Snippet #2742503

Istrain gave a small nod when Birger questioned his having kissed her. He frowned slightly when Birger commented that he'd have to find a girlfriend. "Not likely," he said softly with a slight shake of his head. She obviously hadn't felt the same way given how quick she'd been to dismiss it. He smiled a bit, though, when he saw Birger put half the money into Yoranda's tip basket.

Yoranda grinned when Birger put the money in her basket. "Thanks!" she chimed before his interaction with Haera. She watched quietly, a little torn between amusement and discomfort - and, perhaps, a pang of jealousy? She'd been having so much fun laughing and joking with him, but Haera obviously took precedence. She couldn't help but to wonder whether there was something more to their relationship than friendship. Perhaps that was why Haera had been so quick to brush her kiss with Istrain under the rug and act like nothing had happened. Then again, Birger was the one who seemed to think that Haera and Istrain were going to fall in love, so what was the deal there? She quietly turned her gaze towards the basket, thinking about what she'd sing that night.
