"It's all right. It just happens to be very important to me to win with the hand I was dealt. So be it." "Your funeral." Her lips were muffled on his mouth. "Mmm." She drew back a moment. "Can I still jump your bones? Carefully of course. You'll not go away mad, for turning you down? Turning Barrayar down, that is. Not you, never you ..." I'm getting used to it. Almost numb.... "Am I to sulk?" he inquired lightly. "Because I can't have it all, take none. and go off in a huff? I'd hope you'd bounce me down the corridor on my pointed head if I were so dense." She laughed. It was all right, if he could still make her laugh. If Naismith was all she wanted, she could surely have him.
