Its been raining for the past week in Nottingham so Will beams with gratitude when he finds a door to the Bar.

After a few moments, he is stretched out on a couch with hot chocolate, soup and his cloak drying by the fire as he feels dry for the first time in days.

(OOC: Mun is here, but might disappear to go play with nieces and family so consider this open until it falls off the page.)

"Mm, aye, was one o'the specials. Now tell me what I've missed, love?"

He just grins and gives her a good long kiss to enjoy the hot chocolate.

Mmm chocolate flavored kisses.

After a moment, she added, "Well, there were a couple of parties. You would have liked the Disney one, but the Hawaii one, you had to teleport there. Plus the beach was upside down. It was fun but strange."

"Oh aye, who was 'oldin' 'em?"

"Dinah was holding the Disney one. Cassie and Billy were invited too. Xaldin and Xigbar were holding the Hawaii one."

She then added since Will probably didn't know, "And oh, I've spoken with Xaldin a few times now, and agreed to help him, and the other Nobodies. They should get a chance to be really living again. Not this barely fighting for existence."

He gives a small nod and hugs her again,

"Aye, course just 'ope that they understand what they're askin' for like Axel did."

She hugged him back tightly, "I think so. It's not right, plus that there's so few left of them to stay kind of like a person. They already know Billy, and he's helping them too."

"What needs to be done to aid 'em?"

"Well so far, Xaldin said they'll really need support when they do get hearts again."

"Aye, course, 'member when Axel went through it. Wasna great part o'it, but Mia was. 'rhaps they should ask 'er for aid."

"Maybe they already are if they know. I'll ask her about it."

"Aye, good. Glad ye're doin' well."

"I am... sort of. Billy's getting into the middle of it back home...."

She hugged Will tightly again.

"He's going to be sent to that prison, and I can't even tell him."

"Oh, love. Come 'ere."

He strokes her hair and kisses her forehead.

She clung tighter to him.

"I warned him a little, but couldn't say more. And I wanted to, really did. Just this stupid time stuff, can't risk making things worse, even though I know everything he's been through, and is going to go through. Can't stop it."

"Aye, love, time's a cruel thing. Ye did all ye could."

"There's something else. Told him about the Brand stuff, he needed to know. Know all of it."

"Course 'e did, couldna 'ave been easy."

"No it wasn't. Still isn't. He might ask you about some of it, maybe?" She shrugged, and glanced away. Idly looking at some of the strange objects behind the bar, like the tacked on bra.

"Will say naught. Kate, please talk to me?"

He runs a hand through her hair and down her back to soothe her.

"About what?" She glanced back at Will, though slight relaxing in her frame.

"Somethin's botherin' ye an canna figure it is all."

She sighed, "All of it. Just things with the war, and what's happening now for Billy, it's just bringing it all back."

Kate's blue eyes met Will's green as she added, "Billy asked me that would I want to change it so you weren't hurt. Teddy was tortured... you were even worse.....I didn't want to answer him."

"Oh love, can understand why 'e's askin' but canna change the past just 'ave to keep livin'."

"The problem is it's my past, but his future, you know? Changes things. Even though the last time we tried, it went totally bad."

"Then 'e 'as to learn that, love. Shouldna be blamin' ye for what ye canna do."
