ACT I - Storm & Quen
Quen let go of Storm's arm so she could clap, too. She clapped for each act enthusiastically, rapidly and loudly. She would cheer, too, but she was in the Kapur box, and she had to act with some sort of decorum. She already didn't know what Lady Kapur thought of her.
"That was great, Storm," she said, smiling. "I felt like I could really see what was going on. Thank you."
After the clapping around and below her, people seemed to be talking and moving, rather than settling back in their seats for the next act. "Is it intermission?" Quen asked, and before Storm could get up and go anywhere, she took his arm again, this time placing his hand in between both of hers. "I want to tell you something really quick."
She'd been to dinner with Storm, on a boat no less, and now she was at a show with him. It was sort of like she was dating a fifteen-year-old. Quen wasn't sure if Storm thought they were friends, or if he had a crush on her. Either way, she felt a bit of responsibility toward him.
