Ah...there really wasn't a lot of 'afterwards.' [ There was a lot of sex, Eve, like a lot of sex and a lot of things that were like sex if not actual sex. Anya wasn't kidding when she said she was insatiable. That pollen does not fuck around. ] We sort of...fell asleep together.

[ There is a wicker basket full of pastries, cookies, and a loaf of fresh bread. A small note tucked inside, the parchment strongly resembling a page from the tome, reads:
[ Anya laughed helplessly and ducked her head, her hair falling over her face; it was a little embarrassing, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little smug. ]
I think I might have done just that.
I don't think it's dumb. We're friends, we want what's best for each other, don't we?
[ It seems so forward, and Anya knows she'll stumble all over herself trying to get the words out. Her only consolation is that Gleb stumbles just as much as she does. ]
Yes, I'll try that.
Thank you, by the way, for letting me talk about everything.
[When Yule rolled around, an irritated pixie delivered a bottle of excellent Lionett Vineyards wine and an envelope to Eve. Inside the envelope was a coupon and a note.]
[Quentin hasn't really been here long enough to get anyone anything that complex or expensive. But Yvette does find a bottle of nice whiskey with a bow and a note on it outside his room.]
