<strong>Variani: Talking to Mira and Maschor</strong><br/><br/>Smirking, Variani listened to Mira's comeback and waited patiently for the petite girl to finish.<br/><br/>"Did you say something, doggie? All I heard was 'yip yip yip yip yip.'"<br/><br/>Variani knew Mira's sort... the attention-starved sycophant that would do anything for attention. Getting so many pairs of eyes to look at her while she read the proclamation was most likely better than sex to her. Then again, sex wasn't a good measuring stick for Variani. She had slept with a couple members of her gang, mainly out of curiosity and to keep them from constantly mooning over her. But these were boys who were not quite men, so the experience was a lot like life on the streets... brief, messy, and disappointing.<br/><br/>Then a looming presence caught Variani's attention. A large and dapper gent was standing there, not bad looking if you liked your men sleepwalking.  He silently took her arm and led her away. Variani didn't fight him, she was curious as to where they were going. Besides, better to save her strength to struggle when it mattered.<br/><br/>"So... are you this Maschor or are you a dog as well, trained to fetch his master's belongings?"<br/><br/><br/><br/>
