((Jiggeddy-jig))
*Nadir led Shadi up the steps to his house.* "Should I carry you over the threshold?" *he asked, only half-joking. She was half his height, at least. It wouldn't be too hard.*

((Oh my god, that was quick. This. is so. wrong.))
*Shadi giggled, half-nervous and half-excited.* "Well, it's only proper, isn't it?"

8Nadir faked a grunt of exertion as he swept her off her feet.* "I'd no idea making an honest woman out of a girl would be so much work," *he said drily as he entered the house.*

*Shadi laughed and rested her head against his chest.* "I'm a terrible burden," *she agreed.* "And I haven't even gotten fat yet!"

((*grins* Honey, you ain't seen nothing yet.)) ((You scare me a little. Is this about that picture you showed me?)) *Nadir laughed.* "As many cookies as you want," *he said.*

((Oh man, are we going to be usurped? I feel a little cheated.))
*Shadi chuckled lowly.* "Maybe... later," *she said suggestively.*
((And with that, I gotta go. My drummer's birthday.))

Alexander knocked on the door of Nadir's house, driven by a strange urge to see the Persian.

*A knock at the parlour door made Nadir turn away from Shadi.* "Yes?" "A visitor, Sir," *came a servant's voice.* "Show them in," *he said sharply, hoping the interview might be done with quickly, whatever the matter was.*

Alexander strode through the door. He did not stir his expression, but merely studied his old friend and the young woman who bore a striking resemblance to him, yet who could not possibly be related at all, as they stood like lovers.
"Old friend," he said quietly, "who is your charming companion?"

*For a moment Nadir could not look Xandros fully in the eye, barely able to guess at what reaction his next words might cause. Then, as his gaze finally caught his friend's, he spoke calmly, if quietly.* "Xandros, this is my wife."

Alexander felt his insides freeze for a moment, but remembered his own words to Nadir.
I shall not keep you from your women...
With a slow smile, he went to Shadi, picked up her hand, and bowed.
"A pleasure, madame," he said quietly.
Lifting his eyes to Nadir, he let steel grey meet gold amber and stared at him.
"I am sorry to interrupt, but if I could speak to you for a few moments?"
