re-entrance post

[walker-cain.livejournal.com]

From here: The Door opens, revealing a rainstorm, and out of it stumble two drenched but laughing figures. They Skid to the floor and lay laughing and kissing each other for a long moment before, suddenly, one of them looks up.

His eyes widen.

"Molly... we're back. We're back at Milliways!"

The woman looks up and a soft smile crosses her face.

"We made it."

Then the two grin and go back to kissing.

Cain and Molly have returned to Milliways, wet, tired, and happy.

He smies and sips his drink, then digs in to the food.

After a little while of eating, he asks a wait rat if it knows when they left. The rat scurries away and comes back with a note.

You have been gone almost6 three weeks, Bar Time.

He blinks.

"Huh... weird."

He passes it to Molly.

"Three weeks! A little more than I expected, actually, compared to last time, though you wouldn't remember it. Usually time passes much more quickly in your world than it does here...three times faster, or more."

She sets the note down and shrugs.

"I hope Asar-Suti will let me go back to working in the gardens. I keep disappearing on him, without really speaking to him. I've only left notes."

Cain grins at her.

"I am sure he will. You are a good person. And you have definitely shown you can work and survive roughing it this trip."

He smiles proudly at her.

She chuckles at that.

"Yes, but that doesn't help him here while I'm off galavanting with you."

She takes another bite of her meal and smiles at Mortimer.

"What do you think Mortimer? This is going to be your new home!"

She's really grown ridiculously attached to the carved head in the short time that Cain's owned him.

Cain raises an eyebrow but lets it go. She has talked to the small head before and he finds it somewhat cute.

"I am sure Mortimer agrees that anyone would be foolish to not forgive you and take you back on..."

He grins. Then he glances around.

"It feels... weird to be back here, like... i is home and yet, it feels weird. Good, but... weird."

[mollyprewett.livejournal.com]

"I know what you mean. Getting back here was kind of abrupt, wasn't it? It's hard to take in all at once."

It does feel a bit strange to be back at last. She really hadn't expected a door to present itself so soon after they had decided they were ready to come back.

"I guess the Lanlord, or Bar were listening when we wanted to come back, or maybe it was just time..."

He thinks about it, then shrugs.

"Whatever the reason, I am glad we are home, and together."

He grins at her and leans over to kiss her.

Whatever the reason, she is looking forward to sleeping in her own bed.

She takes another couple of bites of food, and finishes her wine before pushing her plate away.

She rests her elbow on the edge of the table, and rests her chin on her hand, and just looks at him.

"I am in love with you."

[walker-cain.livejournal.com]

He blinks, then returns her gaze and matches her movement, pushing food away.

"And I am in love with you. With every corner of my heart."

He smiles softly at her, and scoots his chair around a little to be closer to her.

They probably look disgustingly sappy and cozy together. The thought only makes her smile brighter.

"What do you say we take Mortimer upstairs, and turn him to face a corner so we can do naughty things to each other?"

[walker-cain.livejournal.com]

A wide grins spreads across his face.

"That, my dear? Sounds very nice indeed."

He grins at her and rises, gathering his bags.

"That will give me a chance to give you another present I picked up in a town a ways back..."

He winks at her and starts forward.

[mollyprewett.livejournal.com]

"Another present?"

She gathers up Mortimer and tucks him under her arm as she follows him toward the stairs.

"What is it?"

[walker-cain.livejournal.com]

He leans in and whispers in her ear.

"Matching mens and women's silk lingerie..."

He winks at her and unlocks the door, ushering her in and finding a place to shed his bags.

[mollyprewett.livejournal.com]

She grins at that, and shakes her head a bit.

"You're incorrigable."

It's not as if they'll be wearing it for long. But if it pleases him, she'll wear whatever he likes.

She puts Mortimer down on the dressing table, and turns him to face the wall, then turns and steps into Cain's waiting arms."
