*hums and giggles* Yes, awesome post, Westal.  I didn't have Layla hear him whispering, would just cause problems... not that she plans on listening to<em>the enemmmmy</em>xD as it is.<br/><br/>Maybe her passing out will solve the 'now or later' thing.  Cause... honestly... if he's joining... he should have sex with Layla before the 'ceremony' because so far there's nothing  for him to to join... She's a loose end, it's like tying her in instead of joining her into anything ::). He's had Aisha before [many, many, many, many, many, many times before :P]<br/><br/>*giggles* Either way, I think she's gonna make some big splashes soon... both into lives and into the water when she passes out. :P  Stress, lack of sleep, and malnutrition will do that to a<del>person</del>slave.<br/><br/>Part of me wants to make her do it right then... but I think that I know it would be more harm than good to her at this point. I don't want her to be so on edge that she messes up and ends up being rude with Aisha later on for her own insecurities.
