one more, 'cause i'm bored.

The Tighs: Carnival

Saul Tigh had searched through what felt like dozens of palazzi before finally hearing his wife's laughter sparkling above the crowd.

"Ellen," he said--not overtly accusing, even though he'd found her in...someone's lap. Frakking masks.

"Saul!" she called back, delighted, swaying up out of the much-younger man's lap. "You came!"

He just stared at her.

"Saul," she said, now complaining. "Saaaaaaaaul." She somehow stretched out his name to an infinite number of syllables. "It's Carnival, Saul. Have a drink, join the party!"

Well. That did sound a little tempting.

She could read his answer in his face, and clapped her hands, spilling her drink a little. Her laughter glittered over the party again. She grabbed his hand and pulled him into the dance.
