Demeter has spent many of the past days in the infirmary watching over Carlotta and she's taking a small break over by the fire.

Her legs are curled up under her and she's staring into the fire, thinking about what Kore was like when she was that young though her hair was never quite that curly.

Tiny tag: Demeter, Charles Monroe

"It sounds like true contentment to me."

[ostro_goth]

Teja nods.

"It was," he says.

[wheatencrown]

"I'm so glad that you've both found it."

[ostro_goth]

"It is good to discover another that slowly, thoroughly, with nothing to reach," Teja says.

Pause.

"Would you still take us through your door to some place in Tuscany?" he then asks. "It would be good, now, to spend some days alone together, in a place that is home to neither."

[wheatencrown]

"Of course I would. If you wish I could arrange for you both to stay at a farmhouse unless you'd rather be in town."

[ostro_goth]

"Wherever the least questions would be raised," Teja says. "We might maybe find a way to go to a town, and do town things? I know not if Charlie is able to drive a car, or if they no longer exist in his time. I would attempt that which they call a motorcycle, as it is not that different from my speeder bike; but I would rather not make a fatal mistake with my Charlie riding pillion; he is alive still, and can die."

Pause.

"No questions about us being lovers; and no questions about us having two rooms, despite that. Not questions about us being lovers, having two rooms, and maybe using only one in one night or another."

[wheatencrown]

"Then I will find you a place within walking distance of the town but still with enough privacy so that you don't have to worry about anyone else."

[ostro_goth]

"Thank you," Teja says. "It would be truly a good thing for us to do!"

[wheatencrown]

"Give me a day or two to prepare things and then you two shall have a holiday."

[ostro_goth]

"There is no great hurry," Teja says, "and indeed, it would be a very good thing!"

[wheatencrown]

"Simply let me know when you wish to go."

[ostro_goth]

Teja nods.

"Thanks," he says again, quietly.

[wheatencrown]

"You're welcome."
