"I told you we shouldn't have come in here, even at the proprietor's request." Sextus was a little flustered as he spoke the words. Arrius felt a little embarassed at having seen Desdemona in nothing but a large towel. "You mean the MacRoth fellow?" he asked. Sextus sighed deeply and said "Yes, I mean the MacRoth fellow. He asked us here to see if we would be interested in investing some money into this place. The renovation seems to have stalled and I'm sure it has to do with lack of funds. It would be to our benefit to contribute. The citizens of Pompeii would be very grateful." Arrius thought about that and said "Of course, you're right. What should we do now?" Sextus looked around impatiently. "I can tell you what we SHOULDN'T have done and that was wander into the ladies half of the baths. That in itself is a social faux pas. There is a reason why this bath has two entrances, one for men and the other for women. We're lucky that no one other than Desdemona has seen us in here. MacRoth may have the privilege of running around in the ladies baths but we don't. I think we need to make a hasty retreat."
