(Greetings All,

I know I'm late again. It was a heck of a day, well two actually since it's 5 here.

But this is my reply.)

“You’re too paranoid Nick. She’s having dinner with her family; she’s not interested in us.” I pat my friend’s hand but he just grumbles and flashes his eyes at the suggestion.

“That’s what she wants you to think, it’s insidious and clever!” Nick snarled discontentedly. Shaking my head I turned to the Kikimora who’d approached to inquire about drinks.

“I’ll have a dark stout, and give Nick a glass of cream sherry. He needs to loosen up.” I smile teasingly at my friend, draping a wing over his back and refusing to give into his sour mood. Taking our drinks in hand once they arrived we spent a few minutes sipping them quietly together. A hand wrapped around my own as I lifted my stout and a steadier voice enticed my ears.

“Thank you for putting up with me Vels, especially during my grumpy periods.” Nick had a small but noticeable small framing his lips and he seemed more relaxed. His eyes wandered around the room and he sighed as he ran his left hand through his messy black hair. “I know I’m not the easiest to get along with but somehow you’re always there and always happy to help. Ugh I’m babbling sorry.”

“Of course I am we’re friends, you do the same for me. And feel free to ‘babble’ all you want. I know you bottle things up too much. That’s why I wanted to come here, like I said before we need a break from routine. Now come on let’s see if we can find someone to talk to.” Setting my bottle on the counter I grab Nick’s hand and begin to lead him aimlessly through the crowd hoping to find something or someone interesting.

(I'm using the new tweaked format that was suggested to be a better fit for my novel.

Tell me honestly does it work? Are the characters and dialouges actually easier to follow? I have no clue so any opinion would be most welcome.

Cheers

The Weary TimeLord.)
