Diary: Page Thirty-three
Sep. 1st, 2006 11:59 amWell, that went all right. I brought too much Port and Jungle Vine wine, and I don’t think I was charging enough, but I didn’t run out and I only spilled two drinks! I just wish they hadn’t been the Mead.
I’m very glad Nastasya went to get water for me though. I’ve never heard it asked for, and then three times the first night I’m serving! Oh well.
It was very nice of Kharak to escort me through Booty Bay, nicer still to know that Adjani understands. Sweet word, pretty flowers, and gentleman’s charm, nothing more.
Except… is he really looking for someone for me? I’m still not quite certain how to respond to that. Adjani’s right though: if nothing else I could have a new friend. The whole idea though, it brings back that betrayal feeling I got when Undel wanted to start dating, only a little worse, because the hurting feeling from that joke hasn’t quite gone away and they seem to be connected.
I can worry about that later, though. Right now I need to worry about tea parties and murders and witchdoctors. And more than likely trying to get Undel to do something she doesn’t want to do. I wonder if she’d accept a scorpid or something in trade if I could get Kharak or Tabaqui to catch and tame me one…
