didn’t land, where would it go to? Would they redirect it to another Moscow airport? Maybe Bykovo or Domodedovo?
That was an idea. I ought to tell Edgar or Anna Tikhonovna they should send Watch members, just in case…
And then again, they could divert the plane to Kaluga or Tula. If the weather was better there. Which it very well could be-after all, here in Butovo the Light weather magicians were obviously giving it their best shot.
After being outside, the terminal building felt warm and cozy. I went straight up to the second floor, to the bar where Boryansky and I once drank beer while we were waiting for a plane and ate nuts while we listened to a song that had literally dogged our footsteps during that trip: “… the summer has flown by, it’s all behind us now…”
It took me a moment to realize that this was a memory-and I hardly had any of them left. What murky depths of my mind had it surfaced from? I couldn’t tell.
I tried to think exactly who Boryansky was, but I couldn’t even remember his face. And as to where we’d been flying to, and what for… For some reason the only memory that kept on coming back was that then, in those ancient Soviet times, he had a huge bidet in his apartment. Of course, it didn’t work… and anyway, what would a Soviet citizen want with a bidet?
But the bar was still exactly the same as I remembered it. A counter, high stools, gleaming beer taps. And a TV
in the corner. But the video clip they were showing on it was quite different. A young guy with suspiciously red eyes and a girl in a scarlet dress. He was kissing her hand. And the action after that was like a good thriller-complete with slashing wolf’s jaws and all the rest. The moment I really enjoyed was when the young guy, who for some reason was now dressed in the girl’s scarlet dress, came into the ballroom and then split apart into several wolves. And I liked the final shot, when the girl’s red eyes glinted as she surveyed her guests…
Hmm. Well, the guys who made that didn’t know too much about shape-shifting Others. Just as the unfailingly fashionable writer Pelevin didn’t know much about real, gluttonous, dirty werewolves. But the clip was well produced, you couldn’t deny that. The werewolves must have all chipped in to pay the producer and influenced the musicians-and what they’d ended up with was a beautiful, romantic video about themselves. The Russian vampires had done the same thing only just recently.
I remembered the name of the group-Rammstein-for future reference, so that I’d be able to find the song and listen to it a bit more carefully.
I ordered beer and a couple of hamburgers and then sat at one side near the television, with my back to the room.
My stomach already thought my throat had been cut, and I was determined to do something about the situation.
