Griffin's notes: From Aldric's half of the cast, I'd say Garrick is my favorite. He was an academic, like myself, an organizer, like myself, and very fond of theatre, like my partner. They say that the Sheriff's Men and Aldric's Letter Brigade often declared a truce so that Garrick and Zephaniah could attend a play that none of the other men wanted to see. Zephaniah never forgave Aldric for falling asleep in the middle of Romeo and Juliet, and so Aldric was never invited on such an excursion again.

(Griffin forgot to mention how jealous Aldric would get when whenever Zeph dropped by for book club, like, "You bring a wine and cheese basket for Garrick but never for me?! D:<" --Ru)
