[voice - private to Anya Lehnsherr]

[It's been almost a week since the self defense lesson, and Natasha has been thinking of Anya since then. Not exclusively, of course. She's been thinking of all the women who attended. The issue she has, for the most part, is that she has a mixed class and she's not sure if she's comfortable teaching everything she knows to all of them. No, that's not true. She's very sure that she's not comfortable teaching all of them.

This, as it happens, is her first attempt to puzzle out one of her undecideds.]

I don't suppose you're still awake?

[It's about ten at night, and Anya looked pretty young to her.]
