Alice Wentworth sat silently down beside me at my table at Meilori's.
"I am somewhat perturbed with you, Roland," she murmured in her proper Victorian accent.
Now when a ghoul, proper or not, says she is perturbed with you that is not good news!
"What do you mean?" I said out of a suddenly tight throat.
Victor sat down beside her with a lazy grin. "She saw your ads on eBAY selling our images on a poster, a coffee mug, and a T-shirt."

Alice's voice grew lower. "You are making money off my image."
I shook my head. "I will take whatever extra I make from them than the cost of their production and donate it to the Salvation Army in New Orleans."
Her eyes widened and Victor beamed a smile. "See? I told you so. Our Roland is one of a kind!"
I patted her cold, cold hand. "I make my living from being a rare blood courier, Alice. This is just my way to get you two to a larger audience of potential readers."
Alice bent over the table and kissed me full on the lips. Now, it was Victor who was glowering at me. Sigh.
I can't win.

This is so cool!
ReplyDeleteBraine:
ReplyDeleteThanks. It is just another way to get Victor and Alice perhaps noticed by more people outside my usual list of suspects. LOL. I'm happy you like my idea.
That is wild!
ReplyDeleteAlex:
ReplyDeleteAlice and Victor are apt to show up most anywhere. Why not eBay? LOL.
That is so cool, Roland. I'm glad Alice is understanding:)
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures! Victor seems to enjoy the publicity, at least.

ReplyDeleteAt first, she was looking at my hands, and I could see the idea of "finger sandwiches" flash in her neon blue eyes!

Victor is the least shy fellow in the known universe! I have driven 300 miles today, and I am just now dragging in. Whew! And I am still on first call all night!!
