Orgies are really hard to write. They're even hard to read (at least for me), because it's so easy to lose track of what is where and who is with whom. But I think allowing Baru to imagine himself involved worked perfectly, since I I was losing track right along with him as his own fantasy fused with reality. He really is too adorable for words.

Car troubles suck. I hope you get it figured out soon. Being dependent on others for transportation, even when it's just a 'can I borrow the car', is a giant pain.
