As the title says, little talks about love. Told in conversations only. Main focus on Robert/Cora right now, might expand later.

The second day of the illness, Mr. Barrow is, if anything, even worse. When Jimmy brings his breakfast tray, he's sweating like mad in his sleep and won't rouse for anything. Jimmy sets the tray down so hard he's sure the teacup chips (and they'll laugh later, he's sure, about how much crockery this fever cost the house). Follows Nanny Barrow Gets a Kiss

When he gets back to the butler's pantry, Mrs. Hughes breaks off from her serious conversation with Mr. Carson to wave Thomas in. "Nanny Moore has taken ill, as well," she says, looking frazzled. Follows (The Very Modern) Mr. Barrow Gives Up Smoking
