A Thought Experiment

Good, she had read his mercurial moods correctly and had successful pulled him out, the crease of his brow and the way he had looked just then a good tell, as much as he would hide them, she had know Rene for a much of her life, and clueless though she may be at times, she was adept at reading the only other man in her life that was like a brother to her. If I ever do throw my future away I promise I will make it be such an epic tale that bards centuries from now will sing of it.

She slid off the fainting chair and came to sit on the floor beside his legs, leaning her head over on his knee as he talked. She liked when Rene would teach her things, in the form of rapid fire questions and answers. Hmm, It's almost as if once one understands one, two, three, four, then all of the rest of life opens up into a variable feast for the mind. How one much feed the mind as well as rhe body.

Her stomach growled then, as if on cue, right as she had gotten comfortable there on the floor. Her eyes narrowed a bit as she thought about what a treasonous stomach she had, before she sighed. Is Madame Jardain's still open? I could do for a late tea set. She would extend the offer to him for a light meal out, and if he declined she'd see herself back off home so she didn't over extend her stay. Between the rain and the chill of the early evening though, it probably wouldn't do to try an outing.
