Part 200: Sully B

I spiced the tea with crowberry extract and a dash of mustard. Do you like it?

It's wonderful! Thank you, Sully. Did I tell you I bought this tea from a traveling merchant? It's a rare blend.

Har! You don't see many merchants selling tea in these troubled times.

But troubled times are when people need a nice cup of tea most! That's what the merchant said, anyway, and I'm inclined to agree with her.

Works for me! Let's forget about war for a bit and just have a nice chat...

Oh, yes, let's! That would be so nice! Um... So... What should we talk about? I told you everything I know about horses. I guess we could have some... girl talk?

Oooo! Does little Sumia want to confess her forbidden love?

S-Sully! Shhhhhh! Someone might hear you!

Har har! I saw right through you on that one! C'mon, we're both women of the world, right? We know which way the wind blows. And what are friends for if not to hear confession of a sultry midnight passion?!

Well it's hardly... Heh, all right, then. But you have to go first!

M-me?! But I... I mean I don't... Dammit, Sumia! That's hardly fair!

Hee hee! You're funny when you're flustered.

W-well, it doesn't matter anyway. My love life's duller than a sack of flour.

Heh, you're so shy all of a sudden! You weren't like this when we were talking about pegasi.

Yeah, but that's a HORSE! I can talk about horses all damn day. Love's just so... Er, you know? Lovey.

...Would you rather talk about horses some more, Sully?

Hell yes!
