Now that the intense part of our conversation was over, it was time to move on to more important things.
"U..uhm, Sir Dominic, I am certain that you are aware of this already, but I am a human. That means that I smell like a human. Won't your staff pick up on that when this oil runs out?" As I asked that question, I touched my wrist where the oil was thickest.
"Ah yes, that could pose a bit of an issue. However, there is one thing that I can do to make that smell go away." I saw a grin start to spread across Sir Dominic's face. whatever he had planned, probably wasn't something that I wanted to know about.
"A..and what can you do to make it go away?" Dang it! My nerves were showing again. When was I going to stop being so nervous all the time? My guess is when I finally get to go home.
