Title: Finding Out 1
Rating: PG
Length: 197 words
Competitor: Raoul
Round/Fight: 2/A
Summary: Sequel to “Renewal.” Kel talks to Buri.
It was summertime, and the ride to Pirate's Swoop, where the new Queen's Riders were in training, was pleasant. Kel found Buri on the beach, looking out at the clear, blue water as waves pounded the shore.
“I've spent some time with your husband, lately,” Kel said, after they'd exchanged greetings.
“I'm not surprised.” Buri raised an eyebrow, arms crossed over her chest. Unspoken was her question: why do you feel the need to tell me this?
Kel chose her next words carefully. “He told me that the two of you have an unconventional relationship.”
“Ah.” Buri was positively smirking at her, now. “I should have known.”
“Is it really true?” Kel asked, curiously. “He said you wouldn't mind, and I've never not trusted him.”
“It's true. If he'd be happier with you in his life, in that way...” Buri shrugged. She stood with her feet apart, bare toes digging into the sand. Her hair was unbraided, for once, and the wind caught at the dark strands and whipped them around her face. She met Kel's eyes with a look of pure joy, and Kel felt herself smiling back.

Maybe once we'd have seen it during Smackdown!
