Elunara handed John her board. "Today you're going to look like a flunky. Jitter, misspell, ask stupid questions. Don't care if you fumble the board a time or two and spend too much time trying to clean it back up." "Generally look incompetent." "Now you're getting it." She nodded. "Let's go make some rounds." "I thought you said Kelly was on the fifth."...
The next day, Elunara sighed. "Well, today I had some portraits scheduled. I'll just sit on the couch and yell for people to come in." Tulani sighed. "I'll be in my studio, so if you need anything..." "I'll be fine." Jordan went downstairs and opened the door. Jenny flushed as she stared at his bare chest. "Ah, I came to see if Elunara needed my help."...
Gerald stood on the porch, fidgeting. "Well, come in." "So, uh, its Chrissy's birthday next week and I wanted to give her something special." "Alright, I have a number of opt–" "I want one of your pictures." He blurted. "Of... me." He blushed. "Oh, Gerald... You're so damned adorable, I could eat you up." His eyes went wide. She waved a hand. "Oh, I...
"Elunara, you are a genius!" Zelinnia sighed. "Don't tell her that, it'll go to her head!" Elunara raised a hand "Someone point me at Mayby so I can whack her." They laid under the shady trees, children asleep in the center blankets. "Ugh, the only rest I get, is when Elunara comes by and forces me to sleep." Jenny sighed. "No idea how you function with...
Elunara marched down to the training yard, and finding Grogek on the sidelines, promptly climbed up his back and sat on his shoulders. "What ARE you doing?" "Trying to reclaim some normalcy." She grumped. "By sitting on my head?" "Maybe." "What has you in a funk now?" "Bradly just declared, in front of the mother of one of his friends, that I'm his...
Elunara went down into her library and started sorting her work out for the week, just in case it took too long. "So what are we going to do about Elunara?" Jordan leaned against the big bedroom door. "We can't leave her here by herself." "We'll take turns." Grogek pulled on a shirt. "I guess I'll take first round of babysitting duty." "I can HEAR you...
Renwa was standing in front of her house. "What should I do with THIS?" "Look, if I have Tyrande purify it, can I please keep it?" "We'll discuss it." He sighed. "I feel compelled to apologize to you for being so harsh. My decree still stands." "Nah. I guess I was just more shocked that you'd actually yell at me." "You do realize that you just scared ha...
She laughed and batted his hand away. "Stop picking at it." "But it itches." "Ina said it would for a few days. They had to rebuild your face. Be glad it's healing, and that you can see out of that eye now." She smacked his hand again. "I may love you as you are, but I don't love a man with self inflicted wounds." She kissed his good cheek. He wrapped h...
"It's the weirdest thing. I can't find that hand mirror anywhere." Chrissy tapped a hand to her cheek. "It was my mother's. I wouldn't have left the house with it." Zelinnia tossed her hands up. "We never did find that stupid hairbrush." Elunara and her female friends and family sat around the massive table at Tippy's. "More obnoxious, I've had two of my...
Elunara whistled as she opened the front door. She blinked. Grogek was sitting in a chair, and Jordan was leaning against the counter. Jordan snorted. "You win." "I told you." Grogek laughed. "Uh?"
