Chapter 12-18, Book One: Tesdes (and Kekdela)

“You!  You, come here, would you?  Come here.”

The girl grabbing Tesdes’ arm was dressed in such elaborately tailored clothes that he was surprised that she could move.  Her overvest was to her knees on one side and above her hip on the other, and closed with what had to be fifty teeny pearl buttons - and that was just one layer.

She was going to find the uniform she was carrying very boring, he thought.

That was secondary.  She was grabbing. Grabbing!  His arm.   He looked at her hand, looked at his arm, looked back at her hand.

She dropped his arm and shook her head.  “People! All right, yes, we don’t technically know each other, but you’re Tesdes, right?”

Hee! I see that Kekla has begun as she means to go on!

Indeed~!

I see Tesdes has already reciprocated. Perhaps he's not quite as shy as Kekdela reads him. Perhaps he's direly concerned about social errors? Then again, she comes across as such an extrovert, I'm surprised that it's been so long since she met someone she considered shy.

I like the bit of culture there: bringing twins and triplets to the goats in breeding season. "See, this is what you're trying for!" I have to wonder about the goats' opinions on the subject. "Are you bringing me food? Is your clothing tasty? Can I climb you?"

I was surprised that he didn’t come off shy when I went into his own head.

Glad you liked the twins thing!!
