A Deal
Daneel drummed his fingers across his knuckles as they walked to the small room that once again held the outsider.
On the way, he dwelled more on what had happened before his little rest and the eventful things that had happened after. Without magic at his fingertips, he had almost felt handicapped, and now that this had been rectified, it felt as if the world was once again in his grasp.
The Will was powerful, yes, but at the end of the day, it was something external. Power from within was always that which gave the most confidence, and so, the moment he entered the room, an easy smile came to his face, but his cheeks burned when he remembered his dreams out of the blue, and how pleasant Coraline's body had felt.
Cursing at himself, he took a seat and waited for the man to talk. The outsider's pride had left him, replaced by the calm of a businessman intent on closing a deal.
