(Maybe the bar collapsed in an earthquake? I hear the drinks there were crap anyway. You're all probably better off with scirum. And now, Sexy Blue has brought a new alcoholic delight to the village, scisambucca.)
After Alain and I had discussed art till the small hours, we arose and stumbled into town. Whew, I never drink and here I am drunk again. Living in scivillage is being a bad influence on me. I asked Alain where he was staying and he seemed to get kinda dodgey about it. Like he had something to hide. Once again, my jealousy flared up. Is he staying with Sexy Blue? I told him that I had built a house for Padma who had not returned to the village for quite some time. I'm sure she wouldn't mind if he stayed there until she got back.
After seeing Alain safely to Padma's house, I decide to go visit Sexy Blue. I almost got to first base last night at Dead Man's Curve, maybe I could do better without interruptions.
When I get to her house, I find her laying in her hammock tipping back a bottle of scisambucca. I pull up a seat and pour on the charm. She tried to tell me that my new hairstyle was out of date, but I was too drunk too accept it. I kept saying "But the Fonz has a duck's ass and he's cool, ain't he?"
Kunax was creepin' by in the night. I tried the old beastmaster line, "Be careful, the tiger is fierce." But Blue wasn't quite so drunk that she didn't remember Kunax. Damn, should have used the line before she got to know him. Now it's too late.
I apologize for being such an ass the last couple of days, I don't know what came over me. I ask her how she likes her new workshop, I haven't had the chance to talk to her about it since her return.
She says it lovely and thanks me for building it. She suddenly leaps out of the hammock. "Oh, I want you to see my latest work. It's not finished yet, but you'll love it." I follow her into the workshop and she shows me her unfinished hang-glider. Somehow, while inspecting the fabric, I stumble and fall into her. We tumble into the fabric and wind up getting hopelessly tangled together.
Outside, the tiger roars in the forest. I try the beast is fierce line again. Drunkenly forgetting that I've already used it.
