"The friendly ones have spines but unless you actually squeeze it they're unlikely to stick you. You can pet them." Isabella pets a cactus.

She giggles and pets one, too. "Okay this is kind of adorable. So the unfriendly cacti stick more easily, I see."

"Yeah, and some of them have little tiny barbs that stick in your skin and you can't even tweeze them out."

"Yeah that sounds really unfriendly. How do you get them off you if you can't tweeze them out?"

"I think you have to wait until you shed that layer of skin, actually. Maybe you can peel them out with duct tape."

"Sounds unpleasant." Pet pet the friendly cactus.

Sadde probably doesn't think cacti are as interesting as this person but she can appreciate them a bit more than she did before. She reads the things.

It's not a very big museum. Even if they read all the things it will only take a couple hours to see everything. There is a gift shop with tiny cacti and cactus-themed objects and books about cacti.

Sadde does not, in fact, have money. She wants to buy Isabella a tiny cactus and she does not have money. This is a thing that will need to be fixed.

Good.

"Like I said, better than it sounds. Especially the flowering ones."

"Yeah. They were pretty. And I never thought I'd find myself enjoying petting cacti. New experiences with the gorgeous dom, I hope we make this a habit."

"There are only so many tourist destinations in this little nowhere town, so don't get too attached to the novelty."

"I didn't necessarily mean new tourist destinations."

"Ah."

Happy shiver. "I really like it when you look at me like that."

"Good," purrs Isabella.

Squirm squirm.

"Do you have plans for the rest of the evening?"
