Series: Feeling is First Title: Kindling Rating: PG Event: Sharp Shooting Words: 200 Summary: Thayet will do anything for her friends. Unfortunately for her.
--
Thayet leaned her head against the front door, letting the day wash over her whilst bickering floated through from the lounge.
"Thayet! Come tell Cythera that her Tinder date is probably going to murder her."
"Cyth, your Tinder date is probably going to murder you." Thayet flopped down onto the sofa.
"At least I'm not going for death by caseload." Cythera nudged the discarded files with her toe. "When are you going to sleep, Thayet?"
"When I'm dead." Thayet smiled half-heartedly, and then genuinely as Cythera pressed a hot bowl into her hands. "Thanks. Show me your would-be murderer, so we can pick him out of a line-up."
Buri climbed over the arm of the sofa as Cythera retrieved her mobile, but was quiet as Cythera flipped through Raoul's photos.
"Wait." Thayet snatched the phone. "I met this guy today."
"Raoul?"
Thayet proffered a picture of five friends. "No, the middle one. The smirker."
"Hey, his friends are hot. You should go for his friends."
Cythera ignored Buri. "Perfect. You can be my bodyguard! We'll invite Smirker; it'll be your night off from saving the world."
"I don't know, Cyth. We didn't exactly get along."
"Who said I was asking?"

Ahhh, I adore the familiarity of climbing over arms of sofas and nudging files with toes. This is the kind of Tortall house/flat I'd want to live in.
