David had regretted signing the Better Angels up for the fashion show. He'd been on the run to help #eight girls dress & ride herd on them waiting their turn. But when the girls went out, it was worth it. Until they got the audience to demand he come out & take a bow.

I had a blast yesterday interviewing @morinotsuma for @spbu_podcast. We've been twitter friends since 2011 but this is the first time we've had an extended conversation. It won't be out for a while, but watch for it!

"I'm here," he said.
"Oh! Oh! I thought I'd lost you," she said. He felt for her in the darkness and found her hand. He followed her arm up to her shoulder, her neck, & her face. Then he found her lips with his and they clung to each other in the darkness. #FridayKiss

He slithered through wet grass, damp with early-morning dew. He followed a slight #depression, to stay out of view as he reached the crest of the hill. He wiped his eyes, peeked through the grass, & looked down on the encampment. He pulled out his journal & took notes.

A knock sounded. Velurri went to the door.
"They are here for a fitting," he said.
At the door was a #creature, tall, svelte, like an antelope, with a fabric tape measure round its neck. They bowed, then swept in followed by an entourage of goblins carrying a ball gown.

Aimee and Velurri followed the demon's young familiar through the palace.
"What are those little green guys?" Aimee asked, indicating guards.
"Goblins," said Velurri.
"And those bigger guys?"

"There's no such thing," Velurri replied.

"Cast off mooring lines," Will said.
"All hands!" Grip bellowed. "Cast off!"
The Queen rose on towlines & headed north.
"Now let's find this wayward cabin boy of ours."
"You promoted him," Grip said. "He's a master's mate now."
"You get captured, you get demoted."

A demon in a throne had a submissive, bruised young man at his side. The demon, toying with his hair, suddenly struck him to the ground.
"I'm sorry, #master," he sobbed, kneeling.
"Humans make great familiars. Don't you agree, Velurri?"
Aimee looked on with horror.
