Well, if you're going to be like that... :)

The very first image that came to mind was Kaitlyn and Juri, either after the ice is cracked, so to speak, or, even more intriguing, as the specific event that starts as a friendly duel and ends as a more-than-friendly duel. Maybe the latter is a little Top Gun-ish, but then I have a soft spot for moments like that, so sue me. :) <edit> Just dawned on me that going into a duel would also place Kate in 'combat mode', thus clearing out the stutter that's still pretty strong with Juri, and significantly bolstering her confidence. Hmmmmm, interesting... </edit>

(And, given the title of the next Entr'acte, insert said duel into some out of the way yet picturesque Paris spot--one of the boardwalks down below street level on the Seine after dark would be nice and pretty and out of the way enough to not draw too much attention, especially later at night. Refer to Woody Allen's Everyone Says I Love You, specifically the dance between Woody and Goldie Hawn towards the end in a similar spot. If you can stand Woody Allen movies, anyway. :)

Then, tonight whilst driving about in a fit of insomnia, I saw it with Amanda and Devlin instead. The new dynamic in their relationship combined with the fact that a duel with Devlin might be as good as foreplay for our favorite Gamilon Princess would make it a good match. :) Now that I think about it, though, is Devlin a duelist? I'm blanking if it was even mentioned now. Haven't seen him with a melee weapon, and I certainly doubt the PPG counts. It was a thought, anyway.

There, I shared, and I feel better now.
