Ankyra Sound holy water

Meerkat latched onto Chacal’s song, desperate to stop the spiraling of her thoughts. Every name the woman sang, she repeated in her head. Chani. Chiro. Calixte. Ophelie. Beatrix. Allegra. Lovelie. She tried to decide which ones she preferred from the list and thought Calixte had a particularly exotic ring to it.

She didn’t want the spotlight the Tanzanite shifted over to her next, so she simply shook her head and said, I like Calixte. But Lovelie’s very sweet too. Have you ever, Meerkat asked, pausing to swallow, considered giving them middle names, so you can use more of them? Like, for instance, Calixte Lovelie. Oh, better yet, Lovelie Calixte. Or Chani Allegra. Or Beatrix Ophelia. Or Chiro… um, I think I ran out. But there’s so many beautiful combinations you could make.
