"So...here you both are now. What are your plans?"

"Well.....it's been a wonderfully interesting day...."

"But I keep thinking about my two friends..."

"...and how I didn't show up for work today. Without a word."

"I disappeared into thin air. Literally. Without a word of explanation."

"Well....I can send you back....."

"I can send you back to before you meet Baron..... and you would lose all memory of him....and of being here.....and you could carry on with your old life....as if nothing has happened."

Baron took her hand as she leaned in to whisper to him....."She's kidding, right?"

"Can she really do that??"

"YES!!"

"Yes...I can!!"

"Mother!!"

"You....you have wings!?!?"

No! There must be another option! Naomi cant go back and forget Baron and what has happened! Miho must offer multiple choice! Thats option A...not too attractive of an option. Naomi should be able to return with her memory. To explain to her friends however crazy it may sound to them. Or she could tell her friends she is relocating to another country even and give them the business to support themselves. Another option....royals need dressers, ladies of the chamber, ladies in waiting....her friends could chuck it all and go back with her to Baron's time...heck he may have some attractive knight friends for them. LOL. There has to be more options for Naomi. Baron could not let her go back and forget him! Meeting all over again would mean explanations repeated....Miho must have other options to choose from...Please.

Miho said she "can" send her back with no memory of Baron, but she never said it was the only option. So we'll see.

This episode is priceless! Miho in all of her Queen of the Fairies splendor and Baron's eyes rolled up "Mother!" reaction is perfect!! Love it!

Thanks. These final scenes have some of the best 'expressions' of the entire story. I found I was getting better and better at the posing - which happens when one does this for months straight - and finally at the end I started changing eye positions as well. For the conversations at this dinner, I had the advantage of pretty much knowing what they were going to be talking about, so I tried to anticipate in advance what I might need. I spent three whole days shooting almost 200 photos so there'd be lots of choice when I needed a particular expression.

Yes, even though Baron loves his Mother, he knows she can be a bit of a 'Drama Queen', and I'm sure he's hoping her sudden defensive attitude doesn't scare Naomi off.

I have been thinking about this exchange. I think Naomi should beg pardon of the Queen for that "She's kidding, right" comment. I know Baron has not proposed but the fact that she is there transported by true loves kiss is kind of a hint that Miho is her potential Mother in-law. if she could be brought there it stands to reason she could be sent back. Why would wings be a shock knowing that she is Queen of the Fairies and of all the magic she has experienced? Naomi needss to apologize for her question and lack of respect to royalty. This is just my take on the situation....what I would do in her place.

It's great that you are so enthusiastically emersed in the story, however the ending was shot a month ago, and I can neither go back and reshoot anything, nor am I going to give anything away. It will be what it will be, and I think you will be happy with it.

I hope I did not offend. I never meant to imply that you should reshoot anything. I love your stories, characters, photography, dolls and fashions. In this crazy world each morning I look forward to seeing what happens next in the story. I myself love to write fictional fantasy stories as a hobby. I cant control the craziness in the world or in my own life so I control characters on paper. I am in to character development. I love your story and I am sure I will be happy with the outcome. I guess I got carried away....I am sorry.

It's great you have such a vivid imagination, it's just that we tend to think much the same, analyzing the details, and considering all the possibilities, so I couldn't respond without it feeling like I was giving away where I was already heading.

And I had already started shooting an Epilogue to tie up more loose ends. But I won't be posting that right away.

I took the "Mother" as meaning, "no Mother, please don't do that." I don't realize he meant simply Mother stop being dramatic.

In either case, it was a powerful scene. Naomi is facing a difficult choice.

Either meaning would be appropriate, and would do.
