Tabby was clearly enjoying the show, given how physical she was getting with me... not that I minded her affections, even in front of these strangers. "Thank you very much," I replied, sitting down next to Tabby with my legs crossed, continuing to study the couple, particularly Mai. She really seemed to enjoy herself, and I found it fascinating... and arousing. I couldn't stop myself from leaning forward a bit, clasping my hands together and trying to hide it. Oh, Tabby would probably notice the subtle signs, but I wouldn't mind that.<br/><br/>Well, I'd broken the ice. It was a fine first step, but now that the introductions were over I was in more awkward territory. Hopefully the two of us would be able to get our answers without looking like idiots. I sigh slightly. Why be afraid of looking like an idiot to two people I'd probably never see again. Getting worried about it was pointless.<br/><br/>I quickly looked back up to Madeleine, then to Tabby, gladly letting her take the first question and hoping that it had distracted everyone from my little bit of zoning out and getting lost in my own thoughts.
