Dite's Decadent Delights, Saturday Afternoon

[spin_kick_snap]

Worried about Dante, last night Kathy had taken Ronin for a late-night walk around the island and ended up at Dite's trying to lose herself in the minutia of billing for a few hours. Her plan of 'work, then head back to Anders' was derailed by one giant puppy who still considered himself a lap dog crawling onto her while she'd been sitting on the couch in the back room. Waiting for him to fall asleep enough she could push him off her lap had resulted in Kathy falling asleep, warmed by Ronin's bulk and soothed by his even breathing.

She woke up the next morning - and twenty years later - alone. But that wasn't really anything new, was it? Not with Dante struck down fighting Urizen and Anders trapped in Thedas and and and...

Loss was nothing new, but damn was it depressing.

After a quick shower and change of clothing, Kathy spent a few minutes tidying the store. And then, unable to put it off any longer, she headed out towards the mixer.

[No OCD, but you can catch Kathy before she leaves if you want!]
