Chapter 14

Bonbon was carrying a report under one foreleg as she walked down the hallway. The halls were uniform black, undecorated, though there was a water-cooler halfway down the hallway in either direction. Though 'halfway' didn't mean much when none of the doors or directions were labelled either.

Still, Bonbon seemed to know where she was going. She made her way to what looked like a mail-room, an unlocked door that led to a tower of boxes, also unlabelled, but filled with bits of paper, letters and clipboard pages and all sorts of miscellaneous files. Without stopping to even check the box, Bonbon slid her report into place in the third spot from the right, second row from the top. She shut the door behind her, but left it unlocked, as it had been when she'd entered.

Lyra was waiting outside the room for her when she exited, leaning against the wall with her forelegs folded over her chest.

"Ready to head home?"

Bonbon nodded. "Ready."

The two held hooves as they walked down the hallway.

"So why didn't the anomalous object... why didn't the book work on you?"

Lyra shrugged.

"Dunno. Maybe I'm just not the easily frustrated type."

"Do you want bottom or top tonight?"

"Maybe both?"
