Snippet #2763622

Yoranda laughed a little and nodded. "Yeah, Haera flipped her shit. I was surprised she didn't punch him, too - it totally seemed like she was going to, but instead she just stormed out, and Istrain and Haddie went after her," she said. "She totally seems a lot happier now that she and Istrain are back together. And he seems really good at... you know, defusing her. So I'm sure she's probably fine now," she said with a shrug. When he asked her about Unarelle, she smiled a bit. She didn't mind how glaringly obvious it was that he still had feelings for her sister, nor did she mind how obvious it was that Unarelle still felt the same way. "She's doing fine. She's taking really good job of me and Cletus, and the little nuggets in here that I still haven't named," she said, pointing at her own tummy.

Barynn sighed at Luther's words and shook her head. "No, no. No shoving anyone," she told him. She followed him into the restaurant and gave him a nod. "I'm glad I'm staying, too. Like I said to them... this was always my dream, and sure, some shit's happened that wasn't great, but all the best stuff has also happened here. I mean, I have my own shop, a comfortable place to live, I'm going to have a baby - oh, and the baby's dad isn't half bad, either, so I'm keeping him around," she said with a bit of a smirk. "Thank you," she said softly when he called her gorgeous, giving his hand a light squeeze.

Priscilla giggled a bit when James asked her whether he'd get to know about the dress, and she shook her head. "Of course not. If I find the dress I'm thinking about - and I know it exists, because I may or may not have seen it when Yora and Zel and I were out shopping before, because sometimes I drag them over to the ballgowns in the fancy dress shop to look - then you're definitely not seeing it until the night of the ball," she said, smirking a bit.

Zelipia burst out laughing at Osmond's reaction to her story, shaking her head a bit, and she laughed even harder when she saw Ingrid's reaction to overhearing the whole thing. "Ugh, it was not one of my proudest moments, but it always makes for a funny story," she said with a grin. "There was another girl there because...reasons...and she's moved away since then, but she says that everyone she meets always hears this story, so there are tons of people a few kingdoms over who all know the story about this guy breaking his dick - because for some reason she always words it like it's his fault, even though I'm pretty sure it's mine," she said.

Claire hesitated a moment when Vlora asked what Bastian was saying, but then started to rattle off a translation. "I trusted you, Jerome. I fucking trusted you and have put endless resources and time into working this case for you and trying to get you out of this whole mess because I thought you were telling me the truth but you've been lying to me this whole time. You absolute fucking piece of filth. You've told me time and time again that you didn't do it and you were lying right to my face, and... don't look at me like that, I'm disgusted with you right now. If you think I'm putting any further energy into working this case you are severely mistaken. I absolutely won't work with a liar. If you'd at least been honest with me we could have worked something out but instead you decided to lie to me about everything. I'll be mailing you an invoice for the work I've done that's not yet paid and you have a month to get me my money or I'll be taking legal action against you myself. Now, get the fuck out of my office and don't let me see your worthless piece of shit face ever again," she said, speaking quickly since Bastian was speaking quickly and she was trying to keep up. She could hear the elven man coming down the stairs and she immediately went silent, turning her gaze down to her work. He was definitely angry, judging by the loudness of his feet on the stairs and the way he slammed the door when he emerged from the tower.

Kyle nodded when Dev suggested going to get Hazel first. "Good idea," he said, and walked along with her. She was much nicer now than she had been when they met. He figured that was probably just her being grumpy and pregnant, for which he really couldn't fault her. He went with her and he let her handle Hazel, giving the kid a wave before she headed inside. When Dev said it was time for greasy food, he chuckled and nodded. "Yep. Greasy food. I know the best place, c'mon," he said, nodding for her to follow. "So, is greasy food your usual thing or is it just the baby talking?" he asked curiously.
