Dru danced. When she heard music, the rhythm beating along her skin like a heart, it moved her.
Sometimes It was the sounds the stars made when they quarreled.
Sometimes it was the laughter of snakes in the grass.
Tonight it was the music from a cover band playing at a high school. Other people could hear it even.
Her guests were having a lovely time. She had three lovely jewels, shining black bits of night sky, she could carry with her. And more soon.
Hush. Be silent and you'll hear it too.
