Waking is more of a difficult prospect than it ought to be, the fact of which Galadan refuses to become resigned.

Though today is a fine day, it seems, to begin consuming food that is slightly more civilized than raw venison (if not quite so civilized as anything deep-fried).

Thus the arrival of a guest finds Galadan cleaning up after the end of his afternoon meal.

"And should you have judged that more time was required?"

The Wolflord's eyebrow remains fully arched.

"Or, as it might happen, less?"

[mistressmaryquitecontrary]

"It is not that I would not like more time," Mary says, still startled.

"I am sure I should not be through with all you might teach me for much longer than three days -- so that does not much signify. But I am not your full-time pupil any longer. I must return to Dr. Hamm, who had not known I would be gone, and had not prepared for it.

Must she, really?

Well, so be it.

"If you deem you must, though you are right in that three days is woefully little time to see you up to speed, as it were."

Hmm. Some might consider this a quandary.

"Perhaps a series of slightly less irregular visits will allow you the opportunity of additional practice."

[mistressmaryquitecontrary]

"Additional practice would be welcome," Mary agrees, solemnly.

It is very easy, when one is in a place doing a set thing, to think only of that place, and of that thing; sometimes Mary needs to be reminded that there is a wider world out there beyond the small clinic.

"Would it be an inconvenience to you, to arrange for it?"
