"I mean... I wasn't raised Sidhe but.... "

"Adam, I don't know how much our blood does or doesn't define us, but if you feel a pull towards something, you being kinian doesn't make the pull any less real"

"Yeah." A deep breath. "And hey, if what I want is hard to get to, maybe that just is to prove I can do it. I'm worthy of it."

"Maybe, but sometimes you also have to settle for deciding if they won't take you as you are, maybe they're not so great to be among" She says

Adam appears politely unconvinced. "Maybe."

"Maybe" She nods "Anyway, I will try to remember to tell you before I let anyone else drive for the company." A pause "Though Dirk might need a job"

"Oh God no, Sally Mae, he's an asshole. People will end up in his trunk. Seriously. Can he even reach the pedals?"

"Eden can he can, though I'll have to adjust the seat later" but she laughs "I'll pass on bringing him into the fold though"

A sniffing sound..could be Connor, could be jack making a good connor impression..

Adam glances over at the door.

Jack says "Uhm.. do you need help in the kitchen? Smells like you might" from the other side of the door

Adam looks back at Sally Mae.

Sally Mae laughs softly..grabs two putting each on a paper towel , goes to the door and hands it out "one for Connor, one for you.. try not to make a mess."

Adam glances at the time. "Well. Guess I, uh, ought to get home. Thanks for talking with me, Sally Mae."

"Here.. take one of these for yourself" She hands him one "And.. thanks for listening. It helped"

"Thank you..... " he takes it, samples.

It's delicious like a super eclair and then some

"Mmmmm....." an orgasmic groan of pleasure and his eyes roll back in his head.

Yup. Sally Mae looks pleased

He sinks back in his chair and focuses every fiber of his being on the taste in his mouth.

"I'll have to do this recipe again" She says to herself aloud "Clearly a hit. "

Someone comes into the kitchen door.. Eden. She looks POOOPED... "Here you go..." She hands keys over

Sally Mae takes them "Good night, Eden?"

"Mmmph." Eyes closed.

"won't folks complain if I sleep on the floor?" She says and then smiles "Oh yeah, boring night nothing happened." And she pulls out some dross and money and hands it over to her.

Then gets a dessert "Oh I don't know I'm lactos..." She chomps it "I'll risk death"

Another soft groan.

Eden makes some interesting sounds as well

He's eating this slowly, catching the cream on his tongue and lapping at chocolate drizzle.

Sally Mae puts the others away "Sorry, these are for Kerri, Sylvi and Olgar"

"Mmmmmmmm......"

"ooo but I must save them..." The snake girl's forked tongue flicks out

Adam puts the last bit in his mouth and chews slowly, arms dropping out to the side and his legs under the table splaying out; he looks like a starfish having a climax.

Eden laughs a bit

He has to swallow the last bit, sad that the flavor will fade now.

Then his text goes off

his mom TXT: Hey ? You alive? We've forgoten what you look like

He doesn't rush to answer the phone; afterglow should not be dismissed, but savored.

Eventually and lethargically, he looks at his phone. Another groan, not as pleasure-filled as the others.

Eden shrugs "Off you go , Head Knight?"

Adam sighs and pushes to his feet, crossing to Sally Mae as he answers Eden, "Yeah. 'Rents want me back." He takes Sally Mae's hand. "Will you marry me?"

Sally Mae smiles "Sweet of you to ask, but I'm booked. "

"Tell you what, if I'm not hitched by 30, look me up again"

Adam looks shocked. "You're -engaged-??? When??"

"I'm not, but I am busy.. I'm not graduated YET so.." She points out

Eden wathes this "This is mighty bigamy"

"Oh....." relief ".... ok. Um. Not to ask specifics, then but how long to I wait to ask again?" He gives her a cocky grin.

"If I'm not hitched by 30, then" She says

"So 10 years?" He hazards a guess.

"Close enough yes" She says
