[fighting_mad]

Dinner over with, the sky outside dark and filled with stars, Plourr is sprawled across the sofa, her feet in Rial's lap. "I don't know how the idiot ever thought it was a good idea."

Dr. Wilen chooses that opportune moment to breeze in. "And how are we doing -- here." She finishes after a brief pause in which she took in both Isplourrdacartha's expression and her ferocious grip on her husband's arm. "Steady on, Princess," she says. "Let's have a look at how things are progressing, shall we?"
