Marta threw a cross at her window because spooky fog, passed out, and now Diego is confused as to what happened while he was marathoning to the nearest town to see a corpse.

Last minute editing to enter my 4th ONC:
inside a jealous familiar's head (a crow)
I was here to watch for oddities, and I found them, so I flew off to where Mamman Simbi fanned herself on her front porch. Her long languid hands slowly moved the church fans in the breeze. It was still too damn hot for vigor, although under 80 degrees. This fan was an ad for Doiron’s used tires. It’s fancy-cut giant popsicle stick curved just enough to stay in the grip of her weak hands.
Her sweet-on-her neighbor, T-Beaux, was leaning over the rails. Simbi tolerated him because he was a way to while away lonely nights. She sure hated the man interrupting her daytime peace. Of course, he said he was trying to get her to marry him and take care of his trois filles.
The daughters made it clear that they didn’t want her help. They said papa was just trying to find any excuse to get the witch to marry him. Not that they disrespected Simbi. More the community was always abuzz with their father’s not-so-subtle hints at wanting his girlfriend to settle down.
And Simbi sure as hell played the hippie for that free love angle. For all she knew, he was using his proweress to get his hands on her property. It had been the aunt-who-hated-the-family’s portion.
She was very much a never-trust-a-man type from the middle of the 20th century. Something snapped in them women.
To me, he was a cad because he kept slipping into her nest without giving her something shiney in exchange. (I think I misunderstand why humans exchange rings.)
My disgust with him as a man was only rivaled with his hatred of me as her pet.
I landed on his head and shat on the arm. He had his shirt sleeve rolled up to both hold his pack of cigarettes and to show off his forearm muscles. “Eclipse!”
He threw his clean arm up towards his head, aiming to grab me and shake me to death. I started flapping and his fingertips barely brushed my wings before he smacked the hell out of his own head. “Cott Dam, Imma peelay dat damn corbeau!”
This human is dumb. That’s the warmest my regards can get, even when he’s this damned entertaining.
“Eclipse didn’t mean to shit on you, T-Beau.” Mamman Simbi crooned. “He likes you.”
She said it so soothingly, I almost believed her. The man did calm down, and start grumbling, “Fine, but you owe me a date down to the dance hall. I need to keep an eye on Evangeline and Bernadette, as their beaus would let water in dere mud boots on a dry bank.”
“And Marie?”
“Mais, I wish dat boy of hers would knock her up so I could shotgun him into getting her out my hair!” T-Beau shot back, loud enough to where the girl in question could hear him.
“I heard dat, père!”
And that’s when the bickering between dense man and smart daughters started. They really got everything from their mère.
I settled on the porch rail and murmered, “Are you sure he’s their father?”
“A man who makes love that well isn’t easily cheated on, Eclipse.” She stretched in her free-spirited way, showing how handsome she was for a human.
“His dance display is sloppy.” I grumbled.

I yielded to temptation once again and pinched a scene from the Sword of Gideon film (much better than Munich). Within the jumbled ramblings of my chapter draft, Polanski now has the veteran commando Dov skipping rope “like a little girl” in front of Krista and Freyja, and Krista offered to buy Dov a ponytail wig to complete the look.*

Marta and Diego are about to meet up for a board game session with the orphanage kids, though Diego is only there because Teresa demanded he do his part as a “volunteer” (a.k.a his payment for lodging at the orphanage when it’s normally not allowed)
Could be a good opportunity to explore their characters, their budding bond & for Diego to discuss his findings from the previous night

The two braincells (Igorteo) are arguing about money, as usual. And being weirdos in this dynamic first draft, which needs severe direction and motivation to finish. With all of the ideas. Needs a new plot idea.
