There's flame, waving, joyous and bright in the wood. A girl is dancing, lost in a song of emotion and light...and for those who can feel it. Can sense it, there is so much fierce joy that it's impossible to ignore.

Like gravity, destiny, or simply a vortex, she draws without meaning to, the light offering safey and protection, the emotion on the breeze offering solace for troubled hearts. Come and share...

And so it is that the rather pregnant girl walks into Milliways from the back door, with her black hair a cloud of tangles and a pleased smile on her face.

Sparhawk rides Faran through the morning weather with little regard for snow, or cold, or any weather trait.

It is in this darkness, still becoming light, that he considers the things that have happened and what may yet occur. On his world, a God is dead and the others are mysteriously silent, quiet, and all seems out of place and odd. Here, tensions seem to have been very off for days. For now, for whatever it is worth, Sparhawk is wary and on edge.

As he finishes the ride and unsaddles and tends Faran, he wonders what will happen next.

He heads into the Bar, and orders a large breakfast, quiet and brooding as ever.

It has been a while, hasn't it? Yes, of course it has. She didn't expect the door to be this door, but it was. Is. Sleepy blue eyes, always sleepy but now sleep-fogged as well, linger on this booth, or that patron, the length of the bar, before she looks over her shoulder at her sitting room.

It doesn't take long for her to make up her mind, no, and her steps are tiny, graceful, hips swaying in the manner of those who live by them, love by them, she knows her hips are made for loving and anyone created for sexuality can't help but love her own body, can she? Love of self is so important if you wish to love others, and love is as much her area of divinity as sexual rapture.

At the bar she acquires a pear, brown and rough, the skin pebbled in such a way as to tease the tongue, taunt it, give some texture to what she tastes just before her teeth bruise, break, and tear the skin. Tiny teeth, as well, white as the pearls found in the ocean that birthed her.

Edmond, who's been taking advantage of the last few days by keeping to himself, has ventured downstairs only once per day, to check for the door and fetch food or drink as necessary.

But now, having had time to himself to think and to come to terms with his situation, he steps up to the bar once more, orders a glass of wine, and settles, unobtrusively, into a booth. Thus, today, with a genial though somewhat resigned smile, he observes the bar and it's patrons, for only the second time since his arrival.
It is considerably unlikely that he would object to introductions.

Almost time to leave.

After the discussion last night with Michael, Ford has a clearer perspective on certain things. Which, he supposes, is why he was pulled here, and why it was now -- or, more to the point, then from his perspective.

But he can't resist staying just a little bit longer. Milliways is brighter now than in his more recent memories. He's not sure if something had happened to it to cause the change, or if something had happened merely to him, but there's no denying the difference.

Even the tea tastes better.

But almost time to leave, nevertheless.

Sitting by the piano with a half-transcribed song on a homemade piece of sheet-music paper, pencil tucked between his teeth, Gren fiddles back and forth between notes: A, C. A, C. The cup of tea by his side has long since gone cold: focusing on music does that to him. He wants the notes to flow and he wants the song to be beautiful where it needs to be and abrupt where it needs to be and cool and jazzy where it needs to be. That's always the challenge.

In death, as in life, it's music that keeps him going. The song really sounds a little bit like Goodnight Julia -- most of his songs have a hint of that, with its slow melodic sadness -- but he's making a conscious effort for this one to be different. It's easy to improvise through songs on his saxophone; he can do that as much as he wants. But writing out the music is where the discipline of songwriting comes in. It's always been an academic exercise for him, but he doesn't resent it. It lets him focus and right now, he very much wants to focus on something.

Anything.

Breakfast meetings are just the pits, in Trina's opinion, so she's not in the best of moods when she opens the door to head into the cafe and finds herself in Milliways.

She considers turning around and heading straight back to LA, but as no one here is likely to harass her about problems with the script, she decides a little bit of stalling can't hurt.

So here she is, settled at the bar with a latte and a low-fat lemon poppy seed muffin.

What? It's half past 9 AM in her world. Even for Trina Echolls, that's a bit early for a cocktail.

A golden glow blossomed around her as she nodded to her student who followed suit. The two glowing figures waited a moment as Mesaana lectured slightly.

"Control is of the utmost as this requires a great deal of the Power."

Weaves formed slowly around her hands so that Kim could see how they were formed. A blinding flash as myriad coruscating bolts of lightning flung from Mesaana's hands. Whipping back and forth in a blinding display of power, the bolts twisted in the air for just a second before disappearing.

The smell of ozone was crisp in the air. A satisfied look on Mesaana's face. The stone was ripped by gashes, the very rock turned to impossibly smooth glass. At the stone's base, the snow was melted and the grass burned slightly.

There's an FBI agent in the bar.


He's got a tall frosty glass o' coke (Don't blame him he asked for a beer) and he's generally watching the world go by.

Not adverse to company.

Truman had been out back, going for a leisure stroll around earlier.

He was back in the bar, and was sitting over near his still favorite spot. Namely by the Observation Window, his new favorite show was on.

This glorious day to squeeze, save, and shelve
Sitting at a table with two corked and sealed bottles.
in dandelion wine, fermented, distilled, stocked.
And down to one, the red waxen seal had been broken and he used a knife to spear the cork out. The dandelion wine is being drunk out of a Mason jelly jar, because it seems to be the only way he can enjoy it.
Cellar will shelter, protect, and secure
His eyes are on his door, and he appears content.
deep joy. Preserve, keep, lock.

*There is a Bright Shiner at the piano, tonight. The music sings of the heat haze of a high summer sunrise, where the air seems to hum. The luxurious lethargy of letting the light cascade down upon one, filling one with warmth and the pure energy of day. Arpeggios stretch to the sky, twisting as they wake the melody; chromatic swirls of notes, energy rippling in whirling curlicues of golden delight play among the slanting shafts of harmonic light.*

*Come listen.*

The problem with questions you need to ask is that they aren't always questions you want to ask. Often, in fact, they are quite the opposite. That's Max's problem today, and why she sits staring out at the end of the universe, psyching herself up for a discussion she does not want to have.

Ever.

Conversation would be welcome. She could use the distraction.

There is an aggitated young prince in the bar; he's curled up with a Smoking Mountain (nonalcoholic version) and a few ....ESL books. Bar was generous, what with Wells teaching him English letters and all.

He occasionally glances about the bar with -- something akin to nervous energy, a worrisome bit of thought. He doesn't even know why.

Countess-and-Vicereine Cordelia Naismith Vorkosigan, looking every inch the Vor matron today in dark green embroidered with silver, is seated at a small table not far from the fireplace with a mug of hot cocoa.

Come say hi! She'll talk to anybody.

Colin is sitting very stiffly at a table and sipping hot chocolate again.

He wishes his chair wouldn't keep shifting, but he is used to it.
