I had a peculiar dream that I was visiting some faraway place, maybe even a different planet, as someone noteworthy (reading The Dispossessed has apparently affected my subconscious) and I was at a party where I politely hated everyone I met there. Eventually I saw a very shy girl with dark (kind of mahogany brown) skin and purple lipstick, and then noticed her eyes were golden and slit-pupilled.

I went over and was unable to say anything but "Wow, you're beautiful," and she laughed kind of quietly and looked down and said "Nah, you're kidding, right?" (or something equivalent), and I noticed she had fangs almost the length of my thumb.

I spent time talking with her, because she was more interesting (not least by being different) than everyone else, and we ended up lying side by side on the grass outside listening to the crickets sing, until we fell asleep.
