As I was waiting at the bar, a guy appeared next to me, and without any other introduction he jokingly said “Excuse me, this is probably going to so...nd really forward….but I’ve noticed that your wife has no pants on”….That was all he said…just that, and nothing more, as he stood next to me at the bar. It took me a few seconds to compose myself, and I thought “fuck it…why not!”. I responded by asking him how he had noticed…and he quietly told me he had been sitting minding his own business. You can just message me. You don't have to ask" All right. Deal. You may do the same." Thanks." Did you enjoy your evening?" Gary asked."No." Oh?" I slept through most of it. I wanted to come here but I was stupid and smoked some of a joint I found. I fell asleep almost immediately." LOL." Yeah, very funny." I didn't figure you for a druggie." I'm so not." Well, I'm glad you made it. I've been waiting for you."Elaine blushed harder. Thoughts swirled and typing suddenly became difficult. "Why?". When he shivered, I chuckled. All that fur and he is still cold. At any moment, a slavering monster might jump out at us and I needed an unfettered sword arm, so I was not afforded the luxury of a cloak."You should feel how cold armor gets here," I told the Muse. "Be thankful you don't have to swing a sword.Against the monsters of the Arctic, I chose a Flamefang, one of many new weapons replacing my old White Moon Axe. My wife and I had experienced a bit of prosperity since her return. Like any. " I explained.The money is a comfort blanket which means I won't have to worry about things like mortgages and electricity bills and where my next slice of bread is coming from. It won't stop me following a career or affect any of my other decisions about my life and that includes how I feel about you or my aunt or your dad." Is that what you are concerned about Katy?" Joe asked.Katy nodded her head and said very quietly, "Yes."I smiled at her," Do you remember what worried you when you heard.
