“Why?”
“Because,” she said, rolling onto her back so that she could smile up to em. “I am also helpless before devotion, and that takes the whole of me.”

-“Thank you, my dear, in all earnestness. It makes me happy to be able to have a conversation about this.”
+She licked at eir fingertip, saying, “Thank you, my dear, in all earnestness. It makes me happy to be able to have a conversation about this.”
“Of course, May. I figure it ought to be an open topic for us.”
-She nodded and stretched out on the stage. “I would like to run this through once more,” she said, waggling the notebook at em. “And then head home to get ready for dinner, though. Debarre is coming over and I plan on flirting with him outrageously in front of you to make you as jealous as I can.”
+She nodded and stretched out on the stage. “Agreed. We can come back to it later, though. I would like to run this through once more,” she said, waggling the notebook at em. “And then head home to get ready for dinner, though. Debarre is coming over and I plan on flirting with him outrageously in front of you all night to make you as jealous as I can.”
Ey laughed and pushed at her until she sat up, sliding off the stage and walking back to eir seat. “Alright. Once more, from the top.”
