. Desna did something that Desna had not done in many years. It had been seeing a nobleman on her homeworld of Triskellion, whipping a slave for not b...owing swiftly enough. The blood had not distressed the eleven year old, nor had the cries of pain. Rather, it was a simple calculation that that slave, her father, would go back to the cane-yards to drag up shooka root, which would be processed to make promethium. That whipping would leave him bed ridden for a day, or two. He could, daily, drag up. I looked at the group of girls and saw the brunette standing but it was the somewhat chubby blonde who attracted my attention.We stepped on the group and I went to stand next to the blonde: "Hello" I said a bit shyly and looked at her with a smile. "What is your name?" I asked as awkwardly as possible.When Trudy and Anja wanted to walk out, Gijs showed his most charming side and helped the ladies in their coat "We drink something with me" he asked.A few minutes after drinking we also liked and. Show me those skills you keep bragging about.Gohei: So who is it, some country nobody that wants to be rust on my sword--(They catch sight of Sanosuke.)Kihei and Gohei: Za-za-za-Zanza??Sanosuke: Who the hell are you?(A frozen moment.)Gohei: You mean you don't remember us?Kihei: We hired you to fight Battousai!(See volumes 1 and 2.)Sanosuke: Oh, right. What was that, four and a half years ago?Kihei: It was only six months! (Four and a half years?)Sanosuke: They ran you out of Tokyo, and now. "I'm sorry! It was a mistake, it was a joke. OK? Fuck, Allan, what do I have to do?"And she rang off.I sat down heavily. All my anger had dissipated. Once again that anger had risen in me. Once again I had gone off at the deep end and if I did it much more it would drown what relationship we had. Now I recalled the photo's and the videos. All that love. Was that why I got so angry? That it had all been taken away, ruined? What did she say?'This is inside you. I did what any wife would do. What.
