K’tanya sighed heavily as she looked at one of her traveling companions. "Why are we doing this again?"

Archimedes, now in his human form so as not to scare people, cocked his head slightly. "I think a better question is why are you making me do it with you."

"Because if he’s going to make me suffer, then you have to suffer too."

The griffin sighed. "You could have said no."

"Yes, but I’m trying to change, and Adam says this helps build character. What do you think?"

Archimedes snorted softly. "I think flying by plane is for the birds."

"You know, when you look down on them they really do seem like a bunch of ants, even beyond the whole being fun to play thing. I mean, all they ever do is scurry around from here to there, a bunch of little workers who do nothing all day except answer to the call of their queen, money. It’s kind of sad when you think about it."

Archimedes looked over his shoulder at her. "They are ants. We have not left the ground yet."

"Well then let’s go shopping already. I have this sudden urge for gingham and sparkly shoes."

The griffin sat watching her, his eyes emotionless and unblinking.

"Would you stop looking at me like that, Archimedes? It’s disconcerting."

The great feathered head cocked slightly to the right as his voice sounded in her mind. Then perhaps you should listen to reason and let this one go.

K’tanya pouted slightly and shook her head. "I can fix things. I just need to get rid of a little bit of baggage is all. Besides, I never lose."

Ah, but you can’t lose something if you simply stop playing the game.

"Forfeiting is the same as losing."

Archimedes mentally sighed.

When I was a little girl, I had a dream about what my life was going to be like when I was older. First, I was going to get my very own pony. Then I was going to grow up and become a dancer/singer/actress/model and I was going to be famous and beautiful and everyone was going to love me. At the very height of my fame, a handsome prince was going to ride up on a white horse and carry me away to his castle. We would have a lavish wedding with thousands of guests, and we would be driven away in a glass carriage for our honeymoon in the Caribbean. Then we would have 2.5 kids, and a little summer cottage with a white picket fence by a lake, in the mountains, next to an apple orchard. And we would all live happily ever after.

I got a griffin instead of a pony, but I guess a girl can't have everything.
