What are their names? he'd once asked Simon, his first and only time at the other boy's house. And as Simon stumbled through his fish's names, Wilhelm slid his arms around his waist and kissed his neck. The memory is a fond ache now, not the sharp prod it used to be.

For almost a year, he'd kept in his domain replicas of those fish. Olle, Oski, and Felle, preserved in the glass of a fishbowl, until last spring, when he finally released them into a lake and said good bye to a lot of things he was still holding onto.

He's not the same boy he was when he got here, but even so he'd be surprised to learn how much River looks up to him.

"Wanda let me name one of her ravens Ferrari." He grins, knowing it's kind of a ridiculous name for a bird. "Okay, let's take turns."

Lowering his hand to the stone, he waits for the nearest frog to hop into his palm. When it does, he carefully cradles it close, inspecting the pattern of its spots as if he might be able to commit it to memory. He doesn't know how they're going to tell them all apart.

"I don't know how to tell if it's a boy or a girl... Um...what about...Sigge?"
