    Author Notes:

    Tardy “Alice the Matchmaker” challenge entry. [“weft” and “warp” are weaving terms,not sci fi]

    “They also have respectably wide hips, for child-bearing, you know.”

    John and Marie nodded, not wanting to waste any time with a spoken reply.

    “My ancestors have been matchmakers for hundreds of years.  I am the humble representative of that long tradition.  We have accepted our role as matchmakers, a sacred responsibility for we have been entrusted with divining fate and making it known.” Alice spoke these words with great sincerity because she knew them to be true.  She knew that sometimes she helped fate, or speeded it up, but she only did that when she knew that the fate revealed in her cards had to be wrong.

    “You are very good people.  I have taken special interest in you.  It is very hard work to find proper mates for daughters without dowries, even with the guidance of the fates.  Sometimes, a fated mate turns his back on fate and chooses another, one with more fortuitous circumstances.”

    The parents had begun to look crestfallen, so Alice spoke faster.

    “However, fate revealed itself to me and I went to the family.  The parents do not believe, but their child does.  They had chosen another but that does not matter if their child refuses.”  She had been offered four times her fee if she could get an answer that day from the Kennards.  Alice had not declined.  That was a great deal of money. Yet, she would not compromise her sacred responsibility for mere money.  In at least this instance, that was an easy moral stance for her to take, however, because she was certain that the Kennards would agree. 

    “Your daughter’s fated mate is Aloysius.”

    Marie jumped up with joy and clasped her hands to her face.  John beamed, relieved that his daughter had found such an excellent mate. Aloysius was a young handsome man from the wealthiest family in the entire area, not just their town.  He was a husband beyond what they had ever hoped.

    Tina had the best position at the door and could hear most of what was being said.

    Her sisters saw that her face had scrunched up in puzzlement.

    “Who is it?” Constance demanded.

    Tina explained, “Aloysius.”

    Hannah cried out, “No!”

    Tina looked at her sister in surprise, but heard more voices and put her ear back to the door edge to listen.

    1. Gosh, how will Bette enter this picture?! Will farmer John marry off his dowry-less-and-left-behind daughter to a WOMAN in desperation? Will Bette pretend to be a man and marry Tina to “save her honor”? Can that happen? (Yes, if it is a Spumoni story – and she can make you believe every word of it. I still think of Bette’s wolf-in-laws’ visit to Weho. How ARE they doing? Tina’s wolf father also loved her the best of all his children, just like farmer John.)

    10. Great story. This should be very interesting to see how Bette will appear here. It sounds like this takes place in a very traditional time where two women being romantically involved is probably not even a concept. I can’t wait to see where you take this.

    11. Oooooooohhhhhhhhhhh you’re back with a story that has “Chapter 1” in the title… meaning there’ll be a chapter 2… and possibly tons of further chapters… yayyyyyyyyyyyy :-))))))) Okay, now I’ll start reading… So happy to see you back, Spumoni!

    16. OK… So where are we?!? I think I am lost in spumoni’s land of Ti… Bette?? Uhm so where’s Bette?? :-) so eager to read more! Thanks for this promising chapter / story. PPS
