ABD, y'all.

I had the oral portion of my quals today. I am now ABD.

To celebrate, the meme that I was planning to do last weekend before I got busy: Post a comment about a story that I have never written ("Hey, I loved that AU where Babs was an assassin!" "Man. It doesn't get better than Rex the Wonder Dog as the new Robin."). I'll do my best to give you

Comments

Man, it doesn't get better than Rex the Wonder Dog as the new Cottontail.

p.s. Congratulations! Go you!

Rex mounted the steps at the back of the villa. He was still sore from the beating he'd been given earlier, when he'd failed their command and only bitten the slave girl, not ripped her to shreds. The pain wasn't new. He'd been beaten before, and worse, and harder. But not since -- not since the Kildar. The Kildar would take pride in that; and the others at the caravanserai would think Rex should be grateful. Had the Kildar not rescued them from the brothels from which they were destined? Did not he give them clothes, and rooms of their own, and catalogs from which to shop? He was, in truth, the finest man to ever own a whore, a girl, a dog. Truly, Rex knew how much the Kildar was owed. And some day, he meant to pay him in full.

Rex stayed with the girls in the harem by day, and accompanied them to the Kildar's door. The Kildar almost never let Rex in, and he never, ever let Rex stay in the room afterwards, when the Kildar slept. They knew each other too well for that.

Damn you for making this sound interesting.

You *don't* want to see Rex on the berserker drug. I'm just saying.
