"To let such emotion control and influence you so easily...you continue to fall into your own passions and desires! But perhaps, one must not contain your flame. No, perhaps one must contain the fires within you, yes?"
Fall into her passions? And desires? Key was tempted to yell after him, saying that if she'd done that she would have been doing her best to burn him to a crisp. He was safely untouched, so she was still holding back some. Probably wouldn't have mattered anyways. He seemed amused when leaving, so perhaps she was off the hook for the yelling, wait WHAT?
Her anger and the falling signs had distracted her from that last sentence, but now she was finally reacting.
No, perhaps one must contain the fires within you, yes?
Did.. that mean what she thought it meant? And he had looked at Aram. KO'd again. That health inspector continued to get the better of her. Like before, after Val's comment, she had turned into a blushing mess. Four full lives and somehow the implication of anything romantic going on ever, and she couldn't even function. How embarrassing.
"Cooking and ingredient textbook. Right. I can get that." Key's voice was high as she spoke, and she would not look towards the glutton. Hadn't she heard he'd been an incubus at one point? No wonder nothing like that fazed him. Trying to calm down her blush, she started the hunt for the textbook that Aram had asked for. Though she'd had a few days to go through everything, she'd recently put the library on a new system hoping it would make things easier to find. It didn't. And now she was having trouble remembering it.
After what seemed like forever, though, she returned with three copies. "Just in case, you know, you get one sticky. Or something. It doesn't mean anything!" And then she was gone, hiding and cursing everyone who was shipping them. Ridiculous.
