Totemo heard a noise and found that Lambda was sitting behind her watching the screen. Lambda's tongue lolled.
"No! Don't look!" she said, blushing.
Lambda ruffed.
"Really?"
She nudged Totemo with her muzzle.
"Oh, alright," she sighed.
Miss Dairy pumped her fist and said, "Yes!" (3/3) #wss366
<p>Totemo and Sunny stood together in
Totemo and Sunny stood together in Dress Nouveau and looked at a floor-to-ceiling screen. Miss Dairy had persuaded Totemo, reluctantly, to go clothes shopping after work. She made her walk through the scanner and now she was selecting outfits to dress up her avatar on the screen. (1/3) #wss366
<p>"There," Totemo whispered.
"There," Totemo whispered. "You're off the hook for tonight."
Miss Dairy looked adoringly at Totemo. "Where are we going for our anniversary?" she purred, taking Totemo's arm. (5/5)

"Sunny and I are going out for our anniversary tonight."
"Oh," he said. "Oh. I didn't know."
"I'm sorry, but Mr. Rokunai has asked me to…" Miss Dairy began.
"Nevermind," he said. "Nevermind! I didn't know you had a prior commitment. Tomorrow will be fine." He excused himself and walked away. (4/5)
<p>Miss Dairy, who had started to pack
Miss Dairy, who had started to pack up, looked pale at the prospect of spending hours re-doing the entire report.
Totemo composed her features, put on a big smile, and walked up to Miss Dairy.
"Hi, Sunny, are you ready?"
"Huh?" she said, genuinely confused.
Totemo turned to Mr. Rokunai. (3/5)
<p>Mr. Rokunai pointed at a graph.
Mr. Rokunai pointed at a graph. "I believe that what you've represented as one variable should actually be two. Could you rerun all of the analyses using two factors?"
"I'll do it first thing in the morning, Mr. Rokunai," she said.
He looked pained. "I really need it tonight, Miss Dairy!" (2/5)

<p>Miss Dairy reached into her bag and
Miss Dairy reached into her bag and pulled out another sandwich and shoved it front of Totemo.
"For me?" asked Totemo.
Miss Dairy nodded silently.
"Thank you," she said, unwrapping it.
"It's not like I bring one every day just in case you might need it!" Miss Dairy said, abruptly. (3/3)

Totemo sighed. She reminded herself to not bother trying to interact with the odd woman.
She opened her bento and realized the box was empty. She had unaccountably picked up the box from yesterday rather than the fresh one she'd made this morning. She closed it and put it back in her bag. (2/3)

#ScribesAndMakers Do you blog or journal about your work?
I write short pieces on social media and share longer pieces on my blog: https://stevendbrewer.com/
I write about more than just my writing on the blog, but select just the pieces about writing for my monthly newsletter. https://author-sdbrewer.micro.blog/subscribe/
Newsletters always seemed stupid to me, so I resisted setting one up, but finally gave in a few months ago.

#WritersCoffeeClub International Workers’ Memorial Day! How important is class or caste in your writing?
In Revin's Heart, social class is very important. Revin is a commoner who is inescapably aware of the divisions with the aristocracy. He joins pirates that are more egalitarian, but subsequently is accepted by members of the aristocracy. Rather than accepting the divisions, he works to undermine them. A follow on series, Lady Cecelia's Journey, uses a road story motif to explore further.
<p>The meeting broke up. Many people
The meeting broke up. Many people came to thank Totemo and Lambda for helping to protect the sound.
As they left, Totemo asked Lambda, "How did you know the mayor was getting kickbacks from the developers?"
Lambda's tongue lolled and she ruffed.
"Ah. Something just *smelled* funny. Got it." (3/3)
