As the air parts, she simply appears near her preferred table. Moiraine is carrying an anthology of poetry again this evening, and has a small notebook as well.

The Aes Sedai settles at her table and opens her books, with an idle glance around the bar.

[Summary: Elaine brings tea at Dream's request and is convinced to take a short break, in which she and Moiraine discuss Elaine's family and background, with great canon similarity identified, and then move into feminism and finally discussion of their worlds. Morpheus appears, and Moiraine thanks him for his consideration, and then they are simply cute together for a while. Later, she and Roland discuss Cort's arrival and whether or not Roland should tell him things about the future; at some point later, Peter Pevensie asks her to Heal Caspian (although the healing is rejected in Caspian's thread). Afterwards, she returns to her table and is joined by Bran, who discusses poetry with her-- and is stunned by a plotty revelation. Meg drops by and tells Moiraine that she'll be joining the ranks-of-pseudo-immortal-mortals after her own death, and this is still under discussion, as the thread is slowtimed. Finally, Nita Callahan introduces herself and asks for help with a problem that concerns Asmodean, which immediately gets Moiraine's full attention... (Say it with me, folks: slowtimed.)]

She hesitates -- she's a little sick of people being in her head -- but nods.

Nita starts a little at the light, but holds out her hand and lays it in Moiraine's. . .

And as Moiraine Delves, the memory of the memory of Shayol Ghul is at the top of Nita's mind, the sound of screams and the voice of Shaitan still clear. A little deeper is worry and guilt about friends. Below that are confused, tangled memories of her mother his mother and hallucinations.

The link is buried in Nita's subconcious, a weave of Spirit and Fire that's become terribly tangled.

She hesitates again. "C-can you tell me what you plan on doing?"

". . .Okay. Now?"

"No, that's fine. Will unweaving the link get rid of these -- memories?"

She takes a deep breath, nods. "Okay."

She adds softly, in the Speech, "Thank you."

She takes a deep breath. Why am I nervous? She's helping.

. . .Is it him?


She shakes her head. This is no time to be figuring that sort of thing out. She takes another deep breath and tries to think of how it feels when she and Kit are talking mind-to-mind -- calm, open, trusting. . .

Eyes closed, she places her hands in Moiraine's and tries to relax.

Nita shivers at the power, but tries to keep body and mind still, afraid of distracting Moiraine.

Nita winces, and feels her heart pick up a little. It hurts -- some of it in the clean, healthy pain a wound feels as it heals; some of it a darker pain, like a wound being made.

She opens her eyes and takes a look around her own head.

"Better," and the fact surprises her. "I -- better. Thank you."

She looks away, and nods. "Fairly, yeah." She wonders briefly how much Moiraine saw.

"Since. . . since pretty soon after I was Bound, I think. Two months, maybe two and a half."

"A couple times, recently. We. . . didn't figure it out until recently." She blushes slightly.
