"I'm sorry." said Gnaeus, " we have been patient. But nothing has changed. It must not be the right crystal ."

Aura pouted. She had a wonderful pout too. Her lower lip came forward just enough. And her eyes always made you want to comfort her. Gnaeus hugged her. " It was a long shot. You did get it to fit, but it really doesnt look like the other seven crystals."

Aura snuggled into the Time Master a little, and said in her best pouty voice, " And I kissed it and licked it too."

" Almost always works too..... did I ever tell you that you are the very best kisser ? " said Gnaeus.

Aura pinched him, " You've been using that line for months, but I like it anyhow." she giggled.
