LILYMAID: Good even...might I help you?

Really? *This earns a small smile.* I think she would like that, Elaine. I know I'd like to see it.

I wish I could see her in the fire.

"I'm sure she will be..." Elaine casts about for a word, "...magnificent." She tries to stop crying, but it's hard, she's just heard about Tonks and Bill, and Jack is also leaving, and will die when he leaves the bar, and now Svava.

*Alanna blinks back her own tears and sighs.*

It's too bad she didn't take her drink tray with her. She was so good at inflicting bodily harm with it. *a pause* She will be wonderful.

Elaine nods. "I wish it were not so uncertain, her fate. It might be easier if there were no hope at all of her return."
the_lioness: (Finally some decent cover art)

I wish I could stand and fight beside her. *Alanna nods.* But I can not believe fate would be so cruel as to have Svava and Archie find each other, and then rip them apart forever. It just... *She shrugs helplessly.*

"Unfair," Elaine finishes. She dries her eyes. "I wish for happy endings for everyone...but I know so well that they do not end that way all the time."

No. No, they don't. *Alanna winces, patting Elaine's arm. She remains quiet for a minute.* I owe you lesson upon lesson, don't I, Elaine?

Elaine smiles a bit at this. "Aye, a few. Whenever you like, Alanna. I've kept up my practice."
the_lioness: (be afraid)

[personal profile] the_lioness 2005-06-20 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
*She smiles.* This week then. Tomorrow or Wednesday - whenever I see you first? I think it will do us both good.

"Maybe during the day, yes...I work the other two days, as well. I like it, though. It's a good job."

[personal profile] the_lioness 2005-06-20 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Perfect. *She smiles, studying Elaine.* Are you going to be alright?

[identity profile] maid-of-astolat.livejournal.com 2005-06-20 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"I think so." She rubs at her face. "I should get back to work, anyway."

*Alanna nods, hugging her around the shoulders again.* I will look for you. Take care, Elaine.

"And you as well, Alanna." And she returns the hug, gets up and looks around for other patrons to serve.
