I don't know what to say except do as she said and look at the individual words in the text, not just the information conveyed by the surface of the sentence. Ya, I'm an English meanie too.

I figured out they were partners almost immediately after Hexe started posting.
Hint: partners live in the same geographical region quite often.
Big hint down the road apiece: who offered what kind of party favors on the BasherBabeBus?
Also I thought it was pretty funny that they both responded to Ebug's "What Are You Like In Bed?" As I recall, they both managed to complain just a little bit about the other one and maybe defend their own sleeping habits against the usual slanders. Very fun.
Go get em, eee.
PS Hexe: I meant to comment on the fun secret passages. When I was a kid I had a hobby of designing my future dream houses on my dad's graph paper (math guy, taught me to draw em to scale). Well, I had to have a canopy bed, a bay window seat with a secret compartment, and the essential Secret Staircase in every master bedroom plan--and of course a sunken tub in the bath...
