Glad you like that, because the last line was the part I liked least. I like the I just wrote better =).
