Public Applause

"It'll be a cold day in Hell before I invite you to the opera with me again!"
"Don't know what you're so pissed about! All's I did was hold you across the balustrade and applaud."
"Clapping my ass to a standing ovation in goddamn Lincoln Center was uncouth, you clod!"
The End

This was cute. Kate is on a roll with the mini sagas and normally is right on...this doesn't disappoint either. Oh those spankos and trying to get some culchah into them. Dress em up but sheesh...a spanking at Lincoln Center? Fun Kate.

This never happens when I go to the opera. Interesting idea. I like the saga written entirely in dialogue.

It may be uncouth to show appreciation for art by smacking your partner's bottom, but at least some of the performers were bound to take it as a suitable form of gratitude.

No fair! I think there's more story here than what you're telling. I loved the image this provided, but I was left wanting to know more! There must be a reason he decided to applaud in this particular way. Inquiring minds want to know. ;)
