Disclaimer: As always, this is fiction. It never happened.

Balmy September evening, bright amber-glow spilled onto twilight sidewalk.

After the book-signing of one of Viggo's poet friends, they'd passed on foot a restaurant they'd once frequented.

"What'cha thinking, Sean?"

"A line from one of 'er poems stuck in me 'ead: 'Pinwheels and bags of sweets.'"

"Why that one?"

"Bugger if I know..."

That flash of stealthy interest told Sean he'd soon be helpless in Viggo's hands.

Formality eschewed, they found seats at the bar and proceeded to the loo's shadows. There Viggo made a pinwheel of his tongue, juggling a bag of sweet hard candy till gooey insides melted in his mouth.
