It wasn't an accusation, but rather spoken with concern. May plucked at her bedclothes self-consciously, averting her eyes from him as he lit another cigarette. He tapped the pack and smiled reassuringly, although she could see the waver behind it, that hint of fear that everyone had shown around her for the last few months.
'If I am, it's nothing to do with you. You know I wouldn't leave you.'

Had a American punter once who worked in some big-up marketing company. He had laughed drunkenly when he heard about my habit of closing, citing in a voice thick with alcohol and buzzwords all the money that could be made by opening on that particular day, the costume parties, the promotions, demographics and trends , rolling off figures from the pockets of his expensive suit.

They had said there would be fire and so there was, great cascading fountains of it, scouring continents to the bedrock, leaving crumpled shades of ash in their wake. They had ranted about the Beast, and there were plenty now to choose from, great iron-boned dragons snarling overhead, lank-haired grendels padding through city streets, ram-horned basilisks cawing and fucking in the coming dark.

If God Has A Master PlanI watch her across the table while she lights a cigaretteshe looks a lot more nervous than the last time I saw her. Her fingers twitch nervously as she absent-mindedly scratches at her lips with the hand holding the cigarette. Her eyes scan the roomshe's looking for familiar faces.If God Has A Master Plan
'Why did you do it?'
Her eyes flick to my face for a second and then back to the room again. We're sitting in a crowded basement pub, round tables stacked closely together, groups of people sitting around them. Grim-faced and weary-eyed, they smoke and drink and cast nervous glances towards the door everytime somebody comes in

Short of you dropping by in a helicopter with a case of rum, a pet velociraptor and an intricate plan to rob Fort Knox, I couldn't be happier.
