“Yes. Nelly is studying etiquette and protocol,” Kris said.
“A gal’s got to know how to fit into polite society,” Nelly announced for herself.
“A polite computer,” Crossie observed. “I wonder how that works.”
Kris was glad that none of the black-hearted seniors present extended that observation to the logical conclusion. The line between tactful diplomacy and bald-faced lying was often a thin one. Kris now had to watch that line very carefully with Nelly.
Not for the first time, Kris wondered if Nelly’s latest upgrade had been all that good an idea.
And not for the last time, she told herself that Nelly was Nelly, and her life would be a whole lot less fun without her pet computer/BFF.
Maybe if she kept telling herself that, it would get easier to believe it.
With a regal, if a bit limp, wave of the hand, King Raymond I dismissed Kris.
By Kris’s own count, there were still a whole lot of issues hanging fire between them. Still, she took the dismissal and moved out.
With luck, he’d be in a better mood the next time they butted heads.
