| The conversation turned instead to the life and work of the models at the Tails.

"...and there's really no sex behind the camera?" Shabhira was asking Udaran.

"Not at all. I know it seems odd, but when you've done it as long as I have, sex seems almost unrelated to the posing. As a professional model, your goal is to please the camera. Sometimes that involves some pretty intense contortions of the body, but fortunately Khajiit and Argonians are good at that."

"I see. But, that's regrettable." | |

| "Regrettable? How so?"

"It almost seems like a lie. The readers see this sensual, sexy female practically begging for a tumble in the bed. But what they are really seeing is just the end result of a group of people working to present that fantasy. It's not real."

"Well of COURSE it's not real. Only the most fanboyish of fanboys think it's real. But they still BUY it," Udaran responded, perhaps a bit too emphatically. | |

| "Lighten up Udaran, I'm not trying to put down what you do! But no, I just don't see it being my future."

"That's too bad," Muz-Ra interjected, "you've got a hell of a body you know!"

"Nice of you to notice, Red. But this one is reserved."

"For who? Have you got a boyfriend?"

"Or GIRLfriend?" Udaran added.

"Oh, no. Nothing like that currently. But I don't think I'm cut out for sharing myself that way, even if it is just a fantasy." | |

| "What is it Udie? You look hurt. What did I say?"

"I guess I had my own fantasy, that you'd come and live with us. But that's selfishness. I miss your mother, and you remind me SO much of her. Even without the intimacy I was still hoping you might stay."

"Well, perhaps for a while as a guest. I am hoping to stay till I decide what I want to do next, but I'm just not Tails material. I can still come visit though, or you can visit me wherever I 'land'".

"That will do fine. I'm sorry, just a little disappointed that my own fantasy isn't going to come true. But I'll get over it." | |

| "You know what I WOULD like though is a bit of training."

"Training? What do you mean?"

"Well, someday when I DO settle down, I'd like to know a pose or two for my mate. I mean, I can do the demure, shy girl just fine. It's my natural state in the bedroom. But the sultry temptress is beyond me. I start giggling." | |

| "Oh, we can do that! When we stop for the night, I'll show you a thing or two. But really it's not so much the posing as the acting. You have to believe you really ARE that person. It's really IS acting. If you are playing pretend, it's not going to work. You have to BE the person you're presenting whoever it is. A Sultry Temptress isn't going to giggle. But still, there are some technical things to posing too."

"Wow, I guess you really DO have a skill and not just a hot body." | |

| "Well thank you Shabhira. I do hope after all this time working at the Tails I've learned SOMETHING beyond how to keep a diet!"

"Oh shit, I'm sorry Udaran! That wasn't what I meant at all! I don't mean to be offensive. Really I don't! I guess I'm a little clueless when it comes to people." | |

| "It's getting dark girls. It's been a long day and we're all getting tired and irritable, but we've done well today. We're just coming out of the Reach now. It's time we considered where we're going to spend the night. FarSeer's cabin is far south of here across the lake so that's out. Let's start looking for likely campsites. We'll want to be not too far off the road that we can't find it easily, but far enough that we're not spotted by any wandering bandits."

"Should we split up and go looking for a place?" Kitty asked. | |

| "That's not a bad idea - but in pairs. I'll go by myself. Let's meet back here in an hour. ONE hour. I'll go up this way."

"I'll go with Kitty," Shabhira said.

"But neither of you have weapons," the Argonian noted. "Kitty's got her cloak, but you have nothing to defend yourself with."

"You underestimate me Ubergard. I would surprise you with what some of my little vials can do. There are more methods of defense than a strong offense too. We'll be fine. Besides, I daresay I've spent more time out in the wild than you have!" | |

| "Very well. You two look down that way. Red and Udaran, you head up towards that hill and see if you spot anything. We're just looking for a protected area, perhaps with a rock wall we can shelter beside. Ideally an unoccupied cave but those are rare and the occupants you find will not be friendly so don't risk anything. Remember - ONE hour. Once you've been gone a half hour, start heading back. And stay together." | |
