Oh, don't give me that look. It's the logical conclusion.

"No, no, no," Kaitlyn said. "You can't just walk in here with a plan like that and expect us not to join in!"

"Actually," Huinesoron began, but he stopped when Kaitlyn gave him a look. "Absolutely right," he said instead. "You can't expect us not to help you with this divorce idea. Er--why are you doing it, again?"

Iximaz shrugged. "Well, I've never been single-handedly responsible for a divorce before. I kind of wanted to try it."

"Why?" demanded the Elf. "What's so attractive about divorcing--" He suddenly noticed that both women were starting at him. "What?"

"He said it," Iximaz whispered to Kaitlyn. "He said the word."

"That's true," said Kaitlyn lowly, "he did. Now, what are we going to do about it?"

"About what?" asked Huinesoron.

Iximaz blushed. "Well, I mean... it is traditional..."

"What is?" demanded the Elf.

Kaitlyn sidled forward, and wrapped her arms loosely around his neck. "Why, sleeping with a married couple before trying to cause a different couple's divorce, of course," she said, and then winked. "But only if the taller half of the married couple uses the word 'attractive'."

Huinesoron eyed her, speculative and skeptical, even as he looped his own arms around her waist. "You made that up."

"Only some of it," Iximaz blurted, coming closer to then. "I mean...okay, most of it. But we've been planning this for a while, now." She rested her chin on Kaitlyn's shoulder, looking up at the make Boarder with wide eyes. "You won't ruin it, will you?"

There was a brief silence, and then the Elf smiled slowly.

"How about we try it," he said, "and you can find out?"
