[Alecta/Altair/Ari/Open]
Altair didn't know whether or not Ari found this funny—he suspected she did, as her sense of humor was often similar to his own. He hung back, looking between the two women, not bothering to hide his amusement at the situation. And the fact that they had both come in the same dress, well, one certainly couldn't make up something this entertaining.
Most people, it seemed, were very invested in having their friends get along. Indeed, Altair had heard a lot of angst from other people on this very subject. Altair, on the other hand, felt he actually preferred it this way. He liked both Ari and Alecta on their own separate merits, but he rather enjoyed the fact that they seemed to loathe each other so. Having two good friends get along just seemed so ... boring. He was glad not to have that problem.
