The Blonde Babe Chapter IX
Sarah returned to the flat with two pizzas, her mind still reeling from how stupid she was. Of course he was in love with me. He was proposing to me in the Escher room. It was a stupid proposal, but he wanted me. I knew he was doing something that I wasn't supposed to tell, but still... why? And why would he still want me after I rejected him so thoroughly?
Her train of thought was stopped by the cracked door. She dropped the pizza boxes and ran up the stairs. "Toby! Jareth!"
The horrible yellow symbols were spray painted on the windows. Jareth's work station had been upturned. "Sophie! Emily!"
Sarah looked in Jareth's room and the bathroo

Jareth considered running after Sarah, but then realized what she had done. She considers me worthy enough to protect her siblings. He felt an unusual warmth steal across what he assumed was his heart region (though he had been reliably informed that he had none).
After a few minutes in reveling in the fact that Sarah trusted him, he realized that Sophie and Emily had fallen asleep on the floor while watching the movie. Quietly he picked up Emily and placed her in Sarah's bed. Then he came back for Sophie. She woke up slightly as she was being carried.
"Where's Emmie?" Sophie asked.
"Asleep in Sarah's room which is where you are going as

I really should not find glitter this reassuring. Sarah thought as she watched the ring leader announce the acrobatic act. Toby poked his older sister in the ribs.
"What?" Sarah asked.
"Jareth is gone," Toby said.
"He needs to take a long walk off a short cliff," Sarah muttered, "If I tell you to run, you get the girls and run, got that?"
"Chill, Sarah," Toby said.
"He is such a, that was cool, such a selfish jerk," Sarah said.
Toby shrugged. "He didn't know we would be here."
"He knew I was going to be here with someone important and he just decided to ruin it for me," Sarah muttered.
"I'm trying to watch the show," Emily said.

"You stole my goblins," Rossetti said. She was sitting Jareth's chair after he had put Sarah to bed.
"I merely requested their presence," Jareth said.
"Which you cannot do," Rossetti said, "Jareth you are not the Goblin King."
"I do not need a reminder. Can you get out of my chair? I am busy solving a case," Jareth said.
Rossetti raised a slanted eyebrow. "You are matching up a bunch of books to find a book code. I believe the term is 'whoopie-de-do' kinsman."
Jareth crossed his arms. "What is wrong, Christiana? You only call me kinsman if you are dealing with the Courts."
Rossetti shrugged. "It is nothing important. Just some muttering

Soo Lin looked at Jareth warily. "What kind of... creature is he?"
"Jareth? He's a goblin... Fae... thing," Sarah said, "You've never really told me what you are."
"I am... many things," Jareth said, "I cannot harm you, Soo Lin, unless you attack Sarah. Otherwise, we are here to protect you."
Soo Lin nodded. "You saw the cipher? You know that he is coming for me."
"You've been clever. So far you have managed to avoid him," Jareth said.
"I had to finish. To finish this work. But it is only a matter of time. I know he will find me," Soo Lin said.
"Who is he? Have you met him before?" Jareth asked.
"When I was a girl, living back in China

His name was Andy Galbraith. He worked at the National Antiquities Museum. He was also desperately in love with Soo Lin Yao. Jareth recognized a fellow sufferer of unrequited love on sight. (Though he would deny such a recognition was based on his own unrequited love for a certain flatmate.)
"When was the last time you saw Ms. Yao?" Jareth asked.
"Three days ago. Here, at the museum. This morning - they told me she'd resigned. Just like that. Left her work unfinished," Andy said.
The consulting detective looked around the exhibit. His main focus was the tea pots Soo Lin was working on before she disappeared. The cups and pots were old and

Sarah said, “Remember what they told you: don’t try to be clever...”
“It is not possible for me to stop.” Jareth was adjusting his green scarf in the hallway to the front door of 221 Baker Street.
“...and please, just keep it simple and brief.” Sarah said as she began to slip on her coat. Jareth helped her.
“God forbid the star witness at the trial should come across as intelligent.”

Jareth blinked several times as he awoke. He realized that Lestrade was standing over him and yelling.
“Why are you shouting?” Jareth asked.
“BECAUSE YOU GOT HIT BY A BLOODY CAB AND ARE LYING IN THE STREET YOUR DAMN IDIOT!” Lestrade said.
Jareth sat up and rubbed his head. “Hm… I didn’t hurt the cab, did I?”
“Quick, how many fingers am I holding up?” Lestrade said.
