Title: Complexity Rating: PG Length: 150 words Competitor: Buri Round/Fight: 2/D Summary: Kel pesters Buri with questions.
“Would it matter to your people?” Kel asked, idly tracing designs on Buri's skin. “That we're both women?”
Buri hesitated. “There's not one answer for that,” she said at last. “It's...”
“Complicated,” Kel finished with her. “Of course. Like everything I ask, about the K'mir.”
“We're a complex people,” Buri snapped.
“I know.” Kel kissed her temple. “I wouldn't have it any other way.”
Buri looked at her, annoyance giving way to bemused affection. “It depends on what's best for the clan,” she explained. “If a clan's numbers are dwindling, it's every woman's obligation to have babies. Other times, if there are already a a lot of children, it doesn't matter.”
Kel listened, head cocked to one side. “So depending on circumstance, your family might even approve.”
“My family?” She grinned. “They would have loved you.”

::swoons:: I love how Buri can go from annoyance to grinning so easily.

Oh, so adorable! I like Buri's explanation, and how she's quick to anger and quicker to cool.
